Having survived SA and some DV - I have never wished that others should go through those kinds of things. But now, I have to admit that I wish that and more on trump, musk, and ALL those who have enabled him. Fire and oil come to mind.

Big cat in the back of a range rover at the San Diego zoo.

This is Punkin Eddie. Our newest terror.

The walls of my office are covered in stuff. I love all the things I have displayed. Each one holds a memory.

My dad made these. I made a book with photos of all the stuff he made and suggestions of where I thought his inspiration came from. And some family stuff.

My husband. Tim is a definite keeper!

This is my everyday cup. The perfect size.

An ageless, universal sentiment.

Milo my love. His eyes always glow that way.

Artemis Kitty. She never liked anyone much but enjoyed blocking my screen and hanging out with me.

Axl Rose when he was much younger. He is a good boy.

Don't look too close, I really need to clean my coffee maker!

I often get these mugs as gifts. I collect them and started out just collecting from places I'd actually been. It occurs to me that these collections offer an opportunity to those who keep you in their thoughts to show they care. So, now with over 100 mugs I am reminded - I am loved.

It is a rainy, and gloomy day but this is a beautiful cup of coffee. Make it a good day! Love you.
