Tea With Me

Tea With Me: 5th December, 2020 Saturday Well all I can say is Dickens would have had a fucking field day with all the material Tantrum and his vainglorious family’s truly heinous actions have provided.   Unpacking Christmas.  These objects saved year after year to erupt from containers I have imbued with ghosts Christmases still […]

Tea With Me: 4th December, 2020 Friday So Dreamkite drifted low in the earlies of last night’s moon soaked snowscape glowing through my dirty windows.  Dreamkite had it that my elder dachshund was in distress as I navigated the mess of an upperstory home which housed the entire history of my family.  I called for […]

Tea With Me: 3rd December, 2020 Thursday So my displacement activity to avoid the existential despair lurking in my heart has been to obsessively cook for the last three weeks.   Now if either one of my children were to read this, they would be astounded.   I am a lifelong reluctant cook.   But […]

Tea With Me: 23rd November, 2020 Monday Its Grey.  Unusual.  Light is dim and dogs are driftly dozing.   Almond Pup still has to wake at 6:30.  And I do not go back to sleep.   I waddle into closet and pull on something with an elastic waist and uggs and find some warm robe […]

Tea With Me: 20th November, 2020 Friday Well, Inner Peace is hard to feel these days. The rattling of the rafters holding the roof of social contract is deafening for me right now. Our recent settling in enchanted Santa Fe five months ago kept the thought of lurking lung rabies to the side as we […]

Tea With Me: 11th November, 2020 Wednesday.    After watching both the Arlington Cemetery Ceremony and the Philadelphia Korean War Ceremony today, it occurred to me to do what many of us are doing today, post photos of my Papa in his uniform. But as I searched for this photo, I came across these other […]

Tea With Me: 4th November, 2020 Wednesday 159.8 million votes cast. This was the highest percentage voter turnout since 1900.   Biden 68.6 million, Trump 65.9 million, Other 2.1 million.    Its the 2.1 million who voted for the fringe that really ticks me off.  This was not the election to exercise the right to […]
