What I like (in no particular order): good food, funny stuff, all things cozy, my husband, my family, my dog, movies, music, books, sports, gardening, and nature. Ex-Texan living in the mountains of NE New Mexico. Gracefully aging Meemaw. 💙🌶️🏔️
I feel you, elk, but I’m screaming on the inside. Happy Halloween 🎃

Hi Bluesky friends, I’m asking for big big prayers, and good thoughts, to go out to this guy. My husband Dennis has stage 4 squamous cell cancer, and is having surgery tomorrow. We are traveling to ABQ today, and then we kick cancers ass. I’ve known him since I was 18, and he’s the best. 🙏🏻❤️

Hi Bluesky, I’m going to vent. I’m angry. I’m frustrated. I’m exhausted. My husband has stage 4 squamous cell cancer in his jaw, and he’s going to have his jaw removed, then 6 weeks of radiation, then intense reconstructive surgery. I’m scared, and I just want it all to go away. Please pray for

Do you have all your ducks in a row?
I’m so lucky to live in a place filled with natural beauty. It helps in times of confusion, sadness, anxiety, etc. It helps keep perspective that we live in a big, beautiful world that needs our kindness. Love will always be greater than hate.

Absolutely shitty personal news this am. Asking for prayers to be lifted for my dearest husband. He’s been my life since I was 18 years old. Comforted knowing we aren’t alone. He can beat this just with his intellect and dark sense of humor. Also, it’s hard having to be positive all the time. Hope 🙏🏻

I got a new haircut a few days ago (bangs! So gray!), and I saw myself in a mirror wearing reading glasses. I couldn’t *not* see myself, and think this really wasn’t the look I was going for… (party on, Garth) 😬🫤🎸

We lived in Boerne, TX for 7 years.
I worked in Comfort, TX for a local winery. I’ve seen this river flood before, but nothing like this. DOGE cuts will continue to be deadly,
I’m afraid.
Flash floods along Texas’ Guadalupe River have killed at least 24 people and left around 25 people missing.

Our sweet rescue dog Pearl being a very patient patient. The kiddo is one of my grandsons, and one of the reasons I resist tyranny, and fight for basic human rights. I want this little boy to grow up to be decent, kind, and loving.
