Declan’s first sight of the ocean, first time hearing the roar. Made lots of dog friends.

Drinking my coffee, reading submissions… and my little border collie puppy, Declan is wrestling a coconut. He’s herded it soccer style, chawed at it… but fought and fought to be able to pick it up. A hard battle, won.

Solid napday! This crazy baby doubled his nap time today when he discovered the joy of snuggling next to me. My arm went numb! What a 💕 love! Such a happy boy.

I see you made toast.

On the list of nice things about Declan is he is very gentle about food.

All the cute things Declan does, and here I am obsessed with his rabbity, chunky feet.

Stole this photo. Full moon just over my grandparents’ former house at the lake I grew up on. We all have our personal canon of the places, people, mythology, culture & out-of-proportion memories that steep into our being. This place in in my top 3.

Ooh, how to describe this! A laptop and notebook on a sofa with scattered pillows, behind a mirrored coffee table topped with a bowl of oranges/limes, a bowl of red and green apples, a vase of peonies, a candle and coffee!

My post-Thanksgiving ‘office.’ Everyone’s cleared out of the house. I’ve got the equivalent of 6 weeks’ worth of writing tasks to get done. A new flash. A revision. A ton of novel transcription and assembly.
