Our little Wilma cat squeezed into this overturned laundry basket the other day. #caturday
I am so grateful to be able to spend my birthday at the Chesapeake Bay. However I am covered in cuts and scratches and have some mildly bruised ribs due to a complicated cat rescue earlier in the week. Apparently in my 57 years on this planet I've learned nothing. #caturday #neuteriscuter #757
If you don’t have a free fridge/community sharing space in your neighborhood, try to figure out how to create one. I dropped food in our free fridge this morning, just as another neighbor was leaving flowers to share. #RVA #mothersday #virginia
We finally made it to the NATO festival in Norfolk, Virginia. Very fun. We need to get there earlier next year.
Some genius B-school graduate seems to have convinced this NYC hotel to substitute some kind of off brand iPads for elevator buttons. And some genius guest took one home as a souvenir. a
After a hard week, this cheers me up. Our neighbor keeps Muscovy ducks. This little sparrow scored a duck feather for their nest. #rva #swansboro
When I’m feeling gloomy, a visit here usually cheers me up. #fortmonroe
Happy adoptaversary to this little beast we found abandoned in the woods three years ago today.
Late breaking #caturday news. Our two girl cats are sharing a bed together for the first time. Happy Valentine's Day! (our wonderful old male cat passed away in October and the girls have had to figure out their relationship now that it's just the two of them.)
Happy #caturday from Wilma, our fierce little companion beast who is also incredibly loyal and responsible.
Somehow my dog turned into a judgy old man demanding we change the channel so we can see Kid Rock.
When I'm feeling particularly depressed or anxious, I cook food for the free fridge in our neighborhood. Today's mood. #RVA, #Virginia, #FreeFridge, #vegetarian, #solidarity
Our pup, Petunia, got to open one of her presents on Christmas Eve. Behold the pizza blanket. #dogsky #dogsofbluesky #dog
I am grateful for Amtrak and their fantastic employees. And I’m so glad to now live in a state with rail passenger service.
From Nashville, TN to Phoebus, Virginia. We went for a walk this morning and came across this historical marker. Apparently this school was first staffed in 1923 by Dominican nuns from Nashville.
Recommended guidelines for domestic violence must be a MAHA FDA thing?
