Columbine just never ended, did it?

I'm so terribly sorry, heartfelt condolences.

I think this pup is harder than taking care of a human baby!

My doggy has terrible seizures every few months and it usually involves a frantic ER visit, a week of trauma, middle of the night meds, monitoring and so much lost sleep. I can't imagine months...

There is nothing more loving and nurturing than being gifted a shower beer

My daughter was on track to be born a Taurus but, because of a cat, she was born an Aries.

For better or worse!

Congratulations! My paperback is on it's way!

I live on the upper Deschutes and reported activity continues to grow!

Once upon a time a kindly, tall man helped me with an item on a high shelf. I thanked him and made a little joke, "If you ever need me to grab something down low, I'll be happy to help." Welp. That was awkward. 🫠

I have done this with a dog treat 🫠

It's my teen's birthday- she'd definitely love a new historical milestone for the list.

I like that pod! But- heartfelt condolences...

So many choices! I could have been Vinaigrette Bleeding Heart Liberal

We have everything in common, it seems

I told my teen about the tan suit scandal the other day and I don't think she believed me.

When I was grieving deeply I drove myself crazy- why was I not on a road to healing, it felt so unbearable. The bone deep relief I felt when I got into therepy and my therapist explained that grief is not road but a rollercoaster... and not to be hidden but to be in the light, to be spoken about.

Trump's Forest Service “reorganization” is really a plan to gut the agency ahead of wildfire season and keep folks in Oregon and across the country from having a say in how we protect public lands.

HELL NO! I'll fight this as lead Dem on the Interior Appropriations Subcommittee.

Thank you Senator! Our property backs up to the Deschutes National Forest. We used to feel like we were living our dream, but now we live in fear of reduced wildfire mitigation and protection as well as greedy developers.

Greetings and good morning it’s the Saturday farm rush hour for our forever friends

PNW for the win! I'm an OR high desert dweller and love it so much.

I have to text everybody about it lol

I live in rural central Oregon so it's a real treat. Not the usual good ole boy 😂

Yes! One is more darkly emo than than the other- who is like The Vampire Lestat

My chimney sweep guys are, like, goth vampires! I'm so excited to see them every year in their velvet tailcoats and finery.
