Hulu is being really weird lately--"Next Episode" plays the last five minutes of that episode... and then goes straight to the last few minutes of the next episode...

Enjoying the view at work today 🌱

Photo of the side of a red brick church with a retaining wall on one side topped with beautiful flowers in yellow and red and low growing bushes in various shades of green

In the background there are tall trees under a bright blue sky with white clouds

Not a bad office !

Two dogs cuddling side by side on top of a dog bed with the charger cord of my laptop computer underneath the elbow front knee of the larger dog , a Goldendoodle . The other dog is a smaller smooth haired darker brown dog of dubious unknown breed origins .

An excellent well stocked food pantry offering other basic necessities like diapers, clothing, & a free gathering space to connect with resources and each other while surrounded by artwork. Crafting, puzzles, a kids’ play space, & a Little Free Library. An oasis amid the ongoing recovery. #Helene

Photo of tall shelves stocked with canned food and dry goods

Photo of a bookcase full of jigsaw puzzles with a bright blue curtain behind it, a comfy couch to the side, and a square wooden table with a puzzle in progress

Photo of a comfy couch and chair next to a couple of wooden bookcases holding a Little Free Library

Above the couch are two large paintings by a local artist , depicting the immediate aftermath of the hurricane and the hopeful but ongoing rebuilding process

In front of the LFL is a small wooden table holding brochures and flyers from Hope4NC listing other available free resources ( in English , Spanish , and Russian )

May 23 over the years… today it served up some foster photos! The big white floof wasn’t a foster, but the others were. #DogsOfBluesky

Top left : Hugo the floofy Pyr sniffing Herman the black and tan hound dog, who is in a dog crate in front of a window. There’s carpet on the floor and a wooden chair with a precariously tall stack of books on the seat .

Top right : Herman standing next to a bookcase looking out the window facing away from camera .

Bottom row : two close up pics of Herman and in bottom left corner Callie the Goldendoodle ‘ s face peering over the foot of a bed covered with a green and white quilt . I eventually adopted her . 💗

Not that a shelf full of books needs any dressing up, but I accessorized this one with blooms from my garden. 🌱 🌹

Close up of dark brown wooden bookshelf with two small blue glass bud vases in front of the books . One holds a yellow rose bloom and the other a pink one . Books behind the flowers have spines in a variety of colors . Titles include Fangirl , Little Panic , My Year of Rest and Relaxation , and Girl Unknown .
