Gretel with her green eyes. The dogs give her wide berth. #catsofbluesky

Gretel, queen of the counter. #catsofbluesky

Our ridiculous dogs. Check the side eye in the second pic. #dogsofbluesky #belgianmalinois

The board has questions. Like, where is dinner? #dogsofbluesky

Me: Let's go ice skating! So much fun!
Also me:

Our youngest was the entire viola section for her string ensemble, so it's like she's soloing. I could listen all day.

Sarah says she wants you to throw her ball. #dogsofbluesky #belgianmalinois

Scenes from a quiet birthday weekend. #backbayinn #losososcalifornia

Linda and I are celebrating our November birthdays at the coast again this year. No fab sunset in my pic, but still beautiful. #backbayinn #morrobay

Linda and I had a short but fun little hike down to the SJRT this afternoon with the dogs. Refreshing! #nationalhikingday #dogs

The TNR post. Catching all 5 over the Labor day weekend was a task. Mama is the fourth cat from the foreground.

In September I managed to TNR 5 feral cats, a mama and her four kittens that were living in or near the bushes in our front yard. They don't come close any more (lol), but we see them still around, mostly active at night. Our doorbell cam picked up four of them last night by our front door.

Sharing one of my favorite poems of all time, just because I'm feeling it rn. #poetry

I am no longer sure I know how to deal with the larger world issues out there. I find myself engaging less and retreating more. I offer these healing pond vibes if anyone else feels as I do.

Sarah says hi!
