Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Shortly after meeting my husband, he asked what I’d like to do for my birthday. I told him I wanted to tag a rail car. We adopted hobo names and wrote our nicknames on an alley wall in sidewalk chalk instead. I’ve always found these fascinating to watch when stopped at a crossing. 050
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 04/09/2026My parents were born and raised in central Kentucky. We lived in Mississippi for 8 years - 1st - 8th grade for me. Then a few years in TN before moving to Louisville area when I was 16. I was a bit surprised, because I’ve changed how and what I say a lot, but “ya’ll and “roly poly” got me. 000
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 03/09/2026I’m only a few days away from the 8th anniversary of my mom’s surgery to remove the tumor in her brain. It was a great success, but she still died from it nine months later. This is so promising. Fuck yeah, Science! 031

Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Osti got up for the first time 5 minutes ago after early, early AM thunderstorms. I let her out, and it immediately started sprinkling. Before I got back to the door, it started thundering. She’s ensconced around the toilet again. Poor thing. 250
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 15/06/2026I’m 56. I’m unapologetically eating cake for breakfast every day this week. My beautiful friend Neve has been making me my favorite cake for my birthday since my mom died. Y’all, it is soooo good. Really hard to be in a bad mood when you start the day with cake. 🎂 190
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Who’s going to write the children’s book about the grief of losing your mother to prison after she murders your dad? Talk about complicated grief. 060
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 15/03/2026The old gal turns 11 today. We gave her a few fries to celebrate. She’s still perky and playful some minutes of each day. She’s only a bit of a diva, mostly about food. She’s such a nice combo of Hedy and Hux. Glad to celebrate her being in our life. Having a dog is better. #greyhounds 3161
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 30/01/2026Catherine O’Hara has been a radiant, witty and beautiful part of so many of my favorite joyful moments. Watching Schitt’s Creek. Moira brought me so much comfort when I was missing my mom, especially. This one is tough. Godspeed and farewell. Thank you for the joy, laughter and memories. 050
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 03/01/2026When your calling/business is death work/positivity and the world you live in has gone from apathetic disregard to full-court press of cruelty in order to make survival, much less joyful living, nearly impossible for most of us? I feel like a ghoul. And so helpless. Happy New Year, I guess. 020
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 15/12/2025🎶 My hollly tree brings all the birds to the yard. About 30 seconds after I stopped this video a bird in another tree gave a signal and at least 30 flew out and moved on. Maybe a warning about our neighborhood hawks or just time for them to move on to the next site of their progressive dinner. 030
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 03/12/2025This old girl. She doesn’t want to use the ramp in the snow. Her use of space is the number one reason I won’t put up a big tree this year. We are having to resort to pee pads in our dining room. But look how cute she is. #greyhounds 1261
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 28/11/2025Considering how I feel at the moment, there may be no decking of halls this year. I haven’t even found the oomph to put away the paltry few Halloween decorations I put out. But we have a tradition of making wreaths after Thanksgiving dinner, and I am happy with the result. 040
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 20/11/2025Maybe it’s because hubby’s been out of town, but the girl has been dragging things all over the house the past few days. Yesterday, it was one of my sweaters to her bed and today a blanket from her bed to the dining room. 180
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 13/11/2025The very first word of a social media biz post I made yesterday used the wrong “you’re.” I wanted to leave the country and change my name. Then these emails. I rly need to lrn 2 chil. 130
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 01/11/2025We always mess up our count but we gave away my personal stash of Jolly Ranchers to finish at 8 PM w/290. Neighbor counted 332. And they have a team of counters. So they’re probably right. 110
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 31/10/2025Doug’s annual tradition of intentionally misidentifying preschool superheroes has begun in earnest. And the niblet posing as the headless horseman and subtly moving to terrify the parents. 020
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 31/10/2025The scariest scene in my real life horror film is trying to stop my dog from eating whatever she just found in the yard at 1:30 am in the dark while it’s raining outside. Followed closely by insomnia before a busy day. What are some of yours? Hope your Halloween is only treats today! 020
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 10/10/2025She got mad because Doug left for a haircut, and these toys were on her bed. Then she went to lie down in another room anyway. 270
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 09/10/2025I suffered a loss early am, when I observed THRICE a mouse scuttling around and under my couch. The place I relax and often sleep. My comfortable safe space for Grantchester viewing and book reading and solitaire and tea drinking and meditation. + 130

Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 18/09/2025Do any of you Gen-X, non-denominational Christian peeps remember your parents/teachers telling us not to buy P & G and Crest because of Moonie symbols on the packaging? And Moonies equaled satanism, I guess? 020

Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 18/09/2025Seven years ago today my mother had surgery for a brain tumor. A week later we, unknowingly, celebrated her last birthday with us. Add all this inhumane cruelty and greed that is public policy and I wonder if I’ve experienced my last “good day.” I won’t give in to hopelessness forever, but today? 020

Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 17/09/2025At least two upcoming prayer and candlelight vigils honoring CK are scheduled in my MAGA-infested corner of the planet. I hate it here. Encouraged to learn two cousins walked out of their church Sunday instead of consenting to listen to the man be eulogized from the pulpit, though. 000
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 16/09/2025I’m doing some research about women’s legacies for a writing circle I’m starting next year. Y’all, Mary Shelley doesn’t get talked about enough. I knew enough about her to want to learn more. And I’m a bit obsessed at the moment. Tell me your favorite feminist ideal from a woman in history. 010
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 11/09/2025There are too many gun deaths in this country. Everywhere. Everyday. Political violence and murder are unacceptable. Every time. Everywhere. Volence in any form is abhorrent. Everywhere. Always. 110
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 29/07/2025That thing when after several hours of uninterrupted work you have to make sure the dog, that normally interrupts you dozens of times a day, is still breathing. She was. I think the storm last night broke her. 080
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 22/07/2025I started playing Spiritfarer again last weekend. Wanna see a beautiful look into the life of a death doula or hospice worker? This is it. It’s cathartic. If you’re grieving, it may bring up memories and sadness. I’ve cried a few times already, but it’s such a healing journey. 020
Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 09/07/2025Our local county council voted to end recycling last night despite petitions and a packed house in support. This preacher can endorse murder and our the illegitimate leader of the regime with no legal redress. I’m working so hard to build community, but in this hell state it is hard. Hate it here. 020

Michelle @seussyque.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Y’all I had to empty my garage today. I took many breaks and drank so much water.

I may not leave my house until October. 010
