Had a tiny little visitor in our garden today.
Part of the journey after getting diagnosed with AuDHD is obviously trying to understand everything that has happened in my 42 years of living. I wanted to Google something & was hit by the fricking AI output. I usually don't even read those, but man. This was a gut punch of truth. 😭 #MentalHealth
HAPPY MONT VENTOUX DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE! God, I love that mountain so much. Old pic for reminiscing. #TDFF2026 #WatchTheFemmes #MontVentoux
Tiny ride on the tiny bike. Sepp was having fun. Zoom in on his face. That smile. 😎 Time to get myself ready for a sofa session with the Tour. #BlueSkyDogs #LifeIsBetterWithADogAndABike #TDFF2026
I can't believe this was 12 years ago already. My sweet boys. Paulus, my first rescue dog and Elton, my first rescue animal and truly my soulcat. They were the bestest boys. Paulus died in 2017, I lost Elton on the day of Tour of Flanders 2022. I miss them dearly. Forever my boys 🤍
There is no better domestique in life. 🐶❤️🚲 #LifeIsBetterWithADogAndABike #BlueSkyDogs
Afternoon walk in the park. I spot 2 women with a bunch of dogs, off leash. Didn't feel right. I turn sideways to go through the field and around them. Out of nowhere 2 of their dogs came at Seppy in full attack mode. I managed to stand in their way and shield him before he ran away fast.
Here, some happy Seppy on our fun new little friend 🚲 To cheer us up after all that. 💔 Cycling is cruel, man. Sending all the recovery vibes to Jonas ❤️🩹
And here she is. She's small, she's fierce, she's a ginger. So I have no choice but to name her "Puck". #NewToMeBikeDay
Enjoyed the golden hour by riding with Seppy for a bit. We only went to the doggy play field and back, but still... Pretty ride. 😍
Time line cleanse. Happy dogs with ears and smiles to brighten up your day. 🌞 #BlueSkyDogs
Nala has injured her eye. We would like to take her to the vet, but she is not to be caught. She just knows when we have "plans" and will not come near us. I thought it might help to pretend like their backpack was brought out as nice extra place to nap. She didn't fall for it. Bennie did though. 😅
This Millenial teenage girl at heart is obviously going to see the Backstreet Boys in Düsseldorf end of September. Going with baby sis and her girlfriend + gf's sister. I could not resist creating us an appropriate T-shirt. #BackstreetBoys #IntoTheMillennium #ComicArt
At least ridiculous o'clock morning walks provide some some pretty rays of golden light. The bestest boy was so happy. Not a living soul in sight. Just me and him and some nature. Those are the best walks.
Desperate times, man. Desperate times. 🥵🌡️🔥
13 years ago. The cat of my soul was still with me. Elton, my boy, I miss you every day. Also, I was blonde.
Uma & Sepp, the best of duos. Happy faces at ridiculous o'clock in the morning. And now it's a matter of melting (or rotting) away at the couch while the mobile airco works as hard as it can. Sending cool vibes to all who need it. ❄️ 🧊 ❄️
The face of a betrayed little dog. "What do you mean my crate comes with the stroller instead of the bike today?" The things we do for this little dog. Looking like fools pushing this annoyed face around to find some shade, to make sure he doesn't burn his little paws when he needs to go pee.
At least the hot days have inspired me to make a Summer Club illustration, so I have an excuse to order myself a new t-shirt. 😇 #GrandTour #SummerClub #ComicArt #GiroDItalia #TDF #LaVuelta
Mobile airco does work hard, so I'm surviving the days as long as I stay inside. The nights though. I can't.... Positive note: super quiet early walks with this one.
The misery. Oh, the scorching hot misery. Not sure if I'm going to survive this summer. 😭 Someone, please freeze me and keep me on ice until it's over. 😭 Chronically sleep deprived, almost incapable of eating and a brain melted like a wax candle. I am not coping well at all.
Did some more therapy homework. My do's and don'ts. #AuDHD #ActuallyAutistic #AutisticBurnout #MentalHealthMatters #ComicArt
Therapist: For the next session, try making a chart of how to regulate overwhelm or overstimulation. Me: Can I go artsy? Therapist: Suuuuure. Me: Hold my coffee. #AuDHD #Autism #AutisticBurnout #ActuallyAutistic #MentalHealthMatters #ComicArt
I could not be more pleased. Maximilian has the Brooks saddle he deserves. 😍 #OmniumMiniMax #Brooks #DIY
Like I said, I was out riding with Sepp. 🐶🚲☀️
