When is legacy media going to give Dementia Don the same attention they gave Biden’s neuro decline? When are they going to report on the extrajudicial murders happening in the Caribbean as breathlessly as the do the renaming of the Kennedy Center? This why you don’t allow billionaires own the media.

If you can't afford what a child has requested on their Angel Tree request, or if you're one of those grinches who don't think that poor children deserve nice things, then pick another child whose request you don't find offensive. It's not hard & Xmas is not the time to be mean to a child.

Wegman's Cranberry Orange bread is fantastical...I could live on this stuff year round if they'd let me.

When your diabetic neuropathy is causing severe pain and a loss of sleep so you take your pain medication and slap a lidocaine patch on it as well.

This rotten beast got me out of bed at 3:00 a.m. to potty and then my brain took over and I couldn't go back to sleep. I gave up trying at about 5:00 a.m. and I've been churning out billable work ever since. My body and my brain are giving out...why couldn't they do that at 3 this morning?

Because I'm a pushover, I've agreed to work full-time in January. I had planned on working just a few hours each week (I'm capped at $25k before it begins to affect my SS payment amount), but my boss called last night begging me stay through January. I just cannot resist having my ego stroked.

As a professional dachshund wrangler allow me advise against the urge you may have to annoy your sleeping dachshund at 1:00 a.m. while in a state of near undress. IYKYK. #DogsofBluesky #MiniatureDachshund #ChaoticDoxies

Aaaaand....it's official. I'm retiring as a surviving spouse at the end of the month. I will probably continue working part-time (I'm only 62) but it will give me more time to spend with my Mom (who has Parkinson's), my daughter (who is intellectually challenged) & my new great-granddaughter.

My house looks like millions of Christmas decoration storage boxes were brought up from the basement and promptly exploded...primarily because they fucking did. 🤦‍♀️

Oh well, the Christmas trees look pretty and now I just need to find time to decorate the rest of the house. 🤷‍♀️

Tom Turkey in all his pre-cooked glory. He’s stuffed with onion, lemons, oranges & a metric ton of fresh rosemary. His outside is coated with olive oil, rubbed sage, garlic & onion powders, herbs de Provence, Italian seasoning & 3 sticks of butter. Expecting about 20 people for dinner at 4:00 p.m.!

Thanksgiving prep is officially underway. Cranberry sauce? Done. Choc. chip cookies? Done. Chop/season the veggies & brown the sausage for stuffing? Also done. So much left to be done, though. I love this season & Thanksgiving has always been my favorite holiday.

To cheer myself up I've started Christmas shopping. Damage thusfar? 2 Kate Spade bags, 5 Pandora charms, and a monogrammed Christmas Baby Quilt with matching crib sheet from Pottery Barn Kids.

You know it's going to be a day when you wake up to discover that your daughter has been admitted to the psych ward overnight and your Dad (who never calls) calls to tell you that your daughter was admitted to the psych ward overnight.

Are grocery stores (I'm looking at you Food Lion!) really increasing prices right before a huge food holiday or is it all in my imagination? (And yeah, this is a rhetorical question because I'm not an idiot.)

Discovered last night that oldest girlchild's bio mom has not checked on her even once during this pregnancy. Due date is 11/16. I raised her & love her like my own (she's my deceased son's oldest) so she's not alone in this, but I'm not Mom & no matter how much she shrugs it off, I know it hurts.

My little blue dot in ruby red King George Count, Virginia counted! Abigail Spanberger will be the next Governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

My mother is worried for me & my oldest granddaughter given our constant criticism of DJT’s regime & his systemic destruction of our way of life. I understand her fear, but I will not be quiet in the face of fascism. I got my girls passports earlier this year. I’m content with whatever comes my way.

I solved the 10/24/2025 New York Times Mini Crossword in 0:45!

This one was pretty straightforward, but I’ll take a 45 second solve any day of the week and twice on Sunday. 🥳

I wish I could avoid photos of the destruction at the White House the way I was able to avoid video of the Twin Towers collapsing on 9/11. Social media wasn't quite as "in your face" then, though. Pretty sure I'm the only person alive to have never seen those videos.

I hate DJT.

Again feeling like I am over-react to everything, seeing conspiracies & evil in every action taken by this Regime. It's 2016 all over again with everyone was telling me to calm down, it'll be okay.

It wasn't okay in 2016 & it's not okay now. I fear people aren't seeing the danger clearly.

FYI - Eminem did NOT perform at Charlie Kirk's funeral. Tiktok is awash with claims and even a video purporting to be a "tribute" that Em wrote/performed in memorium. It's all a bunch of AI bullshit.

Do we have a projected timeline for the Rapture? I only ask because I need to know when we can get busy doing the Lor...uhmmm...the people's work.

It occurs to me that Republicans aren’t afraid of the Trump regime or voters. They’re afraid of the rank & file who would rather shoot than talk. But they built this monster so they have no one but themselves to blame.
