Beautiful Maine evening

Oh and how was the Anthony Bourdain book, I was just looking at that this past weekend at the bookstore.

I’ve seen these done in granny squares. I like the design you’re using as well.

Looking forward to seeing this.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

Have a great time there. Blessings!

First full day in Greenville Maine, here for a long weekend. Brought along a #knitting project to learn to join as I go miter squares.

A little weekend away.

Republicans inherited one of the strongest stock markets in history and in 1 month they've fucked it all up.

Too bad Uvalde Elementary didn’t sell Teslas.
