I am getting a lot of non bot followers right now. I am following back very few. I like to stay informed, but do not obsess over politics. Also, I do not follow back people who only repost other people's original material. I am not interested in collecting followers. I am interested in: 1/
Sorry I have been so absent. As far as precipitation. We went from famine to feast! My water tank is full. I have about 50 gallons in other containers. I have been reveling in the desert returning to life. My garden has finally taken off, but our overnight lows are below 40. Not much is producing.

Good customer service is so hard to find. Except at dispensaries. You can always expect top notch service.

Popping in to say howdy to all y'all. It's been a hot, dry NONsoon season. Many fires have been starting from lightning. We had an arsonist just to add to the fun of it all. There was a small fire in the hood, but our local volunteer FD put it out quickly.
I am so ready for winter.

Sooo I was at a coffee shop and the girl in line behind me decided to ask if I’d heard about Jesus.
In the United States.
In 2025.
“I have heard the sales pitch, yes,” I said. “I’m happy with my current religious services provider and not looking to make a switch.”

It's raining again! 🌧🥰 Even though it rained most of yesterday and some overnight, the dirt (clay) roads weren't that slippery when I went to take my trash. That's how dry it has been. I think we have gotten about 1/2" over the last week.

It's been raining for a couple of hours. My water tank has finally passed the 100gal mark for the first time in well over a year. Also, it's kind of chilly. I am going to make some soup to warm my cabin up. I am so happy.

Today was my first day back to being 100% self-employed. It has been the least Monday-like Monday in over 2 years. No teeth grinding. No misogyny. No bigotry. No gaslighting. No sitting around waiting to see if the boss is going to show up for a meeting. I actually took a dance break!

Well, we just had a little fire out here. It still isn't showing on Watch Duty. Navajo hot shots handled it. These firefighters are just badass. They fly all over to help with wildfires. I am in awe and have a bit of a crush on them.

Another moral dilemma:
A friend told me that they dropped out of college. That's no big deal. However, in a recent conversation, she stated that she has a degree. I can't help but wonder how many other lies she has told.

A chipmunk just came to my door complaining about the water bowl. I told it that I just washed it and filled it with water that is free of PFAS, microplastics, viruses, and bacteria. Then I look at the water bowl. Many wasps. Nothing I can do about that. I told the chipmunk to wait their turn. 🤣

Something has been irking me regarding the treatment of immigrants. They are people first. The focus of so many is that they are farm workers, farmers are hurting, or food prices will go up. This dehumanizes them. They are parents. They are spouses. They are children. If you are worried about...

After watching rain showers in every direction and receiving none for too many days to count, I am finally getting some rain! Big, fat, cold drops of rain! We actually had a heat index of 101° F today.

I am not that close to any of the fires in NM. On a sunny day, our skies are this magnificent blue free from that city haze. Right now, it looks more like Dallas or Albuquerque. There's this icky haze along the horizon. Winds are currently out of the WNW.

I have been dealing with a personal relationship issue. I know someone who has passed that was smuggled out of Nazi Germany. Her entire family was murdered in a concentration camp. I have some of her writings about those times.
I have known her son for about 30 years.

After taking a couple of days off, I am quite entertained by the calls to deport Melania, Miller, and Musk. I think I will stop scrolling now.
I hope all y'all are doing OK. 💜 (good is an unfair expectation)

Doomer Folk,
Have any of you received a "save the date" card for the start of the next US Civil War? I am trying to make some plans.
Thanks, V

The drought is making gardening a bit of a challenge. Hungry and thirsty critters keep eating stuff no matter what I do. My cucumbers were about to start climbing, but something got most of them. My Peas were producing, gone overnight. There is one vine left that is recovering. 🌱🧵
