Part of my physical exam of a bird is a test of the smooch reflex. This U2 passed with flying colors! 🤠🩷🩵😎😊💋💋💋

Good humpday morning from the fabulous NJ Shore! Remember, "All you need is LOVE"! 🤠🩷🩵💜✌️✌️✌️😊💋

As a veterinarian, I was trained to recognise important diseases of animals that can hurt us.🤠 Some are easy to spot.👀 Some sneak up on ya. But there will be signs... 🤠💩🤔💩🤠💩💩💩💩💩

Today was such a beautiful day! This morning I stopped by the store to parlay a $20 scratch off before heading out to the protest. Then later, after a couple back porch sunset pics, I settled in for a screening of the Woodstock documentary. Oh look! There I am!

A comment I see a lot on the protest posts is, "They are all a bunch of old people who think their SS is at risk. Fact is it was attended by a wide range of age groups. This adorable couple turned out to be highly intelligent, well informed young people who have concerns about their future.

Today I got to check out a fav bearded dragon patient. Frankie is busy making eggs and is a little out of sorts but she is healthy and should be able to get them laid ok. On my way home I stopped to parlay a nice $20 lottery win. A lady there said she wants to give me a tarot reading. Think I will

At Goodwill recently, a yellow miniskirt caught my eye. For $3, I just threw it on my pile. Today I decided to use it for a back porch sunset shoot. It turns out it's not a miniskirt! It's a skort! It has a hidden pocket on each side! Plenty of room for phone, cigs, ID, money, and keys! Genius!

Happy spring equinox! I like to celebrate with some culinary perfection from a fav NJ eatery!

Today at the store I got more friendly smile backs, outfit compliments and "Aren't you cold?" questions than usual. When I am dressing to go out, I remember: "Every day is a fashion show and the world is your runway" -Coco Chanel "Fashion rule number one - Always dress cute" -Paris Hilton

One of the reasons I choose to work exclusively with exotic species as a vet is that each is unapologetically and uniquely flamboyant in it's own way. I identify with that. 🐰🐥🐦🦇🦆🦅🪱🐌🦎🐍🐢 🦩🦤🦜🦝🦨🦥🐁🐀🦔🐯🦎

Today I stopped by Freehold mall to do a little shopping and have a visit with some friends. Today was one of those days when everybody I smiled at smiled back and not a single one did the awkward "look away"! 🤠🩷💜🩵✌️💋😊

I stopped to pick up fixins for dinner then to the store to pick up some lottery. On my way in, there were a couple guys who had a rather intimidating appearance who were on their way out. I held the door for them. They both gave me friendly smiles, said thanks and wished me a good night! Respect!

Good Sunday morning from The fabulous NJ Shore! Have a great day! 🤠🩷💜🩵✌️😊💋

So today after a stop to parlay a small winning lottery ticket, I came across a discarded relic that was very nostalgic. My HS buddies and I spent a lot of time playing pinball and foosball! My fav tree friend out front gave her usual great energy for her daily hugz, making it a very enjoyable day.

Today I parlayed another small win, then went over to the boardwalk to hang around enjoying the nice day, watching the ocean and greeting the boardwalkers that went by. 🤠🩵🩷💜✌️💋😊

So I scored a cute rouched mini and a Christian Siriano bag at Goodwill. The mini had a stain that cleaned right off with a Dude Wipe. I loved Christian on Project Runway and am happy to have one of his bags! Cost of the two items was $8.78! I love thrifting!

Today I headed to the store to parlay another scratch off win. $100 this time! I've been playing the #71 tickets (my age) I'm certain that million dollar ticket is in the stack! At home my fav tree friend out front gave her usual great energy and vibes for hugs 🌳💋🌳💋🌳💋🌳

So no sun at sunrise today but it's always fun to shoot with a fresh layer of snow! My fav tree friend out front gave her usual great vibes to start the day!

Tonight I made a quick run to parlay another small lottery win and pick up a loaf of Wonder for b-o-l-o-g-n-a and Miracle Whip sandwiches. 🤠🩷🙂🩵😊💜✌️💋

So this morning it was "Feels like" 3 degrees out and the wind was brisk, so I rocked another bargain vintage coat for today's sunrise on the fabulous NJ Shore shoot! It was especially fun to shoot in the fresh snow!

Skirt fashion: The rule, "The tag is always in back so you must wear it that way" Is just a suggestion. I didn't love how the white buttons of this sweater skirt looked going up the center in front. A quick twist and I like the buttons now and I ended up with a cute little pocket right in front!

When I talk about raising fancy pigeons as a kid, I specialized in these. There are many colors of Modena pigeons and I won many blue ribbons at the fair with mine.

Happy Bird Day 2025! I first fell in love with birds at 10 yr old when granddaddy let me start raising fancy pigeons on his horse ranch. I have dedicated the next 61 years to them and I have no regrets not becoming an equine vet like granddaddy hoped But I know he's proud of me. RIP Granddaddy!

So this morning I overslept and missed the sunrise. So I decided to dress up like one! Good morning from the back porch on the fabulous NJ Shore! I hope you have a wonderful and colorful day! 🤠🩷✌️☀️😊💋

I got a $15 win so I headed for the store to parlay it. Tonight a cutie I smiled at said she loved my fit and wanted to know where she could get the jacket. I told her I got it on Amazon and that I thought she would look supercute in it! She gave me a huge smile and said, "Thanks gorgeous!

Mr Orange Shoes is a fav OG sunup boardwalker. He always has a friendly greeting!

Merry Christmas Eve eve!

I always told my students to show their patients some trust and love!💋🦜

So today the big yellow ball took the day off so I decided to add some sparkle and color to the boardwalk shoot. And remember "It's better to be looked over than overlooked" -Mae West 🤠🩵💜🩷✌️😊💋

Be yourself! Nobody else is qualified!

Happy Thursday from the fabulous NJ Shore!

This morning after the sunrise on the boardwalk shoot, I traded another free ticket win for a fresh chance at a jackpot. Keep sending those vibes! It's gonna happen!

Today's check on the birds at Bird Paradise. I was totally distracted by this one who loves attention!

After the sunset shoot, I stopped to parlay a small lottery win the home for hugz for my fav tree friend. She responded with some nice energy and vibes. See gives the vibes for a daring fit! 🌳❤️

It had warmed up to a balmy 34 degrees with wind chill so I just threw on a couple things that worked with the baby doll I slept in a raced to the boardwalk for a shoot! "Don't die wishing you woulda!"

Some thoughts from an all time fav author, Lewis Caroll: "Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality" "Sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast."

I got a nice bonus from one of my consulting clients so I treated myself! Granddaddy always said you can be and do anything you want in life long as nobody gets hurt and it makes you happy. Love what you do, you'll get good at it and you'll never have to worry about whether you can make a living.

A new fit for the holidays!

My Friday the 13th was a wonderful day!

It felt great when a cutie held the door for me today at the store with a "looking good" and a smile today. I then enjoyed sunset on the back porch and am happy with today's out and about experience!

Today was a drizzly day so I did some shopping after picking up some lottery tickets. People were smiling and saying nice things to me even though I was distracted. Then a back porch shoot featuring a fav skirt covered in eyeballs. A gift from my late sweetheart, my eye Dr. and sweet bunny girl.

Finally a day mild enough for a cute fit on the back porch.

Today's visit at Bird Paradise resulted in a clean bill of health for all!
