Buckle up for a roller coaster ride through the USAID budget process. To keep you reading, I will use memes.

Step 1.

Every year, the White House (via OMB) puts together a federal budget proposal to Congress. Every federal agency (incl USAID) sends OMB their budget wishlist.

Thanks for the guidance!

Okay, I need some recipes. I have about a dozen turnips from our farmshare and no idea what to do with them. I know they can be roasted, mashed, etc… How do you like to prepare them?

Outstanding. What a keepsake! 😍

Where can I get that “protest” shirt?

I'm open to connecting with anyone but particularly hoping to offer soul care for those who are forces for love and truth in our current social and political landscape. If waging peace is your work, and you're tired, I'd be honored to help support and refresh you! ❤️

If you're interested and available for at least 7 one-hour sessions between now & the end of April 2026, please send me an email ([email protected]) so we can connect and talk more. 💌

I suddenly want a cat named Tater

This Texan thanks you heartily.

good thing I like audiobooks ;-)

I adore the descriptions in the books ("like Timothy Spall gone to seed" is one of my favorites). The show is great but the books are simply OUTSTANDING.

The Homestar graphic gets you a free follow... great jorb

Library says I should have that one in about a month!

I really enjoyed @bschillace.brandyschillace.com’s mystery The Framed Women of Ardemore House.

Also, reading “clown show with tear gas” was a real lolsob moment 😆
