I had a bit of a rough health year 2024. Broken bones. Some serious bleeding like three buckets that night. Gracious be for the helpers. Good news my platelets are pretty normal now. My blood pressure is generally low, seriously low during the blood stream, but now healthy, if still lowish range. A lot of … Continue reading It’s Gonna Be Spring

So this just distracting me on a cloudy, light peaceful snow, February Sunday morning. My namesake Grandmother was a fierce, and pretty good, bridge player. Whenever she visited, it would be bridge. The ones who did play, laughed so much. Me, playing cards never caught on. I would get out a book. When my son … Continue reading Bored Games

Just love it best quote. And real. Wish Jamie Raskin was my Representative. My Senators are great. In my district, though, House person a do nothing lump of coal. Next best one showed up inbox today. New York Review of Books. Headline Wag the DOGE. Raskin's great idea. A national class action lawsuit for cause. … Continue reading A Rally A Day Keeps The Fascists Away

Grateful for some good memories. In a time of trouble, do I wish good memories for anyone, everyone. Yes. And better times. My son was born on Valentines Day. My husband had bought me some chocolate cheesecake (late pregnancy craving) and we were watching some film, can't remember what, on the television at home. But … Continue reading Valentines Day

Judicial. Thank goodness. Can't keep up with all the rulings but much legitimate. Congressional, generally impotent. My Senators, Durbin and Duckworth, pretty great. My district rep, whoever he is, pretty useless. Critter and the orcs can't touch entitlements (yet). Show the evidence. That fight, no giving up. Critter and the orcs will lose. Can't pollute … Continue reading Checks And Balances

I think I'm going back to veg. Disgusted with meat, dairy OK. Blueberries and strawberries, how lucky in February. Uh oh critter's idiotic tariffs. So maybe not. It's March 23. 2025. I am back to veg. About six weeks now. I did like that sliced rare roast beef, and on Saint Patrick's Day oh the … Continue reading Bon Appetit

Good boy. Good girl. Couldn't care a hoot about violent sports in crammed stadiums (had to do that attendance performance in one of my jobs...hard to bear...while I was throwing up pregnant with a demanding day job then an infant at home). Overfed humans staring at huge television screens, stuffed and screaming. Roman Colosseum. Not … Continue reading Puppy Bowl Coming

I don't want the squatter messing with my life. Bunch of bros (repulsive concept), high school, maybe, having access to my personal data. Don't want them messing with my life. Dems have been showing some spine. Outside Treasury Department. Now overnight Senate floor. Progressive Congressional Caucus this morning. "Get Off the Mat, Get In the … Continue reading Resistance

Quoting heroine Jasmine Crockett. "Unelected, unvetted, unconfirmed" squatter now has access to federal payment systems. If that doesn't send chills, you're not paying attention. Squatter, rich on federal contracts for crashed rockets and loser social media platform, now has your personal data. Meanwhile figure out how to protect oneself. If even possible. Just what we … Continue reading Another Layer Of Fear

This morning no posting about the crazy. Which is keeping getting worse. Take a break. But I can't. Just a few minutes of MSNBC or the Bulwark. Just a few. Control myself. I love that the mornings come a little earlier and the evenings last a little longer now. Not spring yet but coming. No … Continue reading Sunny Saturday Morning
