So What's New?

So my dear girl and her writing partner Jenny,

were selected in the top 2% of 13,175 entries to the

Austin film festival and they are 1 of only 20 

selected in their category.

Busting Buttons Time

Hannah and Tom have also become Vegan,

graduating up from Pescatarian.

How I wish I had the discipline.

Dearest son has been working his butt off

on a big project coming in December on your 

main streaming channel. Tell you all about it when I can

Busting Buttons x 2

On weekends Ben is working on their new home,

redoing their bathroom, hanging wallpapers, 

building a shed, multiple planters and more; 

 last weekend removing all their sod 

and replacing with an eco friendly

ground cover, tiny plug by tiny plug.

see the tiny specs of green?

They walk the walk- solar home, electric cars.

Purchase only items made here, 

avoiding eco impact in shipping;

not supporting any company using child labor

 or unfair practices.

That means buying a sofa or any item

 can take hours of research, 

as many companies hide the origins.

Walter is of course still a little lovable weirdo.

9 months old now!

His antics, and my joy watching them, can be found

 on my Instagram account here

You will also find on my IG, my obsession with Imperfect Foods boxes,

that I receive each Tuesday and the meals I make with them.

I do tend to post more frequently over there,

 as I can do that and simultaneously

toss and catch toys, rocks etc with Walter.

I love my trusty old blog which is really 

just a journal for myself that happens to be public,

so I'll still be kicking along here.

So kids, dog, food

what else is there in this new reality

well except our looming peril?...

oh and yeah the big one

Dearest Son and Darling DIL are married

shhhh don't say anything

Wedding still next May.

I got permission to tell as the secret since January

was not remaining secret. 

We are all thrilled! 

ALWAYS 

LOVE

Idiot Thy Name Is ...

A comment to my post

"you truly are an idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

https://oldgreymareprimitives.blogspot.com/2020/06/when-all-else-fails.html

A fairly benign post for what my true feelings encapsulate.

My first negative comment in over 10 years.

I could post the comment so that you all could see 

who it was, but that would be unkind to her, and I choose to be kind.

I did respond with a gentle reminder of what her deity truly preaches.

As I age, I've learned that most folks when faced with a 

counter point to their beliefs, close their ears and refuse

the challenge to learn and expand.

flat earthers unite

My instincts said ignore- do not take the bait,

but I'm still 3/4's optimistic these days.

I expect a ration of %$#^ in return- what she does not know 

unless she returns to gleefully see my response, is

that her deity preaches what I believe;

 I can prove it.

now Walter says : 

I choose to burrow in as close as possible to mom's leg

and enjoy some fall

I wept when I heard

I am so sad 

I am afraid

 I will continue to RESIST

I will continue to fight

for everything she stood for.
