Lexi & The Beast

"Treat your kids with so much love that if someone mistreats them they will know immediately." - Unknown

This guy already gave up on today and went back to bed.

The best part was that the kid wanted to learn, so I had him in my work room cutting pieces with a rotary cutter and using the BEAST™️ himself. He ended up leaving to play with the other kids after a seam or two, but that was fine bc the moms needed to talk and I needed to speed up the process.

Friend came over this afternoon so we could panic-sew a Halloween cape for her son. 2 hours from start to finish. Not my best work but he left smiling. 😂

Me and the regular group who like my posts.

Share who you think looked the hottest anyone has ever looked in a movie!

Sigh. I am having A DAY.

Omg, people!! I’m not trying to kink shame but we don’t need all of your weird fetishes out here in the open. The unsolicited kink content is out of control.

I have questions.

5K run at a 11:50’ish pace. As an old broad, I’m not mad at it.

I really want a faux fur coat in cheetah print.

Genetic testing. In my 20s I had a test done that cost several thousand dollars. (My parents’ insurance covered it.) It took almost 3 months to get results because the sample had to be analyzed by hand. Now it’s all automated. Results in a matter of days and it was about $100 at last check.

OhMyGod. No he didn’t.

Halloween nails!

I am Lexi, witch of the woods and the rest is history.

I want to scream this statistic everyday.

OMG. A friend just texted this story to me and... 😬 www.cbsnews.com/baltimore/ne...

What type of fabric are you imagining this in? There are no suggested fabrics included with the pattern. I have a friend who is an experienced gown maker and has volunteered to answer questions. I may try to toile this once the election is over.

It was the only room in the school with air conditioning!

I made these today and they are SO good. Used almond butter. Highly recommend. www.loveandlemons.com/no-bake-prot...

Ohmygosh. You guys. Look… 😳

📌 My people were from Abruzzo (in part). Must try!

Yesterday’s run. I had to cut it short, but I also went out canvassing later in the day so I managed to exceed my move goal. 12 days to go til Election Day! Let’s make them count!

Just checked my fastest half marathon time back in the day and I ran about 9:30 min/mile. Those were the days. Getting old sucks. 😂

Little cross training today.

U.S. intelligence agencies say the failed operation at Leipzig-Halle Airport was one of the opening shots in a stepped-up campaign of sabotage and covert action against NATO countries ordered directly by Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to European officials briefed on their findings.-WSJ

Share someone who looks stylish wearing a CAPE.

Yep. This is the reason I do the laundry in my house.

just asked my tailor if he disavows the muslin brotherhood

Drop some COMPUTERS 🖥️ 🖤💻

This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

I denounce people who block the aisle while trying to jam their not-quite-size-appropriate carry-ons into the overhead bin instead of checking them like a decent human being.

6 miles today!

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

It’s all fun and games when a quarter of US men believe they could win a fight with a chimpanzee but then you remember they also pretend to be experts in economics, public health, and AI while holding 80% of US federal appointments.

Sigh. Can’t sleep. I’m ruminating. Which I tend not to do anymore… except for tonight, it seems.

Rest day. Tomorrow I run 6 miles.

Seconded.

I need a psychologist/psychiatrist to explain what this public ogling is really about. What is going on here?

Slow but done. A mile is a mile.

For any friends headed to Bmore for the marathon this weekend, this looks like a super interesting post-marathon tour. One day I'm going to get down there to attend one of these.

Also, I've got a bridge I want to sell you.

Damn. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

The Trouble With Harry - It's a Hitchcock film. I know Hitchcock was a total dick but he was also brilliant and the film is a real delight. It's somewhat suspenseful. More of a comedy. I highly recommend giving it a chance.

Kind of killed it today. No biggie.

see a dinosaur, post a dinosaur 🦖

Wasn’t able to fit this one in yesterday.
