Starting perimenopause was not on my bingo card for 2025 but here we are…

Just a reminder for fellow attorneys:
It is always worth your time to be nice to court staff.

I'm not going to lie. I miss coffee. I haven't had it in years because I found out I am allergic. But, truth be told, it's only because I miss the cool flavors of coffee creamer...

Did I just code switch into my Appalachian accent to talk to a warden at a prison in Georgia? Yes. Was it helpful? Absolutely.

I'm not going to lie. It's weird when your friends serve in the State or Federal Legislatures and you see them on the national news.

Democrats fled Texas in protest of gerrymandering that would erase five Democratic congressional seats.

Texas is going to be the "guinea pig,” says State Rep. Cassandra Garcia Hernandez. “Once Trump is able to get what he needs out of Texas, he's essentially just going to do it in other states.”

If I end my email with only "Regards," I'm pissed.

I am proud to be able to say that I personally know three of the Texas Democrats that’s broke quorum this week. I will continue to support them in their endeavors to defend democracy.

Today I’m at college orientation for my daughter. I keep getting confused for a student. I know I have on a graphic tee and converse, but I have some white hair!

The show "Have I Got News For You" is the only reason I am surviving the current political climate.

I know most, if not all, of us have accidentally sent a text to the wrong person, but PLEASE make sure you don't send those texts to your attorney... please...

🔥 OBAMA: “IMAGINE IF I HAD DONE ANY OF THIS… I say this not on a partisan basis. This has to do with something more precious — who are we as a country, and what values do we stand for?” 🇺🇸

6 more days until I go with the ACLU of Texas, Equality Texas, Human Rights Campaign, Texas Freedom Network, and Transgender Education Network of Texas to the Texas capitol for All In for Equality Advocacy Day.

Although I have been practicing Estate Planning and Probate for YEARS, my heart still breaks when a client passes away.

I have two clients that have the exact same name, first, middle, and last. I have to tell them apart my the names of their children.

Roofers started replacing our roof at 6:05 this morning. I was not prepared for the sound of 20 workers attacking our roof with tools that early in the morning.

Working on intestate estates reminds me to keep my family small. Dividing property into 1/108ths is crazy making.

There is a special level of hell for people who start a group chat with 20 people when there are other options for communication. I don't believe in hell... but if I did, there would be a special place for them.

I dreamt in French last night. Apparently all my friends have also learned French according to my dream.

This is fascism.

I would happily give the noro I contracted from my grandbaby to the fascists. Phone calls aren’t really an option right now. #resist

I no longer have a voice after screaming into the void all week. Still haven’t woken up from this nightmare.

This photo will live in my brain forever.

If you are addressing an email to two attorneys, please don't call the male attorney "Mr. [Last Name]" and then call the female attorney "Ms. [First Name]." #petpeeves

Six years ago I was single with no kids. Now, I am married, have four kids and a grandchild. Life is so different and I cannot imagine life without all these lovelies in my life.

I feel like I’ve done an okay job of not having a panic attack since the 20th…. Until today. What the actual f*ck is happening in this hellscape?

if we staff ICE with Uvalde police officers, they'll never enter schools

My law firm has been in business for almost 5 months. I have been so blessed in this journey and I am so pleased with how many people I have been able to assist in the last 5 months. I have built countless relationships and look forward to many more years of serving my community.
