Honored to be on the American Counseling Association's Advocacy Day expert panel yesterday with other Maryland Counseling Association members. #Advocacy is more than marches and elections. Looking forward to building on our momentum. #CounselorsAdvocate #TherapistSky
I am sitting on a raised platform with dark table covers next to 3 other MCA members, all with serious expressions while discussing how we advocate for our clients and profession in our professional practice.

At the 10 anniversary of @silentbookclub.bsky.social in #Bethesda I picked up a bucket list read from @tkingfisher.com & I devoured it in less than a week! My dad asked 4 next read & I'm to seek out more to add to my collection. My son has threatened to open a library with my book collections 😂😂😂
Screenshot of a book cover, black with a red apple surrounded by herbs and flowers that read: Hemlock and Silver by T. Kingfisher a NYT bestselling author. Side view of the Hemlock and Silver T. Kingfisher's book that shows a neon green page edges with a white hand with blue nail polish holding the book lovingly against a green and black paisley background. Gel Nail polish is still decent from my daughter's wedding on August 31!

😞 Didn't think stealing #Honda airbags was still a thing! Someone stole both mine and my mom's from in front of our house Mon night. 🤬🤬🤬 not much hope to find and convict thieves. Idiots didn't take anything else of value, missed cooler full of beverages. @jwaldstreicher.bsky.social

Happy #HumpDay #HappyHour #EatLocal #Rockville #Bethesda
Plated zucchini, lightly fried on top of lettuce, minus the usual sauce. Stunning appetizer enough for a small meal! Fried plantains, a skewer of filet mignon (cooked medium) with cucumber salad. Plated elegantly on a white table cloth.

There is a glass candy vase with blue wrapped mints and electric tea lights on the table. Photo of newlyweds entering reception. The Bride is wearing a simple white dress with a powder blue sash, carrying a bouquet of flowers. The Groom has a simple black suit with a blue paisley tie. They are both smiling.

Reported this invader to the MD Dept of Agriculture before dispatching it with gusto, AND remembered to take a photo for positive identification this time. #SpottedLanternfly #Maryland #DeptofAgriculture

Surprise rainbow on the way home from a good meal, after the vendor walk thru for my daughter's upcoming wedding. Mango Sorbet from ChefTonys in #Rockville, random #Rainbow 100% humidity #HHH #DMVSummer 🤣
Orange colored Mango Sorbet in a white bowl with Coconut Cream. (Almost ate the whole thing before snapping a picture to share). Photo from a stopped car of the skyline, with white wispy clouds and a rainbow arching over a two story business building with a few white vans out front. It did not rain that I know of before the rainbow appeared, scattered thunderstorms were forecast after 100-degree heat index.

First pic how it started, second one how it ended. Moved all my stuff into storage and officially moving in with my parents to help with caretaking, although I've been here a year. My old rental apartment was too expensive to continue as a storage unit.
Photo of a storage unit, lined with blue tarps on the bottom and multiple storage shelves filled with boxes and bins. A broken shelf is in the foreground. Photo of the same storage unit, filled to the brim with an additional 8 bookshelves filled with boxes, a bedroom set, and multiple bins, toys, tools with boxes organized at the back and strewn together in the front, as time was of the essence to finish the task of moving.
