Addressing the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Peoples Crisis, Locally and Beyond.
“awareness for the disproportionate violence Indigenous women face -- which in certain communities is 10 times more than the national average. California has the sixth highest death rate“
Saw this on the news today, needed to share.

Stay positive and safe out there Littens.
I read this today and couldn't help but cringe...every time I venture out, It seems more and more people in my neighborhood are grumpier and angrier.
A few days ago, was out and about with my Mom when some guy walked up to her and pointed to the south while he said “the border is over there, you belong that way.“ All I overheard was the word “border.“ 👇

I had always dream of opening my own bookstore. When I was 16 I made this sign.
While I doubt that I will ever actually open my own book store, I have reenvisioned my dream shop & don't mind sharing this.
It was going to be fantasy/paranormal focused with steampunk decor.
While I've noticed that some Littens work with books, wondering if anyone here ever dream of opening a bookstore? Do you believe there is a chance these days?
March 31, “César Chávez Day” in the State of California. Reserved this year on April 1st. because the 31st fell on a Sunday.
My maternal aunt, Linda was involved with this movement for awhile ☺️💝.
💝💝💝💝.
To all who celebrate! Have a Peaceful and Blessed Easter Day!

Hi Littens, for this week, I had planned to post one of these positive posts each day...however, I won't be able to come on to Litsy tomorrow. Have a Good Friday everyone 😘💕💝.
For Lent this year, I gave up posting new “book“ reviews for 40 days here on Litsy...
For those who don't know, Lent (as a simple explanation) is when we Catholics give up something we like/love doing, eating, etc. for 40 days.
Since becoming a Litten, I have found myself completely enjoying being part of the Litsy community (thank you all for being so friendly).
As I read or finish reading, I love being able to share my reviews here👇
Began considering what my dream library would be like...I've done this before, yet this is the first time I went searching for the fun of it (which is a dangerous thing to do, there are many libraries that I just wanted to travel into and roam for awhile 😂).
This one is among my favorites.

#dreambasket 😎😉👍...Epic!
Do I need to be invited to post bookshelves to the hashtag “shelfie“ ??
Some little critter nibbled these yummy clovers into the shape of three moons! 💫🌙🌜🌛☺️💝. Epic!!!
Hi everyone, just wondering...
With all the excitement about Odysseus' Moon landing journey, I am wondering about the Ulysses mission way back in October 6, 1990.
Ulysses was lost in space, wasn't he? Orbiting the sun forevermore?
Not much into space...my brother was. He's name was Ulysses (for the Greek Hero, Odysseus). Why this all has my attention 💫😉👍.
First Image From Odysseus!!!!
image found online.
This will likely be a bit “out there“ for many here. This just has me perplexed...
I've been dreaming of this staircase. I can usually figure out my dreams, or rate them, from “what the heck“ to “awesome.“ This one keeps coming, and I can't figure out why.
This staircase is from the show, Charmed (original). I do love the show, yet it has been years since I've watched.
I walk into the house, sometimes tour, then always go up the stairs. 👇

There is a Yogi Bear themed campground and I never been there !!!!
They have a few more locations in other states.
We love Yogi !!! How have we not been to visit this epic place? 🤩.
Miss this fantastic place! Glad it is still in business 🪄📚🧚♀️ magical place 😍💝.
A friend sent this to me. Not sure if I will be able to go, yet it looks like a promise about interesting upcoming events! 📚📚🤩📚📚.
My lunch from earlier today 🌮, homemade tortilla filled with organic goodness...oh too good!
Well, out of curiosity, I timed my current reading speed.
25-45 pages 📖 per hour (trade-paperback book, good font-size).
Assumed that was great until I checked it up...😂...sluggish to average.
I already believe that I've become a sluggish reader, therefore “average“ is a win for me 😉📚💝.
Those who read my tantrum over my grocery frustrations (thank you, @Leftcoastzen. It was kind of you to help me vent those frustrations), you know how we try to buy locally as we can (or grow in our garden).
1st from my state, 2nd my country, 3rd “the Americas,“ and 4th overseas (rarely anymore...).
Coffee is one that we always assumed would always fall under #3.
Coffee from California!!!! 💃☕💃☕. 👇
For All Who Celebrates...
May the Magi Bless your Day with Safety and Yumminess.
This Holiday Season sped by way too fast...my family starts celebrating Christmas from the beginning of November till the day after Tomorrow ☺️.
You'd assume that this would be long enough...Nope. Yet, I suppose that if Christmas was year round, we wouldn't appreciate Christmas as much...💝.
Have a good one everyone!
When This New Years Eve
12-23-23 adds up to 123-123
It just might mean that this will be a magical Eve, a hint that 2024 will be one of magic.
Get ready, 123-123 🕰️🔔🎶.
Early this year, was out and about when we saw this plastic sheet caught high in a city tree.
Aside from the pollution annoyance...I couldn't help wondering if it was someone's public call for Batman?
I mean, it looks like Batman's symbol, right???
While this has since torn to shreds and blown away...it remained in good shape for weeks. I would go and watch it, as if waiting for an actual Batman to show up 🥺🤩 LOL. 😂 If only...🤔.
A frozen treat. My mom & I love ice cream at any time of the year LOL.
Use well, overripe bananas (Instead of throwing them away, you can peel, slice, and freeze in freezer-safe container or bag).
Your choice of unsweetened powder cocoa.
Your choice of milk. I use unsweetened Almond Milk. Uses very little milk, you don't want a milkshake.
Sugar (optional).
Add ingredients 2 your taste.
Use a good blender, and blend until smooth.
🍫🍦Enjoy!
Liked all my Christmas gifts...yet this one is topped as my favorite!
All year I looked for a little Bruno doll, (I have a tiny one, wanted one a little larger). This Christmas, my mom found me this little guy!
Oh! Too perfect!
O.K. obviously, my mom and I are completely Kidults! LOL...
Hi Littens! Might not be able to come on Litsy until a day or two after Christmas.
Just want to post these for those who celebrate this Holiday.
Have a cozy, Merry Christmas Eve!
...just don't ask me to try and pronounce this in person LOL.
Never really celebrate the change of the seasons...yet my ancestors did.
According to my research...Across the the lands now known as the Americas, there were “clocks“ built into the very Earth. At least one that was recently “discovered“ was tracking the seasons before the building of Stonehenge in prehistoric Wiltshire, England or the pyramids in Egypt.
...👇...
My grown up Christmas Wish is that everyone, everywhere (no matter their religion) will pray & work towards peace.
That everyone will look upon their innocent & precious little children and realize that the children of their enemies are just as innocent & precious.
This is the season of lights...Winter Solstice, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa...May this Winter be given a source of light not from artificial sentiment but of genuine Love.
Amen.
It's that time of year again!
When people ask how my family Decks The Halls...I say, just like Monroe From the TV show Grimm 🌲🪄🎄. Oh, and we've already begun 😉👍. The magic 🪄 is irresistible.
Happily Decking The Halls to Christmas Music...🎅🎶🤶🎶⛄.
Still waiting for Christmas Movies on Ion TV...
Today, KOST began their Holiday music celebrations! 👏💕💝🦌🎄🤶🎅🌲⛄☺️👍. Happy Christmas Dancing 🎉💃👏🪄.
Saw this post. Only a couple of days remaining, yet still wanted to share.
My mom went to Fairytale Town (Sacramento, CA) when she was a kid, and took my brother and I there when we were children. Wonderful place💕🥰.
Fairytale Town is a theme park.
The event posted above is for the Scholastic Book Fair.
Even while my family has moved away from Sacramento, CA, my mom follows Fairytale Town's news feed.
