I absolutely despise ordering from the McDonalds app.

Just had a neighborhood kid refer to me as a lady and I’ve never felt older.

Standing tall and blooming bright — the gladiolus never misses a chance to show off.

From sprouting green shoots to full, vibrant blooms — watch a minute of pure magic as these gladiolus grow through every stage of life. A gentle reminder that beauty takes time.

I don’t know many moves but figured squats and lunges are a good start.

I really want to get into weightlifting but I need to start with the tiniest baby steps to build momentum. What could I do in 10 minutes per day? I have a pair of 8lb dumbbells and a 15lb kettlebell.

Yes! I love this show!

I just heard a man answer “if I were doing any better, I’d be twins” when asked how he’s doing. That’s a new one for me.

SPOILER ALERT

Wait a second. You’re telling me that Gene Hackman wasn’t the grandpa in Willy Wonka?

That sounds amazing!

Every time I watch Bob’s Burgers I’m reminded that I want to be an eccentric millionaire.

I used to date a guy who questioned how earth worms lived because the earth is made of salt. He was annoyed with how frequently I disagreed with him.

I used to babysit a girl who’s favorite movie was Children of the Corn.

Where the hell is Lin-Manuel Miranda? Why isn’t he, in full costume, outside the Treasury Department, right now, RAPPING?!

Remembering President Carter... Shan and I were blessed to have heard President Jimmy Carter teach Sunday School in Plains twice. One of the times he discussed my favorite Bible story – when Jesus meets the Samaritan woman at the we...

On the drive home today my son asked me if I would “follow duck.” After a confusing and frustrating back and forth he really enunciated and I heard “volume up” Awww my baby wanted me to crank up his jam. 🥰

I bought this for myself as a Christmas present and I love it!

I wrote a research paper once and when I turned it in I never wanted to think about it again.

I quit TikTok cold turkey and now I wonder if I don’t like my family. 😳

Did you know? On average, you swallow about 1.5 liters of spit every day. That’s like chugging a big soda—except way less refreshing.

James Harvey III, Tuskegee airman, leader of the team that won the US military's first aerial gunnery competition for combat aviators. AKA, Top Gun. James Harvey is a handsome Black man in WW2 uniform with an indomitableble look of calm confidence.

Hey, while we're talking about erasing history:

In 1949 the US military held its first Aeriel Gunnery Competition, later known as "Top Gun."

The best of the best competed in dogfighting and other skills. The team that won, was the 332nd: The Tuskegee airmen.

So they refused to announce a winner🤡

I love the combination of spinach, mushrooms and sausage! I bet Swiss chard would be great, thank you!

When I was little my mom would rent movies from the library. I know I watched The Never Ending Story a million times. I remember being in love with that movie. Today, I only remember two things about it. Some kind of locked cage with books and something about quicksand. Should I watch it grown up?

Did we just become best friends?

My four year old told me he misses our dog and is going to dig him up. The dog has been dead 2 years, half of my son’s life. I told him he would be disappointed. He asked why, to which I responded “he’s just bones now.” And that was the end of the conversation.

I think it’s less about Pluto’s coolness and more about having things taken away.

I think a lot of us learned things about ourselves that the clock app algorithm knew before we did. I, for example, learned that I love folk music. I think I knew this all along but didn’t know how to define it.
