In bed at 9:15, awake at 3:45, out of bed at 4:05, 3 pss, 1 glass of dry cherry wine, Door Peninsula Winery.  Lilly got up with me, let her out and kept watch at the door for Wiley Coyote.  Big day: Sarah's 53rd, Lilly's 13th, and Kitty and Jim's 56th.  34 degrees outside, high of 58 is expected.  I lit my Kitty votive candle to keep me company on her anniversary.  Will text Chrissi today.  Sent an email to Sarah yesterday late afternoon.  Lilly gets a special birthday bone today.  Dinner tonight with the Goldbergs at the Lowes.

I took a photo of Jonathan Bachman's wonderful shot of a young black woman bravely, stoically standing in the middle of a street while being rushed by 2 Louisiana National Guardsmen in Darth Vader battle gear, with zip ties.  I want to get a print of this photo to put next to the large print on my bedroom wall of Nancy Pelosi, the only woman at a very large conference table standing and pointing her finger accusingly while saying to Donal Trump "With you, all roads lead to Putin." Two iconic photos.  Now the question is how do I get a print of this copyrighted Reuters photo.

Tired all day despite a decent night's sleep.  Tidied up the basement studio/office space and hung a couple of paintings, including mixed media Portrait de Rita and Jesus Saves.

Worked on Last Wishes document, names, addresses, and phone numbers.  Need to add a lot more info: insurance, etc., and divorce info.  Working on  the high butcher block oak table, awkward, aching back a limitation on endurance.

Geri dressed warmly headed out to join Helen Samson and many others on a march for women's rights and dignity, gathering at the lighthouse at Lake Park.  Will be back in time to go to the Lowe's for the quarterly meal gathering.
