Can too much food give you a hangover? I think so. We feasted yesterday and gave thanks for so many things, but today I just couldn’t get going. I sat and thought about the many things that needed to be done, but none of them happened today. It was overcast outside, but warm enough to allow me to do many of the outdoor jobs on my list. They didn’t get done. Maybe tomorrow. I did get some planning for the upcoming holiday season. That includes Hanukkah, Christmas, and the celebration of the winter solstice. Tonight, I am watching the first two episodes of an MSNBC special on Obama. That will make this another late night, but I have to watch to give me the strength to continue believing that this too shall pass. The current attack on democracy, the current attack on people of color, the current attack on civility, the current attack on who we are as good people—these things must stop. Easier said than done. But I will watch tonight to give me the strength to move forward and then set the alarm for tomorrow morning and get up and get to work.
