Sometimes it's helpful to remember that this extremely stupid president is living his final years in complete misery and total fear. There has not been a moment in the last decade where he has seemed even remotely happy to me. He made his bed.

Sometimes they frolic

I will never understand my governor. Is it cowardice or a total lack of morals or something else? Whatever it is, I have fully stopped respecting him as a person.

To be loved.

We went out of town for 10 days and they went and stayed with their best friend. We got back yesterday. Their eyes have not yet forgiven me.

Sitting on the couch with my husband's parents and my child, having a spiritual moment by sharing with them something really important from my culture. *I'm making them watch Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit

So we've pretty much just given up on trying to get our toddler to sleep in his own bed.

My husband just pulled two socks filled with holes from my feet and announced in such disappointment, "I insist we be better than this."

My toddler began projectile vomiting as our flight was landing today and for a moment there I think I saw the face of god.

I'm not convinced he isn't a Muppet.

He's a 10 but he accidentally bit my hand yesterday trying to get a treat and then I had to go down a rabbit hole to figure out if I needed a tetanus shot.

This review of my upcoming novel STITCHED completely made my day.

I've written several books, and one of🫠 parts of publishing is self-promotion. @elimccann.bsky.social is publishing his first novel, so I'm going to help by asking y'all to follow him on his Amazon Author page. It really helps, especially for new authors. www.amazon.com/stores/Eli-W...

I spent the evening sobbing and laughing in all the best ways, so I can not recommend @elimccann.bsky.social ‘s new novel, Stitched, enough. It’s rare that I give a five star review, but this book is going to stay with me. Read it. It’s so charming and astute that it just might heal you. #booksky

“When I recently commended her for her efforts, she said, ‘It wasn’t like I was doing a service, Eli. Those women filled a need for me more than I ever did for them. They taught me how to be a mom when I was young and didn’t know what I was doing.’”

So good, Eli. ❤️

I had a pushy window salesman come to my house yesterday and tell me with a straight face that most windows only last five years but their windows can last 10 or 20.

My new column today about a memorable train ride I took in Ukraine in 2014. www.sltrib.com/religion/202...

Grandma is in town so we are invisible to the dogs.

“I believe the mouth speaks what the heart fosters. These women so clearly spent decades fostering the best of themselves, and I find myself affirmed, thanks to people like them, that authenticity doesn’t tend to stay hidden under a bushel for long.” I loved this. Thank you, @elimccann.bsky.social.

My husband made me take new headshots for my upcoming book because I've been using the same one for like seven years. I hate pictures of myself. Please just tell me which one of these to use for the back of the book.

Just found a birthday card I received for my best friend Sam, when I turned 16. Do you think I can talk Carmike Cinemas into honoring this coupon?
