Good morning to all my X's!
The kitten jumped in the pool again this morning chasing a gecko. So, again, I did some early morning swimming in my PJs. We had a front come through last night that left us breezy and a brisk 59ยฐF. The kitten needs a faster learning curve. ๐คฃ

Marty, ever since losing Molly Ivins to cancer, TX has missed a talented writer concerning the hypocrisy of TX politics. You would be a great candidate to pick up the banner.

Sorry Cathy. Some (many), don't believe us blue dots live in FL.
Neighbor called yesterday. They are reupping their ins. They, like us, were paying around $1500, South Central FL. Can't find a policy under $8000 now.

Nope, it's true. I'm a Floridian and know. Desantis is despicable. Says he is bringing freedom to Florida, he's restricting freedoms on anyone that doesn't believe him and his authoritarian views.Oh, and when I lived in Massachusetts, I found more bigots there than most places.
Good morning good people! Hope your day is wonderful.
Thought I locked one of the cats outside this morning. Turns out it wasn't one of ours. Never could see it. Would howl up a storm until I walked outside. Felt like I was in Groundhog Day. in, out, in, out ...
It's SCIENCE people. A virus mutates. That is why the flu vaccine changes each year. Until EVERYONE is vaccinated for Covid 19, it will mutate to find a host. So until we are all dead or vaccinated, get the booster.
Anyone can fall at any age at any time. At my college graduation my friend took a tumble walking up the stairs to get their diploma.
Biden is mentally and physically strong. He tripped over a sandbag, joked about it and is perfectly fine, so get over it!
@SarahWatson42
Just to say, I'm a boomer and totally agree with Biden's plan. I believe he hit a good compromise.
I went to college on a full scholarship. If I hadn't had that, I would not have been able because my family was lower middle class. Someone paid my way, thank you.
This is an excellent reveal.

you do know you can't believe everything you read? it's plastic.
and why? it's not like you're going to put the legs back in it. it's garbage, treat it as such.
It's funny, I guess. I follow people who interest me. Not big on numbers or tweeting, just a lot of "likes" for people who say things much better than I. I am truly fortunate though that many I follow vet me and choose to follow back. Thank you.

18 U.S.C. ยง 922(d)(1) makes it a federal crime to sell a firearm to a person who is under felony indictment.
And 18 U.S.C. ยง 922(n) makes it a federal crime for a person under indictment to ship or transport a firearm.

Basically lost the whole maternal side of my family over a Bible. ๐คฃ oh, the irony. I was in 6th grade and somehow it ended up in my hands years later; an agnostic. Immediately shipped it off to a cousin after copying the family tree.

I was in a conference when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned and saw a woman I had helped financially 10 years prior. She said "I think of you everyday and what you did for me. And I want you to know I paid it forward." Best day of my life.
@kristy_clueless
As you can see @ responses, there are many opportunities. Remember this, Union jobs pay more with more benefits. Keep in mind because better pay/benefits means you retire earlier with more pension. Good luck to you. Determine what job/career you can handle w/ the best end sight.

someone on Twitter a few months back asked people for some sparky replies when people would mutter "sheep" to them for wearing a mask. One woman stated that she just turns to them and says "I really don't want to hear about your sexual escapades from last night ".

I could say something like lack of knowledge or just plain meanness; yet I believe it is the basic emotion of fear. They have backed themselves into a corner and are seeing the consequences.
The true Threat To Democracy is the entire Republican party and it's base voters who no longer want to live in a democracy in which they cannot get 100% of their way 100% of the time.
@GiseleDubson
Get him a buddy. Kittens do better in twos. We found out to late for Mikey. We found putting his cat tree at the front window with the shade opened helped. Mikey would watch the nocturnal activities from his perch.

agree with you about the boomers, and I am a tail end boomer. I miss that everyone was going to stay hippies and change the world better for everyone.
@JennMGreenberg
Our neighborhood is 30 mph. Drivers seem to have a hard time with the limit on the main artery that is maybe 1 mile long. My neighbor was in such a rush to get around me that he cut the corner to his block and promptly hit the street sign dead center.
