Let joy seep through the cracks of your imperfect life this holiday season. You deserve joy! I promise. ❤️ Poem by Harry Baker (VOLUME UP!) #dogs #joy #holidays #christmas #poetry

My favorite part of Obama’s CF comment is watching ridiculously wealthy, corrupt AF people who applaud the worst presidential corruption this country has ever seen pretending they eat at Cheesecake Factory & their faux outrage it insults the poor. The avg cost for 1 meal @ CF n the Midwest is $54.

I’m an immunosuppressed heart transplant recipient & any patient-facing health professional that doesn’t vaccinate isn’t actually a health “professional.”

So. Much. This. 🌈

An evening tea at Morwood Manor: the Suspicious Widow & the Glamorous Heiress, 2 women who definitely know more about the unfortunate incident in the Conservatory than they’re letting on. Any rumors that we poisoned the sugar cubes are completely unfounded. One lump or two? 🫖👻🖤 #Halloween #spooky

Ladies, let’s hope this goes without saying but is always worth reiterating: NEVER date, find yourself alone with, leave any beverage unattended with or allow your daughter to be alone with a man or boy who approves of Vivek’s ad.

Today, in #MyWildLife: Lovey awaits & follows me in the mornings to the bird-feeding platform, erected to keep #foxes like her from eating all the #bird food. But birds are messy eaters & she’s designated herself the clean up crew. 🤣 As always, #nature finds a way. #redfox #colorado #naturalist

An important follow-up question for Tommy: At what age were you first radicalized?

This is not a question, Dana. The cost of diesel IS high because of the Iran war. That is 100% factual. Your job is to record this idiot's response to the objective reality created by his party. "The cost of diesel is high mostly because of the Iran war R's support. What is your response to that?"

That shouldn't even be phrased as a question. It's a declarative statement. Dana, do a Journalism: "...at the pump. Those were your words. You've let Americans down. What is your message to them about that?" Why is this so difficult for journalists to do?

Can we all please make a pact to never buy a timeshare so that those Chuck McDowell commercials will go away FOREVER?

END YOUR HAUNTING! Research has shown that poltergeists are nothing more than adorable ghost cats who are easily mollified with a quick "pspspsps" whenever you enter the room. Follow me for more supernatural hacks this spooky season. 👻 #cats #poltergeists #spookyseason #halloween

Today, in #MyWildLife: Pigpen & Sally work around Lovey (#redfox) for their free breakfast. Why isn’t she attacking them in earnest? 🤔 Because she’s not a killing machine. She is an individual making choices around risk & reward. Just like you do, every day. #bird #birds #raven #nature

Today in #MyWildLife: The 1st time I saw a Spotted Towhee, he was barging across my driveway as if on his way to the House of Commons to thunder: “We shall fight them in the shrubbery!” And every Spotted Towhee has been Winston Churchill to me ever since. #spottedtowhee #bird #birds #churchill

Today in #MyWildLife: Early #Fall is an excellent time for self care on Nighthawk Hill. Just ask our Blue Jay friend. He’s passing through on his trek downslope & booked a spa day. #bird #birds #bluejay #nature #wildlife #colorado

Today, in #MyWildLife: Red Fox was on Dancing With the Stars last night. And it must’ve been a Fox Trot! 🦊 On the left is Lovey & on the right is likely her kit. This is play between 2 animals who know each other *very* well socially. 😍 #redfox #nature #animals #colorado #wildlife #foxes

I don’t want to alarm anyone but I think Fall threw up in my car a little bit. #fall #pumpkins #autumn

Today, in #MyWildlife: PJ was feeling very Max from “The Grinch” of herself this morning. #dog #dogs #blacklab #colorado

Today, in #MyWildLife: “And I think to myself: What a wonderful world.” Happy Wednesday from me & Tori! #dog #dogs #fall #leaves #nature #autumn

Health insurance has long occupied a bizarre place for the American Taxpayer: We are highly encouraged to buy it but to NEVER use it. How is paying for something you have yet to use fraud? My husband is on the ACA. He never uses it. It's in place for a catastrophe so we don't lose everything. 🙄😡

Today in #MyWildLife: It’s Fall on Nighthawk Hill. Cool, misty mornings are the perfect time for Pigpen & Sally, our bonded pair of #ravens, to engage in allopreening. This maintains physical health, strengthens bonds & releases stress. #bird #birds #nature #photography #colorado

I didn't want to make dinner tonight, so I told my husband that cooking would be a threat to national security. I took no questions. I suggest we all begin using that phrase everywhere we go to explain why we want to do or not do everything under the sun. Ridiculous. 🙄 #threattonationalsecurity

Today, in #MyWildLife: A quick hike out to Comet Rock, where a few years ago we sat and watched NEOWISE. Shhh… take a quick #MentalHealthMoment. #colorado #mountains #hiking

Today, in #MyWildlife: Being an Amateur #Naturalist is easy. No technical vest or $4k telephoto lens needed. Just: PJs, iPhone, curiosity, a willingness to get grubby, & zero shame. It helps to have a husband who secretly photographs your brand of crazy. Clearly. #photography #nature

Today, in Your Daily Thurston: Sir, you’re doing concealment wrong. #YourDailyThurston #fox #redfox #nature #photography #MyWildLife

Follow-up questions: 1) Name a past US election that *has* included a "plan for enforcement action at polling places." 2) What *actual* quantitative data suggests such a plan is necessary now? SHOW YOUR WORK. Federal policy must be based in reality.

When you’re an #Aussie, the first rule of Bark Club is that you *always* bark about Bark Club. #dog #dogs #australianshepherd #barkclub #coloradolife

Today, in #MyWildLife: Your Daily Thurston. The velvet rope Thurston has allowed me behind during our mornings together is the most beautiful VIP experience of my life. #YourDailyThurston #fox #redfox #photography #nature #vip

So the Iranians are “meddling” with the midterms by defending themselves in the war that Trump & Republicans began illegally. But *this* is totes okay. Got it. When I don’t receive this check, how will I know *it’s* the one I didn’t receive & not the DOGE or Tariff checks I also never received?

Today, in #MyWildLife: Welcome to The Turkey Vulture Spa! Here’s a gorgeous #vulture holding a horaltic pose in the morning sun. Why? It assists with thermoregulation after a cool night, dries feathers damp w/ morning dew & kills bacteria, parasites & mites. #bird #birds #nature #photography

Tori and I think dog days of summer are WAY better than they sound.

Today, in #MyWildLife: Have you ever considered an American Robin? It’s a bird almost anyone in N. America can identify, but do most people really *see* it? This beauty just landed & submitted its headshot for Wikipedia & Merlin consideration. #bird #birds #photograpjy #nature #robin

Today, in #MyWildLife: It was in the 40s last night on Nighthawk Hill and Thurston’s #Fallosophy is simple: Cool air. Warm sun. Zero agenda. #YourDailyThurston #redfox #fox #nature #photography #fall

Today, in #MyWildLife: Your Daily Thurston. “I am Thurston, hear me roar!” #redfox #fox #nature #photography

My husband’s name is Derek. He asked me if I had any opinions about his name before we met. I enthusiastically shared I liked the name so much at 8 yrs old that it’s what I named the dad of The Sunshine Family (hippie) doll set I had. We pulled up a photo of them & now we can’t stop laughing.

Today, in #MyWildLife: Your Daily Thurston. I love to catch him doing his lil #fox things & thinking his lil fox thoughts. He was watching the Steller's Jays jockeying for position in the tree next to the feeding platform, wondering what those noisy blue lunatics were on about. #redfox #nature

Today, in #MyWildlife: Your daily Thurston. Today’s pose & expression are reading both competent wild predator & mildly inconvenienced woodland gentleman who has been asked to hold for a photograph. Good day, sir. ❤️ #redfox #fox #nature #photography

Today, in #MyWildlife: I think of Thurston so often & can describe to you how incredible it feels to know a wild #redfox. But I wonder what it feels like inside of his #fox mind, to know me? Only Thurston knows & so far, he’s not talking. ❤️ #nature #photography #naturalist

Today, in #MyWildLife: Thurston poses, I swear. I love that he’s decided I’m so low risk that we can share the same space while still allowing him to remain a wild animal. Thank you for turning me into an amateur naturalist, my good sir. It’s made a huge difference in my life. 🥰 #redfox #fox

As seen on Santa Fe in Denver today at exactly the moment I needed to see it. Rest in Peace, Dolly. The world was a significantly better place with you in it.

Today, in #MyWildLife: Clean water + a camera magically turns ordinary ground into a window. This is a compilation of all of the 23 #mammals we've recorded on camera on Nighthawk Hill. It's amazing what goes on right under your nose at night! #amateurnaturalist #wildlife #nature #colorado

Today in #MyWildLife: We have a birdseed moth infestation on Nighthawk Hill & tonight The Boy discovered he can use our handheld vac to catch them. I’ve never seen another human more enthusiastic about using a vacuum.

Today, in #MyWildLife: I HAVE MADE FOOD! Nighthawk Hill has gone agrarian & these first little yellow squash beauties are almost ready to be harvested. My paternal grandmother loved tending to her vegetable garden— she’d be so proud! #gardening #vegetables

My God, I’m exhausted. All I did my ENTIRE life was play by the rules. Paid my bills, paid my taxes, obeyed the law, was a responsible, good citizen. My Golden Years are now being destroyed for a new Gilded Age for self-obsessed Nepo-baby mediocre white men who have never done any of that. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

When you spend an evening with #Beetlejuice & emerged only a lil possessed. 👻 Playing at the Denver Center for Performing Arts thru Sunday & laugh out loud funny— treat yourself to a fun show! (Thankfully Boebert was nowhere in the vicinity this time) #musicaltheatre #gno #friends

I was finally over my shock at constantly receiving mail selling me European River Cruises, marketed to people of a certain age, when *this* arrived. It’s a *WWII-specific* River Cruise all the way up the Seine to Normandy. I’m not old enough for this. I’m Gen X! Please make it stop. #GenX #oaf

Today, in #MyWildlife: Animals are my groove, but The Boy also got us into #plants by planting our 1st #vegetable & herb #garden. Mixed success thanks to chipmunks & crazy heat but WE HAVE SQUASH. I water these lovelies daily while visiting Thurston & feel like a proud 1st-time Mom! #gardening

Ladies, if your gyno is telling you HRT is too dangerous, educate them by sharing this documentary & any articles surrounding the controversial 2002 study still being incorrectly cited. If they still say no, find a new gyno who is up to date on current research.
