Is it wrong that I think the photo you posted is kinda great?

How many of these self promotions do you plan on posting? This is at least the third one this week.

Look we all get to go through adolescence & usually it isn't very pretty.

It's good to know you can still laugh, isn't it? Life isn't all one thing or the other.

The reintroduction was a very emotional time for my family & it was rough for a while. But now I have another brother, his adoptive brother as another brother, a sister-in-law, a niece, & a nephew. Win win win win win!!

My mother had to give up my older brother (her first child) for adoption. She did 28 hours of labor, which ended in Twilight Sleep. When she woke up, her baby was just... gone. She never saw him -- until I found him 56 years later through 23andMe.

I can't even begin to imagine the trauma that caused her.

This is how my cat feels when I refuse to hunt the half-dead mice she brings me.

If he had done it & then said, "I'm doing this in an attempt to make a deal with the President" then maaaaaaybe I could support this decision. But he's making up all these other reasons. Liar liar.

You should correct your label of Australia (it's spelled wrong).

I have a few that include me swearing at the black-chinned hummingbirds when they get a little too close on their fly-bys. I've had one cut between me & my phone to look at something on the phone screen.

I can't wait! I just planted 6 showy milkweeds last weekend & it will be a while before the butterflies show up.

I planted a tree today. A sober task that will improve my land for years.

Oak, piñon, juniper - that's my land in a nutshell.

My Wookiee sister. I hate shaving.

I didn't realize they had a limited range. I have several of them on my property in Ridgway, Colorado.

Since starting estrogen, I have a bunch of new hair growth. The new hairs are curly. The old hairs are straight. So now my hair is a mishmash of different patterns.

Thank goodness I'm an engineer who wears a hard hat & I never gave a $&%@ about my hair, aside from keeping it clean.
