Really enjoying Woodworking by @emilystjams.bsky.social
I love a small town setting with interesting characters. Bonus points for the Our Town subplot.

Thanks to my local library for having multiple print copies!
Paper copy of the novel “Woodworking” by Emily St. James, the cover art shows a pile of classroom chairs. It’s a library copy from Houston Public Library

Snow! In Houston!! About 3 inches at my house and still snowing ❄️❄️❄️
A tape measure sticking out of a snow-covered patio, showing about 3 inches of snow accumulation. A small sliver of swimming pool is seen in the background.

“Joy doesn’t betray but sustains activism. And when you face a politics that aspires to make you fearful, alienated, and isolated, joy is a fine initial act of insurrection.”
- @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social , whose words are a balm

So many great passages and I’m only on page 24

No thoughts only tummy
A medium-sized dog lays on her back with her tummy exposed. You can see her black and tan face with a somewhat blank expression, implying no thoughts. Her tan paws are up slightly and folded over. She invites you to come rub her belly please.

Speaking of newspapers, the paper version of @theonion.com has been a major hit at my house, especially with my 10-year-old
Someone holding up the paper copy of The Onion (the satirical newspaper), obscuring their face. All you can see is the back ad: “Northern Indiana Children’s Casino” as well as part of the front which features a headline about Taylor Swift being arrested on weapons charges

To cleanse your timeline: It’s my dog’s 7th birthday! She and her sister are having fun playing. Both are wonderful rescue babies fostered by @blueheronfarm.bsky.social
A black and tan dog playing with a black and brown and white dog who is wearing a birthday hat that looks like an upside down ice cream cone (because it is her birthday). Both dogs are a little bit blurry because they are in motion.

Found a friend while watering the plants
Top down view of a tiny green anole lizard sitting on a leaf. It’s in a pot of purslane that has a few bright magenta blooms.

See a tortie share a (dilute) tortie
A mostly grey cat with a few areas of light orange, making a dilute tortoiseshell pattern. She has yellow-green eyes and is laying down with her head toward you and paws barely crossed.

And so it begins! Partial eclipse here in Houston, TX. Nice and sunny day with minimal clouds so far.
Viewed and photo taken with eclipse glasses
Partial eclipse with a small upper portion of the sun blocked by the moon. Picture taken through eclipse glasses so the background is black like night
