Today in history: In 1957, the music and dance show “American Bandstand,” hosted by Dick Clark, made its national network debut, beginning a 30-year run on ABC-TV.
Get ready to rebuild from the ground up once they’re gone. Hazmat team, prepare.
This is a new view of the bulldozed White House complex. The criminal monstrosity subhuman filth won’t stop until he destroys everything, makes me sick to my stomach.
If they hated pedophiles as much as they hate scientists, none of this would be happening.
A new Senate investigation says JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank and Bank of America processed massive sums tied to Jeffrey Epstein despite glaring red flags. Powerful institutions helped keep his operation running and every one of them must be held accountable. Follow the money, release everything.
Happy birthday to an actual President, Barack Obama. 💙
Took one extra day off after vacay to do some back to school shopping with my college girl. Look out stores of Chicago. Incoming!
I’m getting sick of the people we know who ask us why we wanted to get married ‘at our stage in life’. “You’re not having more kids at your ages”, they say. I respect that marriage isn’t for everyone, and it’s a choice. But ‘having kids’ as the criteria seems very Republican of them. Just saying.
Back in the states. We felt it yesterday when we were about to land and a woman behind us asked her seatmate if they were on the right side of the plane to see Mount Rainier … in Chicago. These people vote.

Protecting the home while we were gone must’ve been exhausting 🥰😂
Looking at cars for my recent grad (and new teacher 🥰) daughter. It doesn’t have to be brand new. Just reliable and fun. Honda Civics seem to have upheld their reputation since the days I drove one in my own early teaching days.
Thinking about autoimmune disease this morning, as I made my routine appointment with my endocrinologist. My diagnosis was in 2023 and successful treatment followed. But it’s not always so smooth. This is one of the best articles I’ve found on the topic. www.prevention.com/health/healt...

Somebody’s lying again….. Iran said on Monday there were no talks under way with the United States and no plans for any meetings, contradicting U.S. President Donald Trump who had cited talks he said would take place Monday afternoon as justification for calling off attacks.
My dad used to remind me that ‘some comments aren’t deserving of a response’. His tolerance for stupidity was equal to mine. Looks like a good day to take his advice and run with it.
Unfortunately a new week begins without that one big announcement. Alas, the champagne will have to wait another day …
Home sweet home. Chicago at 69° currently, which feels like fall compared to the scorching temps we left in Ajaccio. At least the frigid air will help us stay awake while we adjust to reality. 🌴⛄️
