I’ve never seen the food court at Costco so full…and given the amount of screaming babies around, it doesn’t sound like anyone is happy about it. 🤪😂😅

First and only peppermint mocha of the holiday season, from the “big” coffee chain. ☕️📷

📷 Two Thanksgivings down…I’m honestly not sure how many more to go at this point… 😭🤣

🎵 Yes, I know it’s too early for holiday music but it’s been a rough year…and it’s Cher, so the rules don’t apply. 🏳️🌈
Bring on the holiday music! 🎄

I was hoping to start swapping my media server from it’s tower case into my new Slinger CX4712 case over the weekend…but life got in the way. Fingers crossed I can get to it this week, I don’t want to impact any end users. 🤞🏻📷

An annual tradition with my Girls from University, we started watching the movie (and pigging out) outside during the Pandemic and have just kept that as part of our Autumn event.

On a lark yesterday (it was a very long day at work), I decided “oh, what the heck, install the betas”…and honestly, I’m rather surprised. Both my phone and tablet are running faster and smoother. (Side Note: having iOS tag your pets into a collection is amazing. 🐶🐱) #iOS #beta

Random Thought: With Twitter (aka “X”) talking about collecting even more data (link to Ars Technica), now seems like a good time to export my old Tweets, remove the Twitter apps from my devices, and import said data into Micro Blog.

Random Thought: Sipping on my first and only pumpkin spice latte of the season. ☕️🎃🍁

I keep looking up, expecting Russell to be on the couch or in his nest of blankets. I keep expecting to hear the clatter of his nails on the kitchen floor. I keep expecting to hear him woof and growl at the slamming of a car door. I keep expecting him to greet me @ the door. 💔🐶

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 pillow
I’m reminded of my favorite song from my favorite musical:
I’ve heard it said,
That people come into our lives,
For a reason.
Bringing something we must learn.
And we are lead to those,
Who help us most to grow if we let them.
And we help them in return.
Well I don’t know if I believe that’s true.
But I know I’m who I am today,
Because I knew you.
…..
Who can say if I’ve been changed for the better.
I do believe I have been changed for the better.
…..
Because I knew you,
I have been changed
For good.…Of course, in my head, I’m changing out “people” with “dogs” but you get the idea…
Goodbye my little friend, I’m going to miss you…until we (hopefully) meet again. Thank you for letting me be your Human. 💔🐶
