I'm excited about therapy. I have a new psychologist and she is so good. Can see a lot of healing and growth from this.

I've been told that the local stray pups might soon have a forever home...

I recently adopted a dog abandoned in a park. Wild that people just drop them off. Mine was in a dog park, at least, so I guess they assumed someone would care and just take him?

Our park isn't particularly a dog park, but dogs are definitely welcome. Our park is a water park with a splash pad and kids play area, a couple of pavilions, a few wide open fields, a fishing pier with two covered pavilions of its own to fish from, a walking track and a boat ramp.

Even our city mayor comes out to the park occasionally to host parties, and those parties can get huge!

So yeah, even when we're too busy to go out to feed them, other people have been helping with the good cause. Shit, even a couple of passing homeless people have brought them food too.

I knew it was just a matter of time before people talked around enough to try to find them a proper forever home. They haven't quite been adopted just yet, but from what I heard yesterday from a neighbor that lives near the park is they'll probably be adopted soon.

I start sea turtle patrol in a couple hours! Which is fancy for I walk a section of beach before the sun comes up looking for evidence that a mama turtle has made a nest. If I find one, I call it in, and a biologist & team will come out to survey the nest, possibly relocate it if necessary above the high tide line, and put a cage over it to protect it from coyotes and tourists. But there have only been 3 nests laid so far this season. It's kind of a slow year. So I'm not expecting to find anything. But i might, which is cool, and the sunrises here are beautiful. Exercise, beach, and sunrise is not a bad way to start the day.

Winter is coming to an end. I'm going to start planning my garden and building raised beds.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

How cold is it in Australia where you live now?

I can't imagine the winters being that cool at all.

I'm surprised you can't farm year-round.

Running a session of DnD tomorrow with my friends for the first time in a month and a half or so. The party (currently in the Feywild) is about to meet a sentient hill that's protecting a goblin that has a key they need.

My girlfriend got a new job and so I'm excited to redo our budget spreadsheet and see how much faster we pay off our house.

7 more days where I may, or may not die. It's going to be thrilling to find out which way it goes.

This week I may pay my rent without a late fee for the first time in four months.
