I’ve been divorced for over 20 yrs. My youngest moved out 12 yrs ago, and I’ve been living by myself since. A few relationships, but no one I’d wanna share my home with. Why is it considered so pitiful to be single? I payed off my home! By myself!
I’m an immigrant. I came here in 1984 with a suitcase and $500. I feel like I’m more informed about politics than many of my American friends. How is that possible? Get out of your freakin bubble and care! Get informed! Knowledge IS power! Vote!
I’ve never watched the ESPYs. But this beautiful video about the Invictus games, and Prince Harry’s speech, even including Pat Tillman’s mom, was really powerful. Well done, Harry!
I watched the opening ceremony for the Invictus games, and it was just lovely seeing all these veterans from 21 Nations being proud of themselves and looking forward to competing.
You did a beautiful thing here, Prince Harry 🏅🎖️

During the entire tRump presidency, he used to tease me all the time. He even had a tRump mask that he put on whenever he knew I’d come over, and he thought that was funny. I guess he’s the snowflake after all
This picture was taken 35 yrs ago, when I was 7 months pregnant with my first child. It was quite scandalous at the time, and I never heard the end of it from my then mother-in-law 😆
I, on the other hand, am glad to have this memory in print ❤️
I just watched Prince Harry on Stephen Colbert, and I can’t help but like him a lot. So happy for him and his wife and kids that they were able to “escape”. Definitely rooting for him like I was for him mom all those yrs ago
Before I retired, I worked 31 Thanksgivings in a row. So here is a shout out to everyone working today, whether it’s in nursing, retail, military, law enforcement, fire and rescue, hospitality and restaurants etc. I appreciate you! 🧡💛🦃
I’m gonna post my new grandson’s feet. It killed me to take down the 2 pics I posted of my absolute joy! Especially because Mark Hamill commented on both! 😂
So many times I was greeted with “heil hitler” in this country. Just because I’m from Germany. It’s the biggest insult! My family was part of the resistance during WW2 and was hiding Jewish families in their attic. This was way before my time. But I’m proud
I have a car that I pay for. I have a good group of friends. I’m a grandma to 3 . Why do so many people feel sorry for me? I’ll never get why it’s such a status symbol to be in a relationship. It should not reflect poorly on me. And yet it does
Evangelical MAGA Pastor Shane Vaughn calls SC Justice Jackson “Judge Jumanji Jungle Lips” and says what’s coming out of her lips is “jungle monkey sense.”
He later gives the usual racist ‘apology’ of ‘not having a racist bone in his body,’ then immediately insults her again.
Many years ago, I went on a hitchhiking vacation for 2 months. Started in Germany, on to Switzerland, then Italy, then France. Had a sleeping bag, a rucksack and minimal $. Performed pantomime on street corners for $
Me in Aix-en-Provence at 17 🤍
So about 4 yrs ago I decided not to color my hair anymore. Many friends told me I would look older, but the freedom of not coloring and a healthy scalp sounded so good to me! I’ve never looked back!

They’re still treating my baby girl for her high blood pressure and have not started to induce Labor. Administered a vaginal med to soften her cervix, since it was completely closed as of this afternoon. It’s gonna be a while before my grandson is born 🩵🩵🩵
My friend worked in the south tower. 56th floor. She was told to stay at her desk after the plane hit. She didn’t listen. And it saved her life! She dodged falling bodies once she got outside. She made it out 10 minutes before the collapse
Good morning ❄️
Woke up to no cable and internet and cold and snow ❄️❄️❄️
But the house is nice and warm 😊
Gonna suit up a few times today to shovel the driveway 🥶
Hope you all have a great Friday, and please stay safe ☮️
☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️
I saw all your beautiful messages regarding my new grandson, and appreciate you all so much! I shared them with my daughter, and she wanted me to delete the pics, since she doesn’t want his pic out there. And of course I’ll honor her request!
Thank you all 🩵
I am absolutely overwhelmed by all the wonderful birthday wishes from all of you, and I hope the love and care you sent to me comes back to you 10 fold. Thank you all so very much for taking the time, it is very much appreciated
❤️🥰😘💐🌷🥳
JUST IN: Ivanka Trump arrives at a Manhattan courthouse, where she is expected to testify in her father's $250 million civil fraud case.
Follow live updates on the trial:
I am just heartbroken to know that
@TG22110
has passed.
He was everybody's cheerleader, Robin Hood and friend.
He was like Kiss where very few knew what he looked like. But he was always giving and thought of nobody else but his friends. And coffee.
I snuck over to my son’s house last night since I knew they were going to get discharged early this morning with my new granddaughter. I wanted to hang this on the porch railing, but that would have set off their ring camera 😂
They just sent me this pic 🩷
It’s starting to get really real! My daughter is due in about 6 weeks, and my daughter-in-law in about 7 weeks! 2 grandbabies, a boy and a girl, within days of each other. So freakin excited! 💙🩷💙🩷💙🩷💙🩷💙🩷💙🩷
The kids and their spouses and the grandbaby are coming tomorrow evening. I’ve struggled this year just to get the house somewhat decorated. I am not in the 🎄 spirit. I’m cooking Hungarian goulash with sirloin, lots of colorful peppers and paprika 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
Holy shazit! I’m overwhelmed! I’m gonna try and answer each one of you for taking the time to answer. Thank you so much for making this old(er) chick feel good ❤️
A week ago, I announced on here that my daughter and her husband are expecting a boy in June.
Well, I have more good news! My son and his wife are expecting a girl in June! Can’t wait to meet you, Vivian Rose 🩷🩷🩷
Time for a new profile pic with this cold weather on the way ❄️ If you click on the pic, you’ll see the cute lil ears on top of my hood. Love my faux fur coat 🖤🤍🤎
I have a small account, which is exactly how I like it. I don’t have the thick skin for a large, especially political account. But damn, I feel fiercely protective of some of the female accounts on here that are under constant attack!
#womenrock
Hey everyone! I’ve taken 3 weeks off of Twitter. I’ve read 14 books in that time, talked to friends and family, put out a few “fires” to help my girlfriends, stayed away from the news. But this f*cking Alabama supreme court put me over the edge 🤬
@DanWuori
I got my 3yr old boy a baby doll before his sister was born, and tried to teach him about baby care. That was 34 yrs ago, and my mother-in-law was outraged that I got my son a doll. Lol
@JonjayNeedham1
Just heartbreaking to read your many horrific experiences 😭💔 But so so important to give a voice to this little lad. And that lad turned into a real good lad ❤️
I’m gonna be 61 in April. My son is 34, my daughter is 30.
Yes, the silent generation took a lot of flack! So did my generation. So do my kids! We have to stop comparing generations. They all come with their unique challenges.
#NotACompitition
I had a good Mother’s Day. Called my mom in Germany. I didn’t get to see my son and his fam cuz he was working, but we’ll catch up this week. Got to see my daughter and her husband, and my brand spanking new grandson
#Babyfeets
I got to spend a lot of hours today lovin on my grandson (almost 3 months old)
I got to hug him and cuddle him and kiss him and feed him and burp him and change his diaper and read to him and talk to him and make him laugh 💙
It was a good day 💗
Well, this kinda blew up. Lol. Thank you to all the new follows! Not one negative response, which is just awesome! Thank you for making me feel welcome 🤗
Good morning ☀️
Not a lot of news with my daughter. They started pitocin last night, and they’re getting ready to break her water. Very very slow moving.
Thanks for all the beautiful messages. I’m gonna stay off of here. Too nervous 😬🩵
#Baby
Good morning ☀️
No real news yet. They’re still working on softening her cervix, and she’s starting to have some back pains. She said the hospital bed is uncomfortable, and with all the monitors attached, she didn’t get much sleep
#baby
Today is this lil dude’s 12th Birthday 🥳
I adopted him from our local shelter when he was 10.5. He had spent almost 9 months at the shelter with little interest because of his behavior problems
#AdoptASeniorDog
Just a quick update:
Baby boy is still not born. Lol. Before all this, I honestly had no idea that it’s not unusual for an induction to take about 4 days.
My daughter is in good spirits, but tired.
Thank you so much for all the positive energy ✨🩵
Watching the coverage of Biden in Ukraine today, it just strikes me that there seems to be not just mutual respect and admiration, but POTUS and President Zelenskyy genuinely seem to like each other. Just can’t fake that kind of connection
Good morning ☀️
Sitting here sipping my coffee and reflecting how grateful I am.
I got my new furnace yesterday, and I qualified for a $4,000 rebate thanks to the Biden/Harris infrastructure bill ❤️
No more worry this winter about heat 🔥
