The beginning of what will be a basket of flowers. #crochet 🧶

Part of Morro Rock and The Laughing Man rock at Morro Bay.

Happy Sunday! Can you see the laughing man in the rock? #MorroBay

Origami elephant in a red patterned paper

🐘 Good morning 🐘
Origami attempt #2. I am not very good at this haha. I kind of like that I’m not though. It’s good to be a beginner.

a black and white photo of a man laying on a stretcher Alt: Scene from the classic movie Frankenstein where the monster has come alive and is getting up off the table.

It’s alive! It’s alive! I want to try the black ones shaped like shells, or is it snails? 🐌 🐚

An origami duck in red patterned paper.

Taking the edge off at the end of the news week: I got an origami-a-day calendar that comes with pretty papers and doesn’t that sound relaxing to do? They get progressively more difficult as you go but it starts out more basic. I present to you my very first origami, it is called Chinese Duck. 🦆

Those look yummy! 🍓🌱

Tall clouds rising over the hills of Estero Bay at the beach in Morro Bay.

Big cloud day in Morro Bay. ☁️

A mug of coffee.

This massive mug holds four cups of delicious coffee. Alas, it is a decaf day. At least the mug is pretty. ☕️

I was in Tucson last week and three times I saw super close calls where a Waymo would make a sudden lane change where it slipped between two cars dangerously close and so fast that the human drivers barely had time to react. Future accidents are inevitable to be sure.

Yay for being back! A reminder not to take this awesome platform for granted. 💙🦋💙

Just a squirrel sipping water from a puddle after a storm. 🐿️

Scene from the classic move The Desk Set showing the EMERAC computer.

Haha I keep trying to post this response and it says ‘not enough resources’. It’s giving EMERAC vibes.

I’m an independent Nichiren with the emphasis on independent. I do my own thing, it helps me to not get dragged into triggering areas of upset (like legalistic tendencies in some practices). 📿

Beautiful colors 🌈

😍 Looks where I live! Central Coast, CA.

The Pope has a Master’s of Divinity & is a Doctor of Canon Law & has taught Moral Theology. His background in theology and his Bachelor’s in Mathematics tells me all I need to know. Vance is way out of his depth & the sheer arrogance of his trying to school the Pope on anything is infuriating.

View of the stacks in Morro Bay and clouds over the hills.

Nice clouds this week.

If you cannot tell, you should consult your physician.

Big Bear Bald Eagle Live Nest - Cam 1 YouTube video by FOBBV CAM

Watching the Big Bear eagles defend their eaglets from ravens. They’ve been fending them off all morning. The ravens are not giving up. It’s a life and death struggle. #addbirder

All the endless disgusting things that he has posted including sh**ting on the American people and the Obamas as apes, and NOW they finally are mad? 😡

Yay! The new owners at the gym replaced the Fox News station that was always on one of the monitors in front of the ellipticals and treadmills.

There is still beauty in the world.

It’s so ethically reprehensible. 😢

Apple and poppyseed Hungarian pastries.

I looked up Hungarian pastries and oh my they look delish! 🇭🇺🎉

Beach in Morro Bay, surfers in wetsuits in the sand stretching before heading out to surf.

Surfers warming up before heading out. Morning in Morro Bay. 🏄‍♂️

A page from a food journal that lists macros.

I decided to try a food journal to see if I’m meeting my #vegan macros. I didn’t mark energy/activity levels cuz they are off (just returned from traveling). Am pleased w/ 1st day results, very informative, can clearly see where I can tweak. Highly recommend! #veganfood

Lemon layer cake with a wedding cake topper that has a bride and groom on it.

Found an old-timey cake topper for a little wedding party that we had for a young couple. Yes the cake is leaning haha. 🍰

I stood in line with friends for five hours to see the premiere. There were Imperial Stormtroopers lined up the sides of the of the theater. It was so crowded we had to sit in the very first row. So when the opening text scrolled up we were already in awe because it was so big…
