NSFW outtakes:

A small red cherry tomato that has grown one upward-pointing, uhhhh, protuberance.

Welp, I've won gardening. I can stop now:

A small red grape tomato perched in the finger hole of scissors to keep it from rolling away. IT HAS PERFECTLY FORMED DEVIL HORNS!

Candlelights: Tool at The Old Church

A church-style altar and gorgeous pipe organ lit with hundreds of very realistic white candles on the stairs, floor, piano, altar, and organ.

Working on the patio social circle, please come over soon.

Under a covered patio, two wicker chairs and two faded red chairs, and and the edge of a green couch, with gray skies and pine trees in the background.

Every city's got an ominous megastructure (Gordon's Fireplace Shop, Portland OR)

Nothing is in place but we've got a (alt text) dry patio in the rain at dusk, the porch TV is deployed, we are kicked back ( end alt) we've finally maybe gotten mom down for the night, and our new adjustable bed is assembled and made upstairs. A fine first night in our new house.

I admire this cat's absolute refusal to be intimidated my moving. The Distribution System is remarkable. This is 90 minutes after the movers left and she was released from bathroom jail. She decided not to attempt the jump onto the piano.

A tuxedo cat stands on the back of an orange wing chair, the second highest object in a room full of jumbled furniture and boxes in front of a large picture window. She is contemplating a 6+ foot jump to the highest object in the room: an upright piano.

Here she is, Sadness in a little tuxedo.

Obviously there's a lot of packing and taking things to the other house going on, including emptying the garage. The cat is Upset, and has taken to sitting in a nest of old cat toys and rags in the mostly empty garage

LOVE when the sky is this color of green. Rain started right after the photo.

Just hanging out in my new back yard.

A wide expanse of green lawn surrounded by mostly evergreen trees, with a fenced off garden in the back left corner and a fire pit area in the back right. The porch roof is shading the nearest strip of lawn and a pot of purple and yellow flowers hangs in the top left.

A gray dining chair serves as a table for some jalapeño cheddar Cheetos, with one Shiner Bock on each side on the ground. Steps and support beams and grass and fence can be seen in the background

We're pretty much across the finish line, y'all want to see my new back yard? Yes, this is all getting converted to garden.

ALT: panorama photo of a deep covered shaded porch with a long green lawn bordered by fencing. Along the left side of the fence is a shed and a fenced garden plot with stepping stones. At lower right, a firepit.

Without downloading anything new, where are you, mentally?

A painting of a woman in an odd yellow period tube-top over a heavily padded white coat-top (might be suffragette/suffragist-era protest fashion?) looks diretly into the pov holding a sign on a wooden post. The sign reads "If you see a toilet in your dream, don't use it."

Fell in love with a house, got pupusas to eat in the neighborhood park

Background: the trunks of very large pine trees. In the foreground on a picnic table: golden plantains, pupusa, beans, and a bright orange frescas I can't remember the name of.

Some days you just do what you can to get through it.

TEXT: "It's Sen. Schumer. I urgently need you to sign our petition to protect voting rights by standing up to Trump. Donald Trump signed an order cracking down on mail-in voting. We used him IMMEDIATELY. Please add your name to support the sacred right to vote (url removed because it's fucking fundraising shit)

Schumer

Stop to End"

MY REPLY: "I urgently need your useless ass to resign."

Current status: garden vineyard Mt Hood enormous pines, and huckleberry cider.

Foreground: mismatched chairs and tables alongside a long bed of tulips to the right and enormous pines to the left. Middle background: vineyard and cherry trees. Background center: Mt Hood in all its glacial glory, snowline ending just above the newly-budding grapevines.

From earlier, Swedish hash (pytt i panna) with smoked trout, salmon fish cakes, spring mix salad, bread.

Center skillet of hashed vegetables with beets featuring prominently. Brown toasted bread with hash on it. In front of me: half-eaten fish cake, pile of salad and pickled onions, some hot sauces.

Storefronts, trees, very cute small tourist town vibes

Love Oregon spring with everything new all neon green against the evergreens.

Mountains are out!

Tiny bit of the top of Mt St Helens peeks above the trees, out the driver's side window

Mt Hood ahead, viewed from I-84. Indistinct low clouds today

This doesn't need an alt tag because it's the whole post: a tuxedo cat stares intently at an automated food dispenser, because she has just figured out it IS a food dispenser

I've been feeling sinusy the past couple days. Dr Cat and Snakey, NP have put me to bed.

A large black and white cat half-reclines, staring into the camera next to a pink and grey striped pompom snake toy, which is also staring into the camera but from alongside the cat's belly.

Local tuxedo becomes fire appreciator

A large tuxedo cat lays on a rug in front f a roaring fire. Her white belly looks an hourglass and her little mitten feet are up

Lyn Never@lynnever· Feb 18

The cat finally understands fire:

A black cat shaped blob loafs on a rug in front for a fireplace. The ears show she is facing the fire.

Everyone take a 30-second break from FUCKING EVERYTHING and check out my yard skeleton's new outfit (we will have to put them in a clear plastic poncho soon to keep the feathers dry)

A neon green 5-foot-tall skeleton sits in a green lawn chair. It is wearing a Mardi Gras outfit all in green, yellow, and purple: sequin headband with feathers and fleur-de-lis, gold masquerade mask, feather boa, beads, and a tutu. Its right hand is raised to wave at the dog walkers on the sidewalk.

My therapist had already prescribed regular lunches out with my husband, so I've had some (beautifully-lit) prescription pineapple fried rice and (absolutely fantastic) stir-fried catfish and eggplant.
