Start of the semester reading always includes @biblioracle.bsky.social

Spotted in the wild: the elusive Book Shelf Lion in his characteristic hunting dangle #mainecooncat #orangemainecoon #bookshelfcat #shelfie

Greetings also from Ivy, who can’t B2B Huxley because they live in the same home, so she just sets very strong boundaries.

Huxley says, “Welcome to BlueSky, Jolene!”

The view outside my window yesterday morning #lakeeffect #snowdump #southtownslife #snowband

It’s withers-deep to a Cattle Dog out here in the Southtowns of WNY. #winterishere #lakeeffect

Some of us who don’t have kids but who do have a real life Bluey dog also just want to see the damn balloon!

Huxley is a big fan of Lily posts.

Anyone who is trying to understand the election results and why rural communities voted as they did, should read Wendell Berry’s writings on agriculture, specifically The Unsettling of America.

Dog rivalries are real!! My girl, Brynja, did not like a Bichon named Sienna in our agility training group. To this day, Bryn barks incessantly at any small, white dog.

How am I supposed to leave the house or do anything adulty when all of us are chilling on the couch together?

I took yesterday to recharge after a Thursday full of meetings (one of which was about the future of the campus I teach at 🤯) so today is grocery shopping, leaf raking, hiking with the dog, and swinging by my local stationary shop for some cards and stickers. Self-care Saturday.
