I remember when we moved into this house in 1994. Purple Rhodie was one of our first plantings. We planted him late, and every year, on schedule, he blooms about two weeks behind everyone else’s rhodies, and I love it! #bloomscrolling #rhododendrons

Re-reading Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is quite enjoyable. There is so much in the book that is skipped in the movies.

Lots of life lessons, the most obvious of which is “Oh, no! Look! It’s the consequences of my own actions and choices!”

But, there are lots of other great insights.

Great little book. #bookstodon #reading

Sunshine. Fresh air. Coffee.

And the cat just left enough fur on my lap to create a whole second cat from 🤣.

Yay shedding season lol! #lifewithcats

I’ve been reading Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, or I should say re-reading it this weekend. Enjoying it!

If you have a love for reading, don’t ever let life take that away.

When a lifelong reader stops because life gets in the way, a part of how you relate to the world leaves you.

Change what you must, but this sacred time for you has to stay in your life.

Screech above my head
Squirrel sitting on a bough
Birds ate all the seeds

Closing out #caturday, my wide eyed Jack.

Having eggs with some zucchini for breakfast.

The only drawback is the cat is on my lap between me and my food, and it’s really hard not to drop zucchini on his head 😸.

Shoulder shoulder
Can’t you see
I need you to move
You’re wrecking me

Not today my shoulder said
I’m not playing
So get it through your head

That’s what you think
Whiny one
Have some prednisone
Let’s get stuff done

Ok fine my shoulder said
But just for today
And then I need bed

A truce is made and balance found
I’ll do some things
Then I’ll sit back down
