Day 3110: Be the Bee

What does “be the bee” mean? Does it mean be busy? Be hard-working? Be sweet? Be a survivor? Be useful to others?

It means that I saw this yesterday on Twitter:

Let’s be the bee as we look at my other images for today.

Are you going to be watching this video I found on YouTube by searching “be the bee”?

Starting today, I’m going to be the bee and continue to be grateful for all the helpful people I meet, including YOU!

Day 2970: There’s no better time

There’s no better time than now to reveal the inspiration for today’s post title (with thanks to the New York Times):

There’s no better time for

• nourishment,
• self care,
• a competent and empathic U.S. President,
• repairing injustices,
• hope,
• addressing serious problems,
• humor,
• questions,
• answers,
• acceptance,
• love,
• my 2nd Pfizer vaccine, and
• sharing my latest images.

There’s no better time to share this music I was listening to yesterday on my walk:

There’s no better time to share this live version of Take 6 performing “Don’t Give Up.”

There’s no better time for you to leave a comment, below.

There’s no better time for gratitude, so thanks to all who help me create this daily blog, including YOU.

Day 2958: Plans

My plans for yesterday included seeing my fabulous dentist Dr. Del Castillo about an unplanned missing filling.

My plans for today include singing my new and timely lyrics for Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” at a remote Open Mic, which you can hear in this planned YouTube video.

My plans for my vacation this week included testing out a new microphone before tonight’s performance. Because of the distortion on the high notes, I plan to post a new video of “Vaccine” tonight right after the Open Mic.

Before I share my other plans for today with you, I plan to share some thoughts about plans:

• I enjoy plans when they combine structure and creative freedom.
• There is a big difference between worries and plans, although we tend to confuse and combine the two.
• It is possible to plan without worrying and I plan to continue to get better at that.

My plans for today include sharing all my planned and unplanned photos from yesterday with you.

I hope your plans for today include leaving a comment about this “Plans” post.

Every day, my plans include ending my daily blog with gratitude, so thanks to all whose plans included stopping here today, including YOU.
