Intrusiveness of flowers.
G.
“Intrusiveness of flowers is brooked even by troubled hearts.
They enter and then knock—then chide their ruthless sweetness, and then remain forgiven.
May these molest as fondly!”
(L540) - Emily Dickinson.

Flowers shout like a visual assault, based on the phrase above.

Wow, what a start! The altitude, the heavy loaded bikes and the cold at night challenge us. But the sight of the bright yellow aspens is worth every effort. The moose are also on the move here in Colorado and so we often find ourselves completely surprised in front of one.

Good morning. 🍂🍃🐶

18 April 2025

I’ve been staring at muddy water spots on the bottom of my office door for days now. I really should grab something to wipe them off. A detective conducting a splash analysis would probably conclude that one of my dogs came in from outside, wandered over to my office, and did that signature shaky, splashy thing that wet dogs do. The spots are pretty low on the door, so my money’s on Ben. That’s a solid guess, considering Ben usually makes his presence known by shaking and producing the unmistakable flapping sound of his long ears. Oh well, living with dogs requires patience and the occasional cleanup on aisle seven. Speaking of dogs, Charlie just strolled in to remind me that mealtime is right around the corner.

"Dogs are better than human beings because they know but do not tell." - Emily Dickinson

Spring’s New Palette The image showcases a close-up of Chinese tallow leaves, predominantly diamond-shaped with rounded edges on two sides. The leaves exhibit a vibrant mix of green, reddish, and purple hues, reflecting the fresh growth of spring. The reddish and purple tones are particularly striking, signaling the vitality of new life. The background features a soft, blurred green, enhancing the focus on the intricate details and colors of the leaves.

Good morning. 🍂🍃🍂

13 April 2025

Ben is barking—it’s almost mealtime. Meanwhile, Charlie is staring at me with his tail wagging enthusiastically. I could feed them early, but rules are rules. I’ve only been awake for about 20 minutes, and as usual, I’m trying to put my thoughts into writing. After only 20 minutes of being awake, my mind feels pretty empty. Lately, I’ve been considering buying a second EGO 5Ah battery. There’s the BA2800 and the BA2800T—the latter costs about $100 more than the former. Essentially, the choice boils down to spending $200 or $300, but there must be more to it than just the price. It’s intriguing how much these batteries cost…

“Shutting off the thought process is not rejuvenating; the mind is like a car battery – it recharges by running.” - Bill Watterson

Tupelo Leaves in Contrast The image showcases two black tupelo leaves up close. One leaf remains green but is dotted with brown spots, possibly signaling age or slight damage. The other leaf has turned a vibrant orange-red, illustrating the striking changes that come with autumn. The leaves are set against a dark background, which enhances the contrast and makes their colors pop. Together, they beautifully capture the transition between seasons and nature’s flair for color.

An #abandoned #house near our school playground. #SilentSunday
I've been studying in this school for 11 years and this house was still in that place, not demolished yet. We don't know what happened to it, but a classmate told me that it was meant to be a clinic before. I remember a long time ago, my old classmates played some ghostly pranks on the porch of that house which I didn't participate in, thinking it's #haunted.

Good morning. 🍁🍁🍁

21 March 2025

Are you ever in a bad mood for now reason at all? I think it happens to all of us. When it happens to me, I usually just get quiet and mope around, but when I'm like that is not a good time to accidently bump into me.

My mother made me a Dammit Doll—a simple creation crafted from a couple of pieces of cloth, stuffed and sewn together, with buttons for eyes, yarn for hair, and a ribbon with a bell attached. A 3x5 card is tied to the ribbon, featuring these words:

"When you feel you want to throw the phone or kick the desk and shout. Here's a little dammit doll you cannot do without. Just grab it by its legs and find a place to slam it. And as you whack the stuffing out. Yell dammit, dammit, dammit."

"When angry, count to four; when very angry, swear." - Mark Twain

"Do not meddle in the affairs of Wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger." - J. R. R. Tolkien

Three Purple Stars The image showcases three stunning, star-shaped sweetgum leaves with a vibrant purple color. These leaves have a glossy texture with clearly defined veins, creating a striking contrast against the softly blurred background of green and brown tones. The lighting draws attention to their rich hues and intricate details, making them the focus of the composition.
