Another inert day. The weather is grey, dull, warm. I had probably better make an effort to get out, once Helen gets back who is the only one qualified to use our getting-out machine.
No knitting, either. No excuse.
I heard Biden’s speech. I was 3/4’s asleep — it was after midnight, Edinburgh time. It seemed to me pretty banal. Obama’s continued silence continues to worry me. American politics will now, presumably, cease to absorb for a while.
Archie came to see me, ostensibly not for lunch but in fact he ate more than I could.
Wordle: my starters gave me two browns and a green. I used a Jean-word in line three and now had two greens and a great.y-reduced range of possible places for the brown. I got it in four. The home team were evenly divided between threes and fours, and split along gender lines.
In DC or thereabouts, Theo got four and Roger three.
I just read on AP News that Obama is preparing his formal endorsement of Harris and has been supportive behind the scenes. Source was "anonymous," but I sure hope it proves to be true!
ReplyDeleteThe media here is saying Obama has been holding off only because he does not want to be seen to "crown" Harris if someone else puts their hand up and there needs to be an election. Apart from that they are saying he is very supportive of her. Here in Downunder there is more than usual interest - and concern.
ReplyDeletenice you could see Archie today!
