Hi friends. I’m doing better. My MA is almost done, and I’m trying to be better about making time for joyful things like field trips & personal travel, too. However, I remain 100% disgruntled about the state of our country’s “leadership” & our lack of concern for our planet, as well.

Heading with my fifth graders to the @montereybayaquarium.org this morning to experience an ocean lab & see the bioluminescent creatures! It’s a two hour bus ride from Daly City, but I know this trip will create a lifetime memory for these kids!

Ancho the cat is laying on papers on a desk, looking self satisfied. He’s a stripy tabby that might be part Bengal. He’s big, long, & agile for a six month old kitten.

Ancho says, “Oh, thank you, I think I will, right here on Mom’s papers.”

This is some kind of incredible love story.

Happy Saturday! I’m up early drinking coffee and writing a research article critique for a class that is challenging my sanity this semester, but I’ll be so happy when it’s done.

Goodnight

And they are still coming.

Good morning Brenda & Crew! School is now off to a good start. The fifth graders helped weed & spread fresh straw in the Pumpkin Patch. I love getting ready for fall. 🍁 🎃 🍂 ☕️

Thank you on this labor day!!

This would be a good time to have an active and reliable CDC. 🙄

If you ask yourself why Republicans would want “the masses” to think vaccines are risky, ask yourself who suffers when vaccines are deemed unnecessary - the blue collar & the poor - and who are they?

Well, they are mostly urban Democrats.

The rich will fly their kids to France to get vaccines…

Netflix just gave Gavin Newsom 2 million for the redistricting fight and made a deal with Sesame Street. New episodes will air there and the backlog of old episodes will Be free to watch.

Netflix picked a side. I will keep my subscription.

This Labor Day (and all other days): Thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Honor the workers who teach your children.

Pay all workers a living wage.

Television legend Stephen Colbert has just signed a $13.5 million deal with Netflix for a 7-episode series.

Gavin Newsom, for the win! Let's fucking go! 🙌💪👏✊👇

Clever captions can wait, coffee first, it’s Sunday.

I cannot stress just how important it is to let people have their early Halloween decorations and pumpkin spice drinks and be as basic as they wanna be this year without making them feel some type of way about it. Like, for your own safety.

A beautiful quote that says, “There are rare people who will show up at the right time, help you through the hard times and stay into your best times... Those are your keepers.”

Simply your companionship gives me hope not all is lost.
