I hope Charmion is wearing a dust mask when needed and lifting with her legs, assuming the truck was emptied and work continues and some furniture is being staged. Is the family there to assist with all of this? One hopes so!

The anxiety is growing as American politics continue to show the ugly side of a vocal minority. Too many people are staying in their comfortable silos not pushing back, so today I'm writing letters and will sign up for a couple of events then move on and take deep breaths to keep the PMR at bay. Better to have a dose of stress and get it over with than letting it simmer daily.

We have another ozone action day today but I'll mask up and step out for a few minutes at a time to get some of the worst of the tall grass in the front. So many things to do around here. At least with the part-time job changing I can clump together the work so it doesn't stretch out a couple of hours each day. It'll be a few hours a couple of days now, and I must push myself away from the computer and work around the house.
