Tuesday…
Can you hear me drumming my fingers on the desk? Yes…it is annoying!
How about a bit of a rambling post today?
We only have 399 hours remaining of intelligence, grace, and dignity in the White House before the circus comes to town.
I am in the Resistance Camp and I have been girding my loins, as it were. Kym has been sharing weekly ideas that are awesome! The Wall of Us had some great ideas this week. Easy things. Really. Go sign up!
In the same resistance vein, I cannot stress how vital supporting news media has become. I signed up for a digital subscription of the Washington Post and it made me insanely happy to read that they had recently hired more than five dozen journalists. I have been struggling to find a news balance in the sea of media that seems to be okay with giving time to person who believes lies are the truth. It makes me feel like my little support is helping in the fight!
How many of you know about Give Your Amazon Box New Life? Me either, but this could come in very handy for my organization resolution! (Additional partners can be found here)
Finally, and on a brighter note – my Paperwhites have started blooming! Just one slender stalk, but there are buds of promise on the fellow bulbs!
Happy Re-entry Tuesday, everyone!
“Buds of promise.” Love that!!
Good stuff in this post! My nearest Goodwill is an hour away so I don’t go as often as I should, but Amazon is going to change that for me. Hooray for your paperwhites! Off to check out the Washington Post … Thanks!
My paperwhites bloomed today, too! Thanks for the link for Wall Of Us, I’m going to check that out.
Thanks for the links. I came back to the office to find two blooms on my orchids and lots more blossoms. Even in the darkness, there is light.
Buds. Lots more buds. Duh.
I’m an oddity as I order very little from Amazon, but I dropped off a bunch of stuff at Goodwill yesterday as they’re on my usual route. Looking forward to seeing more of your paperwhites!
I’ve signed up for Washington Post newsletters – started getting them last summer… I do love knowing what’s really going on, but there are some days I can only read the headings and I put the email right into the trash. For taking action, I signed up for Daily Action – I get a text every business day with ONE quick action to take. Thanks to that, I’ve called my senator and my congressman for the first time ever! (you can text DAILY to 228466 to sign up – it’s really easy!) – and p.s. love the paperwhites. January blooms are a beautiful thing!
Buds of promise! Love. (I think we’re going to be very busy this year!)
