And now we snuggle with our "micro dog", Bertie, reading Magnificent Makers by @doctheagrif.bsky.social .
Blanket's an axolotl snuggie (my Halloween costume), which always makes be think of @rogerslabucd.bsky.social .
So thankful for these amazing scientists sharing their passion.
I am so lucky.

Some joy for the darkness: Almost-8yo doesn't care that there's only 3/4in of sleet+snow and it's 20F, she's sledding on the almost flat driveway, dammit!
And a good lesson in seeing the possibilities when things aren't perfect.

Always a treat when I can make it to the PhD defense of a HIC user. Looking forward to great science and images from Andrew Kennedy.

This stuff. I cannot remember why it was disliked, just that it was decidedly Inferior. And the way it melted in your mouth generated wicked sharp edges.

Needed to look up something fundamental, so hit the books.
Miss these titans in the field.
They had very different personalities but shared dedication to microscopy access and discovery.

Make that coop super secure. Our backyard foxes showed up yesterday and today we found 2 chicken feet in the yard 😬. Mom and 6 kits are all adorable.

Beauty and joyful moments can be very fleeting. But duration doesn't define value. Pause a second to really experience them if you can't pause for longer.
Same flower, 24hr and a strong rain storm later. Still beautiful, but differently.

Belated public Happy Mother's Day to my mom. Her amazing home management and editorial skills were a critical (and acknowledge) part of my dad's success. They have always been both a team and their own people, in different ways. She embodies unconditional love with lots of pragmatism. I am so lucky.
