Happy Birthday RantBrother

#NationalDisabilityEmploymentAwarenessMonth

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RANT BROTHER.

Happy 60th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis, a topic most emphatically NOT occupying RantMom's mind immediately before or after RantBrother's birth.

RantWoman  is not even going to try to think very hard about why this Wes Daniels piece The Red Sea and becoming a people is what prompted her to get on the ball and make sure there is a binge blog entry for RantBrother's birthday; RantWoman is simply going to accept the nudge. RantWoman may or may not elaborate about why the themes of this post have almost nothing to do with anything RantWoman understands about RantBrother and his current situation.

Also, RantWoman is holding in the Light a number of people she knows whose brothers have died recently.

As far as reaching out to loved ones, that is difficult specifically with RantBrother. Instead:

--RantWoman is HOT, Hot, hot about making sure kids with visual impairment get help early. This is as much meeting people all the time on the bus who talk about visual impairment issues in ways that make it clear that their lives would have been better if care about the topic had not been neglected when they were younger.

--RantWoman celebrates the ways Irrepressible Nephew's school experiences included lots of messages about anti-bullying and also about the okayness of awkward realities.

RantWoman honors RantBrother's creativity in the past about many home management and landscaping questions and tries not to grieve too hard about RantBrother no longer being about to hold together thoughts to organize such efforts. That is part of RantWoman's #NDEAM meditations.

Enough for now!
