Delta

A friend sent me this today:

I Wear My Mask for Three Reasons

  1. HUMILITY: I don’t know if I have COVID… people can spread the disease before they have symptoms.
  2. KINDNESS: I don’t know if the person I am near has a child battling cancer, or cares for their elderly mom. While I might be fine, they might not.
  3. COMMUNITY: I want my community to thrive, businesses to stay open, employees to stay healthy. Keeping a lid on COVID helps us all.

Dave and I are fully vaccinated but still wearing our masks.

TTYL,

Linda

New minimalism concept

New to me, at least.

Zone Defense

For when you live with others who are not minimalists.

Each family member has at least one area in which to accumulate whatever makes them happy.

But, there are zones in which stuff is not allowed to accumulate.

If you are the cook and you are a maximalist you can have as much cooking gear as your choose to have. But, if you are the cook and you are a minimalist you get to defend your zone again encroachment of other people’s stuff.

If you share your living room with kids you can declare the zone behind the couch to be a play area while all space in front of the couch is a minimalist zone.

A zone defense makes it possible for minimalists and maximalists to live in harmony.

In theory, anyway.

Today’s view

Dave took this picture out our window today. The pond is so shallow, deer are wading in it. Click to enlarge it.

I wish the water was as clear as it used to be. The more houses they build the more green the water gets as people “treat” their lawns, thus destroying the nature this land was dedicated to preserve. I suspect the people living in the houses up the hill on the other side of the trees don’t see the damage they are doing. At least, I hope they don’t see it rather than they are just ignoring the results of their activities.

TTYL,

Linda
