Here is “Quannapowitt Rag” by Mrs. Lillian Coolidge. My sidekick, Annabel Lee, helped me out. #DogsOfBlueSky

Dog sitting again on Annabel Lee’s beauty parlor day. I think Carly wanted a haircut too. #dogsofBlueSky
My doctor asked me if I knew the difference between Tamoxifen and Anastrozole. I immediately said, “(the latter) is for old people.” She replied, “we don’t say that,” with a bit of horror. Well, I’m officially on the old person medication. 😂
This brings back memories! We loved going to Hojo’s for our dinner and coconut birthday cake.
What a beautiful night to walk by our sweet #Lighthouse after a fabulous talk on the recovery of the #RevolutionaryWar period wreck from the evacuation of Charlestown! I love my little town.
I uploaded the Emmanuel College cheer for a relative heading off to Emmanuel in the fall. I thought I would give my BlueSky friends a little #laughoftheday Enjoy! #EmmanuelCollege #funny

April 19th is a significant & sad day in my family. On this day in 1955, my Dad’s grandfather, Sabino “Sam” died; in 1980, my maternal grandfather, Francis “Punghi” died; & in 2005, my DH grandmother,Jessie Mae died. Through the sadness, though, we see our interconnection & know we were meant to be.
8. Move on from your mistakes - don’t dwell on them. #advice #dailyadvice #frommom
7. Pause before speaking. I have embarrassed myself so many times with things I have just blurted out without thinking. #advice #dailyadvice #frommom

5. End each day with an out loud review of your day. #advice #dailyadvice #frommom
4. Never hold a grudge. Be like Papa. Papa’s Aunt sued our family. She had her husband dug up 7 years after he died because she didn’t want him to be with our family in the family plot. We all went to her 80th birthday party. #advice #dailyadvice #frommom
3. Send random letters to friends, family, and people you admire on a regular basis to let them know how you feel about them. #advice #dailyadvice #frommom
2. Try to go to bed and wake up at the same time each day. #Advice #DailyAdvice #FromMom
I’m filling in a “Dear Daughter” journal for my Angel. One question I have answered with 10 pieces of #advice. I thought I would share with BlueSky 1. Always wear clean underwear #dailyadvice
My neighbor asked if his baby could stay with us for the night. I don’t think his baby is going to want to go back. 💕🐶
I read Shiloh by Keith Michon @janusstone.bsky.social. It’s an adventure & a fun way to “meet” historic characters (Lincoln, Grant, Sybil Ludington, etc.). However, it is the fight of good versus evil and the hope for redemption that makes this novel a true treasure. Happy Reading!
My little puppy may be getting a little too big to be jumping into the stroller with her mom. 🐶
Hubby and I are on a date to see “Solo Mio” without our Angel (or anyone else). #foreverhoneymoon #love
The @dunkins.bsky.social #SuperBowlCommercial was the best one of the night! I agree that a genius wouldn’t put ice in the coffee. Old time Bostonians drink hot coffee all year. ☕️
