ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not at our borders. It is in the White House.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

This looks great! I love iron on transfers. It makes things so easy. I will definitely check it out!

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

Two of my favorites as well!

These are great!

you’re fired. wait you’re rehired. email us a list of things you’ve done today wait forget it you’re fired again. come back your job was important. you’re fired. or hired. come in to the office. wait the office has no computers go home. we are the department of government efficiency.

The only thing Democrats thought of doing was holding up little ping pong paddles?!? It looks like our Democracy is being auctioned off - and it is. Why didn’t more support Rep. Al Green? I’m embarrassed I even held out hope for meaningful actions from this group.

Today - economic boycott.

What genre are you interested in? A recent favorite was Tom Lake by Ann Patchett. Meryl Streep reads it and she is phenomenal.

Book 8 of 2025. God of the Woods by @lizmoorebooks.bsky.social. I absolutely loved this one. Two intertwined mysteries, fully drawn characters, a setting that felt very grounded and true, and a satisfying ending. 5 out of 5 stars.

Currently reading God of the Woods by Liz Moore!

I was at a Town Hall with my Congressman this week. This teacher expressed what so many are feeling.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Book 7 of 2025. The Naturals by Jennifer Barnes. My teen wanted me to read a YA series with her so we could discuss them and have a “book club.” YA generally isn’t my thing but it was a good book and I loved that she wanted to read it with me.

Who Gets in and Why

Book 6 of 2025. I can’t believe how quickly I moved on from “how to get your baby to sleep through the night” books to this one, but here we are! There was a lot of great information in here about what colleges are looking for and what isn’t as important.

Book 5 of 2025. The Measure. 3.5 out of 5. Interesting to see how all of the characters fit together and I did shed a few tears.

Tom Lake by Ann Patchett. I absolutely loved it. I don’t know if it would have been a favorite if I just read the actual book, but Meryl Streep reads it and she brings it to life in a way only she can.

This is a great book! Just as described. A cozy read on a winter day.

Book 4 of 2025. Don’t Let Go by @harlancoben.bsky.social. I’ve never been let down by a Harlem Coben book. He is always entertaining and keeps me reading way too late into the night.

Book 3 of 2025. Throne of Glass. DNF. I think I have to accept that I don’t enjoy fantasy novels. I really love sci-fi and dystopian novels, but for some reason, I just can’t do fantasy. Maybe I’m just reading the wrong ones.

Swiftie mom of three and doing my best to be more crafty - spending more time on crafts was one of my new years’ resolutions, so I’m on here looking for inspiration!

The Husbands. 5/5 stars.

Cover of the book Sandwich.

Books I’ve read in 2025—Sandwich. 4/5 stars.
