Donkey time is getting closer...
Sheep by a wall on a hill
On the hills this week. Poor sheep - it's so dry.
It has been hard to breathe under the weight of despair about the genocide in Gaza and my complicity as a citizen and taxpayer in the USA. I gave, and hope others will, also.
Thanks for alerting me to this work. Lauren. Have given.
By the way, reading your book Arcadia in a book group.

Wishing you well.
I hope you've recovered well, Nancy.
It's interesting that we use the word 'hate'. Turns out our instincts were spot-on.
Well done exposing this.
That's appalling.
I hated it too. The attitude they had to people they met was awful. And I didn't buy the miracle recovery from what I know is a terrible and incurable disease.
Bloody hell.
Thanks, Kik!
What kind of review is this?!
'Lovely short read. Not my cup of tea this time.'
I did my first parkrun a year ago. Today was my 42nd! Time on my first run was 38:45. Time today was 37:27. Not a PB, but conditions were humid. I'm pleased enough!
Did my final parkrun as a 74-year-old today. Onwards and upwards!
Must read it.
Nicely done, Oona puffin and Vets for Pets!

It’s okay to feel a little blue sometimes.
Take a breath, be kind to yourself, and remember—this feeling won’t last forever
It won’t…..
