Yes. Every dollar a billionaire hoards is a dollar a worker could be using to pay for their kid's dance lessons, or a vacation, or even just prescriptions

We spend our Sunday after Thanksgiving doing Xmas decorations and then watch A Charlie Brown Xmas and How the Grinch Stole Xmas (original cartoon)

Now the embargo on Christmas music and movies is lifted in our house.

Seen today:

"Chicken Poop" brand lip balm

I'm curious who this appeals to

I used to work a job that hot me home in the middle of the night

It offered some unique views, including hazy, empty streets

Sadly, the Duck Hunt gun only works on an old non-flat screen TV.

So snag one at a garage sale if you want to enjoy the nostalgia

The Xmas music hasn't started yet but the "One, two, TREE!" Video on a 90 second loop is torture

Last winter was freakishly warm for North Dakota

Lots of thaw/freeze cycles. But at least we got some cool scenes from the ice.

Even if it made walking and driving much more precarious (yes, I fell and hurt myself twice)

Not gonna lie. "ONE, TWO, TREE!" on repeat for 15 hours a week* might drive me to violence this holiday season

*2nd job in retail to pay for braces for two kids

The 2017 eclipse was amazing, for several reasons

Thousands of people, suddenly cheering and laughing with sunset in every direction

But mostly it's because I was in the middle of a divorce and I took my two kids, then 6 and 8, on the trip across 3 states

Blue Sky is, so far, very pleasant.

For now, I'm simply content to post my favorite photos that I've taken

Blue skies
Smiling at me
Nothing but blue skies
Do I see
