Very relieved and ecstatic over the Dem wins. I can't wait for Laird to wake up so I can tell him how the Dems totally swept the local elections!

Last year I bought candy but we had zero trick-or-treaters, which meant that Laird and I ate all the candy.
This year I bought no candy. If kids come, it looks like they're getting bananas and LÄRABARs.

SNAP is running dry without govt. funding. If you can afford it, donate to your local food bank. 42 million people in 22 million households are relying on this program to eat. 1 in every 7 children.

Be very clear when you talk about this with people: the core of this conflict is that Democrats want Americans to be able to afford healthcare… and Republicans don’t.

So far, we've failed at Halloween movie viewing.
Sleep had dog death (deal breaker for me) and Things Will Be Different didn't have subtitles (deal breaker for Laird).

BREAKING: In an insane moment, Speaker Johnson complains that he's not in charge. They keep saying, 'Republicans are in charge of government.' We aren't!"
They control the House, Senate, and White House, and they could end the shutdown today.

We had a host of fall insects come in this last week or two, moths, stink bugs, ladybugs, etc. But then this bug came in and now they're the only bug in the house.

Play time is learning time! These year-old marmots are learning social skills they will need as adults to be part of a successful colony. Wrestling can be a pair bonding or a territorial activity. Sometime the difference is knowing how hard to bite.
