I understand from Terri's Post this week, that June is Outdoors Month. The photos below were taken outdoors in places we have been. I am frustrated that my bad knee prevents me from doing much walking these days (re-injured my repaired ACL in left knee last week). In any case, I'm no athlete, and the …
Let it be hereby known to all present that I Hate Pink! I never wear pink, I don't buy pink furniture or accessories, and I don't like pink precious stones (red is my color). However, that doesn't mean that I ignore pink things around me, and sometimes even admire them. For instance, when I bought …

First, a cute cartoon I was sent. Remember, dogs have owners, cats have staff. Next, a video I shot of the resident Owner, better known as Kikyo. I was about to get on my rowing machine for my daily workout, and she let me know she was bored with watching me. Cheers!
I have a coworker who is at least as much of a cat lover as I am, possibly more. Everything she has, from her lunch bag, to her mouse-pad, to her desktop drinking cup, has a cat pattern. Here are two of her carry-bags she has at work. Cute, aren't they? That's all, folks!

Well, this one should be pretty easy, as I spend lots of time snuggling with my pet kitty, Kikyo, and more time photographing her. In 2020, I even did a whole post entitled "Ten Years of Kikyo". She is named after a Japanese Anime character from the series InuYasha. It's about a present-day Japanese teenager, …
I caught our kitty, Kikyo, on her high cat tree while I was reading on the couch. Thank goodness for the iPhone 13 Pro camera, always at the ready! And for your cat laugh: Kikyo is a "rescue" kitty, and if you are in need of an overlord for your house (dogs have owners, cats …
Since most of my photos these days are taken with my iPhone 13 Pro, I am quite proud of how well it takes photos in low-light conditions. However, even my old iPhone XR took excellent low-light pictures. Last year, on July 4, we went to downtown Bellevue to watch the fireworks (that had been canceled …

Since I am recovering from pneumonia, we mostly stayed home this weekend. On Saturday, New Years Day, I insisted on watching the big Hogwarts Reunion show on HBO Max. It was, simply, wonderful. I became a thorough Harry Potter fan in 2001, when we saw the first movie, and have been one ever since. I …
