Old. Sole caregiver of husband with Lewy Body Dementia. Lover of corvids. Battered but unbent. My spirit animal is Chicken Little.
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing
there is a field. I'll meet you there.

When the soul lies down on that grass
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, phrases, even each other
doesn't make any sense.

@msnbc.com Just asking... Could we not play "Hardball" any more? It's ugly. Thank you.

Parkinson's Law: The work expands to fill the time available. Pippa's Law: The dog expands to fill the bed available.

Doggie nirvana: being surrounded by unwashed laundry waiting to be sorted.

I was in the waiting room this morning, wearing my "Moms Demand" bright red shirt and listening to a Bubba telling the neighboring people how awful that the "illegals" are and how thrilled he is with current events and when they called me for my appointment he saw my shirt and shut his mouth.

My dog had a huge vomit-fest and I remembered in the middle of it that someone recently suggested a wake-up alarm with that sound the dogs make when they start the process and people with dogs would LEAP out of bed immediately.

On July 10th I fell on our stairs and broke my leg in two places. I am alternating between caregiving and being cared for by my sweet husband when he is able. I will never take being able to walk for granted again. But right now the hummingbirds have nectar, the crickets sing the autumn in at night.

Three soulful looks, one old chair. Milo, Pippa, Gabby.

Milo is asking if I would please turn off the news.

This morning our local newspaper printed a story about dealing peacefully with our urban coyotes. One suggestion for exclusion was to "ensure your chicken coup is well-built." My granddaughter raises chickens. I hope the family knows that a chicken insurrection is brewing.

@nicollewallace.bsky.social Just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your having Angelo Carusone on Dateline. What a mind! And the clarity of his discussions always makes me learn something. Thank you!

@goangelo.bsky.social I so appreciate your contributions to Nicolle Wallace's Deadline Washington. You explain issues with such clarity and depth. I am always happy to see you on the show!

I am noticing that when I put Milo's food bowl down and he tucks in I can feel his whiskers on my thumb and it makes me smile.

It's sibling appreciation day! Jackie and I are on the left of the raft. South Fork, Yuba River.

I have been doomscrolling and I thought I might feel better by looking at Milo with his favorite toy. Maybe it might make you feel better too?

During COVID a health authority in Japan urged attendees of a large outdoor theme park not to scream during rides so to not spread the virus. "Scream in your hearts," he said. I have been screaming in my heart for weeks but Monday's news has made me scream out loud.
