Writer. 🍀🌻 Being a redhead doesn't determine who is right; only who wins. Yet to be alone in the bathroom. I love my rugby son, his fiancée, my grandson, our dogs & 2 damn feisty cats. And …friends with good food.

This is a question I’m embarrassed to ask, having grown up in the LA area, but does Chicano/a/x refer primarily to people of Mexican heritage who have family history in what is *now* called the US (CA, NM, Texas, etc.) or does it include anyone of Mexican ancestry, e.g., first generation USians?

We can't find her. She doesn't have kids; her parents are gone. Her closest relative is a cousin in Chicago, but we don't have her information. I have called every hospital in a 150-mile radius. I have involved her landlady, whose emergency contact was an aunt who passed 5 years ago. This is insane.

My son happened to be the resident medic when my neighbor was brought to the ER this morning for a milder version of what happened to TC & was airlifted out to the same hospital as TC—same time of year. It's caught me off guard how triggering it is. This neighbor sat with me after my mom died. 💔

We have a Flock camera @ the end of our street. E’s daughter was pulled over after visiting us for non-current tags. She had an issue & paid online. She couldn't figure out how the officer knew her tag was missing since he was never behind her & came from the parking lot straight across, facing her.

On Sat eve, E went to bed at 8:30pm. She’d been up since 5:30am to fix problems at the hotel & ended up working all day. I’d taken a shower & put on my PJs & slippers. I was picking things up outside when our older, dressed-up male neighbor sauntered by at 8:30 on his way out for the evening. 🤨

Sadie is upset that it is cleaning day. The vacuum cleaner is a most unwelcome guest. She would feel immensely better if I’d just stop to play ball.
