If anyone would like to help buy peas for ducklings (and chocolate and books and a whole house rebuild), you can buy soap from my website! veronicafoaleessentials.com.au Website automatically does shipping to Aus, UK, US, NZ, and Canada.

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

You are here:

Darling Shadow. You were much loved. RIP beautiful boy 💔

Winning an election doesn’t mean you get to disregard laws passed by Congress and signed into law by the former president.

MIL in recovery. No updates other than that available (which sounds ominous).

MIL update: Late night conversation with surgeon re: operation on MIL’s hip & femur. No op would be very bad; outcome from operation is likely to be not great too. The kicker is she can’t get a formal diagnosis for dementia while in hospital & she’s now likely to be in hospital for months.

MIL UPDATE: Along with her actual broken leg (there was some conjecture she hadn't broken it) she also has a hairline fracture of her hip...where she has a 10yo replacement. We think it happened on her last fall (GP said it "looked OK"). She varies between compos and confused all too easily.

MIL’s nursing home just called. She had another fall overnight (her fifth in eight days), and this time she has broken her leg. She’s in the process of getting diagnosed for dementia, and is railing against the effects of that (understandably). Supporting her is very hard work.

The last few months, and especially days, have been very rough. I’m not up to writing about it but I’ll repost from hubby to keep you lovely people in the loop.

pls take a 10s emotional break and look at my cat

The wind gusts are devastating. Truly a hurricane of fire. Video: @stuartpalley.bsky.social

The grief of caring for an elderly parent that is still alive but not really “here” is like nothing I have ever known before 😞

Sometimes, life gives you a #platypus coming down a waterfall. 🤩 #Tasmania #platypuses #fieldwork #MammalWatching #WildOz

Watching live news coverage of the Pacific Palisades fire and Steve Guttenburg appears out of the smoke to provide a PSA.

Exactly this

Right (German) BlueSky. You up for a quest. While at my dad's at Xmas, i found a picture and postcard from my godfather, who i have never met. He was a German student. Manfred Maywyrm (?) from Bad Homburg studying in the UK in 1980. Good friend to my parents. They lost touch. Help me find him?

I have FINALLY reopened the soap shop! I am very excited about this. veronicafoaleessentials.com.au

Well played. And frighteningly accurate.
