Friend missed his flight out of La Guardia Friday a.m. due to super long TSA lines. With so many others missing flights, fighting to snap up spaces on next flights out he had to wait, wait, wait until finally a spot and then plane was delayed. Thanks GOP. #TSA

He's talking about Japan of old, under military control, and this would not happen today. But he barely knows anything about history. #Japan #Takaichi
Q: "Why didn't you tell U.S. alliesโฆabout the war before attacking Iran?" President Trump: "We wanted surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?"

I've been working on downsizing for a few years now. Not a hoarder, got rid of a lot of stuff, but it doesn't really look like it. Now if husband would work on downsizing, that would really make a difference. ๐
After her friendโs father died, leaving his loved ones to sort through his things, Ann Patchett decided it was time to get rid of some of her own belongings. โThe closer I got to the places where I slept and worked, the more complicated my choices became,โ Patchett writes.

Just saw an ad that I'm going to present on April 8 about how memoir writing is similar to writing fiction (and way easier to market). I don't attend that group's meetings anymore but guess I need to go to that one! #lifewriting #amwriting #memoir

I'm not at all Irish but did accidentally wear green today, then remembered to make corned beef & cabbage and Irish soda bread (in the breadmaker) for supper. Somehow I don't feel right making this favorite meal any other time... tradition can be restrictive. #StPatricksDay

Hmm, a "Japanese-inspired mayo" by Hellman's? I'll stick to the real Kewpie even though I don't like the squishy bottle. Kewpie makes for outstanding potato salad and egg salad. #foodies

Beautiful day for a walk along the river but saw no eagles in the nest. I did notice gas prices here went from $2.98 over the weekend to $3.19. #stlwx

On #InternationalWomensDay I think of my mom who survived WWII, married the "enemy," and started a new life in a strange land. Didn't know much about her early years until I sat with her to write her memoir with tears and laughter. Write the stories! #lifewriting #history

At our park today, I met an elderly gentleman who as a boy was @YellowstoneNPS during an earthquake in 1959. Campers were buried by a landslide, the Old Faithful Lodge stone fireplace collapsed so his family had to sleep in their car bouncing with every aftershock. #history

So painful, sold daughter's beautifully boxed wedding dress and veil for a pittance. But not so painful that it went to a woman with stage 3 breast cancer struggling with medical bills. โค๏ธโ๐ฉน
