Just trying to understand the world I’m living in. I have 3 bird feeders AND a birdbath- that should tell you everything about where I am emotionally. 🦉
Some special person keeps reporting me on 🧵 for what idk. Cat & yard content? The occasional warranted jab at govt? This is my 3rd time. I’m wondering if there’s a 5x purple velvet jacket club.

Most young women my age had posters of 80’s rockers or horses in their dorm room. I had a b&w poster of Newman & Redford from Butch Cassidy. Even then, I had an eye for quality. Thanks for memories, Robert Redford you charismatic & creative soul.

Bluesky is like my house plants: ignored all summer for whatever is happening outside. Sorry baby. I’ll do better.

Here’s my cat doing the thing that required me to climb a ladder before a cup of joy this am. She’s like a D1 athlete. I call her breed a “Ottocento Pantera.” Shes an $800 panther. She was mostly feee except a vet visit for “dehydration” & vet spa-day, hence the $800. She’s unstoppable.

Many days of rain on the agenda here in the PNW. Looks like no mowing for awhile. Birds are tweeting g loudly with joy. You know you’re native when you’re glad for it.

Truly Stevie Nicks the cat has a lot of attention right now. It’s called avoidance.

Pretty stoked to get the boat polished and some gel coat work completed. PNW boating season is fast approaching.

My sleep number score is in a free-fall since 1/20. Last night this am I decided to get up and be up awhile. That’s when I saw this gem. Winter insomnia is a thing for me. It will pass. Like FOTUS one day will magically disappear.

Sort of looks like someone is watching us & we’re all just floating around a little snow-globe on a shelf somewhere, thinking we’re the center of it all. 🌏🌍🌎

“The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it”. Neil deGrasse Tyson could you please have a word with the incoming non-believers aka the clown cabinet? Please and thank you.

Apparently I’m missing Build-your-ark season in the PNW while out east. Not sad about that.

In the gray of the days, I like to look at my garden from a mere few weeks ago. Whatever it takes to get through the big dark time.

The Arbutus Madrona trees of the San Juan’s are what the boat is named for. They grow under impossible circumstances, need to be near salt water & salty-air ions. And they’re indigenous to a very specific part of the west coast and Canada. Relatable!

Aside from politics, landscape design and Pilates, I’m an avid PNW boater. I’m Chief of the Boat, Bosun & Chief Stew on Madrona. Women in boating, where you at?
