To Each His Own

I have some kinky neighbors. Meet Bartholomew, Rose, Bertha, Milly, and Fred. They are rather old and sometimes older people develop odd behaviors. They sometimes lose their inhibitions and do things they always dreamed of doing when younger and more restrained. They all agree that shedding their cumbersome clothes is a great pleasure. They are not ashamed even though the cakes add a little fat to their aging rolls. They are unconcerned. Living the rest of their sweet lives to the fullest is their mutual desire.

And so they do. This lively bunch meets regularly for tea, cakes, gossip, and to discuss current events. They exchange tales of times past and the quintet has led spicy lives, although not as spicy as the current one. They all have strong opinions and the conversations do get animated.

At first the neighbors wondered if the get togethers were appropriate, but due to their overwhelming charm, the five oddballs have won the neighbors' hearts. They are viewed as eccentric oldsters just passing time innocently. Live and let live is the neighborhood motto. It's the easiest way. Bart and the gang do just what they please. They've earned the right.

Some of the neighbors have even thought about loosening up themselves. Relaxing and enjoying one another's company is catching on.

A heart full. ❤️💜💕

Wonder if Aunt Hildegarde would approve? She certainly has the chapeau.

Then there were those grand dames in black picnicking with the black sedan.

Quite an assortment of preferred styles.

Aunt Hildegarde can be a fussbudget and a prude, so, no, I think not!

Our ladies of antiquity are so inspirational, and you got it...as diverse as can be.

Hope I grow old with that elan!

Something not zany.

Today as I was working on my roses I heard, “Remember Cyrus.” Echoes of Persians calling to Israel for help during the last green movement revolt.

The Green Hope still lives.

Now with the Abraham accords a rebirth is possible, is it time?

Would it not be so fitting and glorious if Israel returned Cyrus' favor?

Well, I'm back as Tseka of old.
Who can understand google?

Oh, my fervent hope. The Abraham Accords are serious, a reflection of the times and our ancient biblical roots. Our spiritual longing never abates. The name gives me the bumps.

It could be time. I know the middle east is longing for something better as a whole and there is a reason for the Israeli state.

What a beautiful thought you expressed. Reciprocity to the maximum.

It does seem that civilization is inching toward a small increase in peace. Overall violence is down and democracy ever so slightly up. Things move and change so good things come up, even if seemingly by chance.

Tseka of old! Yay! You and Google need to sort it out. Some accord, perhaps.

Understand Goog? Who can understand anything?

One end result of Capricorn is establishment and respect for boundaries. It's time. Respect for personal body boundaries included.

Ja, read earlier about half of FDA refused the vax!

JM it's been cuckoo, CDC was who ordained that banks could not foreclose on mortgages during pandemic. Who the heck gave CDC any legislative ability? We are now so accustomed to non governmental agencies regulating we don't even notice.

Persia and Israel both in my prayers.

Absolutely. Pluto in Capricorn. What the hell does government mean? The damn CDC has way overstepped its bounds. Civics, baby. States' rights, separation of powers, all the good stuff.

Looks like the vax game is going to do the trick. I figured the invasion of personal space would stop there. We still need a cosmic surgeon to cut off the masks, though.

This is an opportunity of a lifetime for the states of America. Legislative sovereignty please. Florida leading the way as a bellwether in many ways.

BTW, Uranus square Saturn in motion with the freedom from government restriction. Closing in now, all next month they stay together. Congress is trying like mad to keep the clamps on, speaking of legislative disability, but they seem to passing not much of anything. A swirling fog of nothingness. Good time to snatch some freedom.

I hope that Uranus square Saturn = taking big corporations down several notches.

It's the small independent bloggers who are pulling the curtain aside to reveal little men at the levers. Exposing Fauci is the best.

I just had an image of your kinky neighbors sharing the juicy gossip over their cucumber sandwiches. I can easily imagine their thoughts on masking. Hats are an artistic statement, masks do not enhance the unclad.

Ha! Ha! Ha!! "Masks do not enhance the unclad." What a funny look, though in a macabre way. They would beyond a doubt have cutting things to say over their sandwiches. They are not scaredy-cats by any stretch of the imagination.

Oh that awful Fauci. Why does the universe make humans like that? Are the gods taunting us? Power to the mighty little bloggers! Unmask the rat!!

Today it was decreed that the vaxxed could go mask free in Colorado. So a tiny number of them actually did. I saw real human faces. Complete ones. What an embarrassing and loooong episode. It's still going to be difficult.

They've gotten themselves into an amazing pickle. So many are still terrified. How are they going to separate the vaxxed from the frightening unvaxxed? Wrist bands? Those can be faked. The whole thing is ludicrous beyond belief.

The Saturn-Uranus big corporation thing might get interesting. They actually fueled the masking since the governors had no authority to do what they did. Store policy accomplished the dirty deed. Trader Joe's dropped the whole thing today. Now they'll all have to or the competition will eat them alive. Then comes the vax passport game which is impossible. Everybody looks stupid. The government, the corporations, and unfortunately, we the peeps. But many are blissfully unaware. They even think they heroically conquered the pestilence. Maybe they conquered something. I hope so.

The best thing with Saturn-Uranus would be to start downsizing the woke cancel culture game the corporations are enjoying. There's one more square after this. When small business gets going again, things will happen. Fortunately, it's all out of anybody's control. All I know is, life is persistent.

Unmasked.
Cancel culture rekt (as the kids say) corporations on their back foot. Small biz opening with many of us voting with pur feet. Yay for Trader Joe's may they drag the whole lot along.

Saturn-Uranus bring it.

The best news I have is birds, multitudes of migrating birds of every feather are stopping for a few days in my trees. I've not seen this variety and number in years. A friend nearby reports the same. Birdsong fills the morning. It's astonishing.

So, Dr Fauci sold his Washington DC home. Where's he headed? Gone?.
Saturn-Uranus is popping the lid off. Heh, mini explosions like the cans of Surströmming -stinky fish that carry explosion warnings on the labels.

Manhole coverings pushed aside by swamp creatures.

So many retirements. Forced?

OMG! Brilliant!...."mini explosions like the cans of Surstromming stinky fish that carry explosion warnings on the label" The joy of language.

Uranus brings sudden reversals. So here they all are. Reversed and shocked. And dazed and confused. The continuing normal. What next?

Swamp creatures in New York. Gators eating fawns. Lots of manholes in the oh so threatened environment. One never knows what will emerge or go down.

I don't know about anyone else's retirement, I'm thinking of my own employment. Only when dancing returns.

It will be interesting to see how the fear reroutes. I think the fear quotient remains steady. A certain amount is needed. Maybe distribution can change. Anyone who wants mine can have it free of charge. I'm generous to a fault.

Wonder what the birds are up to besides filling your life with pleasure.
