If there is an afterlife, I know mom's cheering for #BenShelton to end US men's 20+ year dry spell in grand slam #tennis today at the #usopen #usopen2026. Its the first US Open since she left us. Hey Mom, if you're listening, Ben could use some divine intervention right now.

You know who actually did show up at Ground Zero? Canadian emergency rescue crews.

Does the #cincyopen #CincinnatiOpen have the best trophies in #tennis? There is just something about the beautiful Rookwood pottery that is so unique and appealing. Keep your metal. Give me one of these any day.

Whew #xpncountdown is over so I can go back to avoiding Bsky. Thanks @wxpnfm.bsky.social, cant express what a welcome distraction it was when some pretty tough things were happening in my life. Happy New Year!
