From earlier this year: I had to get the hawk from my roo, who was bigger and reasonably upset about this one dropping in. It got released and went on its way.

I wrote this as a homage to Jurgen Fuchs and Wolfgang Templin. In psychological operations these things are still used today as destabilization tactics. Remember, folks, never assume anything and keep moving.

Echo - A Poem

Zebras are not horses,
Every shrink would tell you that,
Receipts dressed so only you can witness
(Italics) Sorry, this isn't history (End Italics)
Except we're living what will be
talked about; what was and is!
Zigzag with me now, avoiding clinical dismissal,
U are not going to believe this,
Not that I expected you would:
Gods 'n devils are nodes on a wire!

If you know how puppets
Dance
Everything gets
A little easier to map
So much as it can be

Out here, an anvil
Forged at the drop, not forgotten

Reason is not lost to what-
Ever you think is true!
Fragments of reality
Embracing the oligarch's
Revolution
Encouraging things like a
nazghoul would, yet still
Can't catch those
Evolving!

Yes, my pattern recognition runs hot all the time. Green POP!

Five full leaves, and a small sixth leaf clover - this one is a double shoot in the race for the spring green pop.

A four leaf clover and the big double-shoot - you can see stem scale.

Shiba woof time! Radar, on the couch with his squeak toy, is doing ham pose. Meanwhile, Witcher is looking ... school of wolfish because he hates photos.

I love the Frost Punk game. The scenarios can be intensely frustrating. Still, after numerous tries and figuring out the game mechanics, I got my bloody damn sticker.

Yesterday I woke up to chaos of the lost snow bibs before an ice skating venture. Stress levels HIGH. I helped get that sorted & everyone shipped out to venture properly attired. Me? This is vacation, so I roasted a smol duck & played Frost Punk.

Mark the turn. The promise that spring, no matter how distant, will arrive... Happy Solstice! ✌😈🖤

A snow-laden forest path stretches ahead beneath brilliant blue winter sky, heavy with fresh snowfall that weighs down the evergreen boughs on either side. Golden sunlight filters through the snow-covered pines and spruces, creating a luminous tunnel effect where amber light meets blue shadow. The path itself shows recent passage - a single track winding between the bent trees into deeper woods. In the foreground, Witcher the black shiba inu stands sentinel, his dark silhouette stark against the white snow, red collar bright as winter berries. He faces down the path as if reading something in the distance, perfectly still in that particular dog-awareness that says "I know something you don't yet." The scene captures the liminal quality of winter solstice - that precise moment between the year's deepest darkness and the slow return of light, where every snow-weighted branch holds its breath before releasing, where the cold is absolute but the promise of renewal gleams like warm amber through the trees.

The dogs behaving AND using the couch properly... It was only momentary, so no worries. Back to dogcat antics shortly after.

I bought these dragon bookmark things as stocking stuffers for the kids for Yule. Also I went back and got myself some because I was so enamored with them. TAKE MONEY & GIVE ME DEEZ. 😅

Northern light colors in the night sky over the house tonight, blaring even through cloudcover. Greens, yellows, pinks and purples...

This is just some of this years four+ leaf collection. The rest were gifted (many times to children bugging me for a little extra luck, lol), hidden in books, lent to grief, ritual elements requested, accidentally got wadded up, and some just left to be admired.

Another clover to add to the collection and make the olds worried I am strange... "Why do you think-" Me: "In accordance with the old witch, I have a relationship with death that does not seem normal."

"I don't know what to do or make." Me: "...I want a shoe rack so i can stop ripping off my toenails on the setup by the hall." In total it cost $3.75 for the plans, some salvaged lumber, & a pile of patience. So, he got a project & i got a shoe rack that, hopefully, won't retraumatize me. Win. 😈

Went to run dogs and was just in time to grab another toad outta the dog yard, interrupting a potential wee death. Toad hunkered down in my hand & then kept turning its head to follow where my partner's form was moving. It had to be watchful, to stay alive against 'bigs' in the backyard.

All my skill and artistry dies around frosting. Make it nutella frosting and truly just fml. This unholy thing looks like a literal pile of shit & the frosting behaves like a non-newtonian fluid. 💀 The good news is it just tastes like sugar and nutella so the kids won't care.

CatDog Mode, all of Witcher the shiba inu.

Witcher the shiba inu peeking over thr sectional couch. Room is heavy with plants as decor and accent on shelves by a window and in the far corner all made from wood, a bird cage shrouded to the right, and bone skull on wall, two ceiling fans, one off and one on. Two competing light flares fog the picture, one blue light from the window and another warmer gold light from the ceiling fan fixture.

Witcher the shiba inu standing on the back of the sectional with plant stands in the background with plants on it. Peace lilies, snake plants, pothos, and a philodendren ring of fire.

Witcher the shiba inu showing off his doggy butt end. Power stance on the dog who is looking over his left shoulder at attention. Witcher is a kuro or black shiba inu with tan dipped paws. His coat in summer thin and he is well muscled, lith and yet solid. Muzzle, ears, and mask are sharp, tail is curled.

Custom plant stand my partner is making.

A custom-built wooden plant stand with multiple angled shelves and triangular support structures, positioned on a gravel surface in a backyard.
