A Sense of Doubt blog post #4012 - Photo Dump April 2025 - February 2026

It's time for a phone dump!

No organization principle has been employed.

Writing at a Portland Coffee Shop: 2508.08

Using my tablet - this experience is what prompted me to buy a folding, portable keyboard.
I used geo-location data to retrieve where this photo was taken.



Trying to start the practice of riding to town for errands. These pictures from 2507.07. Because of the hills where I live and my bike's struggles to downshift, I did not do this often enough. This year: MORE!



After attending a cohort group at Dharma Rain, I headed down to the Books With Pictures comic convention with a trivia game that I lost soundly: 2506.10.


Visiting Puppy!! Chanelle on 2507.19 - I managed to find her home and reunite her with her owners with the help of Facebook and the Kalama police.

I went to Portland Bookfest Nov. 2025


On a post outside my doctor's office:


I started making stew for the dogs but have had to stop since because of Ellory's dietary issues


Ellory scared the Hell out of me when she stopped eating and drinking around Halloween. We figured out she had a Vitamin B12 deficiency, and we have since learned that she may have other dietary issues or allergies and have put her on a special "hydrolized" diet.

Seen here after I took her to the vet for IV fluids two days in a row.

Why are my initials written on the tag of this shirt? Because my father used to have one, too, and this is how we could tell them apart.

- Days ago: MOM = 3875 days ago & DAD = 530 days ago

- New note - On 1807.06, I ceased daily transmission of my Hey Mom feature after three years of daily conversations. I post Hey Mom blog entries on special occasions. I post the days since ("Days Ago") count on my blog each day, and now I have a second count for Days since my Dad died on August 28, 2024. I am now in the same time zone as Google! So, when I post at 10:10 a.m. PDT to coincide with the time of Mom's death, I am now actually posting late, so it's really 1:10 p.m. EDT. But I will continue to use the time stamp of 10:10 a.m. to remember the time of her death and sometimes 13:40 EDT for the time of Dad's death. The blog entry numbering in the title has changed to reflect total Sense of Doubt posts since I began the blog on 0705.04, which include Hey Mom posts, Daily Bowie posts, and Sense of Doubt posts. Hey Mom posts will still be numbered sequentially. New Hey Mom posts will use the same format as all the other Hey Mom posts; all other posts will feature this format seen here.
