I didn’t fall asleep until 6:00 this morning. I slept till 10:00 so got four hours of sleep. Surprisingly I haven’t felt too tired today,
I went to Emporia and met Tagen for lunch. It is always a treat to spend time with him. He still is a bit up in the air about his plans. We shall see what he decides to do.
I went through the car wash and then came home. Couldn’t think of any errands I needed to take care of while I was in town.
Went to the bank in Cottonwood Falls and cashed in my loose change bowl. Had over $60 in change in it. I also converted some $100 bills into $20.
I remembered to go to city hall and get new dog tags for Sophia and Roxy. Now I need to remember to put them on their collars.
I sent a note to the doctor I saw last week about my prolapse. She was to refer me to a surgeon in Wichita and I haven’t heard anything yet. So far they haven’t responded to my note. Wonder why these things seem to be so hard?
I haven’t done much else today. I may go out and take a long walk this evening. It has been a beautiful day and I need to get out and enjoy it a bit.
No plans for tomorrow. The CD that I need to take care of renews tomorrow but I have ten calendar days to take care of it. I’ll see if I feel like going back to Emporia tomorrow. I do have to go to town later this week to get groceries for the meals I will be fixing next week when Kathy’s kids are here. They aren’t coming until a week from today so have plenty of time to go get them. I may even wait until Sunday so everything will be fresh.
I keep reading the news about the situation in LA. Man, it sure depends on where you get your news as to what you read and hear. Both sides seem to be telling different stories. Guessing the truth is somewhere out there but main stream media doesn’t seem to be able to sort it all out. Hearing reports about undocumented people being picked up here in Kansas. I wonder if they are being given their due process. So many are in the process of getting documented but that process is both expensive and cumbersome. Our immigration laws are so broken. I do wonder what I would do if I was in their shoes and had to flee my home country due to violence and corruption. Beginning to think I may have to flee my home country due to violence and corruption. Would I worry if I didn’t have the proper documentation if I decide to flee? The harm humans can do to other humans is overwhelming sad. Not sure why we are so afraid of each other.
My heart aches tonight for all people. Fear and chaos seem to be the rule of the day. I really wonder what the end game to all this will be. I know love will prevail but how far down the rabbit hole does society have to go before we remember love is the answer. I keep reminding myself my job is to stay above neutral and radiate all the love I have outward. I don’t have to be concerned where and how it goes I just know with every fiber of my being that it is important I do so. It doesn’t feel like it is enough but what else can a person do?
I wish the ballgame I am going to was on a different date. I really am feeling the need to go protest. However, family comes first. I will find a protest in another week or so to go to. Maybe I need to organize another one here in Cottonwood Falls.
Grateful for the mild temperature today, grateful for what sleep I did get, and grateful to know that love will win.
