Respectfully, please step down and let someone like Nancy Pelosi, who will stand up to the Republicans, take your place.

That was stunning. It was so peaceful. I was told they filmed a Star Wars movie there.

Ha, I used having an imaginary elephant would be worse than a horse.
Todayās was better. A person, a stranger takes a seat across from you , and you respond by telling them about your life.
Write a letter using I have news over and over again.

I have one small complaint. The food is not very good. Iām at the Saccharum, and the food at the hotel and the cafes in this area is not good, but this was gorgeous.

You can have my writing cues for today. They kicked my ass.
1. There are worse things than having an imaginary horse as your friend. ( You have to write it in 7 minutes. )
2. Go wild, writing a creative story using the words: ladder, a green crayon, and a glass of water in the story. (40 min.)

Thatās nice to hear. How are you doing with learning Portuguese? I find the language extremely difficult. I can speak Spanish, a few words in Italian, but I can read it and some French, but Portuguese is kicking my ass. I didn't think it would be so difficult for me.

We could also combine them. We had 50 minutes to write tonight which is the most time weāve been given. All the writers have been writers with the instructor for years, and theyāre all amazing. Iām the only newbie, but Iām learning so much, and there isn't a maga in the group. š¤£

Itās timed writing. They give you cues to write about. Tonight, our session was from 4:00 to 6:00pm. We had to write about :
ā I won't be able to write from the grave, so let me tell you what I love: Or
ā I won't be able to write from the grave, so let me tell you what I hate. ā~

The problem is leaving your children. Itās not as easy for them to get jobs overseas. Iām working on getting my Austrian citizenship, so there are places I can live in the EU, but everyone in Lisbon is telling me their government is going far-right fascist.

We went to the Botanical gardens yesterday. The Island is stunning. I hate to go back to the US on Monday. Our country has lost its mind.

Madeira is gorgeous. Madeira is self-governing and not tied to Portugal?

More pictures from the Island of Maderia. Itās beautiful here, but this writing seminar is kicking my ass but in a good way, and everyone in the group hates MAGA.

No, but it is something they copied from the one in Brazil. Lisbon looks like a European San Francisco, but nicer and cleaner. It has the same kind of hills, too. Iāve had a great time. Weāre flying to Madeira tomorrow. This is my friend and me with the Golden Gate of Lisbon.

The man is insane. The US doesn't have castles, and if youāre making a movie that takes place in another country you have to pay more? What kind of goverment dictates where movies are allowed to be made?

Iāll believe it when I see it. There is no way in hell that theyāre touching him while heās president because of that DOJ missive that says you can't arrest a President while heās in office.

My cousin is autistic and no one knew what was wrong with him in the 60ās but we knew there was something wrong. They didn't give it a name.
