The green stuff out in my yard is making me happy. Spring break is around the corner and I am going to hit the garden and get my hands dirty.

Why are people talking about the election as if the insurrection never happened? Is our collective memory really that short?

Lambing season is upon us. Rules of the game. If it can go wrong, it will go wrong. Be prepared to go where no person should go. Have medical grade gloves on hand. in the meantime, continue teaching classes like everything is JUST FINE THANK YOU #academicfarmer #reluctantfarmer

Has anyone else gotten bored with X? I have been spending time on threads. I like the energy.
