Sigh. If you’re anti-Trump, why would you post multiple photos of him one after the other? I really don’t understand the “this is awful so I must share it” mentality. (Yes, I do unfollow. No, I don’t expect anyone to change. You do you! It’s cool! This is just a whine & grumble post.)

All dressed up and ready to go! I went with the short dress. (My husband & son are with me, but I cropped out their faces.)

The fancy awards gala is tonight! So of course I messed about in the flowerbed after lunch, then took a nap & now my hair is all weird. It starts in 3 hours, so I have plenty of time to take another shower & start over, but I’m probably going to walk my dog instead. Glamour isn’t really my forte. 👩‍🌾

Zuck: The average American has three friends.

Pride month approaches and queer people are fighting for the right to pee in bathrooms again. Speaking only for myself as a raging homosexual, fight for me this Pride, allies. Do the heavy lifting so I can do a little less. Having to perform my humanity all the time is exhausting.

Get in loser. We’re posting lock screens.

Related facts that you are welcome to interpret. 😏 I liberated a button today. It needed a good home. It was sad at the mall shop. The dress I bought at that same mall shop was missing a button. I had scissors in my purse. Tiny acts of rebellion against our capitalist overlords earns GOOD karma.

The Temu tariff stories from the people who wrote reviews of not being able to smell Yankee candles during Covid lockdown.

3 more weeks! I get to delete or unfollow every K-12 school email or social media account in 3 weeks. I’m so ready. I gave so many hours to our local schools, and got a lot of heartache in return. I’m so ready for my youngest to graduate so I can be DONE too. Other people can pick up the torch.

Lily & I almost got run over by a young driver who either didn’t know or didn’t care that a pedestrian crossing signal means people get to walk & drivers need to wait. It was close enough that I screamed & scrambled backwards, pulling Lily out of danger with her leash.

Blergh. I need to buy a dress for the awards gala next week - the one where my kid will be honored. I’d much rather buy plants than an expensive dress I’ll only wear once!

One of the best feelings is finding out someone stood up for you when you weren't around. One of the worst is finding out no one did.

Happy bunny & egg day!

Snapshot: It was 80° earlier this week, and now it’s snowing. Oldest got new glasses & is wandering around the house commenting on how much better she can see. Youngest is listening to a classic jazz record. Husband is playing a video game. The dog is sleeping. I’m reading. It’s a cozy day.

My poor kid. He’s been watching The Beef. I haven’t. But I hang out with him occasionally while he’s watching it. And I ask him questions. Because I don’t know what’s going on. 😂 I have become my mother with her constant questions & interruptions & my poor kid has become me, patiently answering.

Coming up with my skeets

I painted a hare smelling some roses. It’s my first commissioned painting!! I really hope the friend who asked for it loves it.
