I do try not to get too political here. I will say that I only wish that all who are standing with Kirk would do the same for all of the men, women, and children who have also just this year, died at the hands of a gunman. Where are their words of concern, demands for truth and to stop the violence?

I did not take this, but this is my favorite time of the year, and I just loved this shot. I love the changes coming, the cool nights, often raining days but it all is how these beautiful leaves change. Let the colors begin!! Leaves are falling like rain in my back yard...

Nothing I say can top what this message is saying. Have a wonderful start to your week. Be kind to each other and to yourselves. ♥️

Even if it is just one person in your life, make it a person who will laugh with you and cry with you, also be that person you wish to have in your life. Always give back. Have a wonderful day, Be Kind. ♥️

Here it comes, my favorite time of the year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Some parts of the mountain are already showing off and others are still very green. My back yard is full of leaves that changed way to soon. The weather is all over the place and so is the changes. Have a wonderful Thursday, Be Kind.🍂🍂♥️😀

A friend sent this, and I just love our sunrises and sunset here in the mountains on the lake. Have a wonderful Tuesday. Be kind, share some goodness today.

Be a drop of kindness today. ♥️

About 20 min ride this is from a hiking trail yesterday. Clear the mind kind of day. Have a wonderful and peaceful Sunday Bluesky's friends. Today is overcast and cool, taking a nice relaxing day off from social media and just Huggin up on my boy Bentley. See ya tomorrow.🌨️♥️

I do struggle with understanding how we are where we are today. What I do not struggle with is keeping my light shining. My humanity is what I hold onto. I may not be able to change the what's and whys of today, I will continue to use my voice, and I will not allow it to dim my light.

either way I choose joy, laughter, over all the hate and insanity of the world today. Just have to laugh at the stupidity of it all. Have a wonderful weekend, find the humor no matter what... 😀

Good Thursday Morning to all. 5 minutes from my house at Grumpy Bear campgrounds so peaceful, no drama land right there. Be Kind to each other and to yourself. Find your peaceful place.

#SupportEpsteinAbuseSurvivors as a child my 3 siblings and I all were abused by our stepfather. I was out early but one was there until she was a teen. We did not share our stories until we were much older. Please give these women the courage to continue to stand up to their rapist. Support them.👊👊

Good Wednesday morning from my part of the world. Its cool, raining, foggy, and I love it. The mountains are loving all the rain just in time to help start to turn the leaves. I am looking forward to taking pictures of the fall colors, soon... Be Kind to each other and to yourself.🍂

40 degrees at Newfound Gap this morning. Friend sent me this pic on her walk. Jackets in the am, 70's in the afternoon. Loving this cool spell. Have a wonderful Wednesday!!

I cannot believe how cool the temps 70 and dropping, have been the last few days. I know it will not last but early mornings and evenings a light jacket feels good. This is my view every time I head into town. Love crossing this small bridge lined with flower boxes. Good Night Bluesky friends.

This is what I woke up to this from my overnight camping trip. Top of the mountain sure is pretty in the am... Just an hour away. Home now only stayed overnight, but I wanted to share NC mountain with you. Being up there changes how you think. Clears the brain....Happy Monday😍♥️👇

Overnight camping quick trip. On top of the mountain... smores, stories for the kiddo's. Life is short, and for me grateful to be back in bed!!! One night was all my body could do!! The rest will stay for a week, will send pictures.

On left, Bentley when I said " ready to ride", happy , smiles, bouncing all over the place, On the right, just got home from groomers, side eyes for next 3 hours. Not happy with me. But he smells good!!!

Good Monday morning to all. This is the look when I told Bentley we are going to the groomers today.😧 He loves the ride, but not the part of getting a bath or nails and ears cleaned.🐾 Bless his heart.💓 Hope everyone has a day filled with kindness. Spread some light wherever you go.🌞💓

Have a Blessed day, Be Kind to yourself. Rest when tired, take a day just to breath. 🌞💓💐🐾👍

Good Friday morning to all. Off for cancer treatment #6 halfway there!!! 👊 A friend living up at the top of hill that looks over our little town took this 2 days ago after a rain shower. 🌈 You can find me under the rainbow!!! 💓 Be kind, spread some kindness and be extra kind to yourself today!!

Well, I have Lymes disease on top of cancer. Not feeling so well but loaded up on Doxycycline for now 20 days. I will get back to all my fb as soon as I feel up to it. Please have a wonderful day, Be Kind to each other and to yourself. Self-care is very important. 💯

Almost to the top of Grandfather Mountain ( Blue Ridge Parkway) Have a wonderful Sunday.

Hello and Happy Friday!! Wow we sure had some rain yesterday, all my new mulch has now floated to the grass, looks like I will be moving it back. Wishing all a day filled with kind words. Smile and enjoy the day.

Good morning. The mountains are waking up slowly today. Got out before the clouds roll away and the sun and heat take over. Have a wonderful Wednesday. Be Kind to each other, and to yourself. 💓👋🌞

No matter what is going on around you. Find the strength to keep " hope" alive. Have a wonderful day, filled with hope, joy, and kindness. Happy Sunday to all my Bluesky friends.

Good morning from my small town nestled in the mountains. Have a wonderful day. Be Kind. Smile and let your light shine. It's the weekend, so no MSM for me only my dog and some sunshine if not too hot. Movie day and belly rubs for my boy is the plan. Off to vet and then off for a walk.🌞☑️👋

Good Thursday to Bluesky. Another hot and muggy day, but I am here to see it, so I am grateful for that. I love this picture, wildflowers and coffee, all I would need is a good book and some shade. Have a great day, Be Kind, Be thankful. 🌞💐☕

It's Monday so lock and load, here we go again. Take a deep breath, give thanks, hang in there!! 💓🌞💐

Ahhhh found the cat !!!!! Wait I do not have a cat!!!

Thank you all for your positive thoughts it has worked. The OPDIVO treatments are doing their job!! Great PT Scan for the cancer cells are all but gone. Of course, the rest of the body is in need of a repair but that will wait until the treatments are over. I am so very grateful for good news. 💓👊👍

Good morning, Bluesky friends. Another busy day my last for a while. Today is my 5th OPDIVO treatment. also find out results of last week's PT Scan. Send some positive thoughts for a good report. Almost halfway there. Go Me!! Be kind, spread some sunshine wherever you go today. 🌞💓👊

Yesterday was grooming day. He always gives me the cold shoulder after his appointment, but we are good today!! His groomer gives him a new bandana after every appointment, really special, Bentley cleaned, groomed, and much cooler for sure. His fur grows back fast, summer cut for now.🐾

Good morning sunshine's, time to rise and shine. My daughter in SC sent me this from her morning walk amongst the sunflower fields. I felt like I was walking with her this morning. Have a wonderful Tuesday. We got this. Be Kind to others and most of all to yourself.

Who's with me???

This was my sweetest, most funny, loving girl, Milley the last summer before she left us. She loved the flowers, to run in them, roll in them, was so happy, I believe she is still playing in the flowers, waiting for me to come join her. She is missed.

I guess I do not need to say anything here. Just be kind.

We have even forgot our own founding principles.

“I was hungry” and you cut SNAP. “I was thirsty” and you cut funding to ensure clean water. “I was sick” and you cut medicaid. “I was a stranger” and you deported me. “I was in prison” and you just left me there to rot. “Whatever you do to the least of these, you do unto me.”-Jesus

My sister sent me this and I could not agree with it more. We must be better to each other, to ourselves. I do not know how to get by the next few years if we do not keep our humanity in check. Have a safe and happy Sunday. Off to walk in the rain!!!🌧️

One of my favorite shots, sunset in WY. They were incredible almost every single evening. Good memories for sure.

Me every single day. Who has the power, you do unless you give it away. This has been my power for over 40 years. I just cannot control others, but I can control me. Have a wonderful weekend. 👊💓💙

I am so proud of my Spider plant. This beauty is just over a year old. Sometimes you just gotta pat your own back!!

I believe that is Karma, right?

After all the rain the water is flowing. I love to walk anywhere there is water just so peaceful.

Before grooming, my furry friend who is always hot, to this very short cut for summertime. The side eyes tell me he is not happy about it, but it will grow out in 4 weeks. My funny boy Bentley

No matter how many times you read this, read it again and again until the hate is gone. Wednesday mood. So much hate, hard to see past it to the good, but there is good, and we must fight for it just as hard if not harder! I refuse to give up on humanity. Be kind and have a wonderful day!!

Happy Saturday Morning Bluesky!! It is going to be a hot one today can just feel it, so grateful for the beautiful weather. We have a couple of fires going again, but so far contained. 2nd infusion yesterday, only 10 more to go!! Beat Cancer👊 Be kind to each other and yourself. 💓☮️💐
