  • 📸 September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 9: Language

    View of a split-flap display board (looking up from below) with times, places, and destinations in French, along with a clock on the left side of the board.

    Given this photo was taken around ten years ago, I’m not sure why I took it but this was the view of an arrival/departure board at a train station in Paris. 🚄🇫🇷 Now if only I’d learned French… 😢 #mbsept

  • 📸 September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 8: Yonder

    View of a desert, with distant hills in the background, rocks and short brush in the foreground, and a sliver of a small creek in the middle.

    Another one from photo library, this view into the yonder was taken near the Four Corners monument in the South West of the States in 2019. 🌵⛰️ #mbsept

  • 📸 September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 7: Panorama

    Panoramic view of a water fall on the right, with a bridge going over the falls, wooden steps in the lower-right of the photo, leading down to a covered octagon pavilion on a hill-side, and a large body of water in the center of the photo, flowing out to a river in the distance, in the upper-left of the photo, where several bridges can be seen.

    A panorama view of Montmorency Falls, just outside of Ville de Québec (Quebec City) in Canada, as it tumbles down into the basin and flows into the Fleuve Saint-Laurent (St. Lawrence River), on a sunny day in August. #mbsept

  • 📸 September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 6: Well

    Big bucket of red liquid in the foreground, with a person directly behind it (their face has been replaced with a smile emoticon) in a white shirt, with another person in the background; a white Christmas tree, with lights, is in the background behind the second person.

    Closest thing I could find in my photo library, this is a “well” of alcohol at a Holiday party back at University. 🎄🍾🥳 #mbsept

  • 📸 September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 5: Forest

    Landscape photo with clouds in the sky and a distant view of forest-covered 'hills' (they're called mountains on the east coast but they would be called hills when compared to the Rocky Mountains), with a forest in the foreground of the photo.

    The view from some random trail in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park a couple years back. 🌳 #mbsept

  • 📸 September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 4: Orange

    Cider in a glass, the rim dusted with cinnamon powder, with a vertical orange slice on the lip of the glass, on a white-cloth covered table with a spoon in the foreground.

    Every time my partner and I visit Quebec City, we have a dinner at a local crepêrie and inevitably get cider with the meal. This time, there was cinnamon on the glass and an orange slice. 🍎🍊 #mbsept

  • 📸 September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 3: Precious

    Grey long-haired cat (with a tuff of lighter fur on his chest), looking straight into the camera, with light yellow-green eyes.

    Sadly, our little puppy-rabbit crossed the rainbow bridge back in February but this little fur-ball is still with us, eating us out of house and home, puking all his food up, and wailing plaintively to go outside. 😸 #mbsept

  • 📸 September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 2: buildup

    Vegan slinger (sourdough toast, vegetarian sausage, and scrambled eggs, covered in gravy) on a white plate with a fork.

    The inverse of “buildup” is “tear down” and in my case, devouring breakfast while catching up with an old friend. 🍽️ #mbsept

  • 📸 September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 1: Abstract

    Abstract image with shades of blue and silver.

    Decided it would be fun to use DiffusionBee, used the following for the prompt: “random collection of splashes of colors, focusing on shades of blue and silver, Jackson Pollock, HD” #mbsept

  • Another iOS Photos widget memory of #Russell 💔🐶

    Taken On: 2021-10-01 @ 22:39 #nostalgia #memories

  • I use the iOS Photos widget on my Home Screen and there have been a lot of #Russell photos popping up lately. 💔🐶 I’ve decided it would be a good idea to post them, until it isn’t… 🤣

    Taken On: 2019-02-15 @ 18:07 #nostalgia #memories

  • I still wake up every day, missing Russell, hoping it was just a bad dream…only for reality to come crashing down on me. 💔🐶 I’m so grateful to all the friends who’ve been there for me, trying to offer comfort and companionship; I’m truly blessed. ❤️

    White dog on his back, with his head cocked back to look at the camera, showing some side-eye, with his head back on a purple pillow.

  • “How did that annoying little creature worm his way so deep into our hearts?" - me asking my Partner between breakdowns today 💔🐶

    Messy white dog, with hair obscuring one eye, staring into the camera while on a blue pillow.

  • Nobody tells you how much this hurts…or maybe they did and I just didn’t realize? I’ve never lost a pet as an adult; it’s been less than 12 hours and I feel like it’s been an eternity. I don’t know what I’m going to do without Russell, the world just feels so…empty. 💔🐶

  • Goodbye Russell

    We said goodbye to our boy today. He drifted across the rainbow bridge full of all his favorite foods (ham, meatballs, & pâté), nestled between us on the couch (it was his favorite place to be). I’m going to miss you, my little puppy-rabbit, I’m going to miss you. 💔🐶🐕 Russell, resting on a … read more
