Old enough to be wise, young enough to be a wise ass. Cat mom, gmom, cruddy body but grateful mind. 💙 🔯
As our Nation goes about "HANDS OFF" today, I'm here to honor the USA that was created--however IMperfectly-- by people with faith, commitment & morals. That which promised us "domestic tranquility" & more.
Thank you to those who demonstrate & testify to what is right, today & always.

Once upon a time, I did what I had to do. The "walks," the fundraising, the phone calls and meetings. A little money when I could
I'm sick now.
Made sicker still by my own inability to DO it.
Your turn, pretty please!

My 4 gandparents were all born in/near what is now Odessa, Russia, or Ukraine. Jews that fled to America. ✡️
Maybe not unlike the Ukrainians who saught refuge here & who are now deemed "unwelcome" [from my most recent reading] by "the administration."
I hope all of you stand with 🇺🇦.

I'm deciding if social needs to be "either-or," or if there's a reason for me to enjoy BlueSky as well as the other.
So many wonderful people everywhere!
I do enjoy things beyond cats. Just no politics.
I'm not looking for an audience... just some good stuff to read besides my own crap.

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

Nothing scarier than El*n Muskmelon- head having access to the national checkbook.
Be very afraid.

I just struggled to take a short walk on a brilliantly beautiful day. I barely made it.
But resting on my front porch with my feet up, absolutely NOTHING hurts me right now. Precious moments...

It came out in tears this morning.
Not sobs- just accumulated recent sadness, loved ones feeling the same.
Some recent tragedies hit too close to home + my usual physical frailty.
But I've made it out into the sunshine & encourage you to do the same if able.
Be gentle with each other today & always

My daughter & I parked, heading to lunch Wed. in our town outside ATL. She took one look at the Southern style cafeteria where we had prepared to eat, looked at me with a frown and said, "I'm not really in the mood for a bunch of old white guys today."
I hugged her proudly, and we went elsewhere.

Hoping my Thriends will find me here. Who says you can't be two places at one time?

Nice to see you. I'm mostly on another platform & promise not to stalk you here!

I'm checking out Blue Sky as an option to existing platforms.
I'm a casual user, more "stream of consciousness" than content "creator."
Grandmotherly age, Atl area resident, cat owner, dog lover, Liberal but I don't do politics online. Or sports.
Give me cats, creativity, humor & open dialogue. Thx!
