Some things come undone. Like the slats on this bench when one piece of wood warps away from the others. Not sure I’m going anywhere with this. lol. Just an observation. But if you feel compelled to use this bench back as a metaphor, I support you.

Cold weather roses. Is it me or did clarity show up in the light this morning?! #gratitude #bloomscrolling #september #new #roses

Morning sunburst. Saying goodbye to this cottage on the lake where I’ve been resting, reading, and writing for four days.

Nothing to see here. Just a big Queen bee mating with a mature male?! She’s so much larger. Such mysterious creatures. #bumblebees #bees #mating #bloomscrolling #eastcoastkin

Late season roses. Are they any less beautiful because they’ve bloomed late in the season? #bloomscrolling #eastcoastkin

It’s been a long time in the making, but I can finally call myself a bonafide author. Thanks to High Marsh Press, designer Emma Neilson, and the judge for the 2025 Deborah Wills Chapbook Contest, Judy Halebsky. #writerslife #poems #smallpress #microprint #foraging #letterpress #newbrunswick

Walking home from work yesterday I left the trail after an encounter with a man who got off his bike, held his back with his hands as if injured, waved me to stop walking, and asked the time. I kept walking and shared the time on my way by. Looking back and front realizing we were alone

#bloomscrolling #eastcoastkin #mountain #hikes Not sure what this beauty is but I hiked 16 km in 28 degree heat to see it. Some king of Heather maybe?

I spent the weekend off grid, unplugged, and analog. Read a book start to finish, added some words to a ms and came back home. The digital detox was needed. I’m more aware now of my energy usage, waste I produce, water I use. conserve, recycle, small footprint mindset.

Books I’ve finished in the last week. Both harrowing reads. But I’m glad the authors found the strength to write them. #books

I find my friend’s hands evocative. But that shows my privilege: It’s not painful for me to hold the phone and snap a photo. #photography #hands #arthritis #age #friendship

One of my favourite photos of all time from early parenting days, those long, long days entertaining a toddler, when a great full-body hug was the only and best reward. #parenting #hugs #toddler #family
