Lola, our second stray who came inside last week, had her babies last night. Three grey and one black. They are beyond cute. ❤️

In related news, we’ve gone from 0 to 7 cats in under a year. It happens fast, y’all. 😂

A friend of 25 years passed away this week. He was only 46. Completely unexpected. Still have more questions than answers, but at this point, I'm not sure it matters.

His passing is yet another solid reminder that no days are promised. Also, that grief is a non-linear bitch. Gonna miss that dude.

Today in “Stuff I’d Rather A Robot Do”… I showed ChatGPT photos of recipes I plan to make this week and told it how many servings I want, and it made me a lovely grocery list with all items combined.

I’m sure some of y’all have been on this for a while, but it was a fun first for me.

✨YAY AI✨

Husband’s watching church online and I can’t help but think it’s truly a miracle that Jesus was able to get his message across without all these lights, screens, sweeping cameras, fog machines…

I’m curious… Who all is planning to participate in the economic blackout on Friday 2/28?

I think it’s nice when people cite the sources they’re holding up with one hand while thrusting their first in the air with the other

this is On Tyranny, by Timothy Snyder, and it’s about $12 and fits in a purse or a large pocket

We have a saying down here that the best way to know if an alligator is in a body of water is to place your hand in the shallowest part. If your hand is wet, there may be an alligator in there. 🐊

Some thoughts on Wednesday-night’s tragic air accident near Washington, DC:

The mid-air collision of American Airlines flight 5342 and a US Army VH-60 helicopter is highly personal for me. It literally hits close to home as I live approximately three miles away from National Airport.

Alrighty friends -- I present the next installment of "It's never just a cat"... another addition to our feral pack of love.

Meet Todd. He's favoring his back left leg a bit. I wish I knew how to help him, as I fear calling him in may result in a worse outcome. Guess I'll just get more food. 😂

Three hours before graduating, my son brought home a cat. We are a dog house. We did not want a cat.

Seven months later, said cat owns all of us. I also have a group of feral cats I now feed with attachments to all. And now it seems our pack has grown more.

Lesson: It's never "just a cat," y'all.

“Trump has promised to pardon Jan. 6 rioters when he returns to the White House. Experts warn that could trigger a renaissance for militant extremists, sending them a message of protection and support — and making it all the more urgent to understand them.” WHEW. 👉 www.propublica.org/article/ap3-...

This hangs in one of our vet’s office’s exam rooms. I’m not sure who made it but it’s clear why they framed it.

Thought y’all might appreciate it too.

For those who put up a Christmas tree:

How long do you wait after the big day before you take it down and why?

Genuinely curious. 😁
