Not afraid to take the path of maximum resistance. Too loud. Habitually overdressed. More responsible than you think.

Going to see my friend sing Bulgarian folk music with the Mila Vocal Ensemble at the Amsterdam.

Been working on Christmas gifts. All the material was from thrift stores.
From left to right: a circular pie carrier and hand shaped oven mitt in green holly print fabric, two red and yellow crochet dishcloths in the shape of a flower, two red quilted square oven mitts with red ribbon fabric accents, two quilted square pot holders with snowmen fabric, two purple and green crochet dishcloths, and a patchwork rectangular casserole carrier. The inside of the patchwork casserole carrier, open showing a casserole pan.

I'm a bike lane and I am coming for your parking!

Ugh! A prime truck is blocking the bike lane!

Both are scary!

A very handsome striped cat on a floral bedspread. He is looking intensely at the camera since he is always intense. The laptop repair was $190. I highly recommend Highland Computer Repair on Hamline Ave.

Marvin: a Story in Three Acts
This cat does not give a single fuck about what you want or think. This cat is about to bitch slap your ass. This cat says go fuck yourself. I can be on this table.

I needed a giant Tom face in my feed.
Seven lit carved pumpkins on a brick wall with orange lights. One, with a green arrow pointing at it, is carved "Tom Rules."

8 pumpkins in the rain really tested my brakes getting back down the hill.
A maroon Trek bike with a very old beaten up Burley trailer filled with pumpkins. The bike is at a rack that is crowded by giant boxes of pumpkins in a parking lot.

14 years ago I was deciding whether to go to my midwife appointment or take a nap. Good thing I went to the appointment because Elliot was born less than 3 hours later!

Happy 14 years to my ever challenging, surprising, and tenacious youngest child.

What this vegetarian married into. It's a family farm, but really an industrial operation run by a family of 5th generation farmers.

Jim says, "A guy has to have a leap of faith to do the fence line."
The view from the cab of a combine harvester on the edge of a field. A metal fence is just to the left.

Men fixing things. There is a lot of cursing.
Men laying under a combine harvester. Something is wrong. They are arguing.

Thoma Trucking. These trucks take the corn to the siloes. There are a lot of them. This is why Bill has had a CDL since he was 18. It is super hot when he talks farming.
The cab of a semi. It is red and says in silver letters "Thoma Trucking."

My house when I bought it a decade ago and now.
The most boring, bland house you can imagine except for a crazy roof line that forms a secret patio. No tress, plants, flowers. The house is beige. The same house but bright Lego colors and a natural yard. Trees. The side of the most boring, bland house you can imagine except for a crazy roof line that forms a secret patio.

Walking past turkeys always makes me nervous. 🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃
A street corner looking at a sidewalk and boulevard in a residential area. There is a white car heading the opposite direction as me. Five large wild turkeys - four on the boulevard and one in the street.

I am getting my house painted Make Your Neighbors Wish They Had an HOA Yellow. The painters showed me and asked, "Are you sure?"😄
The side of a house with wood siding. The foundation is painted really bright yellow. The trim is very bright blue. The rest is a muted yellow with white primer.
