The more I watch Dateline, the more I am glad I’m not partnered up with anyone in any kind of romantic situation. Lordy, Lordy.
In terms of the pandemic, I’m not yet vaccinated. I still don’t hug my friends. It feels so strange. When we can hug again, it is going to feel like sex.
The positive news I have is I received a beautiful anthology, After the Clouds, the Sun, with two of
my poems in it. My poems are “Living in
Peace” and “Rotary Phone.” http://roguescholars.com/
Then I received a link to the online journal, Home Planet News. I have four poems in there – “With women and children on the street …,” “Not For Me,” “’Wear a smile’, she said,” and “Hey.”

I’ve done a significant amount of decluttering and that is always a good thing. More is waiting for me. I look forward to the day I am done with that.
In the past month and a half, three people sent me money, two stores extended me credit, and my long-time friend Judy gave me bags of food and household products. “Food” includes wine. I can’t even describe how I feel. Grateful, blessed, and shocked begins it, I guess.
Sometimes I watch youtube videos of things I’ve done to remind myself of things I’ve done. This one was fun. A stretch for me, since I was supposed to be a Dominican woman. I don’t know that I was convincing of that, but my co-actor kept telling me that many American-born Latinas/os don’t speak Spanish well. The best for me was when the writer was in the audience and told me she thought I did a great job. The play was about her sister, and she felt I captured that character. This video is the dress rehearsal, so it wasn’t filled with actual audience. Still, I enjoyed watching it. It’s less than ten minutes.
Unconditional love to CGG-M! ❤❤❤
