Hubby and i spent the afternoon cleaning up our flower beds. These are the last blooms of the season. We left the rest of the snapdragons to go to seed and dug up the dahlia roots to store over the winter. Still more to be done, but the season is winding down.

I've been considering switching from @tmobile to consumer cellular. I checked and, sure enough T-mobile is partnered with #Starlink. Tomorrow we make the switch. ElonMusk, you are a mass murderer! T-mobile is your accomplice.

BREAKING!! MAN TRIUMPHS OVER DUVET! I finally managed to insert the duvet in the cover, all by myself, using the inside out roll up method, thanks to a YouTube video. I wish we had some champagne 🍾

Number 7 on our #epiphyllumoxypetalum ! We actually had 6 last night, one of which I didn't discover until I clipped off the spent blooms this afternoon. There's still one more to come, making 8 for this flush, plus the one that bloomed a few weeks ago.

I've had this #epiphyllumoxipetalum for about 27 years, and it has never bloomed like this! Usually, one bloom a year is what she produces, and that didn't start until about 11 years ago. Tonight we have 5 out at once, with 2 more waiting a couple more days! The fragrance is amazing!

Hey Mike Johnson: Donald J Trump, the President of the United States, is a pedophile and child rapist. Is that disrespectful enough?

Context: Mike Johnson was once the dean of the Judge Paul Pressler School of Law. Paul Pressler was a pedophile. So Mike Johnson has some experience looking the other way around pedophiles. Glory!

We & the media are NOT talking enough about how a Florida grand jury found that $10 million was funneled from a settlement intended to benefit Florida taxpayers to Ron DeSantis’s wife’s illegitimate β€œcharity” (that never registered with the IRS), where it was laundered before it got to the FLA GOP.

Just short of 4 inches of rain here in Harrisburg last night. We were driving home from a friend's house in Mechanicsburg in such a downpour we could barely see the road.

Our night blooming Epiphyllum has put on its one night show! I wish the photos could convey the incredible perfume of this flower! #nightbloomingcereus #epiphyllumoxypetalum

We've now lost a second dear friend to #cancer. The first, a few months ago, was sudden. The second one, today, had been fighting it for over a decade, and we really hoped he would pull through. They we're both much too young for their lives to end! F**K CANCER!

The 6 largest oil companies will collectively rake in $45B in profits in the second quarter of 2026 β€” nearly double what they made in the first quarter. Meanwhile, Canada, France, and Spain are battling record-breaking wildfires spurred by the climate crisis. Big Oil profits while the world burns.

Julian and I had already been together 13 years when it finally became possible for us to be legally married on this day in 2013. Happy 13th wedding anniversary to the love of my life, the man who completes me and makes my life wonderful! I love you more now than ever! #marriage

Corrupt immoral coward Lindsey Graham has died after a sudden illness and history will remember him as an insurrectionist who did everything he could in public office to help a vile deranged treasonous felon commit election fraud and sedition against the United States.

Got our power back on in our Harrisburg neighborhood around 12:15 pm today. There are still about 61K PPL customers in central PA without power. You don't realize how spoiled we are until you go just 42 hours without electricity! #PowerOutage #SummerStorms
