I donated to Joe tonight.

You folks deal with the crazy how you choose, or can. This was my choice on how to manage the current lunacy.

It felt normal and good to do that one small thing (it was a $25 donation) which was fully within my power to manage right now. I can't fix so much of what's out of whack right now, but I could do this one thing. I feel better knowing I did it.

Just me. YMMV. Which is perfectly understandable.

'Today, Vice President Joe Biden has cleared the path to be our party’s nominee for president.

I want to congratulate Vice President Biden and his team on their victory, and I also want to congratulate Senator Sanders and his team on a well-fought campaign. Senator Sanders and his campaign have strengthened the Democratic Party with their energy, ideas, and leadership, and we need them to continue helping lead the fight to transform this country.

Now it is time to come together and unite around our presumptive nominee. It’s time to finish the fight and send Joe Biden to the White House and elect Democrats in every corner of this country. Today marks the first day in what will be nothing short of the fight of our lifetimes, Ellen, so I need you to do something very important.

Make a $7 contribution to the Democratic Unity Fund to help elect presumptive nominee Joe Biden and Democrats in all 50 states. The general election begins right now, so your support has never been more vital than it is today.'

I did mine because I believed it was the right thing to do right now.

Also, because it made me feel a tad more sane and in control of all this insanity.

I'm not going silently into Trumps's new reality.

She's on home quarantine in CA for the past 4 days. She's a healthcare provider, so we knew she was at high risk. She's a powerhouse and a fighter. She says she's not going to let COVID-19 beat her, and I believe her. She's so tough!

Together we'll all beat this.

on the front lines for us. Best of Healing Vibes to your friend in California. I read good things about how Gov Newsom is handling the crisis.

I checked yesterday to see how many cases Kauai has and it was 18.. it's still 18 today. Maui has 58 and Oahu has 328.

We're doing our best to contain it.

My friend is otherwise heathy and truly tough as nails. We're FaceTimeing daily, and she looks good. I'm positive for her.

You, do social distance and take all precautions. It's literally the best we can do for those on the front lines.

Love to you.
