Daily Life Meanders On

[days_unfolding]

Lily's affection is a little self-serving. She is very lovey-dovey when she wants food. Oliver, on the other hand, likes snuggles.

Woke up at 9:30 AM.

I bought a Black and Decker drill on Amazon plus screwdriver bits. I also signed up for an Udemy course on using a drill. Might as well learn to use it right!

The dogs don’t want to come in. Sigh. I really want to take a nap.

I’ve decided that I want “Time to Say Goodbye” played at my memorial service. (I’ve been planning it and will put instructions in my NokBox.) That song has been haunting me since the Olympics. And it has Italian in it!

Finally got the dogs in and fed us all. Nap time. Gracie: Bark bark bark bark. (Cat cat cat cat!) Me: Gracie, yes I know. Shut up!

Bella likes the larger Milkbones. I was leaving the box open for her to get them at will, but she’s eating too many of them. I need to stash them away. Somewhere. It’s a big box.

Hmm. I’m looking at Grand Prairie Friends for volunteering. But I need to wait and see if I hear back from the Humane Society and Park District before applying for something else.

Ate lunch. AccuWeather says that rain will start in two minutes. I want another nap. Overslept my nap.

I’m in shock over the strikes on Iran. We’ve messed with Iran before, and that didn’t go well, so let’s do it again! Plus, what happened with consulting with Congress? We already know that Trump thinks that he can do whatever whenever, but this is the most serious thing yet. (I had to dig for my outrage though because I mostly feel numb. My mom would be screaming though.)

Fed us all. Daily life meanders on. I want to go to bed early.

Go you!

That's a great idea.

>>I’ve decided that I want “Time to Say Goodbye” played at my memorial service.<<

Very apt.

>> Hmm. I’m looking at Grand Prairie Friends for volunteering. <<

Yay! :D

>> But I need to wait and see if I hear back from the Humane Society and Park District before applying for something else. <<

Sensible. Check if there are one-day opportunities. Down here there are weeding days, seed-gathering days, and so on. It's a lot easier to fit in a one-day event than a regular commitment.

>>AccuWeather says that rain will start in two minutes.<<

Yeah, it rained here this afternoon and into the evening, but has stopped now.

>> I’m in shock over the strikes on Iran. <<

I'm not. It fits the trend of dumpster fire government.

>> We’ve messed with Iran before, and that didn’t go well, so let’s do it again! <<

He's so stupid that he does not understand why it's a bad idea to punch the Tar Baby.

>> Plus, what happened with consulting with Congress? We already know that Trump thinks that he can do whatever whenever,<<

He doesn't have to obey the law, because people rarely hold him accountable for his actions. So he does whatever he wants.

>> but this is the most serious thing yet.

I think invading Venezuela to kidnap people was worse, and a greater violation of interntional law. Bombing people we don't like is sadly common.

Today I set out more water jug greenhouses, this time with wildflower blends. I also rescued a bunch of volunteer daffodils from the parking lot and moved them elsewhere. I still need to do the snowdrops though. The world may be a wreck, but at least I can look after my little corner of it.
