First /last week

Ita still the first week of Jan, tender – toeing out of ’23 into 2024 ✨🔔oh Joy & a little tremble😱✨Past Present Futurebwhich am I thinking on the most. Looking over one shoulder, with the rest of me in NewYear gear.

Yesterday, Now & Morrow mingle without permit:

‘Dope as usual ‘ set. Artist Deanna. Drastic GraphicsLA2020 & Marty O’Neill

I’m a Carol of the Tenses: (Read : A Christmas Carol)1843 to now, Mr C. Dickens’ character E.Scrooge is still playing it loud and clear. No Humbug:

So let me wander in and out of this Post, dizzy with goodies of the good. Joy surely outweighs the nasty bits. Another thing,

When I’m on my knee-bones, praying, looking into the heavens, my ‘me’ gets Grace:

here, am strengthened by Faith in the Power that brought us all this far.

Did you read global news today? I did. Last night:

Red seas. Quakes . Dirty politics. War: Its babies. Columnists Analyists, Prophets of doom, Sunspots lookn’ nasty right at Planet Earth. There is no Plan B,

like the 3rd Spirit in that Scrooge Story* said, we better make good, forgive, be forgiven, accept each other, with TenderCare or else!

We taking down Christmas decor today– what the future will turn out to be, is everybody’s guess. Its still chilly here in our peninsula.

Our neighbour queenbee from local forest paid her respects like she does every Jan (why???). Lejh our pianist friend visited, still sleepy from a Gig. He’s miffed at the bad sound system he’s had to endure on Stage. We chatted on that, over coffee and home made bread and potato mash roasted in turmeric onion. Yona begs for garlic toast and pepper crab:) My mind is a cheerful tumble.

There’s still that Festive air though with undertone of Sad News. The girls and I plan an afternoon at Writers’ cafe: heard they’re closing down. Will wander down Zach’s, let’s see.

These are my thoughts: a scramble of January hungover from December. But if you ask, then yes, I’m thinking more on tomorrow than yesterday:

Cuz everything we were: the good, the bad, & the ugly, pales in comparison with the Joy that is to be,

now “we peer thru a glass darkly, but one day soon, face to face “ with Everything we wondered about.

As this day goes: I wish you Jesus: the reason for my awe & wonder. Whats it like for you?

  1. The past follows each one like toilet paper stuck to the bottom of a shoe. The future is waiting with open arms to receive us no matter what we drag from the past…. Vihan’s video is moving and her voice slides into the heart! ❤
