#NewThisDay Writing From My Photo Stream

This is the week of the red maple glory. They are as bright as any red can be this week. Happy November! Wow, that was a swiftly moving October. Full of gold. Today it was a hectic departure, but a cheerful one. I made his breakfast, I made his lunch. I took care of the pets and the plants. I had my swim. I got to my desk. I wrote answers to some interview questions about my images being published in a journal. Prepped for a presentation at the library tomorrow. And, happiest of moments, revised a poem for workshop Monday. Made good progress. Frank home after being gone all week. A lovely fresh warm breeze blowing through the windows all day. Pickle tonight with Frank and my daughter, son, my daughter’s boyfriend. I felt like the weak link, but we had fun. Tonight I am saying a prayer of thanks to Liz Cheney and all the countless women who have said no Trump.
