Arkansas native (yes, I know šŸ˜©), making the most of life in 'The Natural State.' I dabble in photographyā€”there's no shortage of stunning scenery here to capture, even if Iā€™m still honing my skills. And when it comes to seasons, summer is my favorite.

Republican congressman Keith Self introduced transgender Representative Sarah McBride as "Mr. McBride." Sarah snapped back and called him madam chair. Dem Congressman Bill Keating went off on Rep. Self and adjourned the meeting over his lack of decorum and purposeful targeting of Sarah McBride.

This afternoon, my kitchen window became a little slice of paradise. My bird of paradiseā€”over 20 years oldā€”unfurled a bloom for the first time in years. A fiery orange crest with striking blue details. Have you ever had a moment like this?

The eyes didnā€™t move, didnā€™t blinkā€”just stared, as though they were waiting, watching from the dark. #levi #homemadefort #persian #eyes

Wow, seems like a lot of "Mary" bots have joined recently. Mary bot = individual account with Mary in the title and/or a photo of a female in a tank top, most likely showing off their assets while eating at a fancy restaurant or on the beach. #block #bot #notinterested

After so long, it finally felt the need to grace us with a bloom... I wait with hopeful anticipation to witness its full grandeur. #birdofparadise #bloom #orange #elegance #resilience šŸŒ± šŸŖ“ (23 year old Bird of Paradise)

Sleepy boys this morning! Colton & Levi. #cats #persian #sleepy #fuzzy

Sometimes, all you need is a soft, warm spot to curl up and drift off, wrapped in the feeling that, for now, everything is just fine. #persian #cat #thankful
