I was worthless that day-after too. But I'm actually way more mad today than I was even then lol. Thanks for putting words to the thoughts and making it make sense a little. Also, pumpkin cake and icing please
Oh Maria, so beautifully, thoughtfully expressed. It does help to know we're not alone in these feelings of disappointment and despair, of fear and frustration.
You are definitely not alone, Wendy. It’s awful, isn’t it? I don’t know about you, but this week feels almost worst…I felt a bit numb at first but now I’m feeling it all. Rage, fear, grief.
Yes, this week, it feels more real and more scary. Like we're all just teetering at the top of a very steep cliff and are about to fall overboard. So scary.
Great reflections. Thank you! A couple of the things that may be good from the current election results are the following: Kamala Harris' concession speech promoting a peaceful transition. The integrity that was displayed by Kamala Harris as she spoke of Democracy and following the Constitution.
If she had won, our country might have entered a terrible time of terror and violence.... and the world would once again, see a poor loser.
These are excellent points, Paulajo. Yes, a different result would have its own “after,” which could bring devastation of another kind. Sigh. Onward, right?

Agree. None of it goes away, but we will find a way through (or out!). We have to. As for cake, it really does help.
more reason for us to committing to all the High Teas

I definitely get it. 💔
As usual Maria, a great story that says it all. I love you. Dad
Love you too, Dad.❤️
My thoughts go out to all of you in the US this week. Such challenging times we live in.
Thank you so much, Sascha. That really does mean a lot, more than you might realize.❤️
