Face like an apple 🍎

Took me a while but I finally drew a little portrait of Momo to frame and put on my wall. She had a really piercing & deliberate stare so I tried to depict that in my drawing. It was done with colour pencils & pen.

This is a spider in my garden who I have watched grown over a couple months. Seems happy where it is.

Placing the rocks in my garden and I accidentally moved this baby’s house. He was not happy with me one bit!

It’s getting to the point where I genuinely have no idea how many baby blue tongue skinks are in my garden and also I have to watch where I step

The harp frightened him at first but I think he’s getting used to it as long as I play softly for now

After losing my dear Momo I wasn’t ready for another cat. However, I can’t say no to an animal in need. My grandma fed and caught this stray and my mum wants him, but she needs me to care for him until she can get him. So for now, I have a new cat. Vet visit booked Monday.

All I do lately is work and lie in bed

Went for an evening walk yesterday and came across this gorgeous wallaby

My garden is a paradise, have you ever seen something more beautiful

I’m finding so many ways I altered my daily habits to accomodate Momo. The position I slept in, where I sat, what I planted, the furniture I had & placement, little rituals for when I went out and when I came back home. It’s very hard to break those patterns after 13 years.

After 13 years, yesterday I lost my beautiful sweet little girl Momo. RIP Momo ❤️

Face update! It’s my face

If she hasn’t seen me in an hour or so she gets so excited when she finally does see me that she meow-screams

The skink came back to eat Momo’s cat food and I got right up to its face for a pic and the flash went off

In tears having discovered that earlier this year my late dad took in & housed a schizophrenic friend who had nowhere else to go. Even lent his car so he could make a living driving for uber (the car ended up in a big accident and was written off). I found out because I received

I found this frog in my drainpipe. He looks like he’s ready to grant me 3 wishes

I spend a lot of alone time in this room

Two days later and Mr greedy guts is back for more. This time I felt bold enough to get right up close to take a picture so you can see his blue tongue in all its glory

This was Momo while her food was being plundered

I hadn’t seen any lizards bust in from outside to steal cat food in so long that I started thinking perhaps they forgot how. Nope! An old friend from a year ago let itself inside today

Goodnight Mr Hoots

Heard a big commotion outside with the ravens so I went out to investigate. There were dozens of them and they had attacked an owl & it was on the ground, still alive. I rushed & grabbed a towel for it, but then it quietly passed away

Imagine me serenading you in here

Let’s lie down on the couch with mommy

I just spotted a smaller & unfamiliar blue tongue skink in my garden. This one has a subtle green shade to it

If I crouch to pet my cat while wearing a long dress, sometimes she will run underneath it

Today in my backyard

Resting Eastern European Sadface

She’s tired after a long hard day of sleeping under the bench in various directions

I hadn’t seen my gorgeous friend in so long but he made an appearance today

Today’s episode: Momo enjoys the sunshine

Returning home from travelling intestate to arrange dads funeral with the feeling that I need to do more with my time, so I contacted my old harp teacher and she said “my door has and will always be open to you.” I start lessons again in February 🥲

My dad suddenly passed away yesterday. I will have to travel interstate to sort out his affairs.

I’ve seen hundreds of people weeping for the Whitehouse on this app but barely a mention of the Palestinian genocide funded by said Whitehouse (by both parties)

Here is one month of progress of me growing a hydrangea in my backyard. I’m tentatively optimistic because it has to get through the scorching oz summer 🌞

Night shift tonight and I absolutely do not feel up for it 😭

Big boy!!

A day of kookaburras

Late night harp practice 🪉🌙✨

Momo and skink morning greeting ritual

That’s right, I’ve got my eye on you

Having coffee in my garden and realising I’m always being watched

bouncing on it in a way that conveys that i kinda hate you

I think a lot of men I come across irl are lowkey scared of me

Guy in my neighbourhood who I nicknamed Stanislav 5 years ago because he looks exactly like this just told me his name is Mitchell

Felt cute in this dress today
