Powering today's frustration into some cleaning out. Found some royal icing on the fridge that will get added to the compost. But why be boring about it?

I need a weekend of chatting without discussion of the world going to hell. So all things fun and creative are on the table.

Happy New Year! It's 2026 in Australia, so I'm counting it.

If rising costs are leading you not to renew your health insurance in 2026, what is your plan? I'm particularly interested in people with chronic conditions or if you become seriously ill, etc. I'm exploring ways my team can help create health content to support you.

What did you survive in 2025?

2026 will be my year. I'm past due.

Ready for a new year and new (positive) challenges.

It will never get old when my mother likes my Facebook posts. She died in 2019. Yes, my dad doesn't pay attention and switches to her account. 😂

So excited! Social Media, Sanity & You was named to Content Marketing Institute's Best Marketing Books for 2026 list. contentmarketinginstitute.com/career-devel... #booksky #socialmedia

Love Healthcare Workers vs. Hunger. Consider helping however you can. This Thursday, I'm giving the gift of time.

162 open projects and crisis monitoring.

Hey #hoosiersky, take a break and check out the Northern Lights tonight!

Ready for good things.

Let's do some good things today. 💙

Grading, sourdough and Hamilton this quiet morning. Services tonight. What's in your plans?

If you are grabbing #Thanksgiving deals like the one at Aldi, consider picking up extra items like their seasonings for a local pantry.

Nov. 1. My youngest is listening to Transiberian Orchestra and making glazed donuts in the air fryer. Find and share joy in this world where you can. ❤️

Parents, be mindful of the words you use to your children. No matter their age.

I remember so many years growing up when we talked about the dinner table about cutting back because of government shutdowns. My hearts are with the families impacted.

— Happy October 🍂 My mom sent me this, so I’m sharing it with anyone needing it. When the days get long and challenging, remember that we can do hard things.

I need to reset my feed. While I'm a news junkie, the news is heavy. And people in my field are just weary after working in the digital space. What would you recommend to follow who's uplifting?

I'm going to keep doing my tiny part to make a difference for others. I hope you do, too.

Be gentle with others.

Went to go volunteer at our food pantry for work today. The lines are so long.😭

Dear Authors & Writers, A world in which you and your stories don't exist is an unbearable and unimaginably sad world. Whether you realize it or not, you are shaping this world into a better place and giving voice and hope to lives far beyond your own. Keep writing. #writingcommunity #writerslife

May you find rest and time with loved ones this weekend.

Graphic footage of the shooting of Charlie Kirk has been widely available online. In a survey earlier this year, 58% of Americans said tech companies should take steps to restrict extremely violent content online – down from 71% who said that in 2023. www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

Social media mom here. It's OK to be offline for however and whenever you need.

Remember to check in with your social media team members. The world is heavy.

Sick in bed, so using my scrolling time to speak up in the digital space. Tell the Smithsonian: Reject demands to whitewash history act.indivisible.org/sign/smithso...

I may have to do this!

That I'm the "cool mom" to my college student's friends. Why? Simply because I treat them as the adults they are.

With all the talk about cuts to Medicaid and other programs, I'm worried about what's going to happen to access to healthcare in our country. I signed up for this virtual event to learn more. If this concerns you too, join me! social.redwine.blue/s/kkX7o7TN

So Taylor Swift is engaged. Social media managers, we can sit back for the next few days, right?

"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." —Benjamin Franklin

Interesting slice of history and worth the watch. Divided we fall.

Wishing you all the very best in this coming week.

🗣️ LIBRARIES ARE COOLING CENTERS! Beat the heat by visiting your local library for air conditioning. Please be kind if their AC is on the fritz! They are doing their best, just like you 🩵

Finally finished editing this video on what to expect during a forensic exam after an assault. I am very grateful to the Center of Hope team for their expertise. And in Indiana, these are covered by the state. Get the care you need. youtu.be/N7cPdVk0gEk?... #hoosiersky

My survival tactic will be just liking all your photos of sunflowers. 🌻

Mood.

I find it interesting that the POWs we had in this country in WW2 had the ability to worship, to create art, to participate in sports and more. They were also part of the local communities. blog.history.in.gov/tag/camp-att...

Join me for the latest episode of Did I Say That Out Loud? I had the joy of talking mental health in the social media space with Stu and Mariah. open.spotify.com/episode/0wQq...

Nothing like your kid getting threats over social media and texts. Yes they've been reported to the national cyber tip line.
