i need to make some sort of visual diary of things i'm doing for a discipline at university but my life is too boring for it. i tried to go out today to see if i could see interesting things but the best i saw was some old balloons in a square garden.

it remind that i used to take pictures of dead birds i found in the city and once a friend said it was creepy and that my life is too boring for me to pay attention in those things.

That really irks me greatly as, I'd love to see what fictionally happened to a game hunter in Rod Serling's Night Gallery happen to many of these atrocious monsters.


You don't have to be vegan or even animal rights to be horrified at people who want to kill animals just for the "sport" of killing them. I had not heard of a caracal and googled it. What a beautiful cat!

I think that pictures of dead birds might be just the kind of thing that some people would consider art. As well as balloons in a garden. I think you have some great inner vision and should keep taking pictures. Many artists create disturbing pictures for a reason.

I know it is a bad day when I am hanging out in the "unhappy day" thread.

I lost a battle trying to protect a vulnerable person.

The agency in charge of approvals just reversed its decision on purchasing an air conditioner and generator for a client dependent on oxygen and CPAP. Well, they'll pay for the air conditioner and the generator, but not for the equipment needed to run and install them. Yet another battle.

No, I don’t know if the physical therapist will listen to me.

you still can ask the physical therapist, the worst they could say is no, but I think they will probably say yes as that is a standard treatment modality. please ask. you don't have to be in pain.

Found a stillborn baby wild animal outside my house (I'd rather not say what species or I'll start crying again) and buried the poor little thing under the lantanas in my back garden. They are lush and beautiful and a fitting resting place for the little one. Breaks my heart.

Oh guys, thank you all!! !!

I've been the pallbearer for several wild animals since I moved here - rabbits and mice and voles and small birds - and I saw a duck's nest pillaged by crows before any egg could hatch, this spring. It does not get easier, and I wonder how country dwellers can bear it, honestly.

My front garden, planted by the previous owner of my home, is in real trouble - mites in the spruce despite heavy and frequent treatment with organic things, and the poor rosebushes seem to have the witch's broom virus (also mite borne) - all of this due to the extreme rain this year. My back gardens, planted by me, are thriving, literally bursting with lantana and geranium (white geranium, yellow and white lantanas). So I put the baby to rest there, where there is life and no mortal shadow over the plantings.

I know this is part of nature, but it's still hard. This coming week I am consulting a landscaper who gives Old Poot Discounts, so I can remove the rosebushes, which is really sad. But has to be done.

Hugs to you all.
