Morning at home

liveonearthI'm in the livingroom because our tenant sleeps directly under my office---and she doesn't get up til 11am or so. This means the livingroom becomes my office. It's good having a tenant--money coming in for very little effort or expense. And she will move out mid-March and I look forward to that. Friends will come visit and stay in our basement then, and it is good having friends.
Another first world gripe this morning: my left wrist hurts. I tweaked it hard (and banged my elbow) running a waterfall a few weeks back, and yesterday I spent the day kayaking. That seems to have aggravated it. I can't seem to take enough anti-inflammatories to be comfortable. I wonder if I might have broken something in the wrist but my doc appointment doesn't come around until April 1. No foolin.
The big news of the world is of course that Israel and the U.S. are gleefully attacking Iran. How disgusting it is, all of it. My apologies to the world for the dastardly behavior of our president and congress. War is great for a few rich people and terrible for all the poor who suffer and die as soldiers and anyone caught near to the "action". How disgusting the language we use to justify it. How delightful the language in Jesse Welles songs, I listen to them on utube and they stick in my head. War isn't murder. Join ice. Red. Lots of good political protest songs and a few nonpolitical, like Bugs, and Siddhartha.
Taxes are my next project. I have a giant basket full of papers that needs review just to find the ones needed, and then I need to look up whatever I haven't got yet. I'm married now (this is a first time marriage that happened in my 50's) and my husband does the taxes. That's cool, I don't mind not doing taxes, but I am still doing my father's taxes because he is in memory care.
Hope my friends out there in the world are doing all right. Might be a good time to lay in an extra supply of foodstuffs and TP.
