💙 Walter Koenig Nichelle yelled at him in the group photo to make the Vulcan hands. He was struggling a bit I think from arthritis. Glad I met them.

The skeletons are walking tall! I think this is a tight rope Walker, but I am not entirely sure. The skeletons are definitely holding a net for the adventurous walker.

Are you a fan of gymnastics? The skeletons are! Lots of fun events - pommel horse, trampoline, bars, floor routines, and even scores from the judges!

The skeletons have been practicing their human pyramid. Only one lost head in the ground!

Autumn vibes! Love how cute this display is with the skellys looking through the corn stalks.

Time to sweat! The skeletons are working out hard today at the neighbor’s. Doing yoga, lifting weights, and using tension to build those muscles. Might take a lot since these guys are all bones.

A strong west wind is blowing. The neighbors knew it was going to be a windy weekend, so the skellys are appropriately trying to hang on!

I’m outraged by this attack on Representative Omar. Trump and his DOJ have a bizarre obsession with tearing down Minnesota, our leaders and our communities. This latest action, even as voting has already started in Minnesota, is a transparent attempt to interfere in our elections.

I don’t know if this display was because we live near a soccer park, if they were inspired by the World Cup this year, or if they set it up the same day as the Trd Lasso season 4 finale, but enjoy a Skelly Football/soccer game. With the giant ref holding a yellow card.

“"Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio” A bit of Shakespeare in the park at the local skelly display today.

Keeschka is such a sweet kitty. He has been cuddling on my lap a lot lately and he likes to reach out and hold my hand. Tumble has even learned from him about how to hold my hand. I am so lucky.

I am going to try and stay atop of these pictures this year. A few doors down, my neighbors decorate their yard with skeletons - not every day, but many days of October. They started with a spooky playground!

My beautiful purr baby has to get his annual shots and his arthritis shot today. He cried the whole way in the car. But he turns on the purrs inside-trying to show what a good kitty he is so they don’t poke him!

He let me hold him for awhile until the doctor came in. I was covered in cat hair. He is 15 now. And has a little heart murmur. So we have some tests pending just to keep an eye out. He might need a tooth pulled too.

I checked in on Tumble while we were gone. He did not relax. He was upset when I was getting Keeschka ready and he spent the time watching the window and the door waiting for his big brother to come home.

Dear leopards: chew faster

latest in a long running series of Republicans discovering that Republican policy preferences are bad when they’re applied to their loved ones

This raccoon has been hanging around the neighborhood. I feel like it is honoring Fat Bear week. It seems late in the season for it to be pregnant. I am not sure if it is just well fed. I think it is cute. 😂

Tumble is curled up in a ball on my lap and he is deep asleep, twitching a little. I love watching his eyes and ears twitch and hope he is having happy dreams. I am loving the warmth he has. Such a sweet, comforting moment.

I just saw a quote, “if you learned about heartbreak from Taylor Swift and not Alanis Morrisette, we are not the same.” And it kind of hits. Seeing the clips of Alanis with Brandi Carlisle this week are awesome. She really is my generation’s Janis. Pure, raw emotion.

Heard it was Star Trek Day! I have been lucky to meet a few of the OG and one TNG cast members. The picture with Nichelle Nichols from Wizard World is still my go to example why CE cons are worth it just for Chris Schmelke’s care and talent. Both George and Nichelle comments me on my hair.

An epic new series of #Taskmaster starts tonight at 9pm on Channel 4 and around the world on YouTube at 10pm.

Going to a house warming party tonight for my dad’s new neighbors. Made a quick welcome to the neighborhood card. I need to make and send more cards. Probably will soon!!

I saw Senator Tina Smith at the MPR booth and then was a few people behind her in line for a Pork Chop on a stick! Made eye contact and a big smile. Wish we had seen Peggy too!

The Giant Slide is better with friends:

Today’s project is to level out some dips in my backyard, so Tumble has an even lawn to run across. Went to the store and bought some many bags of sand, pea gravel, and soil. Going to be a busy afternoon.

I must have an orb weaver spider living on the side of the house. I know this isn’t the best picture-I was trying to get it to show up without disturbing it and the sun was in a bad place. But this web is huge!

While I agree that this is good and change is coming, aren’t all of these spots currently filled by Democrats?

Democrats@democrats.org

NEW: Democrats overwhelmingly outvoted Republicans in several key primaries last night: –Wisconsin governor: 🔵 +301k –Minnesota U.S. Senate: 🔵 +291k –Minnesota governor: 🔵 +272k Change is coming.

I’m honored to have won the DFL primary and to keep fighting for Minnesotans as Attorney General. I’ve taken on Big Pharma, landlords who cheat their tenants, and the Trump admin when it attacks our state. The work continues. Minnesota needs a fighter in its corner, and I’m ready to keep fighting.

Outside with Tumble last night and hit with the fact he looks so happy. He has a lot of fun and is a sweet boy. I am thankful I found him and can give him a home where he is loved and cared for and allowed to be a sweet boy. I hate that he spent early days in a bad place. Happy he has a home now.

I am watching a package I ordered and the delivery shows it starting in OH, going to KS, arriving in MN, then back to KS, and now MO. Hoping it actually makes it back to MN soon. 😂

This is the epic side eye I got from Tumble and Keeschka when they heard I was watching other pets. #FeelingJudged

When I say my dog is called Mr. Meltdown, this is why. He does this multiple times a day while I work because he thinks it should be break time/play time.

Happy Birthday to my Tooty Booty, Mr. Gorgeous, Gooberhead, Tumble Bumble, Mr. Meltdown, Sweetheart, and a talented frisbee catcher. 4 years old! A Golden birthday for a Golden Eyed boy!

Haven’t posted a picture of Tumble in his grandpa’s lap in a bit. His eyebrows are getting so long and unruly! I feel like they might get long enough to touch under his chin though! Scruffy face. #tumble26

Oops. Falling behind on Tumble pictures and videos. He spotted a new space for a hole in the yard. But I also love how he uses his feet to pick up his frisbee. #tumble26
