Fresh air & exercise with @redeyedvireo.bsky.social . Moving to California is the best decision I ever made 💙

Hoping my parents’ hard-earned Social Security, & hence their peaceful Pennsylvania lives, remain intact🤞. But if the worst happens… perhaps they wouldn’t mind the California Sweater Weather when they are forced to move in with me 😹💙

All I want for XMas is universal healthcare for my fellow Americans 🎄

Passport renewal photo😸! I don’t have any travel plans, but keeping a valid US passport seems like a good idea… especially when your boyfriend is brown! “Papers, please!” 😹

When “cranky” from fasting 😖turns into “Yippie!” because you didn’t even feel the phlebotomy needle🥳. If you or a friend is due for annual bloodwork please let’s take care of each other & nag & get it done while health insurance is still A Thing😸.

While out riding with @redeyedvireo.bsky.social today, I said “It’s kind of cool to see Trudeau stand up to our president-elect. Maybe he can talk sense into him.” Then I posted this totally unrelated clip so.

It’s important more than ever to take care of our bodies & minds. A 50-mile Turkey Day bike ride in the CA ☀️ with @redeyedvireo.bsky.social helped break post-election doldrums & build physical & emotional health 💙

Cycling is expensive. I am grateful for the education I received with much help & sacrifice from my parents - a rare opportunity/outcome within a coal mining family. I often think of them while out frolicking on my bike in the CA ☀️ during my time off work💙 with @redeyedvireo.bsky.social

Bonhoeffer called it as he saw it & stood up vs. those knot-sees! Date night & restoration w/ @redeyedvireo.bsky.social 🥰.

What I love most about Shingrix, the 2-dose shingles vaccine, is that after the 2nd dose most adults are conferred with higher than 90% lifelong effectiveness🤯🥳.
