After al these years in Portland I’m going Pietro’s pizza for the first time today. I’ve been hearing about this pizza for 15years, it better live up to the hype.

Wind gusts of 40mph will have you second guessing your choices when you’re hiking near a cliff.

The Columbia River looks an ocean right now in Corbett. It’s still dark, so I can’t take a picture but Lawd it is crazy wild due to the wind.

Not Greg ruminating in the basement trying to figure out when he contracted Covid. Like that does not matter, just go to bed like a normal person. 😭

Hike 7/52 first we’re going to Columbia Hills to see the petroglyphs (Tsagagalal), then on to Hamilton Mountain/Rodney falls loop 7.2 miles elevation gain of 2,198 ft. We will see 2 mountains Hood and Adams, waterfalls and the Columbia gorge.

recently wrote a poem in indigenous women off and on rez areas inspired by a friend "woven between worlds" lemme know what you think 🙂‍↕️

There is still beauty in this world

What if the Blazers NEVER lose again?!

There’s literally nothing inviting about social media to me anymore. I use to want to have a voice and community in SM, but at this point it’s so much hate, racism, misogyny and struggle Olympics with no thought.

I’m having an in clinic procedure this morning and am going under general anesthesia, which is always a little scary for me. Please put a prayer or good energy up for ya girl if you don’t mind.

This guy regularly cooperates with an extremely far right photographer to supposedly document the failures of Portland city government. He and his comrade were never authentic "critics" of the city who actually cared about homeless people. www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/0...

Please boycott New Seasons n the Portland area. 2 years without a fair contract is ridiculous and bad business. My nephew is a NSLU member and deserves to be treated fairly.

I just want to remind white people it’s not ok to use Black, Native or any other POC as your sounding board when it comes to how awful you feel about this administration. Transform those words to action. We have enough to process.

I have been working in office for the past 2 weeks after being absent & working from home for over a month. This office baby was suffering but she is back to being her beautiful self.

The sun is peeking out, just in time for my walk to University of Portland and back.

Portland area New Seasons labor union calls for strike for WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 27th. Do NOT cross the line. New Seasons Market is not taking the workers seriously. Support the workers

Everyone in the house was up at 5:30am, my niece is home, my youngest son is visiting, moms still visiting and my partner & I wake up early. What I appreciate is everyone is just doing their thing, no unnecessary talking. Loudest one in the house is Fred the cat.

I had my one month kidney surgery follow up on Monday, I just received the results of my kidney function tests. Blood, urine and CT scan shows the remaining 1/2 & full kidney are doing REALLY good! I can start incorporating more foods, which will help put some weight back on.

let all the drama over there distract me from my favorite subject: weather patterns in the PNW. We have some very interesting stuff going on. Bomb cyclone baby!
