You know — like the Craig Arnold poem.

I love my wife, my cats, women’s basketball, and being a Michigander. The rest, as Nabokov said, is rust and stardust.

My simple tribute to the lion-hearted Andrea Gibson. They saved my life.

I guess each post can only have 4 images, so this is a 2 post thread.

I feel this is how they go through life.

My parents' beloved dog, Gracie, died today. Mom adopted G when she finished cancer treatment: a promise to her own future, a belief she would be here. And Gracie joyfully lived with her into that promise for 15 years.

I am devastated.

Somehow, ChatGPT knew exactly what to say.
Kind of amazing.

We have spent the past week in Croatia. It’s been beyond words: beautiful, tender, warm, hopeful — and it helps to see the whole world is rooting for our people to make it through this current nightmare. They know it’s not us. I feel restored and reminded that goodness still exists.

My wife made me a snacklebox for #Unrivaled viewing. She is the best.

My 15-yo cat had multiple dental surgeries & it’s making eating difficult unless he can push his face against the food. His 13-yo brother has been going from bowl to bowl, pushing the food to the sides immediately & then coaxing 15-yo to eat. It’s working! Such good boys.

We don’t deserve animals.🩵
