Read, pray, play with pets, & cook.
No organization is perfect, but the number of innocent people in the world who are going to die because USAID funding has stopped and all staff being withdrawn is horrific.

Faith-based refugee agencies incl World Relief & @usccbofficial.bsky.social ramped up efforts prior to Pres Trump's 2nd term—fearing he'd eliminate refugee programs.

Even they were caught off guard by a govt. memo telling them to stop working w/ refugees already in US.

How long before Congress passes the immigration bill H
Johnson wouldn't bring to the floor previously? I suspect the bill will be passed shortly with no substantive changes just so it can be signed by current admin.

Listening to Rev. Budde's sermon from the National Prayer Service, while she didn't mention any specific scripture passage, the passage that comes to mind in Micah 6:8. To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.

Many cite the cost of "Home Alone" groceries ftom 1990 to 2024 as sign of inflation. Since it has been 34 years, I wonder what that list would have cost in 1956?

1 pie & 1 batch of cookies done; 1 pie & 1 batch of cookies to go. Then on to prep for the real food.

Enjoyed an uncharacteristically warm November afternoon to enjoy a long walk at the park with our dogs. Followed up by playing with a slam ball & battle ropes.
