There are few things I enjoy more than making fun of mispronunciations of words. Especially when people throw and R up in a word or tack on an S. I also enjoy Subversive Cross Stitch.

If you cross-stitch and you’re home or your kids are home and you want to keep them busy, order the kit to make this warsh cloth.

Most of us have kids home from school for a week or more, likely more. Some of y’all are working from home or not able to go to work at all. I found this for these times. I know it’s difficult for many of you.

I couldn’t say this better myself. Love y’all.

As long time readers know, I love Mr. George Wallace. He speaks the truth about serious things and he’s a hilarious comedian.

He tweeted this today:

Yes, it’s fact.

I discovered the poet Cleo Wade a few weeks ago. She is a new favorite. I thought this was apropos for this moment.
