Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

So it looks like Mueller is... following the money. What a novel concept.

We never see our neighbors in the winter (save for shoveling).

Yup, this. And we haven't had any huge storms where we have to do a whole brigade, so I've barely met the new people. Soon as it gets less awful, we're doing a driveway firepit. But really, we're all just hibernating right now.

That looks nice, Jesse!

I have not spent my way out of winter doldrums but I leave for Mexico tomorrow, so hope to leave doldrums behind!!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Fun, meara!

Purty, Jesse!

Nice data center, Laura!

I don't know why I'm awake, but I guess I'll go with it.

t, I'm awake because I'm in a lyft on the way to the airport. There is no reason for you to be awake. Goodness

Bon voyage!

I did sleep a lot yesterday, so maybe I have finally slept enough? We'll see how long that lasts.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have not spent my way out of winter doldrums but I leave for Mexico tomorrow, so hope to leave doldrums behind!!

Such a good idea.

Our wings are not tired.

Yay! Sweet travels! Never been to Mexico, that should change.

I have consumed my breakfast and a couple cups of coffee and now and determined to not have my newspaper sit in the blue bag all week. I have already read the sports section, which I did first to pass it on to DH.

Oh, that reminds me of a cute memory. Dear MIL from 2nd marriage used to read the paper every morning and cut out every article she thought FIL would enjoy. Usually around 4-6 items. Since they were continued on multiple pages she would tape them together for ease of reading. She only cooked breakfast as they ate out every evening, and she gave him his reading material with his breakfast. She was not even remotely a warm woman, so I found this particularly adorable.

And now to the NYT.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Meara, safe and happy travels!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Safe travels, meara!

Ugh. Mr. S had a nightmare or something similar and woke up crying at 2 this morning. Gary ended up bringing him into our bed to calm him down, which worked...eventually. Then we got woken up at 8:30 by a tree service chipping up fallen branches. It needs to be done, I know, but at 8:30 on a Sunday morning?
