Missing our son Bryan, today and everyday, but knowing that he is always just a thought away. 💖 🦋
A picture of our son, Bryan, on the right, and the Thanksgiving poem The Empty Chair on the left. "Thanksgiving is here but you are there... At our table sits an empty chair. Though we're grateful and still celebrate... We can't help that our hearts still ache. Wishing that you were not so far... So we could come to where you are."

The hummingbirds were plentiful today, even at our other son’s house, where he usually doesn’t see them. This one was at our house this morning. I know it’s our son, Bryan, saying Happy Thanksgiving from Heaven 💖🦋✨

When the Wampanoag first fed the Pilgrims
they didn't realize
they'd just invented Socialism
for undocumented refugee immigrants.

Happy Thanksgiving.

This is madness! 😡
Meme by The Resistance showing a post by NewsWire at the top: "Republicans plan to challenge vehicle-safety mandates, such as automatic emergency braking and alarms that remind drivers a child is in the back seat - WSJ." Below that is a post by Gavin Newsom: "Republican priorities: Ensure it's easier to get into a car accident. Great work." Below that is a post by M.D. Travis: "They did the meme" showing a cartoon with a sign on the left that says "Republican Convention Inside" and on the right, two people at the podium and a cheering crowd. Above are two banners that say: "We want what's worst for everyone" and "We're just plain evil."

Very proud of my senator!
A meme by The Resistance of a post by Captain Mark Kelly: "I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired. If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won't work. I've given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution." Below his post is a picture of him standing next to a fighter jet.

Slo-Mo video of bees on the bee bush, as we call it. 😊 It was a beautiful sunny day, which was nice after several days of rain. ☀️🐝

FAFO 🤷‍♀️
Meme from The Resistance shows a post by Rep. Mike Flood: "This is devastating news for our beef producers, for Lexington, and the whole state of Nebraska. Ranchers have dutifully raised cattle even when times were hard. Now, they are being abandoned." He is responding to a post by KRVN Radio which says "Nebraska leaders blast Tyson's decision to close Lexington beef plant..." Underneath the meme says "Something, something voting has consequences. Something, something Argentinian beef." Under that it shows a picture of Harris with 39%, and tRump with 60% of the vote in Nebraska.
