A pun to both groan and laugh at.

Full disclosure I stole it from someone else: "Yes,a paper plane can fly, but remain stationery at the same time." 🤣

Now that Cornyn is flipping on the fillibuster

will Thune surrender to tsf too, to try and get the horrific "save act" passed?

Competition Shows

In competition shows like the ones on the Food Network don't you think it's completely ridiculous when a contestant says, "I came here to win?" Who goes into a competition wanting to lose? 🤷‍♀️

Paw Prints on My Soul.

One of my cousins just sent me this. It made me cry because two of the Sheperds look just like my Queenie and my Marnie who crosses the Rainbow Bridge. Queenie in 1985 and Marnie in 1991.

Today I turned 64.

This song was the first thing that popped into my head this morning.

At least no one asked me today, if I play the #2 a lot in lotto as my birthday is 2-22-1962. I used to, but I gave up trying. 🤣

"Sometimes I feel old."

"Then I remember my sister is older." Saw this on a T shirt. It's fitting for today since it's my sister's birthday! She is 68 today.

Happy Birthday to her. Yes she's a though not a DU Member

Thank you for my hearts.

They have warmed me through this cold winter.

The Gray House

I apologize because this is on Amazon Prime and I know Amazon is bad because of their support for the tsf. I have been waiting to see this movie for awhile though because it's about history and because my favorite actor Colin O'Donoghue is in it. It's about the Civil War and women who spied on the Confederacy for the Union. It was produced by Morgan Freeman and Kevin Costner. I believe it premieres February 27, and am going to watch as a belated birthday present to myself. My birthday is 2/22. I have really missed Colin on screen. He's Irish and I don't know, if he will be filming anything in the U.S. again at least for awhile as I know many foreign actors don't want to come here anymore and I don't blame them.
