she/her/hers. Always cold, frequently hangry, seldom clever, never fun. Opinions half-baked and own. Trying in every sense.
Humble and good food. 💛

Potato leek soup making the kitchen smell great.

Everyone else in the house is having a gentle afternoon snooze. I wish I could quiet my mind and my cough enough to join them.

Zelda had a major senility moment tonight. Even though she is my first baby and still baby-sized, I am having to recognize she is an old lady, and every day we get with her is precious.

If you are lucky enough to have an old cat or old dog, give them a smooch on their noggin for us, please.

Just perfectly normal Zelda things…

Still sick. Still being watched over by my attentive nurse and interspecies bestie.

Some loves are stronger than beastly colds and coughing fits.

I am up with a middle-of-the-night coughing fit, which woke the Queen from her precious slumber.

Sorry, Zelda. Also, why are you sleeping in the carrier?

I have been miserably sick since Saturday night with a wicked cold, and Minne has put herself in charge of my care. It’s one of the most endearing things about her — if given the opportunity, she would never have more than five feet separating us at any given time. 🥹🩷

If you see this, post an album cover with a motor vehicle on it.

Interspecies besties cuddle time is among the very best of times.

Minne, Goblin, and I are snuggling up while I should be prepping for my Tuesday book group. Sigh.

Here’s to irresponsible Sunday decisions and warm cuddle buddies!

Oh hi.

My spouse and I wanted to show our disapproval of the current regime, so we exercised our First Amendment rights yesterday. The waving honks to flipped birds ratio was about 10:1.

Sunday soup day, friends. (Wish I could share the smells!) May you be nourished and comforted in the week to come.

My tiniest house panther can’t help mauling my hair. 🥹

Soup!

Sharing a little nourishing, comforting soup base veggie ASMR. Humble food cooked with love. And a lot of garlic.

I know things are rough out there, friends. Be gentle with yourselves and one another. #bloomscrolling

Unclench jaw. Take a deep breath. Go out and do all the good you can in the capacity you have. #bloomscrolling

This video of Minne’s whiffle-purr is dedicated to @anxiousrage.blacksky.app and the quest for a better kind of bot

We’re trying a photo shoot. Very clearly, neither of us is a professional.

Stirring the pot today. Just this one though. Better for my health.

Offering up a small respite of beauty for anyone else who might need it today. Peace, gentleness, and kindness be with you in those moments you need them most, friends.
