Chicken tender & midtown Omaha gossip. Social worker & therapist. I knit & watch the Dodgers 💙
6/6 didn't know she was sharing her life with us. All she had to do was be her authentic self to amaze and inspire us all 💙🦅💙 Fly free, friend.
5/6 Jackie and Shadow Show, in part bc they were so well balanced. I have a feeling that Jackie was not well for a while, but true to her nature, she raised her last two eagles, Luna and Sunny, who fledged shortly before she was hospitalized. I will be forever grateful to Jackie, even though she
4/6 encouraged her eaglets' sauciness, rewarding ferocity in the nest as it would be rewarded in the wild world outside. She suffered their squees and nips w the patience of Job. She never sweated the small stuff. Indeed, there has never been a better candidate for a weekly sitcom than the
3/6 w the eaglets at the bobblehead stage, Jackie was the backbone. She never let Shadow sit on the eggs or chicks during storms bc she knew the stuff she was made of. She put up with Shadow's ridiculous sticks & fussy nestorations bc she knew she would just rearrange when he was fishing. She
2/6 Mr. B to pick Shadow, who was a better match for her strong personality. Shadow was the perfect goofy, nurturing dad & provider to balance Jackie's stoicism. While Shadow was a softy, always the last to give up sitting on infertile eggs, the most worried about the eaglets,& in some ways, better
Our Jackie has died. My heart is broken. I haven't cried this much for some of my chickens who have died! I loved her so much. And I don't want her to be reduced to, "She was a great mom." She was a great eagle, a great spirit. She was so strong. For one, she flaunted eagle norms & divorced 1/6
This mangy tailed fool thinks I want his nut. He'd yell at me all day if I just stood here. He thinks he's hot shit bc his black squirrel wife 2 trees down is beautiful.
Beautiful night for a softball game. My husband's team won the Senior League Championship! 🏆
No- our Maha came first 🙃 it's a nonprofit music festival in Omaha since 2009
Therapists & social workers! I am outraged. I know I am screaming into the abyss here but I just did a ceu training on ethical documentation in which the demonstrated standard held by insurance companies is so high that documenting a session would probably take longer than this session itself.
My mom has Alzheimer's and is very sensory oriented and loves soft things so I crocheted her this cat pillow. She named him Monsieur Blanc (she was a high school French teacher.)
Charley Crockett in angelic white bc he don't do business with the devil 😈
I tried a drive-by of the Pacific street sinkhole on my way home, but was denied ❌️
Gah I love knives! You reminded me that I was going to order this one when I got paid
One of my favorite developments in the past week has been the absolute dominance of Lincoln, Nebraska in my FB group, Death Stairs. When I was at UNL, living in the Near South neighborhood, I got used to these set ups, but they are nuts & it's time that they got natl attention. Link below A few ex:
Dolly and I are rooting for Rachel Dratch on Celebrity Jeopardy. Dolly is having a spa day with epsom salts for an infection in her foot.
If you ever doubt that we are all connected, remember this story: My mom, who lives in memory care, had no idea that my dad was sick at home this week, no one told her bc it would worry her. I had a bad feeling about my dad's temp the evening of the 23rd, but he wouldn't go to the hospital.
I could walk into Hyvee and you wouldn't even know I had a chicken in my bog bag
⚠️Another day, another sinkhole in Omaha 🕳 This one reveals the secret tunnel that the former tenant, Brothers Lounge, used to get to the Underworld. ☠️
🪿🪿🪿🪿 At this point they need to shut down Regency Parkway or have crossing guards. Too many Canada Geese families out promenading with their families! I saw 3 families within 5 minutes, all near the road.
