Young Paul Bunyan, a gopher, has been perched atop the old lilac stump like a walrus this morning, surveying the land. I love him.

Getting creative with Mom’s senior living. (Kidding, fun at the new storage unit.)

The Lunch Date

Yesterday was a long day of waiting as my childhood home was cleared out “broom-clean” by professionals. When I arrived to walk the empty house, I found an old bestie from 3rd grade had evaded the sweep to wait for me. After all this time.

New critters spicing it up tonight! #yardtheatre

Ellie is enjoying a second puppyhood lately. She is blind and olden and loving it up. xo

🎶 “Hoppin’ down the bunny trail…” I’ve never seen this happen and always wanted to. Big Bunny seemed to want to grant my wish and Little Bunny was game. Amazing. I love them so.

Bernadette’s been doing some work on the house. Again.

This is my dear friend, Rob. He showed up three years ago and patiently taught me that he’d like raisins on demand. I just love him. #robin #raisins #friend

Sliced hard-boiled egg on beefsteak rye, in repose, with a side of white cheddar. #sandwich #lunch #whatsup

I LOVE THIS BOOK. On my second read and I never do that. A lot of holding it to the chest while feels go through. Kid-me is way less lonely for Neko having shared her world with us. Read it today, if you like. I will be. xo 💪🇺🇦🦫 #theharderifightthemoreiloveyou #nekocase #memoir #hardscrabble #gifted
