Try not to dwell on tomorrow. You can't change it so just go to the appointment, the medical staff will do their best for you. You have those little mites and we have carpet beetles and some kind of little moths here in the house. Our house is 40 yrs old and I'm sure the carpet is the original one. I thought maybe the beetles and moths rode home with us from my dad's place last year. We brought a set of books home and some of moms clothes. But a few months ago I found the months were thriving in our birdseed. I got rid of the birdseed and the moths have dwindled down. I haven't put birdseed out since the Wildlife and Fisheries said not to. They say the bird virus is over now and it is ok to feed them again. I don't want to bring those darn moths more food

So that's what they are? Red clover mites? I never knew. Those tiny things can bite, if I'm recalling my insects correctly. As for the world behaving, I suppose it depends on who is making the judgement. As for us behaving joyfully, regardless of the state of the world, I think we have no choice. Like you--finding gifts in the scary and unknown. Good luck tomorrow!

Mixing it up sounds a lot different. "I gotta go" and "I don't want this". I think this is what I'd probably say to myself.

Anyone else wondering where the “tiny red clover mites” came from?

Can’t wait to hear what your day reveals and I love seeing the muses continue to evolve.

As it relates to tomorrow… #Cure

BTW, it’s #NaturePhotographyDay so the tiny red clover mites qualify, but I was thinking something more dramatic like an Arizona sunset or the Pacific Coast…

I can’t post here so will share via text… 😊

Every day can be a surprise! Nia emitting anything close to a roar? Writist inviting red clover mites into her study? Seizing the opportunity to check on screen printing? Yowza!

“What will this day be like?

I wonder.

What will my future be?

I wonder.”

Continuing through the lyrics of “I Have Confidence,” from the Sound of Music, suggests that a good portion may have been penned for you! And now, here you are! Confidence and all.

With your day largely planned and those plans being executed, I have confidence in you to perform them. Good luck tomorrow.

We don't see the beetles flying but they are in the pantry crawling around the canned goods. I put all flours, sweetners etc in air tight containers before putting on the shelf. But I find those beetles crawling on the pages of our books, in the amongst the pots and pans etc. I read where spreading boric acid on the carpets and floors will kill them. That's fine for the ones on the floor but they are in the cupboards and bookcases too. We have 3 indoor cats and I don't want them to get into the boric acid. I'm sure that would cause major damage to them. We will just live with the beetles and moths. I mush them when I find them. The moths aren't so bad now.
