For farmer Katie who grew me turnips, greens with red stripes and scallions in the hoop house. Harvested a week ago. In January in CT. That’s the kind of talent that will keep you alive. Painting makes me feel I’m alive.
When migrants arrived Xmas Eve, Vice President Harris and the Second Gentleman assured they were quickly cared for in a dignified way. Her staff helped. And the DC churches and NGOs stepped up for them. Grace and kindness. A sacrifice from their holiday and they have our thanks.
So tiny little Magnolia is on her way by ambulance to Grand Rapids for surgery on her GI tract. I’m sure she’ll do well but please ask the universe for good luck for her and her parents.

Unbelievable. Let’s never forget this. Abandoned an honest need from CA after forest fires, death and homes destroyed. Can never happen again. Does he think he’s gonna blackmail us into voting for him? That won’t happened
Today Pres. Biden led continued evacuation of Afghanistan, avoiding more terror attacks in Kabul, taking out ISIS-K planners in a drone attack, and planning for a Cat 4 hurricane in covid-struck New Orleans. I wish him strength and wisdom in these challenging times.
Stephen Colbert tore into Rep. Gary Palmer (R-Ala.) for hailing government funds his district will receive from the bipartisan infrastructure package signed into law by President Joe Biden this week. One slight problem. Palmer voted against it.

It’s too late for this. We don’t believe him any more. And his accordion hands always accompany his most bodacious lies. And he owns stock in one of these medicines so he’s got a conflict of interest and he hawking his wares. We’re done with believing anything he says.

says the military should be widely read. He wants to understand white rage and what lead white people to attack the Capitol and try to overtake our government. He wants to know why people insult our military by calling them “woke.” He was mad.
My oldest grandson watched the Biden speech with his mom. His reaction:”Mom, if 1 in 7 kids don’t have enough food, that means 2 kids in my class don’t have enough to eat.” He’s 9. Don’t tell me adults don’t understand that children are hungry.
U.S. Supreme Court Unanimously Sides with Transgender Refugee, Affirming Her Identity in Historic Ruling - People. Kudos to Judge Ketanji Brown, who negotiated this landmark ruling!
Have you seen old people missing teeth? It’s not bc they don’t care. It hurts to lose a tooth and to eat without it. It’s bc they are too poor to afford dental care. Medical care should include dental, hearing, and eye care. It will keep the elderly independent longer and save $
Celebrating with grandson. He hates cakes and loves penguins. So I made him a giant chocolate chip cookie and decorated with a penguin scene. He liked it!
I gave a small donation for rides to the polls. If you are able, please consider it. If not, maybe another time will work for you. And also consider a retweet?
NEWS: We're trying to provide an additional $35,000 in rides to the polls in the next 24 hours to ensure no one who needs a free ride can't get one. Transportation is a major problem in urban areas. You can help get it done with a retweet & small donation.

Drug addiction is a medical condition. Bipolar is a medical condition. If we treated them that way, people would suffer less. And be treated more. Like your sister. Only the biggest hearts love unconditionally. I wish peace for her restless soul.
Older grandson got 99 on his math test on long division. All answers correct. One point off for not showing his work. Why did he not show his work? Because he was doing it in his head.
Daughter in France is so happy she was accepted at a ceramics residency program at A.I.R. Vallauris near Cannes. 6-week residency and then a show. The town is famous for hundreds of years of ceramic artistry including hosting Picasso and Cezanne for their ceramic periods.
Making Ben’s birthday cake! He’s 97.I’m also making him a cinnamon coffeecake as a gift. Mr W thinks he’ll eat it all and it’s not healthy. I think he should have the whole cake fed to him by an intelligent, naked woman on his lap since he’s 97. But I can only arrange the cake😂
Our Bridgeport CT Goodwill just got $500k federal Dept of Labor grant to help homeless vets get jobs and housing. It’s for 3 years. They interviewed a vet who got a job and housing last round; his apt is nice and he’s still working. He had a big grin on his face. Proud to see it
Republican official who claimed 2020 election was stolen voted illegally nine times, judge says - MSNBC. Why not 5 years in jail like the Black woman in TX?

on painting snow! Intense learning and so inspiring! Please take a closer look
A very good friend here pointed out how this looks very … Georgia O’Keefe. A lovely compliment. Then I thought more. And I can’t unsee it lol. A nice peach one next?
I know I’m being a bad Nana reading this with grands (age 9 and 12) but omg it’s hilarious! We were practically rolling on the floor in BN. Look at the name of this bird😂
Please don’t “both-sides” me on the attack on Speaker Pelosi’s husband. Trump unleashed the demon Violence and his helpers amplified it. Yes there’s spillover. Because a demon unleashed is not controlled. But it’s not both sides.
President Biden was eating pizza at the table with a bunch of young soldiers close to the border in Poland. He had his hand on their shoulder, shook hands looking them in the eyes. It’s respectful touching and genuine.
I’m having a v bad time with my knee. Missed a visit to winery yesterday. Woke up in bad shape. Going to ER soon. Will test the system and let you know. 😅
My good friend Yolanda has permanent custody of her 2 granddaughters. She cleans houses to support them all and owns her own home and car. The girls get free breakfast and lunch at school. That really helps Yolanda. I want to thank everyone for supporting this program!
I’m sick again, a little storm of sinus and bronchitis and asthma. It’s not Covid so I got a little boost from knowing that. But I get so sick I wonder how I will get my energy back. Then I remember it seems to just come back. Best not to worry
Husband watches Pres. Biden present awards for military service. He always chokes up. Yesterday, I was deadheading flowers in the sun. He decided I was getting a sunburn and went to get a heavy umbrella, standing beside me for shade until I finished. That’s it in husband news 💗
After an outpatient treatment in France, you get bottled water, hot beverage, salad, fruit salad with frontage blanc, brioche with speculoos, and a napkin. I am used to graham crackers and apple juice.
Whatever may be challenging you today or whatever may be hard, I hope my quiet little woodland scene brings you some peace and calm. Every little part of the world that has life has some beauty.
McCarthy threatening AG Garland in McCarthy’s first statement about the search warrant tells you everything you need to know about the GQP. And about the Nov. election.

Our good friend was diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer. His first doctor was too blunt. It kept our friend from exploring therapies that might have given him more time. It was not helpful at all.
I know Beto swore a doozy but come on if a politician doesn’t feel strongly enuf to curse about some of this stuff, who wants them?! What good will they be? I want some passion!
