How Can I Miss You...

 If you refuse to GO AWAY????

In an unprecedented (and I know...we've used that term a lot over the past 4 years)  move...instead of losing graciously and beginning the transition process with President-Elect Joe Biden and Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris...Trump is busy rage tweeting...firing people...filing lawsuits...refusing to accept the election results... 

In short, he is acting like a three year old who has been told he can't have another cookie.

 Melania has also refused to meet with First Lady-Elect Jill Biden.

Remember when the Trumps came to the White House and Michelle brought the lovely wrapped Tiffany gift for Melania?

Face it...these are trashy people and we can expect them to act like trash...until the day they are evicted from Our White House.

So, I am over being appalled...over listening or talking with their misguided supporters (...bless your hearts...).


A bright shiny new future!

 Joe has already assembled his Covid Task Team...12 experts in their field. And laid out his plan.

And moving ahead with his transition team.

Whether or not Trump ever actually concedes...he will be leaving January 20th...at noon. 

Or be forcibly removed.

So there is that...

 


Meanwhile...on the Covid Front...the numbers are grim.

Worldwide we have surpassed 51 Million infected with over a Million deaths, and are averaging a half million new infections each day.

Here in the USA we have more than 10 Million infected and well over  200,000 dead. 

We are adding over 100,000 new cases a day and have been for the past 4 days. 

In my state alone we added another 5,000 new cases just yesterday.

Texas reported over 10,000 new cases yesterday.

The hospitals are on the verge of being overwhelmed.

(and are in some states)

Stay Safe, people.

 We may be "so over" Covid-19, but trust me when I say Covid is not "over" us.

Good news yesterday...as our Duck Couple are STILL around, and the large white abandoned female seems to have integrated into part of the flock...which is neat.


And John getting in some late season fishing before the snow flies...and sending me back some gorgeous sky shots yesterday...

 




So pretty I would like to paint them.

Finishing out that Fall Painting this month...as he wants it.

That is Motivation!

Going to add a personal touch for just US.

Good news on the Household Front, too!

My new pantry and bathroom vanity have arrived...and both will be installed tomorrow!

Leaving only the arrival of the new stove and fridge (both black!!!) and a bit of touch up painting.

Finishing unloading the boxes back in the rest of the cabinets today.

Feels like a light at the end of the tunnel!!!

And already have my 2020 Christmas decorating plans (and a new tree...with clear lights) on the way.

This year's theme...An Old Fashion Christmas.

All the old glass...real lead foil icicles from Germany...popcorn strings and candy canes...and my (inherited) red and white quilt bunched around the base as a tree skirt.

And a teddy bear, of course.

Not sure whether I'm doing a retro-topper yet.

But planning the holiday already...

 


Love,

Carla
