READING, WRITING

Read 60 seconds in SAPIENS

The author says that bands of Sapiens of 45K years ago likely stayed put unless there occurred some calamitous event such as an act of Nature or an invasion from another band.  So migrations to other places were not the norm, and when they DID move, they didn't move very far away.  So at that "rate," migrations from East Africa to China would have taken 10,000 years.

I'm imagining what it was like to be alive 45K years ago, IF (and even this author can't say for sure) we looked like we do now, we had little or no knowledge about the planet except for our immediate surroundings, there were abundant resources of food and game, we stuck to our own people......

Qui sait?

Additional writing:

Yesterday I reached by goal of 185 by 10/10.  It was 185.0  YAY!

But I had an incident with Dr. Pruitt that made me so very angry and down.  That was followed by the almost certain seating of Brett K. on the Supreme Court, an eventuality that makes me both frustrated and sad.

Things should NOT be going like this.

I should be working with David.

I should NOT be working with Dr. Pruitt.

I should be enjoying my later years.

WHY is all this continuing/not happening for me???????????

It's so CRUEL to give me such a tease, and then ignore me.

I've never HATED a presidency & congress as much as I hate this one.

So what's GOOD about my life?

1. I'm at 185, my goal for 10/10, and I'm there on 10/5 (5 days early)
2. I have enough money to pay my bills.
3. Both my kids are doing relatively well relationship- & money-wise.
4. I have George in my life.
5. I have a lot of good friends.
6. Our country is still, as far as I can tell, a democracy, and we can still vote Trump OUT.
