ONE IS A FLOWER AND ONE IS A WEED. I've been thin

ONE IS A FLOWER AND ONE IS A WEED.
I've been thinking and talking with friends and family about what we have learned from quarantine; what we will take out of this surreal season. No firm answers yet, but a thought: we've learned or relearned to admire so many things we ignored in the past. Admiration is culturally conditioned, which means if we've learned to value people, privileges, talents, foods, access, and places differently, maybe we should change our culture.

Art Nouveau Reaction Series 5: Socially distancing

Art Nouveau Reaction Series 5: Socially distancing from putti since before it was mandated. I kid, but at least the walks yield some architectural gems. 😍

Ahmaud Arbery should not have been murdered. His family should not have had to wait two months for the people who videotaped the murder to be arrested. He should have been able to enjoy one of his favorite activities today, on what would have been his 26th birthday. His death and the justice system's handling of it are the latest example of white supremacy in action. His friends organized a petition, a donation campaign, and a virtual solidarity run to honor their friend. I don't love running, but Maud did. I #runwithmaud.

Spring beauty and virtual visits are keeping me going right now. That and my first takeout cappuccino in weeks. ☕

Earth was looking gorgeous on her day while I walk

Earth was looking gorgeous on her day while I walked for exercise in the city's biggest park. Berlin's spring weather has been wonderful, adding somewhat to the surreal nature of social distancing. Meanwhile my family in Michigan got snow. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Wherever you are, whatever the weather, I hope you and yours are well and safe. ❤️

"Stay @ home," declares the graffito. Just let me

"Stay @ home," declares the graffito. Just let me catch my breath and enjoy the view after exercise and then it's right back to the apartment, I promise.

Gargoyle Reaction Series: Mostly fine with social distancing except occasionally I just kinda . . . lose it? I get annoyed about my quarantine buddy's behavior. I miss my gym friends and the lovely heavy weights I don't have in my apartment. I worry about my friends, my family, the world. 😳 Hang in there, gang, and no matter how much you miss barbells, STAY HOME. (Photo: Cathedral of St. Michael and St. Gudula, Brussels)

I'm starting to think the muralist who created the art in this first image was prescient. 😳 I usually have better control of my internetting habits but the uninterrupted time at home is wearing out my self-discipline. Time to turn on some app timers and focus . . . in a minute because first, there's old photos from Brussels! What a fun place with wonderful murals peeking out from buildings all over town. And amazing beer and waffles everywhere. It's a dream! 😍 #latergram
