Neurodivergent Survivor. Retired veteran. I persevere w/PTSD & TBI. Backyard Birder/Gardener/Butterfly-er. Puppy momma. 🌈Returning to the creative pen. Vision fading to black w/worsening tremors makes for "creative" photos, 😂 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ C'est la guerre.

So many things, my mind #eludes Forgetting too many names and dates Consistently dampens my moods So many things, my mind eludes But never morning coffee brews I guess that's the plan of the Fates So many things, my mind eludes Forgetting too many names and dates #vss365 #Poetry #TBI #BraveWrite

The sun rises on garden lines, And light defines the metal's angles. Each crossing point a quiet sign, Of peace even in wire tangles. #Whistpr #Angle #Poetry #Quatrain #BlueskyPhotography #Garden #Gardening #Fences #Peace #Hope #Resilience

1) Beautiful rose. 2) Beauty can sometimes looks small while you hold it in your hands, but step back, let it go, and see the beauty conquer all the ugly. (adapted from Maxim Gorky)
I'll be at the library on Sept 6th at 10am signing books. I'm not an author or anything I just like writing my name on books.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!🫶🫶🫶 I will/am/always "Keep Calm and Carry On." Well, maybe after a good cry :)
Sometimes, when I order something online, I don't open it right away. I just look at the package now and again and realize that until I actually open it, I am thrilled and disappointed at the same time. A veritable schrodinger's parcel if you will.
This, ok this gave me a good one! TYVM!!! Had no clue what KBO meant. Go to Google and this is what I got: 1st - Korean Baseball Organization (I do enjoy the game) 2nd - Kuiper Belt Object (I do enjoy the night sky) 3rd - "Keep Buggering On" a la Winston Churchill. (This I REALLY like!! Thanks 🫶)

What Do You Read? A #bookshelf holding all the world’s pages, From ancient ideas to modern-day sages. Do you seek purpose in Machiavelli’s The Prince Cold, cunning logic, stripped of conscience? Or do you find something more true, Like The Little Prince, love shining through? #Whistpr #Photography
The #jovial gardener sings her song While pulling weeds and picking peas All is great, nothing ever wrong The jovial gardener sings her song No task feels hard or seems too long She works among the humming bees The jovial gardener sings her song While pulling weeds and picking peas #vss365 #Triolet
