Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good health to your dad, Sheryl, and to you, Tom!

Because books.

Health ~ma for Sheryl's dad and for Tom's tooth!

I ran out of ideas for social media posts for the bakery, so I just scheduled a photo of the Sharpei curled up like a croissant, and the sloths or pain au chocolat? meme.

Thrive to spite them

I would say fuck cancer but it's not cancer.

My mom's best friend , who has been like a second mother, she's had problems with her tongue and speech. It happened after a dental procedure and they thought it was nerve damage.

Now they are thinking it's ALS.

If there is any spare health~ma you can send to Florida

Good luck to sheryl's family & tommyrot's teeth, and askye's mother's friend.

I finally got to the updates on Ask a Manager and OH MY GOD SRSLY?!

Holy cow amazing. I only saw the 2 updates: the one where he (?) admitted the team had been bullying the departed coworker, and the one where he admitted he was suspended. Were there more?

I was going to eat healthy today, but after the Senate vote and a few stressful work conversations, I didn't have it in me, and I got a super carnitas burrito. And I made a margarita. NOM.

Now I have the latest Kate Elliott novel to read!

I may eat a healthy caprese salad for dinner out of sheer laziness.

At least one more where Letter Writer was bragging about being better educated than the departed coworker.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Three hours later, and I'm finally able to tear myself away from AAM. Damn you, Jesse. There's a reason why I carefully ration my access.

'suela, it's a she. Evidently acting like a bro is not exclusive to the males.

Much ~ma to everyone who needs it.

You know, I finally saw some clips of the Mooch. The way he talks about Trump throwing a great spiral, swishing free-throws, and nailing long putts really has a DPRK news service feel to it.

I'm on a news blackout.

I've seen 4 momma grizzlies and cavorting twins cubs, 3 momma moose with twin calves, countless caribou, some pooping for the cameras, sheeps, a couple of teen moose behaving badly (one was ripping up a road construction stake and flinging it around and challenging a seriously huge tonka-esque dump truck!) and really cool magpies and ptarmigan and pika that bark like sneakers on a gym floor.

I've almost pissed myself laughing in an atv driven by my SIL, biked 15ish miles after not being on a bike in a decade, and still not seen Denali due to weather. Tomorrow, eco, zip line, god help me.

We're all having our moments, but we're also having fun.

But for the record, the Denali National Park rangers are doubling down hard on conservation, climate change. I seriously haven't heard such strident messaging in the parks ever.
