Reportedly sellers are starting to charge us for Trump's tariffs.
I think that they have already started.
My favorite jarred sauce now comes in a smaller jar for the same price.
Older jar is 16.75 oz.
New jar is 12.5 oz.

Women in Frank's morning class told him to be sure to bring home flowers.
He did not follow their advice.
He knows me so well.
The last thing that I want is a bunch of dying flowers.
Chocolates on the other hand...

Have noticed that after 11pm my Twitter feed fills up with pets and children.
During the day it fills with the stupidity of the Trump administration.
Maybe I should only check it at midnight.
Covid 19 activity remains low in California.

No accidents or power outages in the canyon today.
FAA declared a ground stop at El Paso airport.
Seems that DOD or ICE didn't notify FAA of a test to shoot down drones.
Maybe they need training in Ukraine...

Caught a good bit of the Pam Bondi hearing thanks to the BBC.
Once had to testify at a congressional hearing.
Was a sensible affair with representatives asking logical questions about the subject at hand.
Of course that was 30+ years ago...

Have done nothing productive for the last four days except unpack, do laundry, and put away luggage.
Parkas are washed, but not back in storage.
Waiting to be sure the down is completely dry.
Nothing stinks like wet down.
Big football game today, eh?

Tonight's locker room talk...
Everyone wanted to know about Belgium trip.
Ester: How was the food?
Me: Best cheesecake I have ever had.
Ester: They make it with curds.
All the food was good, but the desserts were memorable.

Grew up under Jim Crow.
I remember "separate but equal" schools.
My "white" parents worked to end that.
Never expected to have to fight for civil rights again.
But here we are.

Missed last Sunday's family dinner.
Frank and I both brought "colds" back from Belgium.
Could hardly hold my head up.
Made up for that today.
Son tried a new potato recipe.
It was very good.
Lord Mandelson resigns over Epstein file.

Binge watched two old Agatha Christie movies.
One with Rock Hudson, Tony Curtis, Elizabeth Taylor...
The other with a young Maggie Smith and other familiar faces, but Maggie is the one who carried it.
Covid activity is currently very low in California.

Me: Well, this room is always hot.
Checked indoor thermometer.
It was 81F.
No, the heating is not on, but the fan is.

Trump had FBI steal ballots in Georgia.
Can't seem to accept that he lost in 2020.
I failed an algebra class in college.
Papa: Just take it again.
Figured I'd fail it again.
GPA was high enough that an F didn't matter.
Accepted failure and moved on to a successful life.

Watched last 2 episodes of "Dept Q" on Netflix.
Kept our attention to the end.
Fed holds interest rates steady...as expected.
Frank celebrated 8 years of being a lifeguard.
Not many folk can pass that test at age 73.

Made a pot of chicken noodle soup.
Unpacked, did laundry.
Ukraine offers to destroy any Russian or Chinese ships found patrolling Greenland.
Czech Republic raised over €5 million ($6 million) in five days to buy generators, heaters & batteries for Ukraine.

Years ago I dated an Afghan refugee with a green card.
He said that one doesn't know terror until Russian tanks roll through your city streets.
Now I feel terror when ICE vehicles with masked men roll through US streets.

Yesterday's long travel day has left me physically tired.
Catching up on Trump's madness has left me morally weary.
His remarks at Davos were bad, but the insult to our NATO allies who fought and died to defend US after 9-11 are appalling.

After three weeks of travel in Belgium we head home tomorrow.
Saw no sign of Europe being on the decline as Trump seemed to imply today at Davos.
Belgium looks beautiful and vigorous.
So glad we decided to come here.

Day 365 of Trump 2.0
Our last full day in Antwerp.
Watched Trump's presser on BBC News from Belgium.
Frank: Please take the car keys away from me if I ever get that unhinged.
Me: You will never be that unhinged.

Bought a few chocolates.
Passed a Tupperware shop.
Decided that folks back home need chocolates instead.

Took tram to the KMSKA to see Flemish masters.
Had a break for coffee and the best cheese cake ever.
Saw the special Magritte exhibit.
Local news is full of Trump tomfoolery.
I'm so old I remember when US presidents didn't make US look stupid.

First full day in Antwerp.
Walked for two hours to the cathedral and back.
I was ready to sit with my feet up, but not Frank.
His doctor said that his testosterone level is higher than a lot of her 40 year old patients.
Frank is 81.

Guy checking us into hotel gave us way too much information on things to see here.
We just wanted to settle in.
He wanted to book restaurants.
Within an hour of signing on I was getting ads for apartments in Antwerp.
Trump reacts badly to Ford worker...

Another walk in Ghent.
Thought I was on track.
Checked map at lunch.
Seemed like I was lost.
Asked server for directions.
Was only a block off.
I navigate better when I can see the sun
Watching news from US.
Trump sure is trying to distract US from something...
