Happy #caturday! No worries, Luna Kitty, I didn’t need that track pad. It’s more important that you enjoy your nap. ♥️

Saw a tiny Pomeranian rocking the child seat of a shopping cart at Wegman’s today. She’s six months old and her name is Enoki and she is very soft. Made my day. 🥹

some more signs at yesterday's #NoKings protest in NYC
a handmade sign at the No Kings protest in NYC says "Love your neighbors - don't kidnap them" at the No Kings protest in NYC, a woman standing in the rain holds up a wet, ratty piece of cardboard that says "My President is as shitty as this sign" at the No Kings march in NYC, it's raining and a crowd of people wearing wet raincoats and hoods hold up signs that say "End Trump's Authoritarian Bullshit!" and "Abolish Ice" and my favorite: "They want 1939 Germany - Let's give them 1789 France" at the No Kings march in NYC, a sign covered in clear plastic and raindrops is written like a MasterCard ad: Private Jet: $400MM; Crypto Scams: $200MM; Dinners at Mar-a-Lago: $1MM; Buying the President: Priceless

some signs at yesterday's #NoKings protest in NYC
handmade sign at the No Kings protest march in NYC is a spoof of Magritte's "ceci n'est pas un pipe" where Donald Trump's head replaces the bowl and underneath are the words "Ceci n'est pas une roi" ("this is not a king") I didn't have the heart to tell them that it should be "un roi" but maybe it was deliberate haha handmade sign at the No Kings protest in rainy NYC says "They're eating the checks! They're eating the balances!" 1 of 2: at the No King's protest in rainy NYC, a person has adorned their clear dome umbrella with the words "tiny hands, tiny feet, all he does..." 2 of 2: the rest of the words adorning a clear dome umbrella"..."is golf and tweet." The person holding this umbrella is wearing an old-fashioned admiral hat in the shape of a TACO (Trump Always Chickens Out)

Stonecrop sweater, pattern by #AndreaMowry, yarn by Spincycle and La Bien Aimee. It’s been chilling on sleeve island since summer 2020 😬 #knitsky #showmeyourknits #colorwork #strandedknitting 🧶
A half-finished hand-knit sweater lays on a white counter. It is dark blue with multicolored stripes. One day it will have sleeves, but today is not that day.

Went to the Westminster Kennel Club Agility Competition Thingy at the Javits Ctr yesterday. My heart is full. 😍🥰
A black and white border collie is grinning and happy because he is a good boy who just rocked the agility course! A Shiba Inu dog is happily leaping over a beam on the agility course! A faaaabulous cocker spaniel named Elvis poses for fans on an opulent purple carpet. A blond woman half-kneeling on the floor behind him gazes at him admiringly.
