We truly lucked out this week. The weather has been the best it’s been in forever and we literally have spent every minute we could outside. Which in turn lead to the tiny human and I quite possibly finding the coolest thing ever while playing “paleontologist” in our yard ... an actual FOSSIL !!! I suspect it’s a

Any Jezzies out there with parents suffering with Alzheimer’s? We checked my dad into a psychiatric hospital program for seniors 10 days ago suffering from what we thought was a manic episode that had devolved into delirium (he’s bipolar). We thought they could get him stabilized and he’d come out his version of

Since I have more PTO in this new job than I have ever had before, and I no longer have to scrape and save my days for holidays, illnesses, and family emergencies, I took yesterday off just to have a day off. The hammock and stand I had ordered for my balcony came in, so I spent part of the night before assembling it

I love Duckwoth and Durbin, but this is not a good state! I live in Chicago, and once in awhile, they want to kick us out or divide Cook into two counties, which makes it entertaining. I was born and raised here, but I want to see if they will kick us out. I guess Indiana will get more tax money.

I didn’t move to Michigan last year because of Gov Whitmer, but she sure did make the decision a lot easier. More badass women in government, please!

It’s expensive as heck here, and the winters can be brutal, but the politics is the reason I’m still here. If I lived in a deep red state, I’d probably be in jail now, having popped off on somebody. I’m very proud and happy to be represented by Duckworth and Durbin. (Side note: That sounds like a great name for a law

Just do a search on Soviet women pilots and check all the results. This one might be my favorite: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_Witches

GO TAMS.

I would like to point out to Fucker Carlson that the most feared snipers of WWII were Russian Women. That not only are women welcome in many militaries, in some countries (such as Israel) they are required to serve. That not every person in the air force is a fighter pilot, most airmen and airwomen are not pilots, and

That shade was the best shade. That shade could cool a whole wedding party on a hot summer day. That shade could kill a lawn. That shade was so deep the light from the sun would take a million years to get there.

It should be noted that flight doctors and a variety of other position around flying squadrons wear flight suits. My Air Force spouse wore one for four years and is not a pilot. This is just common sense lol

Is he really stupid enough to think we’ll be sending pregnant women into combat?

For good measure, Duckworth quipped that she—a woman who lost both legs in combat—likely dances better than Tucker”

Let’s see...whose opinions on the military are more likely to be valid? Tucker Carlson or Tammy Duckworth? Man, that’s a real tough call.

Now playing

Tucker’s been exponentially getting worse. Remember back when Jon Stewart handed him his ass on Crossfire? He’s definitely on a different level of bad faith, now.

Last summer, we let the Amazon deliveryguy have some water AND use the washroom when he came into the office to drop off some Prime orders for the Management team. It’s really not hard Mr. Bezos.

Hurray! Wishing you a side effect free vaccination!

I love that! Good food with your loved ones.

What did everyone make this week? I made this Persian Flatbread, with everything bagel seasoning instead of just black and white sesame seeds. The onions and salt really added to the flavor I felt.

I don’t know if I’ve ever mentioned this BUT I live a few miles from both the ocean and a pretty large forrest. So from time to time we have controlled burns and they’ve been going on the past few days. It’s always a bit unsettling to see and also keeps us inside. BUT It’s definitely better than the alternative. So
