This is a photo that Rob took of my younger sister and I when she was in town last week. Our little Lauren Paige was named after her. We went out on our back deck so Rob could take a few photos of us.
Our family is small and far apart, so when we get together it is always bittersweet for me. If we meet, we must also part. Sigh.
To change the subject, I have been ordering shoes online and having trouble finding ones that I deem “comfortable.” I have a few pairs to send back and suddenly my printer won’t oblige me and print the return bar code. I know I am getting old when the thought of having to learn how to scan a bar code with my phone makes my blood pressure go up. Hopefully, Rob will give me a tutorial in how to do this.
All day long there are stories of Trump’s failed coup and how even more may be on the horizon since the Republican Party is now a form of fascism. Trump may be gone, but the far right are insane.
As someone who has been studying truth for decades, I know the truth when I hear it. And Trumpism has never been about truth; it is about deceit and power-grabbing by any means possible.
Now my blood pressure is really going up! I will close with adding the photo with the 3 of us. Rob had set up his tripod so he could jump in at the last minute.
Love,
Vicki
Both of the pictures are very special. Thank you to Rob for taking them and you for sharing them. I believe he shall gladly give you the tutorial for scanning with your phone. It may be taking a picture with your phone, but that’s only a guess on my part. I do not know how to utilize my cell phone for much other than phoning and texting a bit. It is horrifying to realize that so many Republicans are against our Democracy.
I seldom use my cell phone and that’s a fact! A sure sign of getting old 🙂
These are lovely photos of you all! A strong resemblance between you sisters and I love Rob’s neon green socks! Lol. Your yard beyond the deck looks lushly green and cool. Very beautiful.
It seems you enjoyed your visit…such happy smiles. I’m glad.
And drat on the printer👎. And ordering on line is a pain for judging size and comfort. Comfort with shoes takes top billing for me with the neuropathy. I’m sure for you too.
Yes, I’m sorry to say, a frightening future awaits us with the faction of deluded people still plotting and planning to rule the world. It won’t matter if Trump Shrump crawls back under his rock like the spider he is. Hope for the best, plan for the worst.
My plan; take pleasure in the little things as they present themselves and put the rest to bed. Wish me luck🍀🤞.

I like your photos.
You are a man of few words!
Love the pics! Yeah, bittersweet is the word for a lot in this life.
