I don't understand what is happening in the world right now. A friend of my daughters is thinking about going to Ukraine to fight with the Ukrainians. He has no military experience. None.
Gawd.
In other news, we saw a coyote in the back yard this morning. No wonder Felix was barking.

Henry talked about going to Ukraine and fighting with the Ukrainians, and I rolled my eyes and said, "Why don't you drive around and help some homeless people?" Honestly, men.
Some years ago we were introduced to a very old man who had fought with the international brigade against fascism in Spain. He was 16 and in school, never told anybody beforehand, just "could not see any other way" and packed a bag and headed to Spain. On foot at first.
I just watched footage of civilians blocking the road to Mariupol in eastern Ukraine. Literally leaning their bodies against the Russian armoured vehicles. I am humbled. But I am not going to encourage anybody to take up arms. Yet.
Elizabeth!
LOL
It's like the Spanish civil war. I hope it turns out better.
