Pineapple belongs on pizza. Scrapple or Spam - don't get me started.
My walk with God isn’t perfect, but I still show up every day and say, "Here I am."
Ever have a plant you just can't make happy? Ugh!

I don't have it all figured out. Still, I show up every day. "God, I'm here."

I am so far from perfect. But every day I spend time with God.

To all of us out here doing our best. Look for happiness inside and choose to BE the happiness you want. If can't get there at first - pretend. I know it sounds weird, but what you put out comes back. 🩷🌸✨

Haven't heard anything about Flashes for Android in awhile.
Seriously grumbling that I may have to use Instagram again 🤬

a crash of rhinoceros
an exhalation of larks
an unkindness of ravens
a tower of giraffes
a bloat of hippopotami
a cackle of hyenas
a leap of leopards
a murder of crows
a prickle of porcupines
a convocation of eagles

Went to buy a book as a gift for a high school grad.
Came out with that book and 3 more for myself. 😬

I did not begin my journey back to faith because of the current administration.

I started a bit before they took over.

Super grateful I had a jump-start 🙌

Just finished The Alchemist.
I enjoyed it quite a bit.

Just saw a commercial promoting Trump and his plan.
It was on the SyFy channel.
Seems apropos.

After the last book, I decided I needed to read something positive/ uplifting.
I hope this is it.

And a new journey begins. ##booksky 📚

What to read next?

I've narrowed it down to 2 choices from my stack of calling books.

Tomorrow I commit! #booksky📚

I have finished The Stranger by Albert Camus. Not a longer book.
I can't say I enjoyed it or didn't enjoy it. And maybe that's the main character's residue left on me.
It's very monotone, almost lifeless and get that is one of the main points.
Albeit punctuation, it reads like 2 run on sentences.

Outstanding that Booker, Smith, and Schatz are taking a stand and thinking outside the box.

More please!
This is leadership.
This is solidarity.
This is good trouble.

Democratic Senators Booker, Smith, and Schatz crash the House markup in protest of Medicaid cuts…
