Have decided it's quite a story for my Grands. Learned a lot. Yay for having location on my phone. Called 911, said a guy would be in parking lot to say where I was. 911 man said they knew exact location. Then, I heard sirens. Ride out of woods, like a deer on ATV, whoa. Over rocks, etc. Great care.

#2 So, detached leg from hip. Very much OUCH! 01/02 surgery. Rehab for a bit. Then home with walker. Then a cane. And, glad to report..shocking to doctors, by 03/21, I did a St. Patrick's 5k. Not running but in 55 minutes with no cane. Still, I needed positive brain stuff. DC/WH too disgusting.

Have been taking a "political" break. So, so sick of nothing at all being done. Sorry, DEMS..just too much talk. Someone please invoke the 25th. In the meantime on New Year's Eve morning. On a hike. I stepped on sneaky black ice covered by leaves. Fell. Broke my femur. Brought out of woods on ATV!

Thank you..As I hobbled around and bragged to a friend that I took a shower..I got so upset..music would help..Then, the S&G song..I was taken back to a time when I felt we could fix anything..you know, innocence. And, the lump in the throat and the tears flowed. Thank you again. ♥️

Today, this song and...it made me cry. Yes, I am recovering from breaking my femur on a hike 12/31. Surgery on 01/02..rehab. Now home in a snow storm. Walking to TV news. Overwhelming. Lies. So, music. S&G I cried. We've lost America. Can we ever find America? www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eo2Z...

Forget the nuclear football..who is in charge of crybaby, sore loser's diaper bag? Probably T logo in faux gold. Carries his sippy cup, extra diapers, his "trophies" for being a winner, his uppers, a big Mac, KFC and diet Cokes.

I didn't notice anything "tented"..anyone else see protocol for asbestos removal? But, I was thinking that all those guidelines are on his Environmental safety rules chopping block!! And, hasn't he said that all these rules hinder development?

I hadn't thought about it but calling 911 and hearing, We know where you are..was very comforting. Tomorrow...rehab!

Sneaky devil black ice under leaves and tiny amount of snow mixed in. I actually fell up the hill, so I guess like a dive.

#2 Fast hard fall. Pete said, I'll pick you up..I said, "NO" I can tell I'm really hurt." I said I'm call 911..go to the parking lot and tell them where I am. 911 guy told me he could see my location. Heard the sirens. By then, shaking wildly..laying in snow, ice. Then, an ATV came. Put on a board.

So, you might know I walk a lot. Gorgeous morning 12/31. Friend called asked if I wanted to walk Bro and his dogs at wonderful old past farm by water. I wanted 217 miles for Dec and said only need 1.24 miles. I'm sharing my tracker. I had already done the early walk. Then, on a trail, I fell!

I don't know why I didn't watch West Wing when it was on..Might have been busy, job, daughter, husband..life. But, now, I loved it..funny that they discussed get rid of the penny in 1999! But, the sets made me sad. First news I saw was DT, Mar A Lago, Ukraine. Turned it off. My head in the sand?

Patty66.bsky.social @patty66.bsky.social · 31/12/2025
I've gone quiet also. No news..what would be new? "HE" did something terrible but no consequence. Yes, I watched all 7 seasons of West Wing! IK a show and missed the real look of the WH. I thought,DT doesn't know history, geography, etc.Who IS the U.S. leader? DT doesn't read.Morning briefings? WHO?

I just have a cell. I also review #s and if they leave a message I'll listen but then block & delete if it's nothing I care about..say, siding for a place I don't own. As for the night, I plug the phone into a charger so the phone is on the nightstand.

Were tangerines supposedly special? Not an orange which we would have anytime. Our little town had a movie in our theater and Santa came. I remember getting an orange there and a "golden book". I think he was the Post Master in really life.

I remember getting a tangerine, walnuts and, of course candy. But also, a candy cane that hung on the stocking. Oh, and the stockings were like high knee socks. Then, the store bought kind which heal quite a bit more.

Feeling the love of memories and the need to say, "Enjoy it all." Cliche'..it goes by. Today, gathering with 2 of my kids able to get AARP & families. (3rd only 34) but one grand 23! I had her Uncle when I was 23! And, of course, I remember it all..but, I don't remember how I got to be 77😂.

Today, Christmas this afternoon.Follow up picture was 7 years later.70th BDay surprise.Those rowdy kids were expected to be elegant.Then, I felt like a Queen at head of the table.I also thought other diners must have been nervous when they saw 7 kids walk in.Now, 7 years later, 77 ❤️🎄

Christmas, 13 years ago. The suggestion "Hey, let's get a picture with Mom/Nanny with the kids." Didn't turn out quite like a picture with The Queen. Should I have jumped over the back of the couch? Now, 4 are 20-23, 1-15,2-13..me? Ugh. 77. All taller than I.

Merry Christmas morning. At 6:30 am, I saw an "After Christmas" Sale ad (Macys) on TV. A bit like, well now, that's done, et's get selling.The cove this morning, tides out, sun moving along. I hope your day is peaceful and if not, I hope it's good, loving, joyous chaos. Thank you for your friendship

Drumpf always leads in with, "failing", "loser"..you know all his adjectives to set his picture of prey. That's how we all should know he's jealous, full of hate, seeking revenge for others telling the truth, knowing that his baby boy feelings have been hurt and he'll make you pay..poopie head.
