The Bag Lady

Cellpic Sunday – Prehistoric Longnose Gar

This is an interview regarding a book in which the Speaker of the House writes a forward with derogatory depictions of Pete Buttigieg and his lifestyle. He even promoted it in a speech! Then he denies it. These politicians that constantly lie is another issue. It’s amazing to me that people supposedly working in the best interest of all US citizens spout this hate. How can we stop it? Why was this even published?😵‍💫😡

Here are this week’s questions:

1.  Did you wake up in a good mood this morning? I was woken up by texts from my daughter telling me to call the dentist…so not so much😀

2.  What was the first thing you thought of when you awoke? Who is calling me so early?

3.  Tea, coffee, or fruit juice/smoothie for breakfast?Nothing since I had to shower quickly and go to the dentist🙄😳

4.  What topping do you prefer on your toast?I like butter or jam or peanut butter.

Gratitude: I am grateful to have a daughter that is thinking of me and keeping me on my toes ☺️♥️

No Theme Thursday (03/14/24 – Updated)

Out from the sand and clay a pearly split rose of cactus flesh, a gem of shaded desert climes, spreads its beauty. A drifted group of these pretty plants is never scarce in a garden. Pick a leaf and place in a sandy soil page of your garden and watch it unveil and multiply.

(Route shown for California Redwoods)

It’s obvious to me

the word muirmap’s about those trees

Those big masterful ones you see

In Californeeyaaee😳🙄

Beautiful areas and to be specific

They’re in a state edged by the Pacific.

Redwood trees spoken of with admiration

By a Scot named John Muir and whose creation

Of a National Park system for us all

So redwoods and more would not fall.
