“P!nk ALL I KNOW so far” and “Nomadland”. Two completely opposite positions in the socio-economic spectrum. Both starring people I love and find inspiring in their own way.
If I were to have aimed for hollywood, I would want to be Frances McDormand (did you know her birth name is Cynthia Ann Smith?). Her choice of Indie characters, lack of buying into the stereotypes and marriage of 37 years is something to idolize!!!
If I could sing… Alecia Beth Moore stands apart from the world. She ranks up there for me with Cher and Madonna, women who manage to take on the world on their own, no last name, no attachment necessary. And she seems to be rocking motherhood and marriage while on tour. She impresses me.
Nomadland, it honestly made me want to choose a mobile estate. I think I am working my business towards being able to take off across the country, stopping to do my work wherever there is internet. There is no reason I need to wait to retirement to road trip. I have a couple years to pay down some debts and then… why not. Now, all of that is not to say I am in a comparable situation. I would be doing it by choice. Many people do it out of necessity. I do love the concept that I would not be homeless. Just house less.
I worked for 6 hours on a file today, got ahead, came home to put the heating pad on my hip, and back. I did manage to cut out the material for the next three chairs but didn’t feel like sitting more to sew them.
Jake asked if he could stay with me for Father’s Day weekend. It makes me so happy he is making good efforts to see Emmy.
