Settling into our new life in Belfast has been rocky (immigration is hard), but I couldn't imagine a better place - or a better fellow traveler - for this new adventure.
And we've had such a warm welcome from everyone we've met. @witchhunthistorian.bsky.social
Statue of queen Victoria before the Belfast city hall building, with a seagull on her head. Two awkward historians in front of a curved glass greenhouse with cloudy skies. Dark stone corner building with carving and pointed arches on the roof. Modern sign for a coffee shop on the door.

We lost our Evie just three weeks ago today. She was such a good girl.
Very grey-faced brindle pitbull sitting in a car. Very good doggo sitting like a human in her person's lap.

It's D&D night!
Section of a table with dungeons and dragons paraphernalia - a corner of a character sheet, a roll box, 5 sets of dice in various colors, and a hand in the background getting ready to roll.

Post the last photo of your dog in your gallery (no cheating).
A slightly chubby light brindle dog laid on her side, decidedly in the way, with her little tanned belly showing.

I guess I'll take a break, then.

Maybe I'll get more done when the lizard makes its afternoon window appearance.
Fuzzy cat with no shame shows her belly and demands head rubs in the middle of the desk workspace.
