I love many types of needlework, spending time with my family, and trying to make logical sense of the world.
I’m tired of dishes even with a dishwasher. I cook from scratch a lot and had 4 kids and my husband. For 30 years, I did 11 loads/week for 42 weeks and 14 loads/week for 10 weeks. Another 10 years of 8/wk for 52 weeks. Conservatively loaded/unloaded the damn dishwasher 22,220 times. I’m tired.

I routinely say please and thank you to Siri and Alexa. Hopefully they remember that in the robot revolution.

Friday's debut of new pandas at the National Zoo in D.C. is the latest chapter in a long tale of "panda diplomacy" between China and the rest of the world.
