Reaffirming America's Founding Values

Watching Trump’s support around the country and his policies for the last 4 years have really made me question what America stands for, so this Thanksgiving weekend I set out for a tutorial with a visit to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. My America welcomes immigrants and is stronger as we blend our differences into a better joint society. Listening to all the immigrants tell stories about arriving into NY Harbor warmed my heart. It was fun to think about how each of the 12 million people who arrived through Ellis Island landed on our shores and made a home here.

Pandemic Facebook Update - End of October - November 27

November 27

Happy to report the most important part of my Thanksgiving tradition went great! Leftovers. Had a delicious turkey sandwich will all the fixings for breakfast and there is plenty left for the whole weekend. The pandemic can’t stop me! #lifeinthetimeofcorona

November 26

2020 Pandemic Thanksgiving. Dinner for one and yet not alone at all. Two family zooms as well as champagne outdoors with friends/neighbors and a meal of my traditional favorites. I’ll call it making lemonade with the lemons I was given. I’m thankful I’m resilient and able to take all this change in stride. I hope others found nice ways to celebrate. Happy Thanksgiving. #lifeonthetimeofcovid

Somehow I’m watching the National Dog Show and loving the audience and clapping soundtrack. Pandemic life is strange, but I have really enjoyed watching how everyone adapts to it.

November 24

New season, new opportunity to accessorize and face masks only add to the fun! What’s everyone whining about? #wearamask
