Sandy dregs in rivulet forms
Reaching ever further to enclose the silver liquid
Patterns disturb the glassed water, though
Only the clouds know the secrets held by the dunes.

She tied a ribbon around her fence post to let everyone know she is now five years cancer free! Since face to face visits were not possible, her friends were waiting for her news and this is how she told them. Of course she also did a happy dance all the way to the post and back to her home.

Shield, Chatter, Silenced
A typical day in the nursing home breakfast room. A call for the room to be silenced as the Reverend Blighty uttered a short prayer, and then the chatter began. Some of the residents had forgotten their uppers and had to cover their mouths while eating. Their table companions had to shield their eyes.

For some reason, this saying just came to me this morning:

Had to take another gander at my beautiful granddaughter as WP acting up again, had to post another screenshot.

It permeates the world
Slithering in and around your mind
Hate, discrimination, distaste
Turning neighbor against neighbor
It smothers love and communication
It hovers till you rinse it off
It takes a hard pelting rain, even a hailstorm
To diffuse it, rid your surroundings
Freshen your ideas and perceptions
Accept responsibility for your actions
Try to do better, teach your children to do the same
Without the storm there will be no change,
And no hope for togetherness as a people.

Blooey! That’s what! I finally just screenshot my Sunday Whirl post. Everything is jumping around, refusing to load, and when I push publish, it disappears and goes to the iPad icon screen. What’s up with that? I’ll see what happens after I finish composing here. Anymore, will I have to screenshot my posts? What a pita!
It started out well today, woke up early, plenty of time to get ready for my CT scan and X-ray appointments. Wore my mask, rolled in to find half the people not wearing masks. Even before the virus this lab has a sign saying to stay behind it so you’re not invading a person’s privacy. Not today, I had someone right behind me, one coming up beside me and no masks.
Huffing up my glasses behind the mask I was pissed. I checked in and sat away from everyone else. People who had a mask such as the older couple pushing up behind me just wore them around their neck. Did they expect it to quickly move up by itself if it spotted virus germs? Good heavens!
After I sat down I called the desk and said why am I sitting in a waiting room full of people wearing no masks? She said, oh, I’ll tend to it and came out handing out masks. One lady refused to wear it and went to the bathroom. There’s a large sign on the door saying you are required to wear one. No wonder our WY cases are spiking now. And rules? Following rules in this case is necessary to protect yourself and others! 😳🙄😤
Another day, another rant. I did see a beautiful grove of aspen trees today. I guess it was worth it. And here’s a reason to smile. Granddaughter and friend chillin’ in NJ:
Such a simple sight
Seen beside your feet
Step aside, cause no harm, for
Nature is offering a gift.

Sweet ice cream licks
Tart lemonade puckers
Rough sandy toes
Smooth oiled skin
Fragrant calm breezes
Lightning striking clouds
Who doesn’t love summer?
