Friday night

Tern is right. It’s great having an informed online community that’s adapted to the ongoing pandemic reality and is doing everything possible to stay safe. I know it’s been a tough ride, but please know you are not alone. Source: x.com/1goodtern/st...

Do you feel like the only one who still wears a mask at home in 2025 when people are still sick? Well guess what? You're in good company - thank you, Christina Applegate!

Timeline cleanser! 🥲🤧🥰

I just had to click still streaming on my TV. It was going to shut off lol

The Faculty was awesome! What a cast! Going to have to add it to the Halloween rotation.

If you are fed up with social media suppressing info on Covid, other viruses and Long Covid, give this a like and repost. Let's make our voices be heard LOUD and clear all across everyone's feed!!

I think I shocked someone to the core. They discovered I still take C19 seriously enough to practice precautions. After more than 5 years. Because. The evidence says it’s still a problem.

There’s no number of COVID infections that will make you immune to COVID. The more times you catch it, the higher your risk of Long COVID — and other serious health problems.

This plant was a green stalk all spring and summer. I wondered if it would ever bloom. It finally did and is quite unruly lol.

Attempting to grow food indoors.

Every time I hear someone coughing, I automatically tell myself “and that’s why I’m masking!” #SelfEncouragement #MicrobesFree NOT #FreeMicrobes 😷

This is why you need to not just mask, but mask consistently in public.

Found a caterpillar! My son calls it "Big Dave." Lol

Current mood

Readers: "Thank you for writing about this!" "Beyond maddening" "I have never been so glad to be 73 years old and have diabetes" www.bleedingheartland.com/2025/10/05/m...

Eventually, after millions more kids get Long Covid, they are going to start asking their parents why we didn’t do something? How could we let this happen? What are you going to tell them? You didn’t know?

Hi. Stop letting your kids get Covid, I absolutely beg you as a fully grown adult who can’t believe how little of a life I have after 3 years of LC. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/30/h...

How about wearing masks to NOT get it!🤦

Has anyone succeeded in getting kids under 12 a Covid vaccine in the Midwest?

New post: Following a special meeting to put Superintendent Ian Roberts on admin leave, Des Moines School Board president Jackie Norris defended the district's hiring process and criticized "the name-calling and misinformation that is meant to divide us." www.bleedingheartland.com/2025/09/27/s...

This COVID outbreak is no joke, gang. Lots of folks turning up positive. Time to * Get that new Vax if you can * Stock up on masks * Stock up on COVID tests - they are selling out * Make a battle plan to take care of yourself if you need to quarantine * Avoid larger events if you are vulnerable

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.” Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!

My oldest just informed me it smells like manure outside. I told her she could put on a respie. So now she's wearing it! 😷

Stacy perches

A new development! The pepper plant has flowered!

Made BLTs tonight with lettuce and tomatoes fresh from the garden. Also made apple cake. I don't think it's going to make it to the weekend lol

Homemade hamburger buns are so good, I may never buy them from the store again. The best part is they are done in under an hour!

Just saw a monarch and a hummingbird on the same plant! Nature is amazing.

Look who visited the garden today!

The dahlia finally bloomed! I thought I buried it lol

My attempt at making a knitted leaf placemat. My son says it looks like broccoli, so broccoli it is lol

Time to thin the carrots.

Fantastic

Meatball sandwich and fettucine alfredo

Saw this smiling cloud last night.

A little jealous of Lex Luthor's bookshelf.

First time growing cornichons!

At the dentist today, I had to turn the air purifier on. It really is "you do you." 😬🫩🤦‍♀️

80s nail.

What in fresh hell is this?! www.kcrg.com/2025/06/10/m...

The warning signs are there, folks: PLEASE HEED THEM AND MASK UP! N95s aren't too expensive, and there are many local mask blocs that can help provide free ones if you can't afford them. Protect yourselves and others - clean the air you breathe!

"Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right. Here I am!"

A bluejay visited our garden!

Driving is getting so scary. A car missed an exit and came to a nearly complete stop on the interstate! We were right behind it. I thought we were going to hit it. I said to my husband, "Do you understand why I pray every time we leave town now?"

Not sure who needs to here this, but the phrase back during covid is nonsense, WE ARE STILL DURING COVID RIGHT NOW!!!!

Not sure how she got in there lol #Caturday

Didn't try to, but I made a bird egg today.
