How heartbreaking!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Today is a day of celebration as it is the birthday of Cass! Happy birthday my dear. May the year to come be filling with joy.
Up early again. My body just has to get up when it gets light out. Now if only it would learn to need less sleep in the summer. I'll start nodding out about 9 tonight.

Happy Birthday to Cass!
Laura, I was wide awake at 5:30a this morning! I took advantage of it and got up, what the hell. I'm sorry for that family's losses. Cannot fathom.

Happy Cass Day!
My phone tells me I can look forward to a high of 108 degrees today, which is too many degrees, so I set up my fan to blow directly on me while I work. You know how your brain will try to turn white noise or random sounds into something recognizable? I keep hearing Ride of the Valkyries in the fan drone.

Woohoo! We now have tomorrow off fir the new Federal holiday! Yay!
One of the people key to getting Juneteenth recognized is a woman I worked with years ago with Habitat for Humanity in Fort Worth. Her name is Opal Lee and I know she has been featured on several national news programs.

Very cool, msbelle! Um, that you worked with Opal Lee, although it is also pretty cool that you get tomorrow off. We do not, although I suppose they could make an announcement to that effect this afternoon but considering our VP of People has not been replaced yet I don't see that happening. Yay federal holiday in general!

That is simply awesome, msbelle. I may have whooped when I heard that it was instantly being observed.

We received a 12 paragraph email from the president of our school about our dedication to antiracism and the importance Juneteenth. None of those paragraphs included a day off tomorrow, alas. Working with Opal Lee sounds pretty cool, msbelle.

That’s awesome msbelle! I figure we don’t get off for veterans day or Columbus Day or Presidents’ Day so I’m sure we won’t get Juneteenth either even if it’s a federal holiday. Oh well.
t, 108 is WAY too many degrees. Good grief. I thought you lived in a temperate Bay Area climate!
