So beautiful! I was there last year.

It’s wonderful to see you! Now back to bed, young lady!

Hint: if you are climbing the walls, that is a good sign.

Oh, dear! I fear mine has completely succumbed!

I wish I lived close enough to help. I love assembly! Yes, I’m weird.

My son’s is, but that is only because he was hired in March (a hiring that was delayed by 6 weeks thanks to DOGE). I assure you that his Roth IRA did not double.

Only the felon despoiling the people’s house and his cronies are doubling their escape funds.

Finishing my binge of Star Trek TOS.

When I was traveling for work I had coworkers who thought sitting near me might be a good idea. Having st*abbed myself accidentally, can confirm that they can inflict pain.

One of the worst clubs ever (member since 2022)! I also 100% do not recommend the Dead Dads Club (member since 1981).

It was an exhausting game for the fans.

I’ve never had a problem bringing metal needles on flights. Mine are the small ones (8” or so).

As if I needed ANOTHER reason to avoid Target!

Now to pull out my Wonder Woman shawl!

Ugh! Rest well.

I remember having to nap in the middle of sipping soup because I was so exhausted when I had tonsillitis. I also found it distinctly unfair that I could have it even after my tonsils had been removed.

It’s the Thursdayest.

Yes, physical books. Well, mostly Kindle, but still reading with my eyes and only occasionally looking at the knitting. Works best on straight knit only, like plain socks.

Fun fact, I did this while flying on a plane sitting next to then Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison. She was impressed.

My TBR and yarn stash are both in the Dragon hording size range. Luckily, I can knit and read at the same time.

It really is a good day!

And my paternal Gramma: eating lunch while Lawrence Welk was on in the background. Welk mentioned the great sax player from the last act. Gramma (with her back to the TV) said, “There’s too much sex and violence in TV!”

No, she was not making a joke, she just wasn’t paying attention.
