Last time I marched, I taped paper from my printer to my umbrella, but for tomorrow’s NO KINGS demonstration, I stepped it up a bit.

Winston was the alpha among the litter of 4 found under my porch ~ 15 years ago. His 3 brothers have passed, and the toddler is a senior in high school. Winston is pictured more recently in the 2nd photo. As a kitten he persuaded one of my elderly male cats to be the mama. He's very persuasive.

One of the differences between my two dogs, who are littermates, aside from size, is that George is able to lift his ears up. Fred is not. The vet who will stop Fred’s suffering will be here soon. It is an enormous and terrible responsibility to end a beloved pet’s suffering. It will be over soon.

Grub Hub left a soggy bunch of food on my driveway from Jack-in-the-Box. I did not order this and neither the restaurant nor Grub Hub is taking responsibility. I will NEVER order through Grub Hub, and neither should you!

The In Memoriam section of the Academy Awards was horrible. Too busy by far. The multiple screens were difficult to follow and hard to read. The spotlight seemed to be on the singers and dancers, instead of on the folks who died during the last year. All kinds of wrong.

I am unsubscribing from ALL text notifications that sound threatening. Latest threat. I donate regularly to Democrats and other liberal causes. Just stop being so damn rude!

The banner photo is cropped strangely, and I will probably find another one - but since my dogs are cropped, I am posting the actual photo. This is George and his brother Fred. They are 10 years old.

My daughter sent me this image when I had COVID and got Paxlovid - a dragon with a potion to magically heal me.
