Retired R.N. and one pissed off Democrat. “The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those that speak it.” -George Orwell
Sadly, this is so true. From Illinois Governor JB Printzker. Now we’re in back to school season where millions of children and young adults head back to school/college. We have a measles outbreak and covid is rising in all states. I’m afraid it’s going to be a rough fall.
Delaware becomes the 12 state to enact state level voting protection. For Meyer, the signing carried a warning about the need for civic vigilance: “Democracy doesn’t disappear overnight; it disappears when good people convince themselves someone else will protect it.”
As someone who loathes DST this makes me very happy. Daylight minutes lost in August. #PermanentStandardTime
My brick patio with a very unique design. You don’t find masonry like this anymore.
It’s not even 8:30 in the morning and it’s already 88°. Going to be another miserable day. Stay safe everyone out there in this heat wave 🥵
As an adult who’s had many MRI’s (spine) I can only imagine how scary it must be for a child. Kudos to Disney for making it less scary with this pediatric machine. Next can you come up with an adult version please 🙏.
A photographer captured this photo at the Congressional Picnic at the White House. Even toddlers know the man he’s looking at is evil.
So they’re working on tracking down people? JC what a mess! There should be NO DOUBT whatsoever where these people are.

Americans are running on empty and have been for quite awhile. While we all try to find peace in our own ways it’s always there, fear, uncertainty, anger and profound sadness because of Trump and his administration of criminals.
How very Christian of him on this Easter Sunday 😒. Trump posting foul mouthed threats to Iran this morning.
Early blooms on the Kobus Magnolia at Goodstay Gardens. Gorgeous spring day in Delaware.
The Winter Solstice occurs Sunday morning, at 10:03 AM ET (9:03 AM CT| 8:03 AM MT | 7:03 AM PT). This will be the day we get the least amount of daylight and the longest night. The Sun takes its lowest path across the sky and then after this, our daylight slowly starts coming back starting Monday! 🌤️
The first snow is always so beautiful and peaceful. “I am younger each year at the first snow.” -Anne Sexton
Maybe it’s just me but I’m so tired of Ralph Loren always designing our Olympic athletes. It’s so predictable, the same look year after year. Pic of the latest design for 2026 Winter Olympics.
Such a gorgeous autumn day here in Delaware. Football 🏈, a pot of soup on the stove later and walks with the pup makes for a pretty nice Sunday.
Congratulations to her. She is everything Trump isn’t. While she works hard to build a democracy in her country Trump does the exact opposite, tears ours apart and takes away our rights. She exudes joy and sincerity, Trump has neither.
Anyone else feeling like this? I am feeling tired, depressed and overwhelmed with how far our country has fallen in 9 months. And, with no end in sight or any signs things will get better, only continue this downward spiral.
