This all came off my head a week ago. Big change! From hair down to my ass, to very, very short. #haircut

My ponytail, after being cut off. A couple feet of brown hair bundled in hair ties, ready for donation.

A large pile of more hair cut off after the ponytail.

Morning walkies along the Spokane river with Katie and Rocco. #dog #walkies #trail

A view across the Spokane river near an old railroad crossing, with a covered walkway passing underneath.

My little patio garden doesn't make me self-sufficient. But it does give me some delicious tomatoes and squash and peppers, and herbs to cook them with. It also gives me a nice little green space to read a book in. And that's all I wanted from it.

A small patio with a small brown dog on a chair, a mushroom-shaped stool in front of her, and a mass of green potted plants in front of her, mostly tomatoes from this view.

Two mini-patty pan squashes, a Queen of the Night tomato all streaky with red and purple, and a few little Champagne Bubble golden tomatoes with some purple beans.

Ahead of me today, a very fluffy motorcycle rider! #dogs

Looking at the back of a motorcycle rider with a fluffy dog's head peering out from behind them, enjoying the ride. They appear to be in a secure holder of some kind.

I usually do spend the weekend with my dogs, because by the weekend I do not want to people any more.

My Rocco and Katie have more personality than most people.

Two chihuahua crosses on a bed, side by side facing the camera, with a little pile of toys behind them. On the left is Rocco, who is brown and black with a grey muzzle and paws. On the right is Katie, golden all over, even her eyes.

#blueskyartshow #curve I took this on my old patio a few years ago.

Two blue bottles with handles, staggered on a black metal grid table. The reflections of the grid pattern curve up in the glass toward the handles.

DragonMusing@dragonmusing· Jun 20

I spent 6 months looking for Rocco. I already had 2 dogs, I really did not want another one. But I could not stop going into every shelter I passed. And I traveled through 3 states during that time. I didn't know why, until finally there he was, my little Rocco. And I tell him about it frequently.

I am totally into marmots these days! These are yellow-chested marmots in Spokane, Wa. #marmots #spokane #wildlife

A marmot climbing down a rock, paused to look up before ducking under the rock into a burrow.

A watch marmot, standing upright on his hind legs on a pile of rocks in front of tall grass, looking all serious and on duty.

Two big marmots, one sitting on a rock with their pudgy belly looking volley-ballish, and another nearly as big standing upright near by. They have golden chests and white spots that look like band-aids on their noses.

Another view of the very round largest marmot, crouched on their favorite boulder.

He looks just like my Lil' Dudasaurus!

A crested gecko, standing on a black surface in his enclosure. He is a tannish color with dalmation spots.

Absolutely. Mine has been my muse more than once!

And STILL burning, now over 21 hours later. It really shouldn't be.

The same green candle in a glass ball, still burning a low flame that looks like it's about to go out.

DragonMusing@dragonmusing· May 2

Yesterday for May Day I made some small candles, beeswax. Last evening I lit one and watched it burn for a while. It started melting quickly and was soon guttering. I left it outside (in a safe place) expecting it to be out soon. It is still burning 14 hours later! #Beltaine #MayDay #WitchSky

A small curio box containing glass vials of herbs and oils, with some bright green candles sitting on it. The two round ones are slightly larger than golf balls.

A partially melted small round green candle burning in a round glass holder sitting on a patio table in the dawn light.

He was hunting marmots. There were, indeed squeaks coming from the hole. And on top of the hill. And various other places. Lots of marmots. I did not allow him to stake out the burrow for more than a few sniffs and pictures. But it was the deepest one I've seen going straight down. #dogs #marmots

A small brown dog peering down into a deep hole in the ground, into which he would likely fit.

Another angle of the hole, which goes straight down longer than I could see, and has audible squeaks coming from within. And evidence of residency wedged between the two big rocks in the form of a nice dried turd.

The little dog seriously considering trying to climb down the hole, just before I convinced him otherwise.

Happy #ArborDay

Spring has sprung on my little patio! Heirloom tomatoes and peppers, some herbs, peas and beans along the right hand side, and some mini-patty pan squashes among the flowers and greenery. I think the dogs like it, too. #spring #garden #patio

A small apartment patio with many planters, some on small shelves, full of a variety of young plants. A small brown dog stands at the gate, and another one lays in the patio chair.

Happy Birthday, Tim Curry! Master of so very many iconic roles. You are truly one of a kind, and many lives have been the richer for it. Major Vladikov, the second-best terrorist in the world. McHale's Navy, 1997.

My Lil' Dudasaurus found a spot to perch while I warmed up his humidity chamber. #reptile #lizard #gecko #crestie @13xxb0t.bsky.social

A kitchen counter with some fruit. A crested gecko, perched on an apple, about to climb onto a spaghetti squash.

The crested gecko made it onto the spaghetti squash and is perched against a brick backsplash, with fruit and a jar of honey behind on the counter.

My first planting day of spring! It was so very nice out today. My little patio is looking green again! #garden #plants #patio #spring

Planting a pot full of creeping jennie, a pale green ground cover plant.

Some small shelves with pots, some planted and some with plants still in their plastic starter trays, waiting to go in them.

The shelves with planters full of pansies and violas and geraniums, with a few scattered decorative dragons and rocks.

This completely pisses me off. These showed up in bathrooms at work. We are women, not children. The title play on Tidy-Cat kitty litter is disgusting. And they don't put such instructions on dog poop bags, why would women need them? AND WE AREN'T ALL INTO PINK! Obviously designed by a man.

A bathroom dispenser with pink plastic bags labeled "Tidy Girl" with picture instructions for using them on sanitary pads like you would dog poop.

I do a whole wide range of crafting. I do needle-felting as my primary fiber art, but have also played with wet-felting.

Girl Scout cookies are not what they used to be. The box is a quarter empty, and this new flavor suck. I know costs have gone up, but trying to hide it with shrinkflation and cheap recipes is not the way to go. #GirlScoutCookies
