Friendly reminder that striking workers are asking you not to patronize ANY Starbucks store.

If you're traveling this week, your airport definitely has other options. Zero reason to even think about crossing a picket line!

This is caused by adults not maintaining their pertussis (whooping cough) vaccines.

You should be getting a Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis) vaccine every 10 years.

We have a baby coming in the family (my first grand nephew!), so my husband and I both got vaccinated this week.

I had a lovely day shopping at artists’ open studios and visiting friends. Traffic was down this year - please be sure to support your local artists’ this holiday season. In person if you can! ALT text contains more artist info and links.

Ok palate cleanse time. In case you missed it, here's my most popular post ever
4 yrs ago today, a family member managed a truly spectacular own goal, splintered his domestic bliss, & in the process, united the world for a day.

On popular request, I shall now recreate the livetweet thread from that day

So gather around children, for this is the tale of The Rice Truck Saga

Friday #kidlit check-in time. I cranked through my drawing book project, did some daily drawing, and spent a little time writing. That being said, I've got a case of the grumps. Good thing it's Friday! 🫠 How did all of you fare?
