There are two times when a dogs compressed lifespan is most evident. When they go from puppy to dog in a matter of months, and when they go from older to elderly in a matter of weeks. 💕🐶

Now now wait… I visited a few of those sites and they had big banners* saying it is the “radical left” who are at fault. It couldn’t possibly be the GOP or Administration! 🫠
(*so wildly and completely inappropriate to have these blame banners on govt sites)

I had to take my girls to the vet for an eldercare checkup today. I feel seen. 😆😆😆
Also our vet offers free coffee in paper to-go cups that have a paper lid! Fantastic!

I’m not good with the horror genre of fiction. I get nightmares easily. Yet, I rolled the dice & preordered this book because I came across @adamtots.bsky.social on Twitter (back then) & I loved the stuff he posted. Even the stuff that made it hard for me to sleep. So, good luck to me!

I know @kbspangler.com wasn’t calling me out. She doesn’t know me. She doesn’t know the bricks have been mocking me for months.
But her “15min at a time” post was bricks. Clearly a sign.
Now that the primary pile is stacked I can gather the bricks from around the yard to join them.

The 🐶🐶🐶 took us to the ag-field in the center of our hamlet for our walk today.
It’s planted w/oats this year. It’s been planted w/corn in recent yrs. I guess i need a new name for “the corn walk”.
I don’t believe I’ve ever seen an oat field up-close before. We even came across a bear bed. 😊🐻

It’s time to collect some (invasive) mustard greens for a frittata-like family recipe. Incredibly warm memories of Grandpa returning from foraging & Grandma cooking it up.

There’s something satisfying about getting the peel off in one piece.

A year before we got her, Tina weighed 36lbs. She’s at 26. She should be at 20-22. I think if she loses the last bit she’ll need some kind of skin removal surgery. Such a little potato.

Does anyone know what this is at the bottom of the screen? I thought it was accessibility ➡️ live speech but that it turned off. I even toggled it to be sure. No idea what it is, where it came from, or how it got turned on. I need to make it go away! Help!

We have a new tiny toad friend. Perhaps a 1/4 of the size of our other toad friend. I had the dog beds leaning against the porch wall so the wouldn’t get wet in the storm, and when I laid one down there it was. Hello good morning how do you do.
