HAPPY POST CHRISTMAS!!!

Persist and Consequence Shall Induce Itself Has A Fro…The Bald-Headed Monkey in a Bad Wig: Grief, Guilt, and Moving Forward – feliciabaxter

In this episode, we’re talking about the messy, unpredictable, and downright absurd nature of grief—or as it sometimes feels, like a bald-headed monkey in a bad wig.   Ethel, comedian first and a guard dog second. We honor the memory of Ethel, a tiny Chihuahua with the fierce spirit of an 80-pound Doberman who ruled the house, barked at motion detectors, and hid behind her human when things got too real. We also dive deep into the heavy, often misplaced guilt that comes with losing a pet, and discuss the practical, difficult reality of "sitting out life." While waiting for therapy or medications to reach a steady state, how do we begin to increase our participation in the world again? Join me for a raw, honest conversation about love, loss, and the slow climb back into life.   #PetLoss #GriefJourney #MentalHealthMatters #HonoringEthel #ChihuahuaLove #GriefAndGuilt #PodcastLife #HealingProcess #MentalHealthSupport Ready to hit the "off" switch?

I started this post on Boxing Day or the day after Christmas. However, all was not peaceful in my TN hood. There was an intentional bombing that took out almost the entire AT & T telecom grid for emergency, police and healthcare system and all personal customers until probably within the last 2 hours. Debit card and credit transactions were on pause and I was on the look out for an ATM because cash has become king. But what was disconcerting just how disconnected and anxious I felt.

The “Panorama” has curtailed travel. Caused me to increase my hermit tendencies, I have been saying I am ok but I still have to come out and outside and speak to other humans. I did start thinking about picking my way back to VA for familiarity, and hanging out with my aunts

I miss my friends

and cousin

Wonder Woman 1984

This movie debuted on Christmas. I have to partially agree with my cousin Drac, in that it would have looked great on iMax big screen especially every fight scene but the effects on a regular Sony, Roku, LCD etc…

Soul

I didn’t know what to expect. I thought it was going to be really kind of stupid…but surprisingly I rediscovered how talented Jamie Foxx is. Wonderful voice and he is a classically trained pianist with his chops showing in the movie. Tina Fey was hysterical, and Whoopi was in it too! I thought it was just a sappy feel good movie so sorely needed in this awful Panorama….bahahhaaha!!!

ST Discovery

I was so unimpressed with this week’s ST Discovery episode Su’Kal, Ships of Star Trek and will not be uploading the ST Logs, Saru’s recount was a big snooze.

The Stand

“To say that The Stand has been universally loved on CBS All Access would be a false statement, to be honest, but one thing that fans should recognize is that this version is following the book a little closer than the original miniseries did back in 1994. Just to start with, Larry Underwood was kind of a miserable individual when Captain Trips hit in force and was a less than savory character. ” From TV Over Mind.

No its not, it gets worse every week and is so far removed from the detailed packed novel that it is garbage on the screen. I think worse than any Kardashian TV show.
