"How to buy a heat pump for your home" (I know nothing about heat pumps, but this article and the attached comments seem like they're a good start.)

Playing around with some designs for my #PostcardsToVoters, since I just bought some blank postcards and masking fluid (and I have a bunch of different pens). I need to fill in the white space a bit, but these seem like a good start.

#UCLA men's basketball won, with Jaime Jaquez again leading the Bruins in scoring!

I just made a donation to the Carter Center (https://www.cartercenter.org) so I could make it "In Honor of" rather then "In Memory of" Jimmy Carter. 💜

All kinds of wins for #UCLA teams today:

Baseball
Softball (won both games of a doubleheader)
Gymnastics
Men's volleyball
Mens' basketball

#3GoodThings:
1. I got a good night's sleep last night
2. I managed to get out of the house early to run my errands
3. Tortilla chips with cheese and guacamole!

Some of you may have heard about the young girl who wrote to L.A. County asking for a unicorn license.
Here's commentary from Marcia Mayeda, the L.A. County official, including why she took the time to respond to a child: https://scvnews.com/marcia-mayeda-unicorns-and-magic-wishes/

"Why did we respond to a child, when there are so many pressing matters before our department? Because I was Madeline, many years ago. We all were, in some form or another."

I'm not crying...it's just dusty here. 😢

Whoo hoo! #UCLA men's basketball won tonight, with Jaime Jaquez leading the Bruins in points (26), rebounds (9), and assists (3).

Another batch of #PostcardsToVoters, this time for Bill Carlson's re-election to Tampa city council. (side note: a #VoteSaveAmerica friend of mine from Florida had a bunch of postcards that she wasn't going to use, so she sent them to me, and now some of them are going back to Florida!)

I hope that #SmallActionsAddUp!

I had to mail a batch of #PostcardsToVoters for Jennifer McClellan today, but I had no other errands. So instead of starting up the car to drive to the post office and back, I walked the three-quarters of a mile to the collection box.

Small actions for democracy, the environment, and my health = win-win-win!

(Note to self: next time leave 20 minutes later so the local restaurant will be open and I can buy a breakfast burrito 😁 )

Best thing about yesterday's #SuperBowl? Troy Kotsur signing the National Anthem in #ASL (although I had to go to YouTube to find more than just a clip): https://youtu.be/Pf-LE0LFcdg

I just have to address and stamp these #PostcardsToVoters for the Jennifer McClellan campaign, and they'll be ready to go! #VoteBlue

🏀 Yippee! #UCLA mens' basketball won, but I'm mostly happy that my favorite player Jaime Jaquez played really well tonight: 24 points and 15 rebounds!
