.@AppalachianPowe you are nothing if not consistent. Why have we lost power at the same time two days in a row, after 10 minutes of rain? RAIN. The outage is affecting the exact same area today as yesterday, which leads me to believe it wasn't fixed properly.
Comments?

Nice abuse of power, Muskie.
#ElonMusk acknowledged deactivating satellite internet service last year to prevent a Ukrainian drone attack on a Russian naval fleet. #NYTimes

That moment you realize you'll never truly be yourself again. Everything is changed.
You just have to find your new normal.

So this is what we're doing now. #nodsslowly

Today I cried, "Why did/do I have to go through this?! Why couldn't we just leave things the way they were? I wasn't in pain before. I was fine. And now I'm not. And I'll never be the same again."
Then my husband reminded me:
"Because you would have died."

The last few weeks have been hellish. Today was a better day. #noteworthy

[Kelly Malone Dudley @KellyShannonMD]

So ready to be myself again. 😔

Every time my #mil refers to me in regards to our children, she calls me the "mother of his [her son's] children."

[Kelly Malone Dudley @KellyShannonMD]

Brutal, crass, and terrifying. I dare you to watch it all. https://t.co/I4yHCOuLkF

I climbed a 20+ foot rope today. Twice (!)
I am absolutely proud and I am absolutely gonna brag about it and ride on this confidence boost. Because it's only one of 20+ obstacles I'll be doing in a few weeks.
Working hard Feeling strong. Getting ready. #SpartanStrong

I believe we'd be profoundly happier people and live more profoundly authentic, unique lives if we stayed off social media. But we all know that.
Yet here we are. #socialmedia #2022

In all of 10-minutes time, my teenage daughter's mood went from euphoric to confused to irritated and back to chatty.
I have learned not to speak during these times.

Seemed like an appropriate time to reshare this gem:

[Kelly Malone Dudley @KellyShannonMD]

Things my daughter says that sound totally inappropriate out of context: "can it turn my butt into a face?" #snapchat #filters #abuttisNOTaface #messenger

It usually takes my son exactly 24 hours to respond to a text. I can only assume that he then throws the phone as far as possible, b/c when I respond back, I never hear from him again...😳 #manoffewwords #texting #conversationoverbeforeitstarted

[Kelly Malone Dudley @KellyShannonMD]

Those kids who 'graduated' from high school in 2020 when the #pandemic sunk its teeth in? They're still suffering, reeling, & trying to orient themselves. When a pivotal transition in life isn't allowed to happen, the ripple effect is lasting. They're lost.
We have to help them😔

[Kelly Malone Dudley @KellyShannonMD]

It's 2022.

We live in a country where it can now be a crime
to get an #abortion.

Helpless, hopeless women and their doctors or caregivers--criminalized.

How dare I be shocked.
But I'm shocked.

[Kelly Malone Dudley @KellyShannonMD]

It's not my children's job to know how hard all of this is.

It's yours, Twitter.
Thanks for being there. #raisingchildren #raisingadults #parenthood #grownandflown

[Kelly Malone Dudley @KellyShannonMD]

I can't remember much about the last 2 weeks. I didn't realize what they meant about #covidfog until now. I mean, woah. 😳 #COVID19

[Kelly Malone Dudley @KellyShannonMD]

After two and a half years, #COVID finally caught up with me. And if this is "mild to moderate", all I have to say is...

[Kelly Malone Dudley @KellyShannonMD]

I don't want to hear a WORD of support for #unnamedtreasonousformerPOTUS from anyone who hasn't at least watched the latest #Jan6thHearing. There is no room for opinion or reasonable doubt. #treason #insurrection #january6 #thisisnotpolitics

[Kelly Malone Dudley @KellyShannonMD]

@homesliced @hulu It just keeps getting better ...

[Kelly Malone Dudley @KellyShannonMD]

WOW, #thebear on @hulu is terrific television, amazing acting, and superb storytelling. And man, it makes me miss #Chicago.
