I will be adding a critters page within a week that will list out various critters I’ve seen here, with images when I have them. It will also have a sub page for monarchs with some dead basic links to sites that folks can follow to learn more about them. Over the very long term, I hope to add more sub pages for further info on the critters here. Continue reading “Critters Page incoming…”

Crazy week, and I forgot to mention…
This first bit I might have mentioned and forgot I did. My mister was insistent on transplanting the grapes despite my explaining more than once why August is a terrible time for such. (Yes, they’re not doing well. Why do you ask?) Continue reading “Crazy week, and I forgot to mention…”
Guardianship update: 23rd August 2018 #4
At last we reach the final installment of the sad day update. Continuing on from the last post, how are the five? One, I recently started posting about in another update, so here’s the rest of Junior’s story. Continue reading “Guardianship update: 23rd August 2018 #4”

Day 3 of a different “I don’t live there”
Today is now the 3rd day that when I try to use the “Get current location” feature under “More Options” on WordPress, it is trying to say I am somewhere else (Fitchburg). Unlike before, this mistake is closer in real distance, but it’s still wrong. I’ll report back when it rights itself again.
Guardianship update: 23rd August 2018 #1

Guardianship update: 21st August 2018
This is the chrysalis that suffered a fall a few days ago that I had not yet reported happening because that day was sad for a few reasons, and I’ve been waiting to post an update that would have at least one bright spot from that day. Continue reading “Guardianship update: 21st August 2018”
