Gonna get woo woo for a bit—11 posts total.
I’m re-evaluating my spiritual beliefs. Because of everything.
I’m drawn to figures of divine mercy and strength: Jesus, la Virgen de Guadalupe, Hekate. Because they all embody different aspects of the divine—love, justice, transformation, guidance.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

I’m feeling better. (I’ve been knocked out the last few days with a nasty cough and cold.) Today I felt like cooking pasta like Italians do it.

The most important part of my trip that had the most emotional impact on me: Dachau. Walking into the roll call area hit hard. I had to take deep breaths. I got weepy. Also walking past 30+ long gravel beds where the barracks were, to the crematorium area. Which was also really emotional.

As your lifestyle allows, go out this week and buy coffee from a local coffee shop, buy a book from an indie bookstore, get some spring plants from the local nursery. Maintain your comfort zone, but these are days when our community businesses need us as much as we need them.

Here are some photos of my amazing & exhausting whirlwind trip in Europe. We’re almost at the end. I’m in Germany right now and we leave tomorrow. I have mixed feelings. I miss my bed. I miss my cat. I miss knowing how things (systems) work.
But it’s a bit depressing to go back to…you know.

Scenes from London. We got lost/separated from our group last night when we missed a Tube connection. An adventure! I slept like a corpse. This morning I had an English breakfast…but wasn’t brave enough to try the toast w/beans. (Tomorrow I will.)

Feeling like making Blue Sky my new home. It’s quieter. And I like quiet. (We’ll see.)
Watching Adolescence on Netflix. It’s so disturbing. On so many different levels. We are an Fd up species. 🤦🏼♀️

Because I’m crap at communication I’m not actually leaving yet. That’s about 5 days away still. But my HAIR is ready.
Okay, London. No more big fires and airport shutdowns, please. I just got my hair done, located my smile again, and I’m ready to walk 10K steps every day for a week with 30 teens and strange adults I don’t know (plus my own teen who I love very very much but she gets grumpy fast).

@efevans.bsky.social I’m so glad you’re here! I’m very bad about checking in here. I try to remember to on the weekends. But I’m glad you’re here.

Here’s me lip syncing to one of my life’s theme songs. It was for Wink Wednesday but we’ll call this Flirtatious Friday. Just pretend I’m Dick Van Dyke in drag.

Went out with my girl,
To do capitalism
Before the rich win.
She said no to a
Selfie, because her hair was
Not perfect—like her.
She’s perfect as is
And I wish she saw herself
Through my eyes, with love.
