My son gave me fantastic seats for last night’s Royals game. It was a beautiful night at the ball game. Thanks again @bandondecker.bsky.social !

But, her emails

When I was a kid, all the really bad guys in movies had German accents. Later, they had Russian accents. In fifteen years the bad guys will have American accents.

I have performed the ritual putting-away of the happy light. Eggs from my own hens have been made into quiche. I have dusted off my sun hat. Spring has arrived.

This is the text I added:

We must not obey in advance. An opposition party is irrelevant in the face of tyranny unless it stands in opposition with all its might. Stand up.

My deepest sympathy. Dogs are the better angels of our spirits. 💔

Ever wonder what snow in the swamp would look like? This is 5 miles into the Louisiana swamps in the Atchafalaya basin... it's unreal... having lived down there for the first 28 years of my life, we never saw anything like this.

Smashed records.

This is a headline from CNN today:

“Expect record-high egg prices for most of the year”

That’s a great picture.

If you live in a red state or a red zip code, it’s fine to pretend to be a Republican when you call your senators about Hegseth. Today I expressed my shock that the party of the military would support someone unqualified and disrespectful of half of the service members.

I never see them where I live. We get summer tanagers, which are beautiful, too.

Okay. I’ll start there. Thank you!

No. Should I be?

Okay, I follow a lot of accounts that talk about resistance, but I’m not seeing a lot of content about what I can actually do. I phone my senators, but I live in Missouri, so I might as well call Captain Kangaroo. I give to the ACLU and Planned Parenthood. Who should I follow for action suggestions?

These are my excellent excuses for not getting anything done.

Farewell to Penelope, my long-lived cat. She was born on April 19, 2003 in my sister’s barn. For reference, the Iraq war began later that year, “Friends” was still making new episodes, and Michael Jordan retired from basketball. Penelope died yesterday at age 21 years and 8 months.

What a surprise…
