I think I need to be the one doing the turning things upside down. The problem is I am an Aquarian, so when I do put my mind to that, look out. You get way more than you bargained for.💖😌

This week has been so sad and disappointing. It has left me seething with anger at the inhumanity. This of course is very unhealthy. I hope to stand on my head and reimagine the world.

Here is something that might be helpful, a livecam of an outdoor skating rink in Portsmouth, NH. The second link is for a Livestream on Feb.1(next Saturday) at the rink. This is an ice show that pairs local amateur skaters who are learning to skate with professional skaters from a local nonprofit.

And a great way to stretch our thinking, and our imaginations.

Thank you.

I longed for suction cups. They worked so well in Get Smart.

That’s funny, I did exactly the same thing, imagining myself stepping high over the top sills of doors, sitting cross-legged on the ceiling. It was roomy, uncluttered. I tried to ask my besty if she did it too, and she just looked at me funny, so I’m pleased to hear that you did that too, Clara!

Great mural. What wonderful memories. I loved hanging upside down from the top rung of the monkey bars/ jungle gym at school. Of course the recess monitor would have some sort of heart failure. Lol. Back in the days when there was just bare ground to cushion your fall.

So lovely to ponder; thank you!

And if we had a beaded curtain between rooms, would we marvel that these sparkling gems just grow up from the ground?!!

EXACTLY! What stays upright and what falls upside down?

Looks like a discombobulated Mary Poppins. But no wonder—she’s found herself in Paris, not London! Good advice from Rumi…
