Me

I did the thing. #earlyvoting #vote #election

Mums looking good. #flowers 🌱

Yesterday I made some pickled peppers with my pablano, corno, and jalapeño peppers. I’ve already eaten half a jar! These are still left to do something with. I made some chili powder out of the red ones already. #gardening 🌱 #peppers

September Reading #booksky 📚💙 🌈📚

WV peoples do the Paranormal Trail. #spookyseason #WestVirginia #paranormaltrail

Right outlet, wrong side of the stud 😂 Measure. Who needs it? #homeimprovement

Flowers are winding down Boooooo #flowers #gardening #coneflower

In 2019, I had a gastric sleeve. On the bottom you see my A1C from that year on insulin and two different pills. On the top you see my A1C today on nothing. Stop shaming people for taking the “easy way out” whether that’s through surgery or GLP1s! They save lives. #diabetes

I have fulfilled my gay duty and listened to Orville Peck mumble through a new album. I want to like him sooo bad. And I want him to enunciate!!!!! #gay #music

Waterfalling yesterday but this one had a large tree fall over it so you can’t see the full thing. Clear Fork Rail Trail Waterfall #waterfall #wvwaterfalltrail #WestVirginia

Temu is feeding my cowboy fantasy. #cowboy #coathook

Do you like the corn I put on my wreath? 😂 Probably need less now but it’s a pretty bow. #corn #fall #wreath

Ashley McBryde - Sept 10 - Ashland, KY #ashleymcbryde #concert #ashlandky

This is why your gay friends are hurting today. Dolly saw us, welcomed us, and said, “You belong here.” When AIDS devastated our community, she supported HIV research. Decades later, she did the same for COVID. She didn’t just preach kindness, she practiced it. #dolly #gay

Goodbye Dolly

I love this little temu reading light! Clips onto the book and it’s not bright enough to keep me awake. So if I wake up at 3am I can read a little and fall back asleep. #booksky #reading

I don’t see these often. 🌱 💐 🦋 #monarch #zinnia #butterfly

This country needs to get back to traditional family values! The ones where everyone else goes to church on Sunday morning and I get to shop in peace. 🌱 🧎‍➡️

I need some filler flowers next year but I do admit filling in with basil smells great. 🌱 💐

Soooooooooooooo it turns out I started ordering fall plants in April. And now I have over 130 plants coming this fall. Do I have a plan for these plants? Nope not a single thought. 🌱 💐

I’m just a baby #turtle

When life gives you storms that blow over sunflowers, you get inside sunflowers. #sunflowers #gardening 🌱

“Because I'm an old Southern woman and we're supposed to wear funny looking hats and ugly clothes and grow vegetables in the dirt. Don't ask me those questions. I don't know why, I don't make the rules!” #gardening 🌱 #tomatoes

Listen! I think my second round of Botox looks fabulous! Now from the eyes down is still a train wreck but by god the top looks great! #botox #gayselfie #tellmeimpretty

I dunno if my flower arranging is getting better or worse but this one sure smells good with all the basil and oregano. #flowers #gardening #zinnias #cosmos #sunflowers 🌱 🌻

I’m not saying I’m bad luck but this is the second time he’s canceled a show the next show after I’ve seen him. The last time he canceled in Vegas because he had COVID. Or maybe he just knows it won’t be the same without me in the audience. #BarryManilow

One more #BarryManilow #Columbus

#10 in the books! #BarryManilow #columbus #ohio

When you realize at 11pm “oh shit I forgot the ticket!” And then you have to make a 5 hour round trip to get the ticket, you deserve a beer. Or 10. #beer

The results. 4 quarts whole tomatoes, 3 pints ketchup, and one leftover pint of crushed tomatoes. Also, one quart of crushed tomatoes failed in the canner. #gardening #tomatoes #canning

Good morning. We be meemawing it up in the kitchen this morning. #gardening #tomatoes #canning

Like I’m so thankful for Yeztugo and holy hell my legs are sore. #gay

Tonight is an attempt at some deconstructed stuffed poblanos. 🌱 #gardening #peppers

The green beans just didn’t produce like normal this year so instead of canning we will just have a nice pot of beans with the leftover Easter ham. #gardening #greenbeans

I can grow myself flowers (and herbs and weeds) part whatever. #gardening #flowers

Excuse me. There are children somewhere around here. #mushroom

I blame the lady bugs. 🐞

Lawd bless this house for the seeds I’m about to steal and forgive me for trespassing. #squirrel

Listening to Barry today and thinking how this man has created a soundtrack of my life. And how much I absolutely love him with every fiber of my being.

Memorial garden flowers 🌱

When you’ve decimated all the sunflowers but it starts raining and you are sensitive. #squirrels

Don’t forget to stop and smell the flowers. 🌱

Another pretty zinnia. 🌱

Now that right there is a pretty zinnia! #zinnia #gardening 🌱 💐

I planned to clean the house from top to bottom today 🤥 but woke up to no water and a 16 hour estimated repair time. Oh shucks. Guess I’ll have to read all day instead. 📚

Celery harvest. I have 3 more. Also, I don’t like celery 😂 #celery #gardening 🌱

Aww you didn’t have to bring me birthday flowers #cosmo #zinnia #butterfly

Cupcakes for tomorrow instead of a birthday cake. #cupcakes

It’s so hot that I went out before 10 am to give some weeds a chemical peel, and less than an hour later I’d sweated through my clothes. But the coneflowers are doing just fine in their first year. 🌱 💐

More people will see my crappy watercolor bookmarks than will see the big ole state fair. #watercolor
