Photo of Omaha Beach in Normandie. It is very grey and blue, with sea gulls in the water and a cliff edge in the distance.

A Pegg appreciation post. I love this boy so much.
He’s just going to stay in bed and let us humans keep messing it all up.

I’m 52. This is me with my youngest son. I’m feeling pretty good about my looks right now. Being kind doesn’t age you as much, I guess.

Go see this film!🎥 🎞️
It is so perfect. Sean Penn deserves another Oscar. And it’s just an incredible cast across the board. The cinematography and the music help create the tension and the chaos of the film and the world we are living in.

Broke down and bought my 25/26 kit. I love the black away kit. And Johnson is a cutie patootie and I think he’s going to be a Tottenham legend.

Happy Birthday Lola!! We’re not sure of the day so I just celebrate her all month long. 15 years young. From a Walmart parking lot in Texarkana to an apartment in Paris, you’ve come a long way little girl. So proud to be your human.

We all need to remember this. Netanyahu, drumpf, etc….can inflict, but the people will endure. And they will prevail.

The world is awful. It’s so hard to get up some days. I’m going to take the joy when it comes. The team I love and support won a trophy today. A well deserved win. And I watched in a pub with supporters and it was amazing. That whistle blow was amazing.

Watching Jeopardy and there is a thunderstorm watch for certain counties in eastern NC. The list is alphabetical. Didn’t know we had a Person county. Just knew about the orange person and a Vance in the white house. 😂
