A dark evening: kimberlykg.com/2025/02/2…
Yesterday evening, we had only our second storm this winter. This one came in the form of an atmospheric river along with some wild wind. We (the neighbors and I) anticipated losing our power and indeed we did. Wi…
This little guy has become such a constant companion that I’ve begun naming him. Lately, he’s Robbie the Ribbiter.
I’ve never seen him, but sometimes I’m fairly certain he’s inside with me. This was recorded in my basement.

Yes, we’ll be there.

I guess he likes me.
My youngest is thriving in college but he’s so busy that we haven’t done a family call in a couple weeks and the last text from him just said “wonderful, thank”.
He’s coming up so we can see a play this weekend though, so I guess I’ll let it slide. Ha!

Maker Skill Trees! What a cool idea this is. https://github.com/sjpiper145/MakerSkillTree/tree/main
@gryphondreamer.bsky.social Hi friend!
Finished reading: Tiamat’s Wrath by James S. A. Corey This book was more exciting and I like where we’ve landed now. Excited to read the final book in the series next. 📚
Some Bluesky threads that helped today:
I need a word that means “Task that’s annoying to do at the time you’re reminded of it”.
Examples: Kindle needs charging, just as I’ve snuggled into bed to read. The backup camera needs to be cleaned, right as I’m ready to get on my way.
Does this exist? Can we make one up, if not?
Finished reading: The Familiar: A Novel by Leigh Bardugo 📚
I listened to this as an audiobook. I enjoyed both the story and the narration.
Currently reading: Tiamat’s Wrath by James S. A. Corey I’m anxious to see how the series is wrapped up. 📚
My son got home today (end of first term of sophomore year at college is this week), immediately announced he was starving and then fell asleep as soon as he had food. Some things never change, it seems. 🥰
Matt set up some fun LED lights on the house that can be controlled with the WLED app. Our Sunday evening gathering enjoyed the different settings, but the littlest ones were most excited.
PDX airport getting some love here.
If you’re in PDX over the next few months, definitely visit the Exquisite Creatures event at OMSI! We went a couple weeks ago and I’m planning to go back with the kids soon.
Not the best photo, but it represents pure joy. The blanket on the left covering kid #1, the blanket on the right covering kid #2 and the two kitties on my legs making me extra, extra warm.
Happy Thanksgiving! Both kids are home so I’m happy as can be. The daughter brought her cats who have been helping us cook all day. :) They’re adorable as you can see.
The Onion continues to bring me joy.
Some sights around the neighborhood on a recent walk. This is my favorite time of year in Oregon.
My son and a friend of his took a short roadtrip (his first as an adult) to go see redwoods in Crescent City this weekend. Of the photos he shared, this is my favorite. Ha!
Currently reading: Persepolis Rising (The Expanse, #7) by James S.A. Corey 📚
Looking forward to reading books that are not part of a series when I get through these next 3 books.
Finished reading: Babylon’s Ashes by James S.A. Corey 📚
