Ya know how we tend to see faces in things? Well, I was looking at the Zoom Earth radar for this storm, and that low pressure parked off the coast, and . . . Holy shit. 😾

J is attending a funeral today for a friend of hers, and she mentioned that she hoped her mutual friends would be there, even though it's an hour* away and it's so close to Christmas. (J was raised by her grandparents, and she lost her Papa long ago, a few weeks before Chistmas. After funeral expenses, they had nothing left for Christmas at all, so 10 year old J got nothing, while having to see her cousins got a huge number of gifts. No one thought to make sure she wasn't left out.) *In the U.S. we express distances as units of time. This distance outside the U.S. would be expressed as 73 km. It's crucial to support the people you know who feel crushed by a barrage of messages about holiday cheer. The smallest gesture can really help them feel acknowledged.
