glorycloud's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The New Deal It is 12:18 PM Saturday afternoon where there are Dutch dancers who wear wooden shoes when they dance. Outside it is sunny and 37 degrees presently. I often hear ice sliding off our roof because of the sun beating down on our roof. It is a blessing to have a roof over ones head in this world where millions live out in the open exposed to the elements. I see before me all the time millions of homeless people wandering the earth. I got up this morning around 7:30 AM. When I came upstairs I found my wife getting ready for the day. She left this morning with a friend she has known for 52 years to go meet up with two other older girlfriends (these women friends all met in Nursing School). I spent the morning reading William Perkins and writing in my paper diary. I am not in the mood to venture out into the world today. This afternoon I have been sitting staring into space and reading from a book titled, 'Winter Brothers: A Season At The Edge Of America' biograph/memoir by Ivan Doig. Last night I mainly read from a book titled, 'Republic Of Detours-How The New Deal Paid Broke Writers To Discover America' by Scott Borchert and went to bed late. I suppose I will close to wait. 12:31 p.m. - 2023-02-18 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
