Looking for a dance partner… hoping for a kind friend. Our romance has been the best surprise— a connection characterized by love, continually increasing delight, mutual trust, laughter, healing. We comfort one another through difficulties; we support each other as we grow towards our dreams.

I love this man so much. And being loved by him has been the most wonderfully romantic, exciting, and peaceful experience of my life. ❤️

This morning I met my next-door neighbor Cathy, who is a cat lover and generous gardener. She gave me this lovely, fragrant iris 💜

surprise twist: Moving Day is extended to tomorrow! 🤪 Moving *out* took so long that there was not enough time to move *in*… so the Two Scots semi will be unloaded here into my new house tomorrow. 🙃

Life’s been moving too fast to make posts lately… now it’s less than a week ‘til I move out of the house where I’ve lived since 2001. Raising four kids fills a place with a great many happy memories as well as a ridiculously large number of possessions. I’m ready for the calm after the storm.

Last week Ken took me to our first concert together. I’ve never been a fan of Christian music, but TobyMac’s songs are so good, and his message feel authentic an uplifting. The best part of the night was seeing my love enjoy himself immensely ❤️

The Dispossessed by Ursula K. LeGuin is one of my all-time favorite books. As with all novels I love, I re-read it periodically… This time was most special because I shared the experience with my love who was reading it for the first time. 📚 🐉
Ken, you are my partner now and for life. ❤️ #booksky

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

exciting news, y’all— my house has SOLD! I feel tremendously relieved and grateful. I received competing offers last night with escalation clauses, so I ended up getting $$ over asking the day after officially listing. 🎉 All the hard work of preparation and stress of multiple showings paid off...

I love that Ken is emotionally mature and expresses his feelings. He knows I love flowers; I’ve received more flowers from him than I had in all the rest of my life before him…

ZELENSKYY: I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours. Maybe something better.
