FUTUENDI GRATIA

@bradleyforco 🙏 🤲

Prayer warriors please cover us in your prayers specifically at 9am this morning. We received some difficult test results this week and we have further testing this morning 💜💜. This is not about Cole but I need to keep it private for now.

@kellywellread Thinking of you. xoxo

Stopped by the library yesterday, where I've worked for over a decade, to take care of some admin things and say goodbye to friends and co-workers. The years I spent there, from age 50 to 61, were simply the best. I may be retiring, but I'll always be a librarian. 📚

@Supermansings Indeed she is

Who has the cutest wife? This guy.

@kellywellread You are loved

A lot has changed in just the last 3 to 4 weeks & I'm trying to process it all and still function. I have a number of decisions to make, but the pull of escaping into comfort reads (audiobooks) & mindless activities is strong. Grateful to have people who ❤️ me. I will be ok.

I’m an introvert. I honestly look forward to the weekend just so I can stay home again. I’ll be in my comfy clothes, wrapped up in cozy blankets, watching TV, eating my favorite snacks, and enjoying the peace and quiet

6 ways to have a good weekend: 1. Drink coffee. 2. Avoid people. 3. Read books. Go for a walk. 4. Drink more coffee. 5. Keep avoiding people. 6. Read more books. Go for a walk.

Is this post by DJT the thing that wakes people up? I keep thinking that surely this is it and then another horrible, no-good thing happens. #DJT #enough

Introverts only spend time with people they truly trust and feel safe around. That’s why their circle of friends is so small

@kellywellread Thinking of you. Life can be so difficult.

I just resigned as a substitute librarian, as I can no longer be away from home for the 4-5 hour shifts the library needs. Am sad. I'll always be a librarian in my heart, though.

@Lisa_See I can't wait!

Introverts live a very private life. Away. Alone. Observing. Thinking. Learning. They’re never bored alone. But people bore them. Drain them. The small talk, the drama, the masks. It's just too much noise. Too many expectations. Too much blabber with no meaning. That’s why they step away. To breathe. To feel. To reset. To reconnect with themselves. All alone.

Why do people act like fun only counts if it’s parties, trips, or busy plans? I can stay in bed with snacks, binge random shows, scroll through playlists, stare at the ceiling for hours, and still feel like I’m living my best life

When you demonize and mistreat the immigrant, the poor, and the marginalized, I'm not interested in hearing about your religious beliefs. You've already shown me what they are by how you're demonizing and mistreating the immigrant, the poor, and the marginalized.
