I may be old and forgetful, but at least I’m not old and forgetful
I learned on a manual typewriter in high school. Woohoo! For once, I’m gonna be ahead of the curve!

Temps are on the downswing, so we bought Bean a cozy new parka. I wondered why she didn’t stand up once it was on, then realized I’d put both legs in the same opening.

Bean is a very patient pup some days.

And piss everyone off equally. Is this her new crossing the floor/descending the stairs moment?

Bean showing off her streamlined look on #TerrierTuesday. Or she thinks she’s a rabbit - hard to tell some days, with all the hopping around she does.

This appeared in response to Haguseth’s tweet. (Keep Franklin’s name out of your lying mouth, bourbon-breath.)

I’ve done the same, but with the addition of a blob of lightly sweetened cream cheese at the bottom.

I know I’ll be eating my words when I‘m still shovelling the driveway in March, but I really do love winter.

Bean is fondly remembering last summer’s flowers and wishing you a happy #TerrierTuesday and #TongueoutTuesday.

A few of the hundreds of geese flying overhead during our walk this morning. They’ve been settling for the night in the rapidly-shrinking area of the lake that’s still ice-free, then heading to the fields in the morning to glean the last of the grain.

My Bean actively resents it when I ride in the passenger’s seat because even though she has a cozy bed and blanket there, the backseat isn’t heated.

Ain’t no glare like a terrier glare:

Bean loves sweater weather! She hopes you have a warm and happy Friday❄️

Since Bean doesn’t own a party hat, she got some help from her monkey fren to #celebrate on #TerrierTuesday.
She hopes you have a wonderful day!

This is Bean, Mexico’s best export ever (maybe we should have called her Frijole?).

For #ForestFriday, a little taste of the snow we got last night. 🌱

After a challenging couple of days, tonight's display was a colourful reminder that it pays to keep looking up.
(Plus, what 80s girl doesn’t love pink and green?)

Eggnog enhanced with a bit of rum, cold coffee, whipped cream and nutmeg: our little treat to mark the first proper snow of the season❄️
November 8, 2025 at 1:47 AM
Woohoo! Does this mean I can bust out the eggnog?

I do love a gloomy November day, especially if I can have stroopwafels with my morning coffee and homemade soup for supper.

Feeding the poor and respecting other humans is ungodly? Well then,
