New Orleans liberal. Wife and mom, frequent foster to dogs and cats. Books, travel. Enjoy collecting recipes I may / may not ever cook.

Reading: “Born A Crime” by Trevor Noah

Just Finished: “The Testaments” Atwood
Someone else mentioned the Grüns vitamins. I also take them and have gotten my husband and parents on them. We all notice a difference.

I use an app called “me again” to track my water, protein, fiber intake and activity every day. If I did not track it, I would not eat enough at all because the food noise is gone and I am not hungry.
If you keep going this way, without eating, you will lose more muscle and get weaker.

Difference between 2005 in New Orleans/ Mississippi and 2025 is that now the rest of the country should know by now their government would abandon them in their time of greatest need too.

I honestly don’t know anyone who ever acquired it 😂 just people who tolerated it

I don’t know. I’d have to get my old job back. So maybe Frankfurt. Sigh. Boring Frankfurt.

Now that you mention this.. my husband wants to move from NEw Orleans to Baltimore and I want to just go ahead and move back to Germany. What say you?

I delayed starting it for about a year because I was nervous about side effects too. I wish I had started a year ago. I’d be at my goal weight already!

If you hate nausea take Tirzepatide (Mounjaro/ Zepbound) instead of Semaglutide. Less side effects. I’ve been on it for 4 months now, zero side effects. Lost about 5-6 lbs per month.

Cheering you on from New Orleans! You are going to be great!

Everything eventually comes back to the Power Broker

Longstreet actually deserves a base named after him. He is reviled by the lost cause set. Read the most recent book about him. It’s quite good.

As someone who saw the aftermath of Katrina on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and in New Orleans, this decision by FEMA is going to kill people who would have otherwise survived in the next disasters to come

Loved Lincoln in the Bardo. Pachinko is on my list

I watched it all, and then I read the book. The first season of the show follows the book 90%. Then the next 4 seasons of the show were written for tv. I also can’t wait until The Testaments to come out on tv
July 3, 2025 at 12:35 PM
Yes. I watched it all over the years, but it would be a great show to watch right about now.

New Orleans doesn’t have many good options for mayor, but he would be a mistake. Sigh.

Thanks for this rec, putting on my list!

People should have elected Mandie Landry for the state senate seat. Duplessis has done what with it? And doesn’t seem to want it.

She’s already asleep. She’s had such a rough day I can’t bring myself to wake her. So I think I will have to tough it out for tonight. 🥵
June 27, 2025 at 3:24 AM
She asked me to stay with her. So what do you do? Never say a word? Or say something?
