i am home again. it was rough. i'm still a mess, but i am relieved to have my lil girl home once more. our house was her sanctuary, where she knew she was always safe and sound. thank you for the good thoughts. seeing Charlotte's paw print, touching it, means the world to me. she was my angel 💔

if you see this, please hold a good thought for me. i am driving to the vet's office to pick up my little girl's ashes. i want so much to bring her home, but this is breaking me.

i feel very silly to admit this lovely little toy has brought me much comfort these past days. She is a stuffy dog that i imagine looks as Charlotte did when Char was a puppy, a time from long before we met, a period of time that ended with my sweet girl abandoned a stray. ❤️‍🩹

last week, one of my students gave me flowers in remembrance of my Charlotte
a gift bouquet of white flowers that have begun to wilt but remain beautiful to me because of the generosity of the giver who wanted to help ease my sorrow. the flowers are haphazardly arranged in a glass vase. a picture of Charlotte from 10 years ago. she is resting on her tummy, her arms stretched out in front of her. Her eyes are lively, her smile, fetching, and her flouncy tail looks like it has a life of its own.

my darling and beautiful Charlotte, one week gone from me and how i miss her. this portrait was made the afternoon before.
Portrait of my beloved Charlotte, a small white, elderly dog. Her dark brown eyes are open, the white fur atop her head is tousled, delicate, wispy and white hairs encircle her lips and nose. Her expression is tired and wise. Taken the afternoon of our last full day together, she would pass in the early morning hours of the next. Her absence has broken my heart. How I miss her presence.

taken a week ago tomorrow, the last day she spent with me. my last picture of her. how sweet her expression, how tired she appears. my beloved little girl. i am lost without her.
my last portrait of my beloved little girl, Charlotte, a small white dog who would have turned 19 in January. she is seen resting her head atop a stuffed toy dog and amidst one of her many blankets. Her dark brown eyes are weary. The soft, soft white fur atop her head is tousled. Her light brown nose is pointed upward. she was and is forever my best friend. i loved her more than i knew i could. she taught me everything that is important. she brought out the best in me.

I am thankful you helped save Bianca, a little cat that was run down by a careless driver. you helped put out the word, and a worldwide group of wonderful people contributed money towards a surgery that healed her broken jaw. Bianca is now happily adopted into her forever family. #KindnessMatters ❤️‍🩹
Bianca is a small cat that was set loose on a busy neighborhood street and subsequently hit by a car. An emergency vet wired her broken jaw into place. She was four months in recovery and became a foster fail. Loving people from around the world contributed to her care, spurred on by HerdHouseMom and JenColeslaw.

I am thankful for you. You have given me such joy. The Herd is is keeping me glued together right now, for I am in the throes of grief over the passing of my beloved Charlotte. Your posts, the pictures and the vids, they mean the world to me. ❤️❤️‍🩹❤️

i rarely make videos, but here is one from a few years ago. Charlotte is charming me to forget she is in dire need of a bath.

And so I say goodbye to my true and forever best friend, she taught me so much about who I was and the best that I could be. Ad astra my darling, wonderful, beautiful, lovely, lovely sweet and precious girl.

as Queen of her domain, Charlotte wants all to know she does not bow before a king because there are #NoKINGS in her country
Charlotte, a very elderly and lovely in every way white poodle mix, is seen held by Santa. while he is in his red festive red coat, she is dressed in her most comfy blue sweater and her most festive penguin neck scarf

if u see this quote with the energy u bring to bsky
a raccoon is seen standing upright and staring balefully at his photographer, who had stopped to tie her shoe and thus trespassed on his territory, a residential block of a small city of little consequence. his photographer understood his disdain and annoyance with her and quickly departed the area.

it's easier for me to spot prairie dogs in SD, pronghorn in WY. there is a section on the WY state highway heading out of Laramie to Wheatland where i always spot pronghorn, including this guy who stood his ground while I pointed my camera.

one thing i love to see, the snow fences. such a strange thing to see for someone that lives in So Cal.

Also, these guys!
