While your Texas university is out here prohibiting people from talking about race...mine is naming buildings after an anti-lynching suffragette and Ms. Ella, our campus "mom" in the dining hall. Not some big $$$ donors.

A photo of Jessie Daniel Ames. Ames is a 1902 graduate of Southwestern University and was a women’s suffrage and anti-lynching activist. A photo of Ella Sedwick. “Ms. Ella,” as she is affectionately known has greeted and supported generations of Southwestern students for more than 25 years through her work with Aramark and Sodexo in the Mabee Commons Dining Hall.

Okay…I’m not crazy. We also called it “twos”. lol
The "twos" superstition in baseball refers to the rare situation when there are two balls, two strikes, and two outs (2-2-2). Players on the bench often perform various rituals during a 2-2-2 count, such as rubbing the brim of their hats and then taking them off to shake them when the pitcher delivers the pitch. These rituals are believed to influence the outcome of the at-bat, with the specific actions sometimes varying based on whether a player wants the batter to get a hit or the pitcher to get an out. &

I love sharing this book with my kids. It is super cute and even the older kids enjoy it. Winifred tries every night to scare the monsters that are scaring her away. The way she solves the problem is super cute!
The cover of the book Monster Trouble. Illustration of a girl in a bed that is surrounded by different fairly friendly looking monsters.

I know it isn’t much, but I’m adding some of those tuna salad lunch things to my grocery order to just keep in my car. In case I see anyone who may be in need of some food. Made a donation to a food pantry also. We can’t all do everything, but we can all do something.

Got this cute tumbler for my Halloween costume. Just have to customize it a little bit. #lorazepam

A tumbler made to look like a prescription pill bottle is laying on a white counter top. It says “chill pill” on the label. Next to it is a pair of tortoises shell sunglasses with rose tinted lenses.

A 12 ft Skelly wearing a black grim reaper robe and holding a scythe. He is standing in front of a tan colored brick house. There are magnolia leaves from the nearby tree near the right side of his head.
