I'm a UCLA fan. They lost when I wore my UCLA T-shirt. I bought a UCLA hat. They lost when I wore that. Today they lost when I wore both the T-shirt and the hat. It's almost like what I wear doesn't help them win.

I thought we were done with land grabs and opposed other countries who do so. I'm appalled Trump is talking about Greenland, Panama, and Canada and saddened there isn't a monumental outcry against his ideas/plans.

Opinions are good Informed opinions are better Informed opinions expressed civilly are best Throw in some humor and that's a cherry on top

Jesus: If anyone slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. As for the one who wants to sue you and take away your shirt, let him have your coat as well. And if anyone forces you to go one mile, go with him two. Christians (including me): But my rights!!

You did it for me You did it for love It's Your victory Jesus, You are enough

Good move, hope the US follows. san.com/cc/uk-bans-p...

Late night package deliveries are creepy. I'm not a fan.

Buc-ee's is considering building in our town. The nextdoor app and local FB groups have gone bananas. Summary: If Buc-ee's comes all the oxygen in the area will deplete and all the humans, flora, and fauna will die. Or Our town budget will overflow and we'll be able to buy world peace.

I love Colorado. This guy was right by our driveway.

Five nativities in the half bath / powder room.

@bsky.app Is BlueSky joining the Fediverse?

Our ability to change national politics is near 0%. Our ability to love our neighbor is 100%.

Nap time

This is dishonorable and a horrible abuse of power. apnews.com/article/bide...

Finished. The books were wonderful. One thing bothered me. The enemies of Narnia were the dark skinned Calormen. The color of their skin contrasted to the "fair skinned" Narnians was mentioned quite often. I never noticed that when I was younger. I guess I'm woke to such things now.

It's not Black Friday It's not the day after Thanksgiving It's Christmas Tree Day!! And Christmas music! Crank up the Christmas music!

Happy Thanksgiving to all. May we spread love to all our family, friends, neighbors, and even our enemies.

I have some MAGA followers here. Welcome to them. Keep it civil and we'll be fine

Formula for exhaustion: 6 year old,, 5 year old, 4 year old, and 2 year old grandkids being watched by grandparents in their 60s four days per week. We love the little cuties, but phew, it's tiring.

Although I enjoy politics and am compelled to speak out, I want with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength to be known for loving God and loving my neighbor.

I hate the fear of immigrants I see in so many Christians. There are people I know to be loving who have turned to scorn. The fear has brought this on. Have faith. Be loving. Love your neighbor.

Church day!!

Sportsball. Go Bruins! Beat 'SC!!

Follow @jenniferevalent.bsky.social to see these wonderful quotes and pictures. They calm me.

Retirement update: cleaned out the sock drawer today.

So tired of Christians dropping "woke" in a conversation as a derogatory term as if all around them must be in agreement. I speak up when I can as I seek to influence those who are open to change.

Have opinions. Learn. Grow. Research. Share your opinions. Hear other's opinions. But, and this is important, do it all with humility.

In the Voyage of the Dawn Treader when Eustace was a dragon and trying to scratch the dragon skin off and didn't get anywhere and Aslan then did it and it hurt but then it was wonderful when it came off, that's a good Christian analogy right there.

My 16yo son said he wants me to buy lumber at Lowe's, drive across the street to get McDonald's, drive back to Lowe's, use the lumber to build a table in the parking lot, and sit at the table we built to eat the food. I told him if this is reposted 1000 times, I'll do it.

Jesus: Love your neighbor MAGA Christians: Unless they're here illegally, then we can uproot their lives, separate them from their children, and send them away.
