Finding my way on personal Twitter after the trauma of running a gov account. I tweet about #LODD and #EM, but also cute animals to stay sane

I don't know who needs to hear this (actually, I do, but won't call them out here), but "apart" and "a part" mean two different things (and are often the opposite of each other). The former is being used so often on Twitter when it's clear someone meant the latter.


My heart is breaking for all affected by the #MarshallFire but also for journalists reporting on yet another local tragedy so we can be informed. Hearing their voices break during reports, you just know they are holding on to so much emotionally. So much pain in such a short time


Sending the youngest back home to Maine today. We're grouped in her cell as Bio Parents... she doesn't have any other parent type, lol. Love this girl!

It's amazing how a small gesture can re-energize the soul.

Thanks for a functioning A Line today @RideRTD! And kudos to Officer Washington who was working the train. Kind and friendly. He did his job while also engaging riders. Exactly how it should be done!👏👏
