Why do people post that they're going out in public sick with no mask? Do they feel no shame? Is it like a 'poor me, I'm sick' thing?

Another great thing about the coastalmainebotanicalgardens were the trolls scattered throughout the woods and hiking trails around the gardens. Made of natural materials, they are meant to decompose back into the landscape overtime. We found them all!

11 years later, we came back to Acadia National Park for less than 24 hours and a few stops on the “quiet side” of Mt Desert Island.

Very first time RVing, we rented this sleeper van for ten days. It sure is cozy!

Sorry that your body hates you and harmless foods and plant bits. There’s not a lot you can do about it besides avoid early childhood infections & eat a wide range of foods early. If you didn’t do that your choices are antihistamines and avoidance forever. #BookReview #bookreport

I enjoy understanding how to make bread, because if we decide on a Saturday night that Sundays dinner would go better on a baguette, I can have baguettes ready by midday Sunday.

The vegetables may be abundant, but by mid September, the northern organic garden is burdened by unusual beetles, flies, and molds. I know without the long and early frost, these pests would put even more pressure on the home garden. Not looking forward to that climate future.

I felt very happy reading this book being reminded of the interconnectedness and impermanence of all things. As the chapters went on, however, it read like a textbook of increasingly dense philosophical concepts. #BookReview The Heart of the Buddhas Teaching

Today I spend MULTIPLE hours in meditation, ate four meals, and still got 14k steps. It went by in the blink of an eye. Meditation time-compression is real.

Just before bed I read about the three bodies of the Buddha and then had a dream about a husky puppy named Kaya. What does that mean?

I'm reflecting on the porch with a cool breeze on my feet, listening to a cricket, and noticing how few birds sing in the morning now.

The dogs have been sick with a stomach bug. One then the other. Last night was the first almost-whole-night's sleep I've had in two weeks.

Everyone I know is absolutely exhausted. Fighting for a paycheck, chasing the promotion, or propping up the family member who can’t function on their own anymore.

Wildly entertaining, but spotted a few errors. She chickened out on covid-is-airborne, and I’m concerned that there is no bibliography in a book making so many life or death medical claims. #BookReview ‘99 Ways to Die and How to Avoid Them.’

It’s funny how artist have been using much the same set of tools for 4000 years to work, and we got stuck with like, Adobe creative suite.

Do I know any infectious disease doctors near Yale? I have a family member out there who is really sick with an infection they got in India four months ago and they’ve been waiting at the ER for 6 hrs, oof. Multiple antibiotics have not helped and we are worried about sepsis. This seems … scary?

World life expectancy in 1900 was 32-years-old, so no, you can’t just “live as people did 200 years ago” and forgo modern medicine and sanitation.
