This is a story of two Boston Terriers. I brought the Christmas toys for my current one home last week and they’ve been in this very accessible place since untouched. My first one searched every single bag that entered the house to see if anything belonged to him. #BostonTerrier #toys

The rest of the first 7 days. Each has some element that I think I did well. #November #watercolor #sunrise

This morning I have put a new chain on the chainsaw. Then I’ve taken it back off and put it on the right way. Cut up a tree and carried it all down to the burn pile where it is on its way to goodbye. This picture was taken between the hours of 5pm and 7am. 😉 #butch #ImTooPrettyToWorkThisHard

Saturday Pet Peeve: sweater, noun a: a knitted or crocheted jacket or pullover b: a heavy jersey worn in ice hockey Notice how neither of those includes hoodie, fleece, sweatshirt, etc.? #sweater #NotAHoodie #PetPeeve

This how everyone plants bulbs, right? Freshly dug, crocus were on sale. Square beside it, daffodils were on sale a few weeks ago. #bulbs #crocus #daffodils #ThisIsNormal

Is emailing a rich people thing? Cause I couldn’t tell you the last time I sent a personal email.

When I see him in January it will be the 10th time over a span of 32 years. So many of these outfits I remember. A memory for every song. #fanilow #barrymanilow #music

Fig tree likes winter about as much as I do. #snow #fig #winterweather

I put my electric blanky on my bed and was just about to call it a night and go snuggle under it when BOOM power’s out. Had a brand new book ready and everything! #snow #powerout #cold

Guess that’s it for the figs this year. #snow #figs #coldweather

So the Senate Dems are going to cave? Color me fucking surprised. SO they upended everyone's lives just so they could give in like the always do. This is why I won't take one bit of shit when I don't vote for them just because.

Good morning, my saints and scholars of the Church of Not Today, Satan. #goldenhour #gay #selfie

Bonfire at Tina’s #BostonTerrier #bonfire

I was going to post these a week at a time but I ran out of this size paper. #NovemberWatercolor #Watercolor #sunrise

First pair of raw denim. Can’t wait to wash them next year! #jeans #rawdenim

My November goal is to take a picture from the same spot every morning and paint the sunrise. This may be one of the best watercolors I’ve ever done. Also, this is just fun for me. No real desire to get significantly better. #watercolor #sunrise

Your majesty. #butterfly #monarch

This piece does something to me. #art #gay #gayart

Why on earth did I decide to watch this again?!? #ThisIsUs #SoEmotional

I’ve spent two hours wondering if I’m having a stroke cause I kept getting a whiff of something I didn’t recognize. Hospital trip averted. I just opened a new deodorant this morning. #ShouldIReallyBeAnAdult

"His eyes will deceive you; they will destroy you. They will take from you your innocence, your pride, and eventually your soul.” #BostonTerrier #halloween

Been making this meatloaf for years and my god it is sooo good. And the next day!!!!!! #meatloaf #dinner

These dogs were spotted taking a group photo in their Halloween costumes. We're impressed by the dog walker's dedication to getting the shot, but that ghost definitely wishes he could actually disappear. 14/10 for all (TT: franklinbarkzoo)

Happy Halloween! 🎃 Get comfy. #BostonTerrier ##Halloween

When you can’t find a sweatshirt so you dig out a 20+ year old one, you might look like a sorority girl who stole her football player boyfriend’s sweatshirt. #COLD #sweatshirt #gay #fitcheck

Let him fade, let him go, Somewhere quiet, soft, and slow. Grant me peace, grant me sleep, Take his drama, dig it deep. You have power, you decide, Who should stay and who should slide. And if mercy’s worth the try Spare me, Lord... Let him die. #LesMisérables

No I don’t know why your mums keep drying out. Why do you ask? #BostonTerrier #mums

When ya gotta do some speakifying. #awards #speaking #gay #publicspeaking

Men need to smile more. And not that “I’m smiling for the camera” smile, but that “I’m doing something I fully enjoy” smile. You’d be prettier if you smiled. But seriously those smiles just light up your face. #men #smile

The watercolor is out of practice and struggling. #watercolor #mothman

My consistent soapbox about this country is if you are willing to work a full time job, you should make enough to afford a house, a vehicle, and at least 1 vacation a year. And I don’t care if you never work a day in your life, you should be provided food. No questions asked. #mytedtalk

Tonight’s dinner is the world famous secret family recipe of Chicken and Other Shit Stew. #stew #cleaningoutthefreezer #BostonTerrier

Am I the only one with multiple bags of chicken bones in the freezer cause one day I’ll make stock? TODAY is the day! #chickenstock #chicken #slowcooker #stock

Whoever lives in this house needs an intervention! #BostonTerrier #halloween

Sunrise #sunrise #WestVirginia

I kinda like this QoR watercolor paint. Anyone else have thoughts? Color: Phthalo Green - Blue shade #watercolor #phthalogreen

Too dry for great fall color this year, but amazing sunrise this morning. #autumn #fall #river #WestVirginia

One sock down. #menwhoknit #knitsky #socks

In case you are in the hammock a bottle of wine one tonight

I need to move to a place with a good country/western bar where I can saddle up to the bar every night “I’ve been trying to get over you. And I’ve been spending time alone.” At full volume. #lifegoals #country #sadsongs #wine

As a political scientist, when COVID hit I said I wished I’d live 100 more years to read how it changed civilization. Today, seeing these incredible No Kings protests, I feel that again! Hope future students study inflatable protesters the way I studied MLK & civil rights. #nokings #fucktrump

That old black magic has me in its spell That old black magic that you weave so well #halloween #skulls #spooky

My grandmother taught me to knit. Found this old swatch of hers and it reminded me that she twisted her purl stitches and I did too for years. I love this little reminder. #knitsky #MenWhoKnit #swatch #ShowMeYourKnits

Figs are soooooo good when perfectly ripe and warm from the sun. #figs #fruit #snacks

I’m one of those iguanas that falls out of a tree anytime it drops below 75! #COLD #BringBackSummer

Flu protection initiated. Had the COVID one a few weeks ago. #vaccination #vaccinate #flu

Therapy said I had to come up with 5 dating nonnegotiables and I think she’ll be happy with this list: 1️⃣ No Crocs 2️⃣ No scraggly or white beards 3️⃣ No dirty hands (unless you just quit working) 4️⃣ No feet 5️⃣ Must be the driver Apparently I’m single for a reason. #dating #nonnegotiables #gay

Federal government out here saying “I will gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today.”

Now that’s an honest 7.5 inches. #MenWhoKnit #Knitsky #ShowMeYourKnits

Did I say I was done playing?!? #BostonTerrier #playtime
