Semi-retired, book lover, co-parent (she’s going to college?), and dog aficionado.

A corner of a yard with wooden fence behind and chain link in front. There are some mounded rocks covered by a thin layer of dirt, tall grass going to seed, and a mix of spearmint and oregano plants trying to see which can overwhelm the other. This happened because I used to dump out potted plants when they were done. Clearly not as “done” as I thought.
A white and red husky mix asleep, spread out to almost her full length and taking up most of the couch. There's a teal sheet covering the couch, with several pillows in shades of brown surrounding the dog.
View of backyard, pool in the foreground, fence, shop wall painted blue, neighbor’s roof, and then group of tall evergreens half in shadow, half lit by setting sun.
Span of lawn next to pebbled concrete walkway with weeds pulled all along the pathway. I would say I got 90% of all the weeds.
Overgrown Japanese Maple looking something like Cousin It from the Addams Family
A few of the tulips emerging from the dreaded vinca. I would get rid of the vinca except that is impossible.
Two piles of weeds from a stretch of 6x30 foot grass that is overgrown with weeds. I’ve done about 1/4 of the total so far. Some creeping buttercup has started growing and I’m considering leaving it if the dogs will leave it alone.
Small black and white dog standing on a blue armchair with a football game on the tv in the background. The dog is a chihuahua/toy poodle/dachshund mix with poodle like hair on her back half and a dachshund’s elongated back. She is full grown at 10 lbs.
Large purple heather plant against a backdrop of a larger green bush, rocks to the left, a blue shed wall to the right. The top of the heather plant has been flattened as if a heavy weight fell on it from above.
Hazy picture taken through a window and screen showing a large white dog settled in the middle of a large heather plant while a small black and white dog stares at her from a concrete step. Large dog is quite satisfied that the small dog cannot reach her while she’s in the heather.

Goofy looking husky/golden/border collie mix Maggie on a sofa with a crosshatched blanket behind her.
Maggie, a white-hued husky/golden mix posing proudly on a moss covered log in the forest. Big smile as she awaits a treat and a “good girl” for achieving this marvelous feat (that she will repeat a dozen times on our walk).
A white husky mix and black Aussie mix on a snow topped log with snow falling around them. They both have big smiles and wagging tails.
Path of pocket gopher tunnel exposed by dogs digging in green grass. They did not catch it.
Elderly black and tan chow mix resting on green grass next to a purple blanket in dappled sunlight. This was Martha’s last day and we treasure how happy she was to share her time with us that afternoon.
White and gold husky mix dog sitting on a tile floor wearing an orange harness under a special wrap that covers her legs to prevent licking hotspots on her elbows. She is smiling because she gets loads of treats when she lets me put it on her.
White and gold husky mix lying on a teal sofa with her tail tucked against her body proving that it is as long as her whole body. Maggie is half tail (by length, not weight).

Small black and white chihuahua mix and a husky mix sharing a bed while they play dreidel for treats.
Small black and white dog drapes herself across large dog’s back as they both look at the fairly deep hole they’ve dug in the yard. The grass is all brown so it’s hard to tell it’s actually a very rich grass lawn they are destroying.
White husky/golden mix lies on white/gold tile with a black-faced chihuahua/poodle/dachshund mix sitting between her front legs. They are both staring straight into camera.
Blood covered walls with “Caption this with the 2nd to last text you sent.”

I had to replant most of my herbs because the bed they were in was falling apart. This is lovage, thyme, oregano, tarragon, and marjoram.
The photographs of the person of interest, released by the F.B.I., show a man wearing a baseball cap, dark sunglasses and a black long-sleeve shirt with an image on it. In one of the photographs, he appears to be walking up a stairwell.

A neighbor’s front yard with everything growing fully. They have tomatoes, carrots, squash, lettuce, broccoli, basil, rhubarb and more
Abundant green bean vines have overwhelmed their trellis and the many 6ft bamboo sticks placed to help them grow. They are reaching for the wind home hanging from the eaves and using it to make a break for the roof. They are getting trimmed back this week.
Large (20x40ft) backyard pool, blue water, shadows at the far end from the trees by the creek, and a comfortably warm not hot August afternoon.
Large 2.5 year husky/golden mix (Maggie) next to tiny chihuahua/toy poodle/dachshund puppy (Tiramisu). They are on a patterned white and grey sheet looking like they are ready for mischief. They are best friends and the little one is a typical little sister and annoys her big sister incessantly.
Tiramisu, a mostly white dog with a mostly black face has me pinned to the bed with her full 10 lbs holding me in place. Tira is a chihuahua/toy poodle/dachshund mix
Maggie, a white with gold ears husky/golden mix on her grayish bed with her Halloween lambie toy (it has a witches hat). She is staring straight at the camera.
Bounty from my garden, a dozen small yellow onions harvested early because a mole has been digging in their bed, some orange Sungold cherry tomatoes, snap peas, and three Nantes carrots, one with a bite taken off the end due to dog interference.

Two dogs on an aqua colored blanket with the big dog, Maggie, laying down, and the small dog Tiramisu straddling her back crosswise with her front legs on the blanket and the rest of her stretched out over Maggie. Maggie, a husky/golden mix is a bit over 2 years, Tira is around 7 mos and came up with DNA showing chihuahua, poodle, dachshund, and a half dozen other breeds. She has the softest hair in waves, not quit curls. She got her name because she resembles the colors of tiramisu the dessert.
Small black and white chihuahua mix using her sister husky mix as a ramp to play with her ball.
Two dogs in kitchen, tan giant Puggle (Rosie) stands between a wooden chair and her food pail, while her new puppy sister dog sits on the pail. Puppy on pail (Martha) looks like a baby GSD, but was actually a Chow/Australian cattle dog mix. She looked much more chow as she got older, but was always taken for a GSD mix in public.
