it's another one of **those** days....

went out with the goal of getting gas and taking a walk.

did manage to get gas, but arriving at the park at 0745 was too late to get a parking spot. As was arriving at the next park at 0800 and the one after that at 0805.

So I figure I'll run errands.
What needs to be done?
Need to go to REI - start off to Roseville take another look at the directions and they don't open until 1000.

Since I only got 4 hours of sleep last night I'm taking a nap before it gets too hot and upon waking up I will declare it Thursday v2.0 and hope for better results.

(I was aiming for smaller parks where I could still walk ~1 mile and not have to deal with tons of people)

[I have to deal with people tonight 🤮 ]

@SrRochardBunson
We need somebody to print up something like “red cards”

But for law enforcement/military people.

One side should be the oath with “support and defend the constitution of the United States” in BOLD.

Then on the reverse side?
Something like:
You do not have to carry out illegal orders (or orders that contradict your oath -whatever) and then have the support and assistance number/url that’s been floating around on the internet the past few days.

Print them on business cards - something small so they can be discreetly passed around or placed on vehicles.

it can't be good when you have been awake for only 3 hours and you are ready to go back to bed.

outside plants watered
1 load of laundry done
kitchen straightened
war with printer finally won

i'm exhausted...

here's your next project!

@ai6yr lol
stop it...
I was just thinking this evening that I need to go to the thrift store and buy a couple of basic cookbooks

@ai6yr
yeah I had a few basic ones that I got rid of due to no space but.... yyyyyeah.....

Do we still do #FootpathFriday ?
Also #bloomscrolling i guess 🤷🏻♀️

The purple flowers along the sides of the trail are pretty vetching 🤪

For about 20+ years now I’ve been saying “greed is going to kill us all”

I wish I could stop believing that.

@camless @ai6yr

this was interesting

OMG
what is with these internet courses without closed captioning options.

Let me take 2 minutes to "read" the transcript and then let your dippy contrived narrative play on, muted in the background, while I wander off to do something more worthwhile with my time.

@ai6yr some how I get the feeling that if people would Wile E Coyote tunnels on barriers or walls; a swasticar would drive right into it.

Ugh made a special trip out to
1 take a walk at the vernal pools (which shares a parking lot with the baseball fields so there was no parking

2. Go by the thrift store and see if the had any toy cars- no but they had some blocks for cheap

3. Drop some items off at the station - which I apparently didn’t realize I had left at home

4. Do I even *try* to go to Costco?

Have some peace and quiet amongst the chaos.

Another good place for people with mobility issues is the Nimbus Fish Hatchery - lots to look at and most is accessible to wheelchairs walkers and strollers

Sometimes you can feed the fish in the runs.

ok, my lazy choice to not leave was a good one - cuz now it's raining.

Definitely time for a nap.

@ai6yr

Ummmmm I haz got questions…..

Today was difficult.
My #Do1Thing was simply updating our "Until Help Arrives" binders.

We teach the class once a year and have some visuals that needed to be updated 🤷♀️

https://community.fema.gov/PreparednessCommunity/s/until-help-arrives?language=en_US

so, and I can't believe I have to type this:
the "last time" we had a hashtag over at the bad place
#Do1Thing
where people would post the one thing they did that day to fight the orange terror

Maybe we restart #Do1Thing and broaden its scope to include simple "random acts of kindness"

So today you helped a little old lady across the street? You let a car merge on the freeway? Good for you! One Random Act of Kindness for you.

Did you write your congressperson?
Send money to a worthy cause?
Punch a fascist?
Good for you!

Just #Do1Thing

Today I might look through my thank you cards and send something to Harris. Not sure I can coherently express my admiration and gratitude yet, but I'll think on it.

What will *you* do?
