I’m sick this week and have no new pictures to display. Luckily, the week before was pretty good! The botanic garden is so peaceful at this time of year.








Comfort and compassion out of chaos
I’m sick this week and have no new pictures to display. Luckily, the week before was pretty good! The botanic garden is so peaceful at this time of year.
So glad to hear you are on the mend. I had laptop problems for awhile and finally just got a new one. Not sure if you’ve seen my new addition, Cooper who is in my main pic now, he just turned 9 months this weekend. He’s a rescue so I have no idea his breed(s). Looks like a mini golden retriever sorta. Love these pics of your animal fam as always, I get such a grin from them and a glow.

A new puppy? How fun! I see the book covers etc. but not Cooper when I visit. I’ll have to explore a bit to look for him. Life is better with a dog (and cat)!

I just love your kitty and woofie. Hoping you are feeling better! Thanks for the sunshine photos, it’s so cold here they helped warm me a bit. Dakota cuddles with his stuffies lately and he is a senior. Must bring them some sort of comfort.

I think the dolls they carry around are so cute! Seldom an empty mouth. I’m happy to share our sunshine. After an abnormally cold and snowy fall, we’ve had a bit of a false spring. Soon, we’ll be back in the snow. In the meantime, the cats are loving the sunbeams!

Thanks. I’m on the return trip to health finally. The botanic gardens isn’t a high-adrenaline place to go, but it is full of peace. Just my style!
