Last night with friends one started bemoaning The State Of Things, fear of right wing takeover. Talking about getting out of the country, escaping. They were shocked when I pointed out, this is only because we have rights to roll back. More “freedoms” and protections in law today for more people than ever in history and there isn’t anywhere better to go. My position is we have to defend and fight. For everyone. For the vulnerable. For those w/out the ability to fight and push and advocate.

Rights to privacy and all the case law that stems from it is relatively new. And tenuous in this climate. Fair housing, civil right act, clean water and air legislation, within living memory. These things don’t just happen. People have work and fight for them. And tend them, strengthen them. Defend them.

Oh.

Maybe the weird joint pain in my fingers (now toes and knees) is Lyme disease, not just an over aggressive weeding injury.

And I can get an appointment w/ my dr. on…July 16.

Cool cool cool. That’s my weekend shot figuring out how to deal with this.

Good news: not Lyme!

Bad news: likely an incurable autoimmune disease. Joy!

@inquiline Runs in the family. Better treatments these days luckily. And kudos to the PA who took me seriously and ran every screen known to science. Even with good health insurance having access to medical care where you are acknowledged and listened to makes all the difference.

Picked & to make small for Mom. The roses smell divine!

I got the vase for free. It's part of set of 3 glassblown art vases. Got them from a free pile from local estate clear out, a few years ago. I'm good at scoring lots of & rarely buy anything new.

Bouquet of red & deep pink roses with red weigela flowers in a green & white glassbown artisan vase.

@msquebanh no idea where mine came from. I get most of my vases from the local swap shop so I always have one handy to give a bouquet and then don’t need to vase back.
