TX Rep Kay Granger, a long-serving Republican & influential figure in Congress, is facing questions about her ability to serve effectively amid allegations that she's been living in a memory care & assisted living facility since July -raises concerns about leadership transparency & accountability.

Critics argue that the lack of transparency undermines public trust.

If she were a Democrat, Republicans would be demanding her resignation.

exactly what are the requirements for a republican representative.
troy_friz_zell mastodon (AP)
You don't need to be in possession of your faculties if you're a Republican. It's not like they think.

You'd hope her family would intervene, but then, if she had a caring family, would she be a Republican?

Photo looking down at the some rather narrow stairs going at the end of a rather narrow hallway. It almost look more like stairs that were made for cats in the way it's been divided and turns back on itself without guard rails. Make sure to watch your step!

Sorry, let me just.. scootch on by you right here
A very strange photo that someone took from a bathroom that has a door at the level of the countertop by the sink. In the photo, the door is open and there are super narrow stairs behind it leading upward to another room.

Why are there so many bonker stair renovations out there?! Some poor souls are being paid to build these.
So photo of a red and white painted kitchen that has stairs integrated into the smooth countertop. You can see a fridge, a bar space, and an oven in the background lit up with track lighting. A bar stool sits next to the bottom part of the stairs, and a few plants have been placed on the stair (where you step) as decoration next to where you would stand by the kitchen sink... centimeters away.

Good morning!

We ended up with about an inch of snow on the grassy areas and the trees. The road and the sidewalks looked clear, so I decided to go out on my early-morning walk.

Mistake. The road and the walks had black ice. So I turned around and came back inside. I really can't risk a fall. The ice will melt wherever the sun hits it as the day goes on, even though the temperatures are not supposed to get above freezing. And then we go into the deep freeze for a couple of days. I probably won't be walking for a while.

The good news is that I'll have plenty of time to write and try to get my WIP in shape to send out to a reader for a Christmas present.

Happy solstice, everyone, and have a good one.

Good morning! Thank goodness you realized there was black ice early on. That stuff is treacherous.

Now you have a few guilt-free days for staying nice and warm. Enjoy the hibernation! I'll be doing the same, but just because of the temperatures. Fortunately we didn't accumulate any black ice.

Well, the government will be open after all... for now


I am sure we will hear grumbling from the MAGA Congress members, as we always do when there is cooperation across the aisle.

Happy #SlackerdaySaturday! I slept in this morning, so it's another slow start.

We're sliding into the deep freeze so I'll spend most of the day inside. Even the birds didn't come to the feeders until the sun shone directly on the food. Now they're making up for lost time.

There's not much I have to do today, so I may take some time out to watch one of my favorite Christmas movies, "Love Actually". It's regarded as comedy/romance but it always makes me a little sad as well.

#Today
Uncle Harvey mastodon (AP)
Watching another Christmas movie is way down on my Honey-doin schedule anymore. I've seen so many already. But that's not really up to me. The wife sorta owns the remote for our movie viewing pickings. So, yeah.. probably another holiday movie will be making it into #myday #today anyway. 😏

At least I hope it is a good one. Like a re re-run of "Die Hard" or something. 🤞

I’m wearing my Christmas jumper today. Tom hates it but I love it. What do you think?
Me in the hallway taking a mirror selfie. You can’t see my face but you get a good view of my jumper which is white with a design of a plump black cat wearing a red Christmas jumper decorated with white snowflakes. She’s also wearing red reindeer antlers. The outfit goes well with her little red nose and white whiskers
Sharonbw mastodon (AP)
It’s perfect for #Caturday as well as Christmas. You should have gotten Tom a matching one. 😂

Creo que esta tarde me voy a meter toda la última temporada de Lo que hacemos en las sombras entre pecho y espalda

I woke up with a pinched nerve. To avoid a trip to urgent care or the ER, I'm trading my MIL a dozen bakery donuts for a few muscle relaxers. If I can get it to relax for a day or two, I'll be fine. Currently, I'm not my best, and I almost had to ask my wife for help using the bathroom. 🤦🏼‍♂️ Luckily, I managed to keep my dignity a little longer. I blame my work for this. The last week was stressful beyond the usual.

Me too. It's hard to do the simplest tasks with pain. It's in my neck.

Ugh! At least you have a long vacation to relax, though I know you don't want to spend it in pain.

Good morning, Mastodon friends! Winter Solstice will be a chilly one here, but the sunshine makes the outdoors look happy and bright. Even though Jan. and Feb. usually are the coldest and snowiest parts of the winter, my mood always improves once the days start getting longer instead of shorter!
My fun holiday project for the day is dehydrating mini marshmallows. I've never done it before, but supposedly they're great to eat by the handful or add to cereal or hot chocolate.
Have a good day!
