It must be really confusing to be Donald Trump - I mean, sofar today he has threatened to re-invade Venuzuela, and invade Cuba, Colobia and Greenland; oh, and don't forget Iran. I am not sure if he knows what he wants to do next. We all know what happens when everyone is a target

Happy New Year from the middle of somewhere.

Anticipation vs prediction.. interpretation of the survey results depend on the questions - for example, how much of responses were prompted/ elicited by the question. Still interesting though: kgun9.com/news/local-news/th…

Edging closer to New Years eve ... hoping for good weather. Some napping going on :-) The girls deployed raincoats for their walks, and sometimes retreated to the cave.

So, now we are in the inbetween time leading up to new year. The weather hasnt been awesome, so inside time, which means a lot of book reading and movie watching.

Christmas here sofar has been organised chaos. It's not a bad thing, just chaos.

Busy weekend, catchinh up wit Sam, maing sure other peoples children don't get lost . Heather, in an effort to have some quiet time, had her lucnh delivered to a tree. dont worry sweetheart, I'll never tell where you are.

my X feed has been a bit wierd lately - y'all are down rabbit holes so scary, the rabbits have moved out

It's getting kind of busy around here - cousin Sam has arrived with her mom, Alex is having a friedn over for the weekend ... Heather apparently has a secret tree she hides in (away from the group tree).

It's been little wobbly today, so the kids are not quite settled. I can't say I'm that keen on earthquakes myself.

Y'all know its almost Christmas already? are you emotionally prepared for shopping yet? The girls are ready for another holiday already. Probably not the only ones ...

It's been a fun weekend. Heather's friends got up to a bit too much mischief perhaps .. birthday lunch today, who would have thought the time would fly by so much!

... I wonder how long it will take before I hear the word "domolisavol" from Alex? I know Kim is storing books in a tree, like a squirrel

Some of Heather's friends, from Kelseyville, are staying over on the weekend so no quiet will ensue.

Back in St Helena, ready for more school and the run down till Christmas.

Post Thanksgiving recovery, then flight home. Food and fun in the desert.

Girls playing flashlight tag out in the desert, pretty coats deployed as its all of 10F out there. The two grand mothers are sharing recipes .. . I have snuck away to watch a movie

Settling into the inlaws house in the desert west of Roswell; Girls off doing what they do and letting off some steam after the trip. Probably wont see them till they apppear miraculously at dinner time

Poor Ukraine and @ZelenskyyUa , trapped between a rock and a hard place, by an agreement that is almost designed not to be accepted.

Do we really think the Epstein documents will implicate the president in the misadventures of firefly girls?
