Passed an old guy in town who needed a jump

three different groups of people offered to give him help

People CAN be awesome

This is Grandpa. He lied about his age to go fight Nazis, so only had an 8th grade education, but the Navy taught him electrical engineering. A firm hired him, treated him well, and was then taken over by people who cut his pay and demoted him due to his lack of an education. He retaliated by making the room sized million dollar computer he was designing for them so complicated only he could turn it on. It collected dust for years. Proud of him.

Me, excitedly browsing bird toys for "my kid".

Take a quick pause. A breath. A moment, and ask yourself:

Are you allowing yourself to be farmed for outrage today?

Then ask yourself: why? To what end? Who benefits from your fury?

Does it help you to achieve a goal?

If not, is there a more productive use of your time?

Last night I made a lovely pot roast with turnips, and I forgot to put it in the fridge before I went to bed. Been kicking myself all morning.

Shrews and sunflower seeds shiver at the sight of…Owl Man & Cardinal.

I made three stuffies of the grandkids' dogs. The first one was Marley the miniature dachshund. Second one was Lizzie the pitbull. This one is Opie with the real Opie.

Molasses cookies are so much better than ginger cookies, but they should both exist.

Okay, so, I have this recurrent dream about butt gliding. Like, not flying, but I sit on the floor and my mighty butt muscles propel me across the floor faster than walking, by clenching and unclenching faster than the eye can see. Winding linoleum halls I can take at super speeds are often involved. I can't seem to find this in the dream dictionaries. Suggestions?
