My husband and I need different housing. We are downsizing from a family of 5 to 3. We spent a year house hunting as FHA buyers. We had no luck. Do we even try to buy, or look for a smaller rental?

Sick of being sick. This is the second time since the start of the year that I've been knocked out of commission.

There are so many students and staff sick with all of the bugs. My kiddo doesn't have school today. No Valentine celebrations at the homestead - hubby has been sick, and like so many, we can not justify the expense. It's okay because we had two great dates in a row two weeks ago.

It's Count Day for Michigan public schools today. Why it is during the peak of flu season and shit weather is beyond me. May the odds be ever in our favor!

Man, the Russians (Soviets) played the long game. Kruschev said they'd bring down the US from the inside without having to fire a single shot. Who knew it would happen via South Africa with a useful idiot?

I'm choosing to find hope as suggested by Heather Cox Richardson. She has said that being happy in the face of fear-mongering weakens their chaos. This morning, while walking my dog, I drank in the peace of quiet and glittering snowflakes.

Listening to The Division Bell today. It transports me back to being in college and taking walks along Lake Superior and watching freighters at the ore docks. What great days I had in Marquette #NMUWildcats

I'm torn between trying to buy a house and getting the fuck out of this country.

I left a message with Sen. Slotkin asking her why she is approving cabinet appointees. I emphasized that we are in a Constitutional crisis, and this is NOT business as usual. Her message stated that they have been receiving heavy call volume. Join me, Michiganders, Slotkin and Peters need to listen

I was once married to a narcissist. He was emotionally, verbally, and physically abusive. With 47 in office, I have the same emotional and physical response. I feel stuck, and I NEED to do something. I've donated to and joined the ACLU, but I feel like I need to do more. #DVsurvivor

I work in education. I move locations, and everyone at the location today is a Trumper. I don't fucking get it.

This weekend provided a much-needed reprieve from the chaos, but I woke at least twice from panic. My mom is widowed, and my sister lives on SS. I want action for what is happening, not just lip service. What actions can we take to fight this hostile takeover?

Walk with my dog in golden light, then a date with my hubby to see a play.

I'm curious how other left-leaning progressives discuss social and political issues in front of and with their children? My children are widely spaced, but I want all of them to decide for themselves. However, wanting them to be compassionate, to me, means being progressive/liberal.

Has LinkedIn always been a political shitshow? Where do I look for opportunities in the event my position is eliminated?
