Today

 

Its Sunday.  We have had Miss Sweetums for the last couple of days, in that Stephanie and Andrew have been out of town.  We went to the Madison Heights nature center to enjoy the sunny and temperate day.  I need to work on my core strength.  I found myself leaning forward as I walked and struggling to retain my balance.  This leaning problem caused me to fall a couple of times, with disastrous results.  

I watched the first three episodes of "The Handmaids Tale" having been a devoted viewer since the show came on in 2017.  Its dystopian view of the future society always fascinated me.  The presentation of America as a theocracy is a terrifying prospect.  When the show premiered, Mike Pence was the Vice President.  I could only see it as his view of the world.  Coming back after nearly 3 years, gave me the experience of returning to a book put down long ago.  Lo and below, I am in the same spot and having the same feelings.  This time,  however, the females have broke the shackles of oppression and are bravely fighting back.  For me, it is good to see tough,  courageous women fighting back.

Some stuff planned for today, a trip to Trader Joes, cleaning and a quick cut on the front lawn.  Did the backyard yesterday and aside from some aches and pains it felt good to be moving again.

thats it
