lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 06/08/2025Please take care! Catching it early is always the best way, so swallow those pills and heal fast! Good thoughts to you. 110
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 26/07/2025Went through that phase. Bought books. Did not start but when we remodeled home, put in concrete floor, smooth and painted, concrete countertops in kitchen and baths. Happy about it. 010
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 23/07/2025I cannot recall the last day that wasn’t a heat advisory day. Probably the day part of downtown flooded in ten inches of rain, losing us a Trader Joe, post office, Greek deli, bagel place, European bakery, coffee shop, plus other places. Trying to get away to mountains. 110
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 22/07/2025Finn sends a smile your way. It is too hot here in North Carolina but he hopes for a trip to the mountains. 110
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 18/05/2025I am fortunate that my mom left a really good banana bread recipe on an index card, in her handwriting.loads of pecans. 010
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 17/05/2025People all aflutter that Biden forgetful of names and names like many older folks. You know what he did not forget? Due process. 000

lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 03/05/2025Reddit has r/QAnonCasualties which supports people and the stories are heartbreaking. Many, many divorces, elderly relatives losing money to scams, etc. I have been reading it for years and sometimes people come out of it and report on what helped. 010
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 27/04/2025Snack formation! Did they eat your blanket yet, and do I need to make another? 000
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 23/04/2025Big congratulations and so deserved! I lived through the years of some of your podcasts so appreciate your telling those stories. 010
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 12/04/2025I could watch this all day. My Finn does the same, only in 60 pounds of Staffie body with maximum shedding and stepping on my liver. 080
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 12/04/2025That she ratted you out to your spouse, like some Stasi for the patriarchy, just burns my biscuits or something. I am at a loss for quaint regional expressions. 050
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 12/04/2025What the actual fluff does anyone get off thinking they can blab personal info heard in a doctor’s office? Go full Karen in reporting her to her boss. 130
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 08/04/2025Good wishes to you. I found turning 65 helped, having the security of Medicare( well, with paid supplement) was nice. Now at 73, I know I can find joy despite world events. 000
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 04/04/2025@profanity.accountant I think I am am tame here in the friendly skies. 100
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 16/03/2025Hope you feel better! I just spent over a month sick with flu. Not a good year for viruses, although maybe no year is anymore. 110
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 05/02/2025Not my work but very aspirational. Please claim if you made this, so I can bow humbly. 010
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 05/02/2025Meemaw made them when we were young’uns. 000
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 05/02/2025I am glad my parents died because I would be yelling at them every damn day. They were reliably on wrong side of history except for fighting Hitler. 000
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 04/02/2025Blackmail? She doesn’t even ring her hands first anymore. 000
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 02/02/2025Yeah I was in Ireland, nice people but they are so mad at us over Palestinians they are boycotting Coke, McDonalds, etc. I got side eye from a crochet teacher there for having a Diet Coke so switched to tonic water. 010
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 01/02/2025Reminds me of when Nixon tapes were released and we heard him wanting to blow up the Brookings Institute and then went back to listening to the Eagles. 010
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 01/02/2025I know this illegal purge of the FBI is terrible and chaotic, but I cannot help thinking that the spirit of Fred Hampton is having a good chuckle in the afterlife. 010
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 01/02/2025My son is 25 and says all politicians are bad except maybe Bernie Sanders, and if the world ends he is taking a CEO with him. And I am the leftie in my family. 010
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 29/01/2025My 25 year old son is completely cynical about all politicians, but he respects Bernie. Proud mom moment. 010

lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 01/01/2025The French were driven out of Nova Scotia around 1730 and went to Louisiana and so much intermarriage makes me fifth cousin to everyone. I also match a lot in Canada. Hard to tease out actual connections though with endogamy. 100
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 01/01/2025Different groups are spread by where they conquered. All my Scandinavian seems to come from British settlements of Vikings. 110
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 01/01/2025Spent eight hours at a wedding yesterday, gave up and did Irish exit before the cake. It was Chinese, started with tea ceremony and games for groom to prove he earned bride. Great traditions, just a long damn day. 000
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 01/01/2025My son had to go to urgent care for impacted ear wax. He has this hard kind that is genetic(adopted from China). So they flushed his ears and he texted “I can hear colors!”. Silly guy, but adorable. 010
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 01/01/2025Keeping fingers crossed for good results! If you have any French ancestry we might be kin. My one Cajun great grandmother makes me cousins with all of Louisiana! 110

lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 26/12/2024Finn got a stylish hoodie for Christmas. To our surprise, he really likes it and has not tried to eat it like he does blankets. 040
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 26/12/2024Cool! I got the usual socks and chocolates, but we had to get a new dryer. 110
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 25/12/2024I have an xray of my brain that I want to embroider. Turns out I have a squiggly line down the center instead of straight, just interesting. I am weird and this is proof. 020
lightningtree.bsky.social @lightningtree.bsky.social · 25/12/2024Your love story inspires us all! My Finn hopes to find love like that one day!best wishes from North Carolina! 3211
