A day of rest has
become a day of angst as
I listen to news

We were up having our coffee before 7 watching the light come up in Yuma. It wasn't until I pulled up my laptop that I began to realize what had happened with the election here yesterday. I have no words to describe my horror at the prospect of this change of government. What happens to NATO? What happens to the Ukraine? What happens to all the criminal cases lodged against this felon?

I put in a load of laundry, then we left for the airport in hopes of ironing out some details for my friend's flights tomorrow. It wasn't very helpful. 

I discovered that one of my favourite restaurants, Red Lobster, has been closed. We had our lunch at a classic diner, Penny's Diner instead. It was another experience for my Australian friend. The waitress was offhand and we had our plates tossed onto the table in front of us. 

We returned home after a drive through the agricultural fields so my friend could have a look. I pegged out my laundry and now I can sit with my feet up again.
