Felled by a cold. Sebby and Cricket are helping me stay warm and heal.

Mrs. Mack 5o5 handed me the package with a tear in her eye. “Open it.” I knew what the box contained. Inside the cardboard, wrapped in tissue paper, was a beautifully finished small wooden box. . . —— In the spring of 2000, five kittens were born to a wild mother in a small feralContinue reading “(untitled)”
Take your dog to work
So the internet has decreed that today was Take Your Dog to Work Day. At first I thought it wouldn't work, then I reconsidered. Long stretches on the couch. Blasting across town, head out the open window, tongue lolling in the wind. Howling along with the siren. Yeah, Cricket might enjoy it too. 🙂 Continue reading “Take your dog to work”

Numb
It’s not supposed to be this way. I stand in the long glass hallway of Big City Trauma Center, back to the windows as a throng of humanity streams past. We knew her life might be shortened when we adopted. Shortened however isn’t supposed to mean short. It’s not supposed to be thisContinue reading “Numb”
Light (P366 – April 26)
4/26 – Beth & Cricket. I was experimenting with alternative lighting using a new flash slave adapter. This little $5 gizmo fires its flash when it sees another flash fire. It has lots of possibilities, and I highly recommend picking one up. 4/28 – First day with the new (to me) Minolta HiMatic AF2. IContinue reading “Light (P366 – April 26)”
Project 366 – Leap Day
2/27/12 -Playing with light, shadow, and the Fairlee 2/28/12 – Big Adventure – Sebastian and Chai make their annual pilgrimage to the vet. They were not impressed. 2/29/12 – Winter has finally decided to pay us a visit in time for Leap Day. It’s not much of a storm but it is pretty.
Chickens, ambulances, and surreality
2/23/12 – Look out below! The chickens love to roost on the screen door in the coop. They will ride it back and forth when you walk in. 2/24/12 – Cold, rain, streetlights. Another dose of surreality. 2/25 – Still in the camera, on film! 2/26/12 – Medic 9 and our BLS backup.
Project 366 – 39, 40, 41
I reached the end of the week feeling short on photographs, but a spin through the Photostream saved the day. 2/8 – I spent the day in the Training Division. The class was good, but the biggest thing I learned is that I can’t stand the commute. I haven’t had to do the 9-5 BostonContinue reading “Project 366 – 39, 40, 41”
Save the puppies!
Got your attention? On Saturday, 2/11 I will be spinning with a team from my gym in the MSPCA’s 9th Annual Tour de Pooch. All money raised will go to support the operation of MSPCA’s Nevins Farm in Methuen, MA. Nevins is a major local animal shelter and the only one in Massachusetts capable ofContinue reading “Save the puppies!”
