Just having a Wednesday snooze on my golden cloud. You can see a tiny bit of cloud down in the left corner… Mama stole this from Beachwalks, a brilliant blog that soothes the soul and challenges the mind. Love this in the morning to start the day with the sound of waves…. 😻😻😻😻😻 Yes, wordless Wednesday, but when Trump messes with THE DEPARTMENT...

  A long-ago photo of mama’s stepdaughter with Luna, a long ago kitty…. Well, the best spark we have come up with over many years of pondering this puzzle is this: When in doubt (worry, distress, uncertainty, bafflement, stress, sadness, and so on…), HUG!

Definitely NOT Sun Day

Posted by on Mar 9, 2025 | 24 comments

I am not a big fan of WET! I just kick back on my little red cloud and snooze away the weather below…today it is POURING. WET WET WET…. And then the sun pours forth and then the wind comes up and blows everything hither and yon and then it pours rain and then….let’s just say the weather is WEIRD. Isn’t there something to talk...

THANKS

Thanks that the address to Congress is OVER. Thanks to the Democratic rebuttal of Elissa Slotkin, Senator from Michigan, and Bernie Sanders to Trump’s address to Congress, which mentioned NO solutions to the many areas that Americans are distressed about: rising prices of groceries, inflated housing and car prices, need for affordable medical care...

Silence? Not Easy

Posted by on Mar 5, 2025 | 20 comments

That was an exhausting speech…. Well, now that the USA has broken relations with its closest allies and friends, stopped funds for education, medical research, science research, women’s rights, children’s vaccines against measles, polio and more, and in too many ways to mention here, set our country back to the middle ages, I will honor...

  This is just fun. This is not. But your medicaid and taxes and food stamps for needy families and household expenses are about to change in order to enhance billionaires already-obscene caches of money. We have criminals running our country. Mama can’t help herself but perhaps this information can help you. Today’s report is especially...

  Mama, maybe just shorten your expressions of concern, non? Okay, it’s okay, don’t read this blog. Read the fun, positive ramblings on my Substack instead or other uplifting blogs that help (even) me through the day, thank you, bloggers. But it is very hard for me to see our country abandon our allies around the world, abandon the brave...

  I guess our spark today is that when you find yourself worrying and stressed by what is going on right now in the world (!), one of the best ways to keep those feelings at bay for a brief moment is to do something that you love to do…sing, read, paint, putter, garden, hug your kitties(!), doggies, sheep, piggies, whatever you hug (hubby?...
