I had the most wonderful day today. It reminded me, life can still be good even in the middle of

[LiberalLoner]

Our nation falling apart, atrocities all around us, looming war. We can still somehow find little bits of happiness.

My husband took me to the National Gallery of Art. And I got to see beautiful paintings. Then we had a nice lunch, followed by custard, and naps in our respective recliners while listening to an audible book from the number one ladies detective agency series.

I was grateful for every single moment of it, and thought, how wonderful my life is, away from my family of origin and away from any toxic people in general.

I look at Trump and see my father. And my older sister and brother turned cruel and sociopathic, too.

Every day, I think at least one time, I am so glad I escaped my family of origin.

1. Sounds like a great day...I'm a liberal loner here in red KS, but I did get some new conga drums so having fun with them

[LiberalLoner]

10. I am smiling at the thought of you enjoying your new conga drums, I hope they

Will always be a joy to you and the music you create will be a joy to others, as well!

2. Glad you have overcome some hard problems. Trmp, and your father/siblings. You are a shining star!

And don't let anyone put out your glow. Enjoy what you can.

Life can deal us with lemons, etc....

[LiberalLoner]

11. Thank you so very much! 💙💙💙. I will try to keep hold of this happiness and peace, so that

I may give it to others.

3. Hold on to that!

So important to remember that life is good if you stay in the now. So hard to do, and yet so simple.

[LiberalLoner]

12. Thank you so so much! 💙💙💙. What a good reminder for all of is, perhaps everyone struggles to

Be here now!

5. What a glorious day! Husband planned a perfect day for you both.

I’m really glad you escaped your family of origin and created your own family and friends of choice.

[LiberalLoner]

14. Thank you so much! 💙💙💙. Yes, I am so grateful to him, especially as I am in a wheelchair for things

Like museums, etc. I can walk and stand but not for very long or far. MS.

He has always been so wonderful to me. I am lucky.

My birthday is this summer, and I always ask for things like this as part of my birthday season celebration!

6. Beautiful

[LiberalLoner]

16. Thank you so much! 💙💙💙. Here is a photo I took of a fountain I love there.

The water was not yet running, perhaps too early in the morning.

7. Happy for you. Absolutely a great day in Mid-Maine. Overcast, but comfortable, late PM rain watered the garden,

perfectly. A great summer here, so far.

[LiberalLoner]

17. Thank you so much! 💙💙💙 and I am happy for you, enjoying a beautiful Maine summer day! How peaceful! 😍

You could write this post every day in some capacity and that makes you such an amazing part of our days.
Thank you!

[LiberalLoner]

18. Thank you so much, and thank you for being so kind to me. 💙💙💙. I did take a photo of a fountain I love,

That I hope people might enjoy seeing.

9. So glad you had a lovely day.

I think all lovely days should include a nap.

[LiberalLoner]

19. Thank you so much! 💙💙💙. I do think the best days always include an afternoon nap! Do you remember,

When we were all in kindergarten (I am assuming this was a universal experience?) when we all had mats on which to take a short midday nap?

Such naps should be a normal part of life, I think.

[crosinski]

22. Yes, I do remember those naps!

You’ve talked me into taking one right now.

[LiberalLoner]

23. 😍👏👏👏

[OldBaldy1701E]

24. I am glad you found some joy in your day!

I hope you continue to do so each day!

[LiberalLoner]

25. Thank you so much! 💙💙💙. I wish I could have had everyone here along with me at the museum!

[purple_haze]

26. Amazing, I love it.

Yesterday I spent the day with my better half. My favorite thing in the world to do.

I made us breakfast and coffee just like every other morning, and then we hiked, took care of all the trees in the yard, ran a bunch of errands, spoke to a bunch of perfect strangers at the grocery store, made tons of food, swam in the pool, laid in the sun, and spent very little time online.

An amazing day that refreshes my mind every time.

[LiberalLoner]

27. That sounds like such a delightful day, and you sound like a delightful person! Thank you

For sharing this!
