Interested in so many things! books and cats and insects and birds and all sorts of critters and plants and forests and mountains.

I used to do a lot of handwork, knitting and sewing and weaving and embroidery and dyeing and guitar and cello, but rheumatoid disease is making me figure out how to have a smaller life.

Off-grid in the North Cascades, solar panels with a backup generator, wood heat

Really serious about not getting covid

It appears people no longer know how to operate one of these. Absolutely no one knows what it is anymore (probably for the last 5 years).

@ve3qbz @virgilpierce @ai6yr My neighbor's dogs, 600 feet away through the woods, let me know if I go outside.

Seeing secondhand reports of aurora being visible in South Florida (Miami). Anyone out there able to confirm?

I swear the marine layer has an ever-so-purple tint to it, LOL. Or I've been staring at too many purple photos here.

@Catlynn @ai6yr thank you! Usually it’s pouring rain! I’m hopeful tonight :)

@Catlynn @ai6yr it’s not quite dark enough here yet for any distinct aurora but the sky is definitely a more pinkish blue than usual. Periwinkle.

Washington state just redid the Covid dashboard, it’s now “respiratory illness”, county info has disappeared, there’s regional but it’s by “Better Health Together”, “Elevate Health”, “Thriving Together NCW”, I have not a single clue what those are. They’re working very hard to make it more difficult for me to stay alive. It's the worst, messiest redesign of a previously functional information page that I've ever seen.

In the US, we may be about to lose all of our reporting on hospitalizations. An HHS bulletin from November noted that hospital's COVID reporting was extended “from the end of the current PHE (Public Health Emergency) through April 30, 2024.”

I hope we continue to see hospitalization data, but we may not. The US has seen 265,966 COVID hospitalizations in the first four months of this “post-pandemic” “COVID is over” year.

@augieray my 6th friend to die was about 2 months ago, but everyone thinks it’s over :/

Bear is still high :/ He didn’t sleep at all last night, or today. He has to be in contact with me at all times, if I stand up he’s twining around my ankles, if I sit down he’s either on my lap or sitting on my feet. But he wouldn’t come to bed last night. And he can’t stop making biscuits, his little hands and wrists are going to be sore. I hope it wears off soon. Fern keeps hissing at him because he smells wrong and acts wrong, she probably thinks he’s a doppelgänger.

Wastewater monitoring doesn’t work well in rural areas where we have our own septic systems, but looking at recent local Facebook discussions, keeping track of zinc cough lozenge sales would be a great indicator of covid surges.

Is this something interesting? I’m not good at knowing what other people like.

Any hiking peeps have good advice for avoiding knee pain when hiking downhill? Besides trekking poles.

I don’t know if the grayer one is pregnant or just successfully food-aggressive

A fawn snacking in the middle of a patch of wildflowers, lit by the sun. It and another one walked out of the woods near me right after the eclipse ended

Chipmunks at my old place - there was one I could pet. This morning I almost got to pet one here. 😊
