@Housesitting still no response from anyone at “Trusted House Sitters.” I’ve called 13 times, sent 4 emails, 1 FB message, 2 tweets. All of this within the past 12 hours. Still no reply!😡🤬😡 Is this how you treat your Premium Customers? #badservice

@Housesitting I have been trying to contact Trusted Housesitters for 24 hours - NO RESPONSE! I’ve emailed, called, messaged, bot chatted - no response!
As a Premium Member, I’m supposed to get the help I need fast. Clearly not.
Contact me ASAP!

@marcorubio If Congress would only focus on one thing at a time, not much would be done. I believe that Congress has both the ability and bandwidth to multitask.

Sad re tourism in NYC, @NYTpatrick. I’m a FT tour director & NYC tour guide, I’d like to read stories of the impact on tourism workers in the industry. I got Covid while working in March. No protection 4 freelancers & no work since then. It’s millions of us. Write about us, pls!

It’s Sunflower Extravaganza weekend in Hudson Valley!
It’s impossible to not smile when you’re surrounded by this gorgeous, majestic flowers!
Fun fact: did you know that the tallest sunflower in the world is 30 feet?… https://t.co/GXl1sWU61R

Duo local duck: local HV duck braised with local Triple Sec, salt from my local area in France, pepper from a French pepper mill - and a NYS apple!

@nytimestravel how about addressing the major crisis we tour guides & tour directors are going through right now? On my only tour this year, I got COVID-19. 9 weeks, still waiting for my PUA! NYS DoL is a mess. And after July 31? There is no work for us.

First “snake gift” of the season from one of my furballs! A cute little garter, totally unharmed. One of my kitties like to present me with snakes every so often by carefully bringing one inside by my feet so I can… https://t.co/D1WK4VPsi0

Went grocery shopping for staple stuff and was totally floored over how empty the shelves were! Either they had just cleaned, taken apart and were now restocking or an army of doomsday preppers came through. 😱😳😵😷 https://t.co/EmbKvNgVVF

Killer breakfast: my homemade sunshine kick-in-the-gut cocktail to get you going, a dose of Death Wish coffee and nature’s perfect package: farm fresh eggs.
A great start to another great day.
