Iβm listening to #VenCo by Cherie Dimaline. Dimalineβs writing is always fantastic. I am loving the characters, the settings, the word choices and cadences of the sentences, the rich exploration of womenβs relationships and ways of loving and supporting each other. It is so soothing to my heart to come into a world like this, full of witches, which could so easily end up grossly cisnormative, but to trust the author and to have that trust rewarded. #amreading #bookstodon
My son decided we should eat out last night. I don't want to cook, but eating out is not my fave. The compromise was that we'd get it to go and head to one of our beach parks. I'm still numb, but I think it might have been helpful? At least for an hour.

The sort of novel I *never* get tired of. The inclusive witchy feminist variety. Women writers, just please keep βem coming. #VenCo #CherieDimaline #fantasy #witches

5) Thursday, 26 January. A video today to show the wind.

5) Bike rental kiosk. I wonder if it looks as bad on the inside as the park ranger booth did.
When we drive over to my sonβs Dr appointment in East Ventura I saw that the roads and lots were open already.
And, of course, the sky is beautiful in this photo, too. :)

4) some of the mess and the clean up machines. I do not know what the crane is for, however. The roads and parking lots look like they will be ready by the weekend. The beach will take a lot longer. And if it rains againβ¦.

2) this is the creepiest looking driftwood I have ever seen. Itβs like a cross between a spider and a squid. π·οΈ π¦

Just wanted to show off our beautiful blue sky today. :)
I can tell by the way everyone is acting that we really missed Ventura. Weβve been in Camarillo for the last five months and itβs just not for people like us.

Alright, I finished my coffee, guess I need to get serious. Itβs raining all day, but tomorrow itβs not supposed to rain until after we get moved in. Weβve got this new place until May 31. So, now I can start worrying about what happens then. Fun, eh?

I will miss the view of the Channel Islands that this abode affords. :) And, believe it or not, we will have to adjust to having no freeway noise all day and night. My daughter will use an app that creates the noise so she can sleep better.
The sun starting to break through over the 101.

When the going gets toughβ¦
I went to the beach this morning to take photos of the carnage. These are from my phone. Iβm still editing the ones from my camera.

The weirdest thing about where we live is I have not heard a firework all night. Not sure if itβs because people here are more law abiding than the illegal firework capital of SoCal or if the freeway we live right next to just drowns it all out.

Het is belachelijk maar waar; ik vind dit dus oprecht lekker!
