I like salamanders, fish and art. I love my kids and grandkids. And I loathe fascists. Public schools, Pell Grants and work-study enabled me to live a comfortable life. I want the same for everyone. Antiques Roadshow groupie.
And here I was blaming my crappy internet service and ancient tv monitor.
Of course it was Bezos.

Beagle still thinks it is daylight savings time. So it was a 4:07 wake up call. 6 degrees. I’m out in the yard in my flannel nightgown, down jacket, and snow boots, hoping my neighbors’ doorbell cameras don’t reach this far.

Watched Elf tonight. Was wondering why all the ads were for antidepressants and other mental health medications. Then realized that I was home watching Elf on a Friday night…

Me too. But I went Independent when Ed King ( remember him?) became a Republican. And now I’m a democrat. Go figure.

Watched the game last night with some boomer holdover Giants fans, although they are WMass natives. Recalled how bad the Pats were in the 60’s, 70’s & 80’s and how Pats games were always blacked out because they didn’t sell enough tickets to be allowed to broadcast. Lots of Giants fans still here.

I went to a craft fair and bought some lovely microwave soup cozies from the quilter that made them. Should help keep me from burning my hands on hot bowls of oatmeal, chili, and soup coming out of the microwave. That’s it for me until boycott is over.

My adult son, my 59 year old sister, and my niece’s husband have all lost their jobs since September. Three different fields( cannabis, retail, and construction), three different states. Anecdotal stories that affirm statistics.

Those were the same clothes I sent with my kids to summer camp. 25 years ago. So that explains why those clothes never made it home! Check for a name tag, please.

Those Leavitts apparently don’t believe in the “sanctity of marriage” when they are procreating. Karoline also married after she had a child. Catholic?
The hypocrisy is stunning.
Feel badly for the baby mama and the nephew. What a convenient way to guarantee custody.
