Good morning from my 10 foot sunflower.

Today feels like a strawflower day!

I regret to inform you all that earlier today my children escaped their sandbox. I told them explicitly “stay in your sandbox” but they are just too powerful.

Wish I had enough money to travel abroad so I can eat lettuce again.

Be the purple coneflower 💜🫶💪

To the cook who included fries with my BLT instead of the salad substitute I asked for, thank you. How did you know?

I always think I’ll join in on the #3GoodThings tag but it’ll probably just be a list of snacks I had that day

Remember:
The only one stopping you from becoming a shapeshifting bear who is also the beloved mayor of a charming little town in the forest is you.

The fine
Grit of
Stars in
My blood
Will keep me
Burning.

I have never had a plan. I just show up at different places, chewing on a hunk of bread

Me, talking to my daughter while she has a big wad of snot in her nose: "Hey, it's a booger!"

Her: "DADDY, DON'T TALK TO ME OR LOOK AT ME."

The new school year begins in less than 3 weeks and I need your help making my classroom a safe and welcoming space for my HS special education students.

Here at the dawning of another fine day, here near the Bay.

In this house, we believe:
- love is love
- science is real
- the sun is a sky demon
- all trees are haunted
- squirrels cannot be trusted with money

@Saltssaltgirl You got it. Growing up, I had a friend slightly older than me with Down's. He was a hoot (his nickname for me was "Underwear", which he pronounced gackoware, and I never knew why). I used to stay with him and his younger sister when we were teenagers and his parents went out. (I can't call it "babysitting" but he couldn't be left on his own.)

You're doing important work.

Because of a reply to someone earlier, I've gone down a rabbit hole in my mind.

🕳Drop rope. 😜

I only started acknowledging my bday a few years ago to *some.* I have a lot of bday baggage. Birthdays weren't much celebrated in my house when I was little and then I grew to really hate "aging" quite young. Highkey hate. (Not the same as living which I quite like a lot.)

I don't like to discuss age (still) but I have grown to see my birthday kinda the way I see my son's, a day to celebrate him because of his fantastic qualities.

Today is not my bday and arguably I am having to relearn how to appreciate myself in 2026, but I absolutely do recognize that my loyalty, passion, strength, humor, and ability to help where I can, how I can, all make me a wonderful person.

(Bane the fence installer seems quite short with me today so maybe he's not one to check in and verify any of these statements with.)

🥂 to all the Leos ♌️ 🙌

Today is Venn Day, in celebration of the mathematician John Venn, born on this day in 1834. To commemorate the occasion, here’s a poem in the form of a Venn Diagram.

Hello everyone. Making my first post today. I'm brand new here, just looking for a quiet, peaceful space and hoping to find some good people to chat with. Testing things out with a picture of my dog. Hope everyone is having a good week.

Lights out in the cabin, lying on the bed with Charlene, listening to the heavy rain on the roof. ❤️
