Hi.
These last couple months have been incredibly awakening for me, and I just don't mean like now at 0300 and unable to sleep in anticipation of the daily savagely mendacious Twitter storm from our Incompetent-in-Chief. I mean on a deeper political scale than I have ever before felt it necessary to engage.
Nixon resigned on my way to my high school part-time job. That was the last time I felt this way. (had pencils been discovered yet way back then?)
We are many, the worried. With good reason. Our very varied ways of life and livelihoods are at stake with the Loon-in-Chief and his group of billionaires. Oh yeah, and his family. Nepotism returns in ways we have not witnessed since.... I can't recall. You?
Republican congress members loudly proclaim it's a travesty not to hold confirmation hearings on Gorsuch (for Supreme Court Justice for life) after they pulled their anti-Obama shit for YEARS and blocked Merrick Garland's hearings for double digit months. Ballsy bastards, aren't they?
Not a one of them should be re-elected.
On other topics, I am learning loom knitting and have many hats already to my credit. I started a merino wool blanket this week; 880 yards of a gorgeous brownish-purplish two-tone stunner of a color. Pics to follow when there's a bit to show you.
The girls are growing up so fast: six, seven and eight already and doing such fascinating activities: karate, writing, finger crocheting and learning to loom knit, reading and producing backyard plays, helping take care of the ten-month old who wants to run with the big kids already. He sure enjoyed today's sunshine out in the grass playing with flowers and CatCat.
I've crocheted a dozen pussy hats: sold a few, donated a few, wear a few. Had labels printed and sew one into each of my unique creations. I love the meme and feel such tremendous pride for the sea of pink, eared headgear I see at every public event these days.
May that misogynistic abuser get the message and may he see our hats in his disturbed dreams. I hope he's terrified of what he has generated with his loose mouth and looser morals & behavior. I hate that s.o.b. He's ruined so much so quickly....

My favorite sign of the current times won't load, so here:
First they came for the Muslims...
and we said,
"Not this time, Mother Fuckers!"
Amen.
