An offering of this best boy I met on the street one day
Just wanted to thank everyone for their rather raw sharing of feelings yesterday. I realized late last night what my biggest fear was: that something so obvious to me wasn't obvious to a majority of people. It was rather isolating and sobering. upon reflection, ya'll sharing your shock or grief or whatever helped a LOT. So thank you.

No pets currently, but hereβs a pic of the nice maggie that spent the day in my backyard a while back
I give you shoebox cat for pet appreciation day.
Pet day? Hello from the top of the cupboards where carrier avoidance due to V E T appointment is ongoing
Ok, old pic, but repeat incomingβ¦
I don't have a pet, can I post a picture of my sister instead? That's basically the same thing right?
sure
it's really just about reminding ourselves that there is good in the world π
Ok, wtf is going on?! Iβve heard at least 15 units, there are choppers not showing on flight radar, train line is down and nothing on VicEmergency.
As a general rule lots of emergency services + train + no info tends to mean someone hit by a train. Although I think when there was a suspected bomb at Ringwood the situation was much the same, although that had roads around the station blocked off too.
Yeah, I get that. Though one not long ago I managed to figure out it was a cow hit not a person. The choppers not showing up when I can clearly hear them is disconcerting.

We rent, so don't have pets. This is Cara:
She was a sweet old girl belonging to dad (and Mum before she passed). This photo is my kids saying goodbye to her - it was her last visit before she had to go.
I don't really miss her like she's shown here, but boy do I miss her when she was young! I could take her on a 10km run and she was so fast that she made me faster trying to keep pace. Jack Russells will run forever if you let them.
