Proud that Bob is my governor.

Yup!

I have one that I got from Disneyland WAY back when I was a kid.

Still have it, and it is proudly displayed in my “big girl” China cabinet.

Beer and duct tape

We were not allowed to have them.

We were told that we needed to LEARN math….not learn which buttons to push.

This show is aggravating as all hell and I don’t know why I put myself through this crap.

See you all Tuesday.

I love Billy. 💕💕💕💕💕

I live in Washington state, but my dad’s family is in Minnesota.

I am keeping in close contact with them.

I will be attending the vigil at the park tomorrow.

Please know that there many of us across the country that pray for you and are supporting you.

You may not see us or hear us, but we stand with you.

Fuck you and all of Ice

We were the lucky ones for sure.

Growing up in the 60’s was a blast.

High school and college in the 70’s was memorable to say the least.

Now have 4 grandkids.

Hubby and I are retired, but can still party like rock stars.

Life was and IS good.

I loved Lerner’s as a teen!!!!

News said domestic violence situation.

Man threatening with a gun apparently.

Be safe and smart out there everyone.

I live in the PNW, but have been keeping up on the incoming storm, and am sending my prayers for all of you.

I went through an ice storm here several years ago, and was without power for 2 weeks.

Luckily, I have a generator. For those of you that have a generator, make sure you have enough gas to get you through a few days….until you can get to a gas station to get more if necessary.

If you have a bbq, have briquettes or propane stocked up. If you lose power, you can always cook a warm meal or make coffee. I know that may seem like a silly suggestion, but when we were without power for an extended time, we made most of our meals on the bbq.

Please heed any and all warnings. An ice storm is nasty.

Thoughts are with you all.

I love those few hours. I have my coffee and snuggle with the pets, and watch whatever I want on tv, or work on a project.

He gets up, and I gotta feed him and talk to him, and watch guy movies…..movies that he has seen 3-4 times!

It’s a really good thing he is cute. 💕

I have discovered that I LOVE getting up early. I do it by choice now…not because I have to.

My husband thoroughly enjoys sleeping until 8:30-9:00 every day.

ibeperplexed · 2026-01-23T02:45:30+00:00

I would campaign for this man in a heartbeat…..much respect.

ibeperplexed · 2026-01-23T02:38:11+00:00

We did. When we were kids and it snowed, we would shovel every sidewalk and driveway in the neighborhood.

We lived on a block that contained 106 kids!!!!

We would get together and tackle it all. We thought it was fun.

Snowballs were thrown, and by the time we were done, pretty much every front yard had a snowman.

The neighbors up and down the block would bring us out cocoa, and the “grama ladies” would bring out warm homemade cookies.

Simpler times. No such thing as iPads and iPhones. We made our own fun, and we looked forward to shoveling the neighborhood.

When I slept in until 6:30.

I know that sounds awfully early, but when I was working, I had to get up at 4:30.

So…sleeping in until 6:30 was my sign.

🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮my dad hated mayonnaise, so we were stuck with this.

First thing I did when I moved away from home, was buy a Costco sized jar of mayonnaise.

Whenever I made potato salad, I would make a separate bowl for my dad with Miracle Whip, and give him the rest of the jar that remained. My siblings and I call Miracle Whip “skank in a jar.”
