I'm so jealous of my brother - he joined the #WalkforPeace monks on their journey to the Columbia State House today (and he got to see Aloka!!!).
It sounds like it was an amazing experience full of hope and connection. Just listening to him talk about it got me a little teary. Go if you can!

I hope your 2026 is off to auspicious start!
Last night was another low-key evening of celebrating the start of the new year, but I got a big, slurpy NYE kiss from a total cutie!
Not a fan of collards or peas, but I ate as much money and luck as I could for dinner.
Happy New Year to all of you!

I swear it was just last week that I turned 50, so I'm not sure how it's already my birthday again, but apparently time keeps truckin'!🤪
I'm so lucky that my family is wacky and wonderful and also shares my booty-ful sense of humor!😆

To wrap up the day, it was Advent Calendar-Palooza! We have so many different kinds - candles, puzzles, journaling, dog treats, and of course our traditional liquor bottle advent boxes. That one comes with some sadness, since Dad made the boxes and loved the tradition so much...

Whew! Yesterday was a long day with lots of fun activity (but also a bit of an emotional roller coaster).
Since it was December 1st, it was the birthday of three rainbow bridge dogs - Molly, Freya, and Chloe. All dogs are good dogs, but these three were really, REALLY good.❤️

My sweet pupper has a teeny tiny nubbin' butt, but she was definitely born that way.

Did my good-citizen duty!
At my precinct the "only" thing up for vote is the primary for a state House seat because the rep resigned two months ago, so I was pleasantly surprised at how many people were there to vote in an off-year. Let's go democracy!

Yesterday was Kenzi's Gotcha Day.❤️ I can't believe we've had this sweet, adorable dog for 3 years. She's such a very good girl!
And of course very good girls deserve a few toys on their Gotcha Day even though they already have enough toys to set up their own pet store.😆

So inspired by all the folks at the No Kings protests! I wasn't able to make it, so I've been churning out letters & postcards to voters this weekend. There's only about a week left to write, so if you have a few spare minutes & stamps, grab some addresses from @votefwd.bsky.social. votefwd.org

Seeing the cybertruck posts reminded me that I took this pic when I was running errands a few months ago but never got around to posting it. Seems relevant for today's discussions.

Four years ago I felt on the verge of barfing as we got ready for the world premiere of our movie. But it went great, and I still love the wraparound we created with Madam Josephine.
If you haven't seen it yet, the next two weeks are a perfect time to watch it.👻🎃
