feeling like a pinball as #47 & his evil henchman alienate allies, ignore the Constitution, erase history, decimate the economy, etc.

Today and every day, I am thankful for all the good in my life. Wherever this Thanksgiving holiday finds you, may there be good food, good company, and moments that gladden your heart.

spent the weekend as Santa's Command Aide for the I❤️MyPWCFireFighter photo shoot ...

it's been a L-O-N-G day, but seeing this photo reminded me that even at the bottom of the mountain, sunrise can be spectacular

I'm a veteran. I'm the daughter & granddaughter of a veteran. I'm the wife of a veteran. I'm the friend, colleague & teacher of veterans. Today & every day, let us truly honor the service, sacrifice, & commitment of all veterans who proudly served & are serving still. #Veteran
