Thought I'd update you on the latest member of my furry 4-legged family - little hammie's been with me just over a week now. I named him "Pippin" (after the hobbit in Lord of the Rings, it just suited him - he's an adventurous little thing!). I'm so pleased with how well he's settled in... I'd been told in the shop he wasn't yet tame and worried he'd be shy. However, whoever bred him handled him well (or he's just an exceptionally confident little hammie!) cause from the start he's been a happy and nosy little character... After 24hrs, I started stroking him, then a little while later, gently scooping him up in my hands]. At first, he scurried off quickly, but now he will happily sit or walk over my hands for a few minutes at a time. He's never once tried to bite or anything :)
He goes out for little adventures each evening in his ball. Of course it's hard to tell with such a tiny creature but I think he really enjoys the explorations around our downstairs. He rolls up and down the hall, the living room and the kitchen, stopping only to sniff an interesting item in his path, give his face a quick wash... or, to investigate Barney!! I'd originally planned to keep dog and hamster apart, particularly when Pippin was in his ball - as Barney is ball obsessed and also a hunter of voles when we're on walks (albeit a very ineffective one!). However as Pip likes to roll everywhere on the ground floor, it wasn't really feasible, so I've taught Barney to be very quiet and calm when Pip's rolling around.
After one quiet but firm "settle down" from me, (he looked a bit too interested on the first evening) he has been good as gold. He actually tries to keep away from Pippin but there's no escape! Pip will spy Barney from up the hall and make a beeline straight for the big dog. He will then sit right up against Barney, sniffing at his paws and fur with obvious interest. Pippin doesn't seem scared, he's happy to groom right next to either dog and doesn't freeze or try and run off... In fact, if I move him away, he often rolls straight back to Barney! Barney lies quietly, deliberately not looking at the hammie and gently moving his paws out the way from time to time. Don't like everything the "Dog Whisperer" says but to use his phrase, Barney's the model of a dog in a "calm, submissive state". Obviously, I wouldn't leave them alone though, it's nice they seem to be co-existing but I wouldn't want Pippin to get hurt...
Anyway, Pippin seems happy in his new home, the dogs have accepted him and he's being very friendly and confident. All going very well really, now, if I can just clicker train him to pose for the camera.... ;-) Haha, will try getting some nicer pics soon, maybe of the odd pair together, reminds me of Bolt and Rhino (if you've seen "Bolt", you'll know what I'm talking about!)

Dear mom,
I made a big mistake, I don't know or I ever gonna forgive myself. I'm a monster, I killed a young boy. He attacked me, it was me or him. I can't continue living with this.
Much love your son,
John.

“Not cry. Fly.
“I can’t fly,” Bran said. “I can’t, I can’t…”
How do you know? Have you ever tried?
The voice was high and thin. Bran looked around to see where it was coming from. A crow was spiraling down with him, just out of touch, following him as he fell. “Help me,” he said.
I’m trying, the crow replied…
The crow took to the air and flapped around Bran’s hand.
“You have wings,” Bran pointed out.
Maybe you do too.
Bran felt along his shoulders, groping for feathers.
There are different kinds of wings, the crow said…
Bran was falling faster than ever. The grey mists howled around him as he plunged toward the earth below. “What are you doing to me?” he asked the crow, tearful.
Teaching you how to fly.
“I can’t fly!”
You’re flying right now.
“I’m falling!”
Every flight begins with a fall, the crow said. Look down.”
― George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones
To see more photos taken by me and to know about my concepts on photography, visit:
I mentioned on another shot that I almost forgot to upload earlier today that in early September, we made a visit to the Bribie Island Butterfly House. Apart from the beautiful butterflies, it has some zany stuff, perhaps artwork and here is one. Evil Knievel and a delicate friend. The Old Man's Beard rather ages him I think!
If you are up that way as the borders reopen or you are a local, drop in and you never know who you may meet!
Kind of has a little fish guts stuck to his beak! LOL!
Spotted this guy sitting low in the tree eating a rather large carp. Little by little I moved up on him as he was focused on eating. It took him a while to finish which allowed me to get off quite a few shots.
Writing to him, I was no longer lonely. I had someone waiting for me across the world in Mexico. I could tolerate anything as long as I had a notepad and a pen and could pour my heart out to him in these letters.

جوتے دو ہی اچھے
جوتے اگر استعمال نہ ہوں تو بھلے کتنے ہی ہوں،کیا ہے؟لیکن اگر استعمال ہو جائیں تو دو بھی بہت ہیں۔
بظاہر ایک غیر مہذب حرکت پر پوری دنیا میںہونے والا ردّ ِ عمل در اصل ایک عالمی ریفرنڈم بھی ہے اور نیا ورلڈ آرڈر بغدادمیں فرعونِ وقت کے آخری دورے پر انہیں دو جوتوں کی سلامی اور کلبِ خبیث کے خطاب کا تحفہ ایک غیرت مند عراقی صحافی منتظر الزیدی نے دیا ہے۔حسینیت کے درس کی اس سے اعلیٰ محفل شاید ہی کبھی سجی ہو۔''غیر مہذب'' منتظر نہ کسی دینی مدرسہ کا طالب علم رہا ہے،نہ القاعدہ اور طالبان کا رکن۔نہ پاکستانی ہے نہ افغانی۔وہ جدید تعلیم حاصل کر کے عراق کے سینئیر ترین صحافیوں میں شمار کیا جانے والا ایک ''ذمّہ دار'' شہری ہے۔غربت،بے روزگاری،نشہ،مذبی انتہا پسندی وغیرہ کے الزامات بھی اس پر نہیں لگ سکتے۔اس کے ریکارڈ میں کوئی نفسیاتی عدم اعتدال کی رپورٹ بھی نہیں ہے۔
منتظر نے بش کو جوتے نہیں مارے بلکہ ایک عالمی فرضِ کفایہ ادا کیا ہے۔ملتِ مرحوم کا قرض ادا کیا ہے۔بے بس کمزور اور نہتّے غلام
انسانوں کی طرف سے دنیا کے سب سے طاقتور،منظم اور عظیم استحصال کے علم بردار ملک امریکہ کو وہ پیغام دیا ہے جو اس سے زیادہ جامع اور موثر انداز میں ممکن نہیں۔صرف ایک ''عمل'' اوراور ایک'' لفظ'' کی شکل میں۔عمل جوتے مارنے کا اور لفظ کتّے کا(کتوں سے معذرت کے ساتھ)۔
دنیا میں پالیسی اسٹڈیز اور اوپینین پولز اور رائے اور رجحان جاننے ، ناپنے او ر تجزیہ کرنے کے تمام تر اداروں اور ان کے طریق ہائے تجزیہ سے زیادہ صحت کے ساتھ کئے جانے والا یہ عمل صدیوں کا قرض تھا جو منتظر زیدی نے ادا کیا ۔
15دسمبر008ء کی صبح واقعی ایک نئی صبح تھی جب زمین پر بسنے والے انسان اپنے اوپر حیوانوں اور درندوں کے جبر سے پسے اور اپنے ارادوں اور دلوں کی کمزوریوں پر کڑھنے کے بجائے احساس فتح مندی کے ساتھ ایک دوسرے سے ملے ۔ انسانی تاریخ میں آ ج تک ایک ساتھ کبھی انسان اتنی بڑی تعداد میں خوش ہو کر شاید ہی ملے ہوں ۔
جوتو ں نے موجودہ عالمی سیاست میں ویسے بھی اہم کردار اد اکیا ہے ۔ہم تو 100جوتے اور 100پیاز کھانے کی ورزش میں پہلوان ہوگئے ہیں بلکہ رستم زماں کا اعزاز حاصل کرچکے ہیں۔جوتے چاٹنے کے بعد اس میں اپنی ہی شکل دیکھ کر ڈرنے میں مہارت حاصل کرلی ہے۔
لیکن جوتوں کا جو استعمال منتظر الزیدی نے کیا ہے یہ تو انسانیت کی معراج ہے جو خودداری اور غیرت کی دین ہ
So, this morning started out like any other morning....my son groaned about getting out of bed and demanded that I fix him pancakes or french toast. I went downstairs, began preheating the oven & got the girls' breakfast taken care of. I turned around to see my son standing in the doorway staring at me. I asked him if I could help him, he responded with "are you even fixing my french toast yet?? And i can't find my shoes." ..........
The morning goes on like this and finally, I got all 3 kids wrangled into the car and on our way to school. During the car ride, my son proceeded to tell me that he hates me and how terrible I am to him. Sigh. (If he only knew how much I love him and how I try every day to make his life better.) He ended up sitting quietly for the rest of the trip. I asked him before he got out of the car if he was ok....he didn't answer....I said, why aren't you speaking to me?? He said "don't you know that saying 'if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all'??" I said I knew of that and he said that it was better for him to keep quiet because he had nothing nice to say to me....then he got out of the car.
So, today's photo is me...keeping it together the best that I can at the moment. I'm sure that by this evening, I will have a smile and rebound nicely, like I always do. And then, it will start all over tomorrow.
Ask him for one!

Most of the focus is spent on the mother and her newborn baby because it was her who gave birth, nursed the baby, etc. But the father also has a very strong, yet different connection to their child.
I remember a moment like this with my own child; just being able to touch, feel and experience his breath on me and just being so proud. A wave of thoughts of teaching him to ride a bike, going hiking, telling stories at night, the adventures of parenthood, seeing him graduate, seeing him off to preschool, college… all in this very instant of holding him close to me. You realize that everything you’ve made of yourself, all of your possessions, all of your accomplishments… none of that is as important as this. Suddenly you feel a huge sense of responsibility and obligation to teach this child everything you know, to protect him and to see he has the best life possible in front of him.
I don’t know what Eddie was thinking here with his 9-day old son Enrique, but his subtle expression helped me realize that being a parent isn’t just a responsibility, it’s a privilege. And I thank God every time I get to see my kids and play with them, discipline them, and even wasting time with them is time well spent.

Spotted this Fellow eyeing me at a local park. I could sense he was looking for a handout, and I wanted to give him a treat; but there are signs in the park stating, “do not feed the wildlife.” So, I gave him a nod and we went our separate ways.

California ground squirrels live in burrows which they excavate themselves. Some burrows are occupied communally but each individual squirrel has its own entrance. Although they readily become tame in areas used by humans, and quickly learn to take food left or offered by picnickers, they spend most of their time within 25 m (82 ft.) of their burrow, and rarely go further than 50 m (160 ft.) from it.
In the colder parts of their range, California ground squirrels hibernate for several months, but in areas where winters have no snow, most squirrels are active year-round.
California ground squirrels are often regarded as a pest in gardens and parks, since they will eat ornamental plants and trees. They commonly feed on seeds, such as oats, but also eat insects such as crickets and grasshoppers as well as various fruits.
California ground squirrels are frequently preyed on by rattlesnakes. They are also preyed on by eagles, raccoons, foxes, badgers, and weasels.
The average lifespan for the California ground squirrel is 3 to 4 years in the wild, but they can live as long as 6 years. In captivity, the average lifespan for the ground squirrel is 10 years.

The city burned behind him, flames licking the sky, chaos unraveling in every direction. But he didn’t flinch. His grip was steady, his golden eyes locked on the target, a perfect storm of danger and precision.
"You have one chance," he growled, his voice low, menacing. "Tell me where the drive is."
The enemy smirked, defiant. The trigger finger tightened. A moment suspended in time.
And then—
Click.
Silence.
He blinked. Pulled the trigger again. Click.
His expression remained deadly serious, but the truth was unavoidable.
"...Okay, so I definitely forgot to reload," he muttered under his breath, reaching into his pocket. "Uh, can you give me a sec?"
The enemy just stared.
Somewhere in the flames, an explosion erupted. Dramatic. Intense.
"Yeah, no worries," his arch enemy finally said, crossing his arms. "Take your time, man."
CLICK - he reloads
"Right...I'm ready.. now .. where we.. oh yea... [STARING HARD]...Tell me where the drive is."
RING RING....RING RING...
"oh FFS... hold on again...please....
...Hello...mom...yes its me...but i'm a teeny weeny bit busy right now... yes I know I said we'd watch Bridgitte Jones together...but mommmm...."

----------------------------- JESUS ✝️ SAVES-------------------------------
SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST - ALONE!
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the SALVATION of everyone WHO BELIEVES: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel a RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD IS REVEALED, a righteousness that is by FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, just as it is written: "THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH." (Romans 1:16-17)
16 KNOW that a man is NOT justified by observing the law, but by FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH in CHRIST and NOT by observing the law, BECAUSE BY OBSERVING THE LAW NO ONE WILL BE JUSTIFIED. (Galatians 2:16)
1. Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2. BY THIS GOSPEL YOU ARE SAVED, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4. that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5. and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8. and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
9. For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11. Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed. (1 Corinthians 15:1-11)
7. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9. I am the gate; whoever enters through me WILL BE SAVED. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10. The thief comes only to STEAL and KILL and DESTROY; I have come that they may have LIFE, and have it to the FULL. (John 10:7-10)
1 Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness that comes from God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
5 Moses describes in this way the righteousness that is by the law: "The man who does these things will live by them." 6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 "or 'Who will descend into the deep?'" (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: 9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11 As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:1-13)
Jesus came to bring spiritual LIFE to the spiritually dead and set the captives FREE! FREE from RELIGION, ERROR and outright LIES, so WE might serve THE LIVING GOD! In SPIRIT and in TRUTH!
So you'll KNOW, and not think you're to bad for God to love. The Christian LIFE isn't about how good WE are, because NONE of us are! It's about how GOOD JESUS IS! Because JESUS LOVES US, so much he died in our place and took the punishment for all of our sins on himself. The wages of sin is DEATH, and Jesus took the death WE so richly deserved for us and died in our place. The good news is, there's no more punishment for sin left. WE, you and I were all born forgive as a result of the crucifixion of God himself on the cross that took away the sins of the whole world. All we have to do is believe it, and put your Faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. That my friends is REAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! YOU ARE LOVED. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

Loved him in it. Left arm is poseable, and the other one is normal with a little blood on it. Legs are glued in place on a hip piece, so it's removable. Blood on the Background was inspired by TheMooseFigs 's Negan photo. Go check it out if you haven't!
