I feel like others probably have music they were introduced to by someone that was fleeting in their lives. Mine was Dar Williams (Mortal City) by Sarah, first year of college. I have no idea what happened to her, but I still listen to it often (now it is mommy music and iasked for by my kids).

Silent Auction ends today (Sunday the 18th) at 3:30. There are still some very good deals. (Even for those that don't have a pet.)

We noticed that the Alexandria Welfare League of Alexandria's fundraising auction still has some pretty good deals, including some summer camps in the area. Maybe since pawsintheparkva.com had to be cancelled again? Anyway, bid away: www.32auctions.com/AWLAPawsinth...

As a homeschooling family, no. Put that money into public schools. (Yes, I know families in this case might be able to use it for outside resources even if enrolled in public school, but we all know that is not how it is going to be used.)

Nearly all schoolchildren in at least 30 states (including Virginia) can apply for a new federal scholarship next year to help pay for private school, homeschooling and other educational expenses, according to regulations proposed Thursday by the Trump administration.

If only I had remembered better... I looked it up the other day when the Mayor mentioned it.

My Junior Girl Scout troop had great time at Ms. Moxie's Moon Shop yesterday. A factual, down to earth, fun explanation of anatomy and period options with hands on experience with absorbency! A lot of the adults learned too. Highly recommend!

Who cares about the workers whose bodies are destroyed because of the work they do....... They should push past the pain (not like they can afford healthcare anyway) and then die still working. Otherwise they are useless to our capitalist system.

Dr Oz: "I'll give you a number you'll never forget -- if we can get the average American to be so healthy, so with it, so vital that they just want to work a little longer, it's worth a trillion dollars to the US economy"

Apparently preschool is only for childcare, not education. And this list misses a huge number of schools (especially part time programs or those like Child and Family Network Centers).

Mitchells vs the Machines is great. If you haven't seen it, you should (Especially relevant to parents or teens, but it just plain good, even on the fourthish rewatch.)

I was carded for the first time today in eons.... I was stuck between odd feeling of, really? I'm old! And huh, I look young?!? She did not card @byronpeebles.com because he has a beard. (Reminds me of when my oldest kid's two genders were "beard" and "no beard" based on their lived experience.)

Is there a way to watch it at home? And does that include the fireworks? (I remember it from past years but I'm not seeing any mention now.) @alexandriavagov.bsky.social
