the joy in bearing witness It’s Labor Day today and, for the first time in 35 years, I am not at work with laboring pregnant people as they welcome into this world brand new humans.

For the 1st time in 35 years I am not spending my Labor Day with laboring pregnant people as they give birth to brand new tiny humans. But I did get to bear witness to this moment of goodness and hope.

stories to tell the grandchildren Not going to lie but last week felt heavy and hard living in this fascist regime; and then I received a text.

Grand baby’s first peaceful protest. My Mima heart is full.

oh why are girls in songs always seventeen? As I begin to write this, the grandchild who named me Mima is quite literally on the edge of seventeen.

Turns out there are actually more than 3 or 4 songs about being 17. Also the one who named me is turning 17.

Shame on the hateful adults at the CIF track event. You’re the problem, not the student athletes.

The more I read about AB Hernandez and the strength and grace this kid has under the most hateful pressure, the more I am impressed with this young athlete.
Also massive respect for Hernandez’s competitors who also have shown the same and support for Hernandez.

Of course this regime has a “Pardon Czar”!

YES MORE OF THIS

I've seen that face before This week marks the anniversary for us which reminds us that the month of May is not just the celebration of so much goodness in our family’s life.

All week I could not stop thinking about Dr. Biden in this picture and then I remembered why.

not something old It seems that every time the month of May rolls in I end up writing about what a busy season it is for us filled with all kinds of events colliding together — because it really is for us.

The month of May is always busy and a little chaotic, but in the very best way and wouldn’t have it any other way.

REP. LAUREN BOEBERT: Sorry.

WITNESS: It's Roger Stone who implicated LBJ in the assassination of the president; it's not my friend Oliver Stone.

Facts! 🔥 🧵

Trump won’t rule out seeking a third term in the White House, tells NBC News ‘there are methods’ for doing so President Donald Trump said in a Sunday-morning phone call that he was “not joking” about a third term, adding that “it is far too early to think about it.”

Many people said those who were worried about this and or spoke about as far back as 2017 were “Chicken Littles.” It is absolutely going to be tried. Successful is still an open ended question. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

Feels like we've seen this movie a few too many times.

Sigh!

musings of a thrower Our neighbor across the street passed away earlier this month.

I’m a Boomer by birth year but I’m absolutely not a hoarder. I’m a lot more like this wise millennial who gets rid of stuff A LOT. If I'm not using it anymore, wearing it, not excited by it, I let it go. It's b/c I have seen clutter. I don't want it.

Did I send a total fangirl thank you email to the CEO of the company my disabled adult child works for for their continued DEI policy and the CEO answered back?
Of course!

Talking about us living in Oregon Trail video game times, one of my grown and flown kids thanked me tonight for insuring that they and their siblings were vaccinated against preventable childhood diseases that literally killed some of their ancestors as children.
