To every woman on this day may you be seen and heard. May your struggles and burdens be shared. May your love, spirit, and light be felt all around and be an inspiration. Without women of all types, the world is not the same. Let your labor and contributions be compensated fairly and equally. Keep shattering glass ceilings of all types. It’s your world too. I salute you all today good people.
(Note: To the Transgender women out there you are a part of this in how you live your truth).
It’s wonderful to ask someone if they are OK. Really. Are you OK good people?
I am so glad to finally be home after this pretty crazy Saturday. I got up and made breakfast for the Mrs. and me and later went to Walmart to get a new car battery and to get an oil change. Being in Walmart during COVID is interesting. It’s been a while since I have people watched and I will tell you there were a few folks who didn’t know how to wear a mask properly. As I waited I had a Subway sandwich. It made the time go by a little faster. It appears I need some new tires eventually but that will have to wait a while.
After Walmart, I went to check on my mom. And did a few things for her. Then made my way to the grocery store to pick up a few things and as I tried to start my car it wouldn’t start which was frustrating because I just had a new battery put in. Well, I got roadside assistance to come give it a tow to my preferred garage to get it fixed. My very wonderful Mrs. came to rescue me so we could go home to resume our evening after waiting for the tow truck to come.
My friends, I am glad to be home. It’s been one interesting day. One thing I can say is that other folks have probably had it much worse so they should know I see them in a way. Did I mention I am tired after all this?
Today I was looking at my blog and I discovered I haven’t written a long-form post in awhile. Usually, my posts are short and concise because I am not a prolific writer. Sure there is plenty to discuss in the world but maybe there is too much to chose from. It’s my goal to chronicle and curate the sacred, serious, and silly things going on in my head.
Sometimes that means a picture, a video, a quote, or other sorts of media that can get my point of view across. Paying attention to stuff can be the best inspiration for my blog posts and I do hope they are interesting or at least tolerable to the reader. I do try to be aware of the fluid attention span of those who visit.
I enjoy stringing words together to form sentences like the next person but sometimes it can be tedious to write for writing’s sake. I do have a post about talking rattling around in my head and the irony there is that I am going to write about it. Let’s see how that goes.
This post is not even as long as some I come across so you can see what I am talking about here.
All any of us can do is to keep on blogging, keep on writing, keep on posting. As in life, we have to keep on keeping on.
A much needed haircut. It does feel better shorter. COVID does disrupt the normal routines of life like self care and enhanced grooming.
Even when you work from home you still get excited for Fridays. Have a great weekend ahead good people.
