Above is a link to BEAMZ and the news that you will not get anywhere. If you are curious about what is happening for the next ten years or so re:China/ Russia/ USA/ tyranny and how things work , the tiny video dated Oct . 26 is informative on many levels, no need to embiggen , just listen.
On my way to Janet's to celebrate A grandchild being born in December- a ZOOM baby shower. Through my windshield the trees are fully lit with autumn. Rain has come- do not expect it to leave until July...
Cubby is King.
Through Janet's window, glass art work on the sill. Janet and I did a workshop when the kids were in middle school , each making a framed piece. Janet's is far more interesting than the one that I made. Mine just looks like broken glass stuck together...
Janet made a table of treats and tea for the three of us at her computer. We played games. Choosing baby names, the best ones came from the lad in Vancouver BC who works with children- new on the BC market names !
All in all a wonderful cosy day at Janet's. After the party ended I stayed with Janet and we talked for three more hours. We covered a lot of ground but NO politics because really, what is the point? There is a grandchild in the wings so that is a cheerful focus. Challenge to be sure, but you know, babies are still going to happen regardless of world conditions and China and climate change.
Advice from the video, take your money and run (losing big cash in stocks from my last report. I tend to take my money and stuff it in the mattress, Dennis stays, as he has always done)- buy new products today , like Iphone, Ipad, stuff where China has a monopoly- tomorrow you will not be able to afford them. Ev parts and batteries are going to be iffy also. However- do we really needs these "things"? Not really, firewood might be more advantageous. And a store of potatoes...
Mygod, it's beautiful there.
ReplyDeleteIt is!
DeleteI love Janet's glass art! I think you should show us yours, too.
ReplyDeleteIt is not as cool as janet's
DeleteOne of my oldest friends texted me this morning with a very short video of his just-born newest grandchild. Life. And such perfection wrapped in hope and love.
ReplyDeleteI can't deal with the rest any more.
Nothing like a fresh baby!!!
DeleteI can’t deal with politics anymore either. People used to care about being decent (or at least appearing to be) but now they seem to revel in their assholiness and meanness. A new baby and nature are just what we need to counter the constant despair. Artwork, too, reminds us that we are still capable of creating great beauty. Much love.

China is scary. Better to be warned than to be surprised!
DeleteWe are definitely living in scary times. The only balance is beauty. Thank you for sharing the beauty you see there and the sweet news of new babies.
ReplyDeleteYes, Robin is right. It's Hooray, Robin.
ReplyDeleteFirewood yes, and stock up on matches and cigarette lighters, so you can light the fires to cook the potatoes. and buy books, so you can still read when TV is no longer available.
ReplyDeleteA new grandchild for Janet? I'm curious as to whether a PC name will be chosen or something more traditional.
Flint and stone! Wool and fur!
DeleteWe're finally getting a nice slow steady rain. We may have to turn our backs on this country, this election is scary, form communes again, go off grid, hide.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great day at Janet's -- and Cubby visit too!
