Hats off to you! I don't think I could do what you did. On the other hand, having a lot of people fixing things while you are taking care of the kids and trying to keep them safe would have its own downers, too.
Anyhow, so glad you could and did do all that! That's some feat to be proud of.

I wish you a speedy recovery from your knee replacements. I understand it’s a painful operation but worthwhile. I’ll be thinking of you on Monday. 😉🤞🍀☘️ Good luck, Lyn

I agree the cheetos aka the man who wants to be Hitler and Putin rolled into one, his ignorance will definitely have global impacts.

I've been getting as much as I can in order before my surgery on Monday, February 3rd. I'm having my right knee replaced followed my left shortly after. Writing didn't fit in for me either. Looking forward to seeing more of you in the months ahead.

In response to "New Year so far."

weather where I live is also unsettling. Took the dogs out for a walk yesterday had some sunshine but today is fog and rain on top of a couple feet of snow turning everything to slush.

Every year I look forward to something called January Thaw. This year we just had a new blizzard every couple days. If the thaw does not show up properly in February, the sap won't run properly from the trees less maple syrup probably. Anyway, forecast says sunshine tomorrow. If we have a freeze in the night all slush will turn to ice.

Watching grandchildren choose as they age is so interesting because society has changed so much since I was a child.

The feeling was amazing indeed. The first night was the scariest but after that I found so much joy in each task I tried. I've surprised myself on more than one occasion, Yes I can do anything I set my mind to doing.

I can’t say I’d be tempted to go camping on my own, so I think you’re very brave. It would have given you so much confidence knowing you succeeded. Afterwords you must have felt as if there was nothing you couldn’t do on your own.

In response to "All alone "

With the cold temperatures we've been having this far, I suspect that person wouldn't be leaving their house.

I don't know about you, but I've spent a week with no other contact, I found it very enlightening because I discovered how capable I was of doing things myself. This was after my divorce and my ex telling me that I would never go camping or kayaking without him, I was too stupid to do it on my own. I felt like I had a point to prove to myself. Unlike Hanks in the movie, in the back of my head I knew I could reach out and someone would come but I didn't give in I persevered and made it. I burned dinner once, over-turned my kayak once and the tent fell done on me the first night but ultimately I really enjoyed the silence.

I'm glad you're able to gather with your family. It's so hard to get everyone together these days. Hug that grandson tightly!

Yes it’s certainly an interesting time, but watching myself deteriorate each day is not something I relish.

Men

Written for Journalistic Intentions
Prompt: That’s what a man would say.

What’s the difference between the sexes
When it comes to points of view?
Where shall I start? The answer? Complex.
That’s the reply I give to you

Consider a journey in the car
To a place you’ve never been.
Suddenly you’ve gone too far,
And tempers begin to wear thin.

Will he stop and ask
A person for directions?
No! He wouldn’t bother with that task.
He’ll make his own selections.

Don’t tell a man about your worries,
He won’t listen to your voice
He’ll pat your hand, “Don’t worry, honey,”
And inundate you with advice.

Men! They can drive you almost crazy,
With their weird and different traits.
But, when you see the ways he
Looks at you with love. A smile he generates.

Rats with wings

Entry one for journalistic Intentions. Prompt “Oh would you just shut up? You're rats with wings!"

.Rats with wings you’ve been heard to call
The ubiquitous little pigeon.
I think that makes no sense at all.
I’d like to stand for the opposition.

Pigeons have existed for ten thousand years,
Long before cities and towns.
They covered the world, there were no frontiers.
They were free, and knew no bounds.

These mighty birds have been a boon to man.
Flying messengers are they,
Delivering missives throughout the lands,
Dodging storms and birds of prey.

So please don’t call them rats with wings,
They simply take an easy feed.
But have dined with emperors and kings.
So with your premise I’ve disagreed.
