Happy Halloween!

That's Jasper, who might murder me later.

Good morning! I wish I could go to a #NoKings protest today but I have to work, and deliver wedding flowers.

It the aggregate of our actions which creates change!

Sending you all some flowers if you’re at a protest.

Oh no, glad they figured it out, keep us posted and I hope you are feeling better soon. Rio's is sending you good vibes!

My last Mystic Lake swim of 2025. I have never swam in October, but I had to take advantage of the 80 degree day.

This morning - was pretty angry that the 77 bus wasn't coming for 30 mins, but, while I was walking down Mass Ave, I managed to see a bald eagle 🦅 so...day made!

My friends know that there's nothing I love more than political campaigns and oysters.

Attended a gathering for @grahamformaine.bsky.social. He’s a charismatic, authentic speaker, and who leads with his working class values. Impressed, the real deal.

Hey #Uglydogs! Sending you some flowers on this Friday afternoon. Hope you all have a relaxing weekend planned!

Rio is on the mend!

According to Jasper, Rio has gotten waaaay too much attention lately.

Hey #Uglydogs! Rio is healing steadily, but still on a lot of meds that make him very tired so we did this today. Grateful for ever minute with him.

Big news, my dear friends, #uglydogs! Rio was sprung from his cell (actually a cozy vet hospital bed) today!!! He's home, with a lot of meds, prescription food, puppy pee pads and a cone of shame. He's home a day early, which is great because the hospital bill will be a bit lower.

No words. Accept I was crying hysterically 5 mins before this photo.

So I am still undaunted, but tired, and will lean into hope that some time soon I can enjoy a more stable, less complicated time of life. With my dear Rio, and my weird-ass giant cat Jasper, of course.

Rio is out of surgery, and they removed 5 kidney stones. could have complications but he is resting comfortably at the vet hospital. Honestly the two surgical vets saved his life.

Grateful to friends who helped today and the #uglydogs . Hoping his recovery will be smooth, he is my ❤️dog.

To my #uglydog friends - please send good vibes prayers, we are at the emergency vet right now. Our dear Rio has a urinary blockage, it looks like emergency surgery is needed. We all are very stressed.

I wasn’t able to attend the protest in Boston so I joined the protest in Chapel Hill, NC. Met some great people, there were awesome signs.

No, you (the @democrats.org ) absolutely cannot explain something to me, me, who worked on the ground talking to voters for four years. I really think I should explain something to you.

Also, your condescending subject line is not appreciated. Who writes this shit?

Boston shows up!

GM! We have about 7" inches of snow this morning, and only 10" of dog!

And damn, those #Detroit restaurants!

Great architecture and thrift stores too.

Pewabic Pottery was mind blowing. Started in 1903 by Mary Perry Stratton and her business partner, I reflect of the role of the artisan worker who build significant parts of the grand ideal of the US. The Guardian Building is well worth a visit, a preeminent example or American Art Deco.

Michigan Central grand entry way.
