I strive to be seen

Through your favorites’ screen

I rise up and greet

But no one wants to meet

My presence…for I am a weed

Started just like the others, from a seed

My form may not be your idea of pretty

As others grown here, but please take pity

On me and others you choose to despise

We all need a place to live our lives.

“A chunky grey staircase thrusts out from the side of a new office tower in Los Angeles, lunging towards a rail line before jerking back on itself and lurching up the building in jagged twists and turns. It crashes into a warped lattice of bands that wrap around the glassy hulk, swooping past corner windows that jut in and out like broken teeth. This is (W)rapper, “an outrageous creative office tower”, in the words of its leasing agents, set to “reawaken the Los Angeles skyline”. It is also the bombastic tombstone of a bygone era, a carbon-guzzling monument to a time when architectural ego trumped the interests of people and planet.”

“Norman Greenbaum’s 1969 hit, “Spirit in the Sky” is one of the most memorable songs of the classic rock era. Released as part of his 1969 album of the same name, “Spirit in the Sky” reached the top three on the Billboard charts, where it remained for 15 weeks, has remained quite popular in the decades since.” extrachill.com

1. Friends are spread out over the country but I consider bloggers friends from all over the world too. Here where I am now my daughter is my best friend.

2. I mingle.

3. Delivering flowers—a temp job on busy holidays.

4. Yes I can swim but since I’ve had the ostomy in 2015 I never do.

Gratitude this week is the same old same old- family😂
