@lindaholmes People have a lot of feelings about their houses, and they can have a hard time feeling like the number that matches the market reflects everything their house means to them. I always get sad when I see local houses listed for way too much.

Simplest answer: it’s a CRAZY story about CRAZY participants attempting to go to THE CRAZIEST location ON EARTH. Humor indispensable to lubricating the mind’s gears as we attempt to absorb it. Then, juxtapose it in real time against 100s of migrant deaths & 🤯

✨When asked by @FLOTUS what she championed for, our 2023 Kentucky Teacher of the Year @MandyPerez3 said: “As a rural educator, I champion for teachers to include diverse texts in their curriculum b/c every child deserves to be seen, valued, heard & loved … even if they’re the only student in the class that may be different.” #KTOY #NTOY23
