I will always have a soft spot in my heart for our Jehovah's Witness visitors Jan & Dolly, 2 sisters who came to my house for 30 years - asking about my mom's health, our cats, & barely mentioning religion except to leave me a magazine at the end. Kind, thoughtful neighbors.

I pick up her favorite turquoise-handle brush. Her hair is soft with gray stands. She can’t speak anymore and wrinkled eyes gaze upon me. A tear rolls out a corner of her eye. I wipe it away. It won’t be long now. Death is waiting but I’m not ready to let her go. She’s my mom. #soft . #spoutories

“He opened the box of fast-food giveaways lost in the basement for twenty-five years. Stuff that had to make way for the new. Maybe one day the newborn would enjoy the #soft McDonald’s beanie baby still in its bag from 1997. Or better yet, the proceeds from selling it on eBay.”

He struck a pose, ‘But soft, what light through yonder window breaks’
She laughed, ‘You do know how that play ended?’
He pulled a bouquet from behind his back and knelt at her chair. For 30 years you have been my sun, and will be for 30 more. Happy Anniversary, my Juliette!’

They often misunderstood her compassionate nature for frailty when she embraced her #soft side. They did not know it was her tenderness that fueled her inner strength. Her compassion was a guiding light, illuminating the path for others to find their own resilience within vulnerability. #Spoutories

The #Spoutories word this morning sent thoughts in two different directions - syrup or blood. I chose syrup. Not sure how dark horror would go.

Together, but apart. We made a virtual date. I chose soft lovely music for writing and drawing. The album - Natalia Lafourcade - Musas, Un Homenaje al Folclore LatinoAmericano en Manos de Los Macorinos. They loved it. When we were done, we shared our work. Perfect evening. #Soft #Spoutories

I catch a glimpse of someone at the door.
Inquisitive, Betsy asks,“Hey y’all. Can I come in? What y’all #laugh -ing about?”
“Betsy, these helium balloons are going flat. We’re sucking it in.” I continue in a high pitched voice, “Wanna say ma sa…”. Not quite as good as Michael Jackson. #spoutories

Me & Bob during Obama canvassing, 2008. We walked our neighborhood knocking on doors. Photo by Bobbi Reichtell, the neighbor we met canvassing for John Kerry. Our corner café was de facto local Obama HQ for volunteers that year. Being active in politics is a necessity.

Early in the pandemic, my husband stayed #active with online Zumba classes. Loki liked to get in the way. #DailyPictureTheme @DailyPictureTheme

Anthony Heddlesten @HeddlestenLast year, we celebrated a young lady (12!!) who is already #active in our community and making the world a better place. Check out Nicolina’s effort to reduce plastic waste! I proclaimed our city would do what we could to reduce plastics as well.

I always try to stay #active physically and with fun. Even if it means to volunteer holding a toilet plunger at a Park Ranger naturalist talk about Mountain Goats. #dailypicturetheme

Oh, sure! There’s the occasional zoomie fit that goes on for a few minutes. But I do believe most cat-owned humans will agree that being #active is such a small percentage of their day. And they’re comfortable sleeping like that! #active #dailypicturetheme

This view could change at any moment as along with the howling winds we are expecting some snow.
