A Happy Day

(This seems like the right image for
today.  It is a joyous painting
of the pond at a park in Toronto
that we visit often.  Plus the
painting is sitting in New York
City, waiting until the pandemic
is solved, and the gallery it is
supposed to show in, can open
up again.  So the painting
cares a great deal about the
Inauguration, and the hope for
a better future -- soon.)

This is a happy day! I haven’t heard my husband singing in the kitchen as he
makes dinner for quite a while, but today Yep. He is. It’s a happy day because
that narcissistic, racist, anti-environmental, horrible, criminal leader to the south
of us is finally gone.

I’m a fan of solutions, and I’m hoping that we are now going to see some. If
the new American government can stop the spread of COVID-19, and reverse
some of the harm done by #45, that will be wonderful. Not everyone in our
country is going to be happy about the immediate effects of the laws, and changes
that are being brought in today. But if those changes help the environment I’m
in full support.

Congratulations to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris! Wishing you all the best!
