I genuinely wonder sometimes what she thinks when she looks at herself in the mirror. She must have some shame, surely.

Sorry we're not going to see you in Philly. We did try. But like we said at the Chesham match in December, you underestimated how popular you are in PA.

I'm so tired, guys. Just so tired. I don't like this timeline.

I just need to say to the universe, thank you, because I am the luckiest woman in the world. I have a wonderful son, an amazing husband, and I'm living a life where one of my biggest dreams is coming true. Mostly thanks to aforementioned amazing husband

I don't want to say 'he reminds me of my dad' because my dad was the kindest man who ever breathed, but towards the end, he had that same type of facial expression.

I have pseudo grandchildren, belonging to much younger friends, but they call me Nana, and my 9 year old granddaughter texts me, and the 3 year old boy hugs me, and it fills my heart so much.

Aw thank you. Didn't really think anyone would see this!

Yeah, that what I thought, too. Don't make it easy for them to muddy the waters

I was thinking about the whole 'sending American soldiers into American cities' thing, and thought all the protesters should jus sit or lie down, and not say a word. They can accuse protetester of being terrorists if they aren't actually doing anything.

Right now the military aren't even getting paid. I rather hope this would be motivation enough for them to say no if he does try.

I need to use this platform more and wean myself off FB, so here's the banner I used for my husband's retirement party.

I say this without hyperbole. Pratchett is our Shakespeare. He got humanity just like Shakespeare did.

Our 'state of the company/celebration day' meeting makes me cringe with my whole body. Can we like not have the bad acting in a vain attempt to make any of this interesting and just get on with it?

I am pretty confident in saying you could probably find a Pratchett quote for almost everything. He was a genius.

Is anyone else totally depressed about the state of the country? Is there NY hope at all?

My husband works for the federal government. He is very dedicated and has been for 37 years.

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

Mama bear wrestling with her cub. She's got him by the rear paw, nibbling on his toes I guess. They're in spring grass with a tree on the left.

A friend of mine living overseas said Trump WAS boo'd, so that's interesting.

Good. The sooner Trump and Elon break up the sooner (hopefully) Elon will stop trying to rob America blind.

The people who voted 3rd party, or didn't vote should be ashamed of themselves.
