Where in the world is your friend Aaron going? Hint: It may be an awkward time to visit another NATO country, but I'm sure everyone will be lovely on my side trip to visit the western most tip of continental Europe.

Soldiers in the snow taking part in military exercises amid fears of an invasion. #Ukraine or #Greenland? You decide.

Lovely dinner with dear friend Alex tonight in her festively decorated abode. Delicious food, a glass or two (or three) of port and her recommendations for fun places to visit in Lisbon. #NewYear2026 #EdgewaterBeach #Spaghetti #Tiramisu

The USPS changed its postmark rule Dec 24. Postmarks now reflect the date mail is processed at a facility, not when you drop it off, potentially causing delays for tax returns, BALLOTS, payments. Mail time-sensitive items days early or get a manual, hand-stamped postmark at the post office counter.

"Susie Wiles, the White House chief of staff, told Vanity Fair that her boss is a 'statistical savant.' More likely, his affinity for 92 percent and extravagantly large round numbers is what in a game of poker might be called a tell."

I've never understood the point of these signs. If you see ice falling, it's all about fate. You're going to experience a good scare, bodily injury or death. #Chicago

In these times of surging health care costs, if you find yourself wondering if Republicans have a plan, wonder no more...

This gingerbread holiday candle had a little secret. The light of its flame lit up its windows and street lamp illustrations. #Thanksgiving2025
