Call your Democratic Senators tomorrow and tell them to put down their work on nominations until OMB withdraws its power grab on appropriations. No more nomines go through. None.

“My” NYT subscription is for work and I admit, having #Wordle access does make me smile, especially on a slow Sunday morning where THIS happens…

Now, off to spend my day doing make-up work for the J-O-B thanks to being ill last week! Make today AWESOME, friends!

On the 🧵 place, I liked wishing friends good morning, maybe sharing my #Wordle results, or chatting about #music, #film & #books, and plans for the day/weekend. I’m hoping we can build a similar wholesome community here, because everyone wants to feel heard & seen. What say you, 🦋 friends?

OK, dumb newbie question: is there a way to bookmark or save posts here? I keep seeing things I want to save to read later, but there doesn’t seem to be a function for it?

I’m at work, 550 words into one of two content pieces I expect to publish today. I am ABSOLUTELY grateful for a fantastic job that pays me well, but this “in-between-day” after the weekend and before two more holiday days off, just feels WEIRD... 1/3

So, my terrible asthma flare-up of last week turned out to be walking pneumonia, aka mycoplasmic pneumonia. Merry Christmas, brought to you by Azithromycin, Advair, Albuterol, Singulair & Prednisone. 🎄😷 🎁

I’m being treated for an asthma flare, so steroids got me like, “I’m hungry! (just ate). What am I doing? (just facilitated a professional development program for work). I wanna go Christmas shopping (at the office till at least 5)…”

My apologies in advance if you have to interact with me IRL!

Funny how when you beat the bot’s expectations it’s “luck” instead of skill.

Well, friends, this afternoon I am going to test drive a potential new-to-me car. It’s a virtual 180 from my trusty Prius, Ms. Moneypenny, but I want to be able to transport mom & her accoutrements with ease, and I want my phone & car to be able to talk to each other again! (1/2)

What is your personal harvest this year? May it be a bounty of joy & love: of grand accomplishments, challenges overcome, and moments of wonder large & small. Your life, those you love, and the experiences that fill your heart are ALWAYS worth celebrating. ❤️
