Cutting Medicare & Medicaid to fund Trump’s War for Israel? Just a reminder that Israel has universal healthcare, & we don’t- VOTE the Republicans out of EVERY elected office

#backyardwildlife Very hot & humid in Middle Tennessee today- these three showed up as soon as I put a fresh container of water in the shade- the water has been very popular this summer- birds, squirrels & even my neighbor’s cat

Two does & a fawn in a suburban backyard- one of the does is drinking water from a pan in the shade

#backyard-habitat #backyardwildlife Good evening from Middle Tennessee- hope you can find a spot to cool off & get some rest 💕

A doe & 3 fawns resting in the shade- the twins belong to her, & the 3rd fawn’s Mom is resting in a separate part of the yard- the temperature is 87 degrees F, but it’s so humid that it feels much hotter

#backyardwildlife Woke up in the night & realized I had not been invited to a party in the backyard 💕

A doe with 3 fawns grazing a suburban backyard at about 2 a.m. on 7/1/2026 - another doe is not pictured, so it’s one mom with twins & their buddy

A closer view of the three fawns described in the previous picture - a crape myrtle bush with watermelon-colored flowers is in the background

Why isn’t Bondi being required to testify under oath ? Is it because she cannot tell the truth without implicating Trump, & if she’s under oath & covers for him, then she’s lying to Congress and committing perjury ?

#backyardwildlife Was sound asleep last night when a weather alert on my phone woke me with a tornado warning- made my way to the kitchen & saw this doe riding out the storm in our backyard- my husband saw her get up & run away as it worsened- grateful that we’re okay- hope she is, too 💕

A female deer is resting on the ground as it storms all around her- the suburban yard is lit by floodlights, & the cellphone camera doesn’t adequately capture the falling rain 🌧️

I have a Coca Cola addiction- I try to shake it & will do so for a time- then I give in- I bought a 12-pack before Thanksgiving at my local Publix $9.99- a few days ago $11.49- that’s a price hike of almost 15%- WHY? Because they can! We are being gouged, & the Trump Administration does not care
