Proud wife, mother, and gram striving to live my best life every day. Pet mom to Gemma (English Setter), Ryzen (German Wirehair), & one crabby cat (Samson). Love spending time outside gardening, exploring new places, and flyfishing. No DMs #MBC
I love my life and hope to be here to witness our eight grandchildren reach many more milestones. I don't know that I would choose to exercise this option, but as a terminally ill person, I would like to be able to make that choice for myself. #MBC

Our German Wirehair, Ryzen, left one of her precious toys on the bench where I usually sit at the table. She looks ferocious, but is a total sweetheart! Love how she spoils me. 💕

For someone who feels ancient a lot of the time, my Spotify listening age mades me smile. Probably a reflection of my favorite people. We have eight grandkids ranging in age from 23 years old to a three year old. Six of them are 15 or older. #bestlife

Feeling blessed. 4 months in on my new treatment plan of #fulvestrant and #capivasertib. Recent scans show no progression. Generic Zofran & Lotomil plus Immodium have minimized nausea & diarrhea so I can be more present for my family. 90 months since #mbc diagnosis I'm still here. #cancer #bestlife

The GOP has repeatedly demonstrated an unwillingness to negotiate in good faith.
At this point, it’s utterly bonkers that any Democrat would trust any Republican to negotiate in good faith.

Blessed to have spent yesterday with our oldest granddaughter. I'm in awe of the kind and caring young woman she's grown into. Can't wait to watch her next chapter unfold as she moves into her first apartment and continues working as a CNA while she furthers her nursing education. #bestlife

Makes sense to me.
Pete Ricketts talks about "market based solutions" while Nebraska ranchers get squeezed by monopolists.
Enough talk. Enough empty buzzwords.
Here are FOUR concrete policies that will actually help our ranchers.

The first time I heard the term "conflict entrepreneur" used was this week by Utah's governor. This essay on the subject is well worth a listen.

You can abhor Charlie Kirk & his beliefs and unequivocally condemn murder. You can do both. It shouldn’t be hard. It’s what grown up, civilized, tolerant people do.

As my #MBC has progressed, I have struggled to focus my eyes & brain to read. Encouraged by my niece, I started listening to audio books last fall.
This year, I have listened to 31 books. Who knew a library card could bring so much joy! Just finished Home Front by Kirstin Hannah. #books

Pretty much sums up my feelings on the subject. If your primary source of news talks incessantly about the "liberal left" or the "radical right," you might consider tuning into a different news source.

My crabby cat, Samson, is having some early morning Mom time. Weighing in at 23 pounds, when he wants loved, he just plops on top of whatever dog is in "his spot," encouraging them to vacate. A random barn kitten who joined our menagerie 10 years ago this fall. #catsofbluesky #pets #bestlife

I really loving the new siding on our house! What a difference! Thank you, @randy63.bluesky.social, for hanging new outside lights and new blinds and installing the new bathroom faucet! Can't wait for the rest of the improvements to be finished.

In the oncology waiting room, I listened to 2 young women reconnect over their breast cancer experiences. Both sounded encouraged that their cancers were successfully treated & were close to their 5 year mark. Encouraged to see women lifting women. Silently prayed for their cancer free future. #MBC

I voted for him during the last election cycle. Glad to see he is making another run.
People often say “everyone should wait tables at some point in their life.”
I say “anyone running for Senate should know what living paycheck-to-paycheck actually feels like.”
