A new president has been elected and Joe Biden will soon be president of the United States. Biden´s  inauguration will take place in the middle of January, and til then, Trump will have time to make a smooth transition. It is a little unusual that a sitting president isn’t re-elected. It should also be noted that when Trump was elected he got many votes. He was popular. But democracy rules. People change their minds. Perhaps the Corona virus has influenced the election result. Never mind.

The USA is so different from Sweden, and we cannot really understand that the Democrats may be similar to the right wing in Sweden. The American constitution is complicated but democratic. I suppose Trump is not so happy now, and, on the contrary, Biden is smiling. Tried to find appropriate music for both of them, and found a song with the Eagles. A nice song to just play and listen to. On a November Sunday afternoon.

The second wave of the Corona virus makes me even more careful. I had plans of going to see sweetie (Lady) and cutie (Molly) this weekend. That has to wait. Unfortunately. They are in quarantine and so am I, more or less. I went for spinning today as usual and I had plans for dog walks. But no. Distancing and hand washing instead.

America is counting votes. Halloween is over. I have read some American poems and they are so sad. Definitely poetry for halloween. That made me listen to music this afternoon to get into a good. A happy mood. The corona virus affects us all, and it is important to keep up the good spirit to keep going. It is not that cold yet and that makes me stay in autumn. But I started to think a little of December and advent.

Anyway. I thought of last December when I found a pop-up dog shop. It was only there for a few days and ice cream was sold for dogs. I couldn’t buy ice cream for sweetie and cutie, but I bought some dog crisps and dog bones for them. They are so spoiled! At the pop-up shop I met this dog. It was a very cold afternoon I remember. Always nice to meet dogs and have a chat.

Votes are still being counted in the USA. I thought of America yesterday and I made a classic American carrot cake. It is the time of the year for carrots. Good for my afternoon tea. With American poetry. My safe Corona life.
