Apropos of nothing, remembering a quote from movie The Big Chill, American spelling. “Don't knock rationalization; where would we be without it? I don't know anyone who could get through the day without two or three juicy rationalizations. They're more important than sex.”

I’m thinking of some Quaker colleagues in the US, how they’d be feeling right now. One was heavily involved in assisting draft resisters in the Vietnam war. Another used to march with Dr Martin Luther King, Jnr, was arrested with him and his supporters, fasted in gaol with him. No way they’re going to take the next 4 years lying down.

US election is between Harris and J D Vance. You think Vance will let Trump, if he wins, last any distance?

@georgetakei This gave me the biggest laugh!

Teeny tiny cutting of thyme is doing all right. Watering it every day. Neighbour who is a genius gardener showed me a patch of his garden next to mine. I can plant things there and he will water them. Plans now for parsley seeds.

Curved area in front I initially thought was roadway but has chairs and tables. (Alt text won’t let me edit)

Only one more week of eye drops after cataract surgery. Phew! The end is in sight, literally. I see the eye specialist in 2 weeks.

@bmacDonald94 @bruno_j_navarro Cleaning regime obviously not thorough.

@bruno_j_navarro @bmacDonald94 What? So many questions

After a few days of scratch meals, I have made a big batch of chicken, wild rice and buckwheat soup.

Some #Mosstodon and what the hell is that?

@bmacDonald94 I have a box of laundry detergent arriving in grocery order, so it’ll be a while before I need anything else. 🙏

@bmacDonald94 Which brand?

Doing grocery order. Difficulty locating laundry detergent powder (I don’t buy liquid detergent, don’t want to pay for extra water). Seems like they are moving towards all CAPSULES. No thank you.
