Struck up a conversation and I said I liked her flag
And she said she sews and would send me a Ukrainian
Flag. Sometimes it’s the little things…. But this war has made many of us see how much we have in common.
She FaceTimed me today and we got to meet!
What a kind lady!

to Zelenskyy.

For one thing, Z inthe cyrillic alphabet looks more like a 3.

But everytime I see one, I wish it were.

Your house is so neat! We never put flags up, and with some of the crazy dumpster supporters I will not start now. Maybe a Canadian flag, my father always wanted to put one up for Canada day 😹

It’s good to know there really are some generous, compassionate and decent people in this world!

My neighbor 2 doors down put up a Ukrainian flag right next to his American flag last week. It pleasantly surprised me. He didn’t seem to me like someone who would do that.

Your house is so pretty, BTW!

on what passes for a major highway in my rural area. A lot of people have to drive past my house to get to work.

We never fail to have several political signs in our yard. It drives them nuts.
