Deer One

Yesterday, as I took a walk, a turned a corner, and what should appear, but a little fawn deer🦌 right on the sidewalk! I talked to it softly, and tried to take a picture. 📸 He put his little head down to the ground, but as I was trying to focus in on him and take a picture, I think my phone📞spooked him. He bolted across the street and into the woods. So today, I looked in a book called Spirits of the Earth. All I remember is meeting up with a deer is a good omen, 🌝 and maybe the full moon is too.

God Knows Anyway

You know, this pandemic kind of took prayer down to a minimum. I couldn't explain it until I thought of an analogy. The people on the Titanic could only seem to repeat the Psalms (if they knew them) or sing, "Nearer My God to Thee". It's like if a Tsunami hits, do you have all your ducks in a row? (i.e. prayers lined up) But on the brighter side, I combed through the number of blessings that have occurred since, and it was amazing! So, yeah, we're not forgotten, even if for the time being, we're so shocked, we're speechless.

Reading According to an Elementary School Kid

Now, I remember what occurred to me at Meijer's today. I stopped to look at the signs. Then, I thought how my friend, Jane called me up when we were in high school and read something I wrote in elementary school that she found. It was on the importance of reading. I remember how she read to me how I wrote, "You wouldn't even know what was in the cans of food if you didn't know how to read, and then, you'd go to a parade in town, and you wouldn't know what the signs said in the parade": typical elementary concepts. Well, that's what occurred to me at Meijer's as I read the signs about most bottles and cans wouldn't be able to be deposited, and it's a REQUIREMENT to wear masks and keep social distance, etc. I thought about how even a grade school kid like me knew the importance of READING! No, you don't look at the faces of a prez and vice prez who don't read (especially, science). You take the individual responsibility to do it yourself and follow through.

Since I was often dealing with small children in creative dramatics, I decided at the outset, to have them do a cooperation exercise, sometimes pitching a tent, playing basketball, etc. ⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♀️ Through improv, we demonstrated by contrast, how much more fun the game was or how much more smoothly the task was completed if everyone cooperated. So, maybe as the governor clamps down on the businesses, the anti-maskers 😷 will begin to feel uncomfortable as a decided minority or maybe, just hunger-driven, 🛒and 
put the thing on.

Blessings

I laugh 😅 that I even write a to do list, especially today. But I'm happy that the A/C is fixed,🌬 the shower head🚿🛁 is replaced, my lamp 🔌💡works again, (and I thank the good Elf 🧝‍♂️ who did this, but he's never on Face Book). 
I was sent to get Chinese, 🎎expecting that the Faux Noise watchers there would not be following the rules, but they were...Big Time: a sign with an order for mask wearing,😷 few to no tables inside to sit at, a large plastic curtain in the mid area with a masked cashier and hand sanitizer, and No Faux Noise! just some cool movie. This was a pleasant surprise and an uplifting development.
