It was so nice to get back to the marsh before sunset even if I didn't shoot much. et voila: a trail of Canada gooses and a Cedar Waxwing

The past nine months have been an intense and focused effort to get this book published, my first ever. Not being at my laptop ten hours a day with Gemma Sawyer will be odd, but I do need the break. Thanks to all who have followed.along and supported this project. Pre-sale 9/21. #FREEDOMLAND

Sam Neill, Dichen Lachman, and Yvonne Strahovski are part of the now confirmed cast of ‘The Legend of Zelda’. It will be Sam Neill’s final role. (via DEADLINE)

This is the origin smoke we are experiencing, not the Spokane complex. The trade-off is that our temps were not able to hit above 100 as predicted. Small win. Gratitude to all the fire responders both local and those crews from outside the PNW and even the US, who are here fighting for us.

Our AQI in the pdx metro area has progressively grown worse since mid-morning. We're in the 'unhealthy for sensitive people' category at present, but it feels petty to complain when so many in WA/OR have already lost so much. Our hearts are with them. This evening’s sunset is eerily beautiful.

I had decided to let my bangs go long thinking it could conceivably give me a somewhat more chic look. I just checked the mirror and saw Daryl Dixon staring back at me. A fine line between chic and shock at my age apparently. Making a salon appt for tomorrow.

These sports folks slaying proper grammar is my pet peeve of the year. FIFA "are" corrupt. Aaarrghh!!!! No, it is FIFA "IS" corrupt!! The object of the sentence is ONE organization, team, or Country and thus requires a singular verb, not plural. That's so dumb, with a "b".

In case you forgot: "The U.S. team is the most successful team in international women's soccer, winning four Women's World Cup titles (1991, 1999, 2015, and 2019), five Olympic gold medals (1996, 2004, 2008, 2012, and 2024), nine CONCACAF W Championship titles, and one CONCACAF W Gold Cup title."

It's so incredibly unfair that after a lifetime of sacrifice and contribution, the reward is sagging skin, thin hair and failing senses. I think aging should begin reversing on one's 50th birthday, so that by 70, it really is the new 30.

When my friend/writing partner, Brittain and I were neighbors, back in the day, we shared a leaning towards rebelliousness. So, we chose to NOT observe Taco Tuesdays, but rather, a day of our own...Noodles & Booze! That was everything from ramen to pasta and sake to cocktails or wine. I miss her. 🤙🏻

I do truly love the Scottish people. My Mother had a quarter in her dna. I would move there in a heartbeat if they ever declare independence, and I'm happy, albeit fascinated, with their amazement at discovering Waffle House; but not in this lifetime will I go near an IrnBru again. rusty nails.

This is my first shot at publishing, so I do not know; at what point do you feel secure in feeling that you shouldn't make any further revisions to the manuscript?? I'm on version 127... too much? JK, but this is the third and it's beginning to feel like a complete rewrite. 😬 #booksky #author

I think there are a lot of folks in my generation who would agree that City Lights (rip Ferlinghetti) was the best book store, back in our day. I've added Powell's to my list now also. Do you have a fav' indie shop? #booksky

If you enjoy watching YT, give this channel a look. These are my friends, Lida & Carla. They have a great story. They are currently overlanding Africa in their restomod Landy named Pango, bringing awareness to the plight of the most trafficked animal on earth as they travel. Tell 'em I said "hi"!

Lisa died Saturday. She was my cousine but more like a little sister because we were closer in age. She did not tell me she was sick. She did not tell anyone except her mom. I sat through myriad emotions yesterday, vascillating between being truly pissed at her and heart break. Farewell, cher. 💔
