Big storm is supposed to roll through here this week. So I changed some plans. Now it looks minimal. Happens every damn time.

Spotted this in a parking lot in a town considered the buckle of the Bible belt - Lynchburg, VA.

I'd fire anyone who wrote a story about the political dumpster fire we're living through now. Who would have believed it?

Somebody somewhere Needs an endless old road Filled with flowers today

Stupid, stupid, stupid. *sigh*

I thought there would be a handbasket . . .

Favorite day of trip to Turks and Caicos - snorkeling! Probably accidentally swallowed a bit of sea water, though.

The start of something delicious!

RIP Jimmy Carter. Better statesman than president, but led by example. NYTimes www.nytimes.com/live/2024/12...

Guess who will be in office when we reach that point?

Happy first day of winter ❄️✨️📖

Good people exist. They don't have to be Christian.

Love me some Classical music! The structure, intricate harmonies. New York Philharmonic String Quartet.

I spend a least a few minutes every login muting bullshit accounts following me. Tiring. There heeeeere.

Sometimes that social battery goes riiiight from 73% to 0% like oh no I must have my brightness cranked up too far, like either put me back in dark mode or I’m gonna need to recharge for a while

I swear new stuff is added every year. Forest, VA.

Third and final concert of the season. Whew!

2 concerts down, one to go. Busy season for musicians!

I like the Discover tab. So many nice people and great ideas. Unlike that other shithole.

My yard chicken (guard chicken?), rear, got a new companion today.

Yeah, been there, done that, haven't regretted it.

Meeting to discuss a wiki site with a stakeholder this morning. All of this was news to him. FML.

Old people's nightcap . . .

One concert down, two to go! (A couple of hams in the cello section - I'm the one with white hair)

First morning in ages without an alarm set. Slept over 9 hours! Guess I needed it.

Ain't nobody gettin' handmade gifts from me this year - I've got an orchestra concert, choral concert, and cello choir coming up in the next three weeks!

Truth.

Seasons changed, so I made a new face on the reverse side! Of course only the little one didn't rot . . .
