I spent most of today watching the impeachment trial and then the vote. I am still fascinated by and grateful that we as citizens get to watch the American government at work. Even if I am not proud of the work itself. The live streaming makes it easier to hold our officials accountable for the actions they take when representing us. I understand and respect that everyone chooses how they spend their time. To me, this was a worthwhile way to spend my day.
Even though I was very disappointed in the outcome.
I can say more but there’s no point.
To ensure I didn’t spiral, I then took a nice long walk and a nice long bath. Self-care all the way.
Yes to showing up and learning about our political system. Yes to fresh air. And yes to baths.
