Take a read, my liberal friends, especially those of you born at or before 1955 and see if you don’t see how this rings true. And let me lecture you: the ends do NOT justify the means just because you are in power and you believe it’s ok to do these things because they are issues you agree with.
If you think that, you have no regard for freedom — and never did.
The dissenters were often right back then and the dissenters now are right again-only this time, the establishment is much more dangerous.
I beseech you to read that whole article.
It’s Monday and my family is headed back to Green Bay–a very sad situation since I can no longer visit there. Even a month seems an eternity when who knows the situation then.
My little grandson slept with his Nana Lynn — “just us two.” And we watched the Polar Express repeatedly much of the night.
We cooked fabulous rack of lamb, to-die-for roast duck with heavenly crispy skin, and football day chili as we watched Tom Brady do his thing.
So just laundry and settling the house, running a vacuum cleaner, dishes, trips to the curbside grocery store, post office. We have heard from the refinancing folks — waiting on an appraisal, the reverse mortgage company, and all. Depending on the outcome, a new affordable refrigerator and two very affordable faux leather couches — for now, and then two new bedrooms in the basement to accommodate our visitors we have often–something my husband will do himself, also very affordable.
Distractions.
Happy Monday. So here are the pictures of the new bathroom paintjob — and all my ducks in a row:
I love words so I write them. I’ve been doing that since I was old enough to read. I am a published literary writer and I was an adjunct English professor at Northern Michigan University for many years. I write and live and love off the grid on 35 acres and a trout stream in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula with my son, Joshua, who has Down Syndrome, and with an English Shepherd dog named Maggie, and with my husband when he can make it here which isn’t often. This blog started out being about my work, and it will continue to be. ( I’m working on a novel about premonitions and dreams.) But this blog is also about living off the grid and about my experimentation with diet—most recently the Carnivore Diet. I started on the Ketogenic diet, but have moved into Carnivore. How long, I don’t know. But I’ve become interest in the effects of diet on not just my health, but on creativity. And I’m interested in the effects of the diet on my dreams.
Ah, dreams... The day before my son was born, my mother “dreamed” or was told my son would have Down Syndrome, something she told my brother ahead of time. I’ve never known what to make of that. So I’m interested in prophetic dreams, lucid dreaming, creativity and dreams, night terrors. Who isn't interested in that? I’m interested in Freud (more Jung) and Einstein’s theories of time and how their ideas inform my dreams. I’m interested in mining a deeper relationship with a dream world not confined to daytime experiences, and how the night might inform a more fully imagined daytime “reality.” And vice-versa. Which is the dream?? I’m exploring dreams of all sorts. Come explore with me…
