A "Little Free Library" filled with only Merriam-Webster Dictionaries

Happy National Library Week to whoever did this.

Two Rottweilers lying down on a Very Clean kitchen floor. Just saying.

Hub meant to send me this pic but sent it to a lawyer we hardly know instead. He titled it, “Check out these 2 sleepy cuties.” 😂

She wrote back, “Hope they are doing well. They look quite comfortable!” And she added a heart!

Me to hub, “You may have accidentally done some good PR for our agency."

This is a dance off. If you see this, repost with a dance or get eliminated.

Yup.

And there you have it.

A white-haired part Sheepdog sitting. He’s wearing a sign that says he’s a therapy dog.

Yukon, a therapy-dog-for-everyone at Jefferson Courthouse, Colorado. We’ve met victim-therapy-dogs at court before, but Yukon is for anyone who needs a hug ❤️🐾 Which lots of people need at courthouses 😆

Yukon’s handler is behind him.

Congratulations!

Beautiful!

I’m sorry this happened. Personally, I got off Goodreads b/c some commenters were ridiculously mean.

I wasn’t the only one. A NYT-bestselling author, lots of books, dropped Goodreads after the reading horrible things they were saying about her books. She was stunned at some of the vicious comments.

'Marijuana' is the only English word in which the 'j' is silent.

Good News. After days of investigative work, judge's rulings at hearing today supported the defendant 👍 Before leaving courtroom, def's family asked for selfies of them & investigator-hub (I’d stayed home caretaking dog). Never had requests for selfies before. Sweet, meaningful. #JusticeWasServed

In 2023, Governor JB Pritzker was joined by Lieutenant Governor Juliana Stratton, Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias, advocates, and lawmakers at the Harold Washington Library to sign legislation outlawing book bans in Illinois.

Illinois made history as the first state to outlaw book bans once and for all.

Marginalizing people, ideas, or facts has no place in our state — and they have no place in a democracy.

This National Library Week, we continue our commitment to free thought and free speech.

Mountain home near Aspen, built for monks who labored in silence, sold to Palantir CEO for $120M The $120 million sale of the 3,700-acre St. Benedict’s Monastery in Old Snowmass was one of the largest residential sales in state history

A Colorado monastery & religious retreat is now Alex Karp’s personal vacation home. As Coloradans & past supporters of the monastery, this saddens & angers us.

A striped cat appears to be “yelling” at a kitten with the exact same coloring. The kitten’s eyes are wide open and their ears pinned back.

you just know somebody’s being called by their full name right now

Writing by hand made me think of Shelby Foote who wrote w/ a nib pen (many may recall his 3-volume history of the Civil War). I have all 3 volumes, bequeathed by my late father.

There are 1.2 million words in that 3-volume history. Amazing to think Foote wrote all that w/ a nib pen!

Our tax dollars at work.

Red and white gas pump from the 1950s. The price for 10 gallons of gas = $2.89.

Red and white neon sign that reads “Colorado U.S. 40 GAS"

Beige and blue sandwich shop, restored from the 1950s. Words: “SANDWICHES SHORT ORDERS STEAKS CHOPS CHILI"

Retro building from the 1930s-1950s. Sign: “Ethel’s Beauty Salon” and “88 cents Variety Store"

Went to park hub hasn’t seen in 40 years (!). Back then there were old, restored farm houses (still there) but when city tore down buildings from 1930s-1950s, they restored some & added to park: L-R gas station (10 gallons $2.89!), sandwich shop, beauty salon.

Love Jamie Schler’s posts. I’ve also had different careers but never dreamed I'd become a "private eye.” While friends were retiring & being grandmothers, I was sitting on surveillance in a bad neighborhood looking for an abducted child.

Think I’ll make Jamie’s cake today ⬇️

Found that child, btw ❤️

Graphic of a Tuxedo Cat with words and arrows describing each section of cat, for example, “Velvet limo hood” describes cat’s back and “sneaky socks” describes its little white feet

Like the time hub had his headphones on while vacuuming…vacuumed the entire living room unaware the vacuum was unplugged :)
