I forgot I had this account. I am mostly on Threads and Mastodon now. My handle on Threads is rhinestone_squirrel. My handle on Mastodon is @[email protected]. I will probably update this account to some form of "rhinestone squirrel," too. I am completely off of the artist formerly known as Twitter. Ol' Muskie-Poo isn't going to get the benefit of my "engagement" on his Nazi site. Cheers! I'll try to be more active here.

Sitting around watching TV, off to bed soon; Gabapentin is more like a sleeping pill than for pain, to me; ugh

Untitled ; one of my '5 minute poems' I do when thinking too hard & bored & just gotta throw thoughts on paper🤔(cellphone notes actually, because, technology 😜)

inspired by @Lingitta ; ya got me thinking ❤️

Seeing terrified young kids jumping out of windows because, gunman, UPSET me & reminded me of 9-11 & my cousin shot dead this year.To be so fearful for life that ya gotta jump or run to have a chance to live, is just not right. I pray these students will mend emotionally from this. I pray the Professor's family heals as well.
Hoping none here had kids there!? My Uncle retired as a🏈 team cook. He ❤️that school.

We're TIRED of shootings; we lost fam to gun violence (his Grand, my cuz) this year

When I went to have my eye lasered this morning, I noticed a sign reading DANGER in bright red letters on the door to the room with the laser in it. Presumably this is to supply the element of madcap risk-taking we all want when we go in for eye surgery.

Good Morning All!
Wanna say what's really on my mind, but it's just too early. Coffee first,  thoughts later☕

Sipping coffee is such a positive morning experience; Hubs almost  always has a fresh pot on when I awaken. Just the smell of it starts my day right mmm

If ya don't drink it, have your morning 'whatever makes ya happy'; juice, breakfast, a morning jog, a convo w/loved ones, watching the sun rise, or just breathe in the air. Be grateful


Grateful

Did you waste the day, or lose it, was it well or sorely spent?
Did you leave a trail of kindness or a scar of discontent?
As you close your eyes in slumber do you think that God would say,
You have earned one more tomorrow by the work you did today?

Were you selfish pure and simple as you rushed along the way,
Or is someone mighty grateful for a deed you did today?

Can you say tonight, in parting with the day that's slipping fast,
That you helped a single brother of the many that you passed?
Is a single heart rejoicing over what you did or said;
Does a man whose hopes were fading now with courage look ahead?

Have You Earned Your Tomorrow
Edgar A. Guest

Is anybody happier because you passed his way?
Does anyone remember that you spoke to him today?
This day is almost over, and its toiling time is through;
Is there anyone to utter now a kindly word of you?

Did you give a cheerful greeting to the friend who came along?
Or a churlish sort of "Howdy" and then vanish in the throng?

I don't think I'll ever understand the people on social media that are terminally angry. Everyone needs to blow off steam a little now and again,it's beneficial to mental health,I do it,most people do it.But to be in a constant state of rage and defence,it that's all your about,that's not healthy.

I'm scheduled for some major medical testing this afternoon that may define the remainder of my life. If anyone has any positive energy to spare, please send it in my direction. I'm basically scared shitless.....

I'm not a hacker.

I'm a hunter. I hunt evil people online.

I don't do this because I enjoy it. I do this because it must be done.

I've been hunting for decades. Day after day relentlessly hunting. I never stop and only very rarely take breaks.

Do not tell me that I don't do enough. Do not tell me that I don't understand those who I hunt or their target victims.

Just don't.

Ugh! The darn tree ate my pole saw chain! Gotta fix it again. My small saw needs tightening. I'll fix them both tomorrow. Got most of it limbed & brush put at curb, but the main limb still hanging at top. Just one more lil cut & it'll fall.

I have zero business cutting trees down; I know my Dr definitely wouldn't approve. Hubs doesn't either, but he knows I'm stubborn & will sneak & do stuff.

Gonna rain in a bit; hope the wind & weight of water will push it down.

Munching on Hershey's ahh

Ok, so am I nuts or is $90 a month way too much for just home Internet (no cable)?

Reflecting back on the last 15 years or so that I've been Vegan one of the aspects I did not expect was how much things have faded in my memory.

I only remember elements of what things tasted like. I know memories fade as one gets older, but eating is so fundamental I wasn't expecting that.

Got into an argument the other day. No matter what I said I was yelled at & spoken over. I was told I wasn't as smart, that he knew more than I. The quite loud & lengthy argument finally got a reaction from a bystander; "Just ignore him. He does this at home"

Was babysitting my Grandsons, 4 & 6yrs; the 4 yr old was the one I argued with lol

We were arguing about Black Holes. He actually won the debate; I later🔎 facts; he was right!

Never argue with a Pre-K who watches science YouTube🙃
