Cats and kings and other things

we'll come out of this eventually;  diminished in some ways,  uplifted in others.  There will be less of us, and perhaps the loudest deniers will have gone the way of most skeptics.  One can only hope.  Some people seem to thrive on denial of anything they can't see or touch or smell, and yet those are the very ones who try to connect with the god of their choosing.   

It doesnt have to make sense, it just is.


And a cat picture. Of course.  He likes it up there on the kitchen roof, the view is better,  he said. 

Keep safe, wear the damn mask.  We're all we've got.

  1. I am trying to stay safe and keep at home but not everyone can do that. It seems the mask is our only defense and why people won’t use them is beyond me.

    1. I don't get it either. And then you talk to some of them and understand why. Some of them are convinced that God will protect them. Some are convinced that it's all a hoax. Some are pointing with pride at Trump and saying, 'if it's so dangerous, why isn't HE wearing one?"
      and some 'can't breathe' or feel like they're suffocating.

      'Tis a strange world we live in. When I see the unmasked, and the huggers, I think, "Darwin award, comin' up"

      In this state we so far seem to be doing well. We are a cautious bunch, and most of our cities are well separated, basically one large city per county, if any. And the deaths we do get are almnost totally among the elderly in nursing homes.

      I have a built in resistance to wearing a mask, too, but if I go out, I wear one. So does my husband.
