  1. A new part of my journey…

    ...comes with new routines and challenges... When I was in a relationship, my routine got formed by work and my partner. When I lost the ability to work, my routine shifted more about being there for my partner... But, I found out that I needed some different things, and when I tried to get them, it wasn't appreciated... So when I divorced, and moved with Arwen, I had no real routine. I was so terribly depressed, and I just lived to care for Arwen, as good as I could. I abused my own health for a while, and I know that Arwen's health suffered a bit because of it as well. But, she never complained, and she made sure that I was slowly getting better. Taking better care of her, and myself. Arwen and I found a nocturnal routine worked best for me. Arwen easily adjusted to it, she loved the long nightly walks, where I allowed her all the time to sniff and enjoy her things. We were quite a team together, and when we moved to the new home, it took only a little while to adjust. But then... Surgery, another surgery, and then... She passed away. I struggled to find a routine, and slowly was able to adjust the old one a bit. But now... My journey has changed, as Koa had entered the path at my side, and he has his own needs and wants. And, I had to adjust my routine, to allow Koa time and all, to show me what he needed, and to slowly learn him to be OK on his own... It's a work in progress... […]

  3. Adjusting…

    ...challenging, but worth it! Since Wednesday, April 22nd, my life has had a major change... He's a fluffy brown piranha, although his fluff is already slowly changing into more rough hairs. As I start writing this, he's been with me for two weeks. And, as you may have been following on this blog here, it's been a challenging two weeks for sure. I knew I had to change my routine. I knew that life as I knew it would be put on hold for a while. Koa was coming into a new home. Away from his siblings. Away from the familiar sounds and smells. And now, there was someone else caring for him, giving him rules that didn't make sense to him. Expecting things from him... Not at first, but as time goes by, they expect him to learn and adjust... He doesn't know/understand that both him and me need to make those adjustments. We both need to learn. And.. We're doing our best. 💪🏻 […]

  5. Packing up 🎒

    As I write this, it’s Friday… And for the upcoming time, I guess Friday will be a harder day to get through. Every Friday that comes now, means it’s ben another week without my lovely sweetheart… 🤎 And I still miss her so much… 8 weeks now since she passed away… 8 weeks without her love and boops… 😢

    But this Friday, I’ve had a busy but good morning. But of course, when it was 9:30, I automatically thought of her again… And this afternoon, I will be “busy” packing up (it’s usually a quick task for me, as I don’t have that much with me to pack up). So I will write this, pack all I can, and then I will probably work on some more AI texts for the snaps that I took yesterday of Burg Greifenstein.

  6. #Ukraine 🇺🇦 🕯️ #WeStillCannotLookAway

    The #children sat in stunned silence, their #fragile bodies still #tethered to medical drips outside the #okhmatdyt children’s hospital in central #Kyiv
    They had not long emerged from the #hospitals dark, #dusty #bombshelter and their eyes were still #adjusting to the light.

    A woman rushed past, cradling an #infant covered with #blood. #Okhmadyt

    I completely agree
    Sadly, this has taught me, how terrible I am at choosing "friends"

  10. I keep catching myself trying to game the algorithm—but there is no algorithm.

    The stuff in my feed is what I asked #Mastodon to put in my feed. No metagaming needed! It's a strange feeling to realize how I've trained myself to do this over the years.
