Young puppy, Mochi, my step-daughter’s little French Bulldog getting curious about the sheep next door. What is not shown is the other sheep and cow looking on. How wet it was that afternoon. How I had to push my way through a hedge to get to Mochi, and go back through it once I had Mochi. How Mochi was in no hurry to be picked up, and by the time that I did get to him, he was covered in mud…and then ran straight back down to the animals once I had cleaned him off.
Oh the mischievousness of youth…whatever the breed.
This jigsaw puzzle was very satisfying to do, and the collage of images looks better in the completed puzzle than the image on the box. Some fun, whimsical pieces in there as well. 🧩
Oohh, I wish that I had a zoom lens just now. A white egret stood on our grey roof against the background of grey clouds. The weather is overcast. There is no extraneous sun shining through. The egret was in stark relief against the grey that surrounded it.
I am receiving more texts, spam texts, of late from numbers claiming to be USPS and telling me about packages addressed to me and awaiting clearance from customs. Clicking on a supplied link will apparently resolve the issue.
I don’t know what has increased the appearance of these texts? 🤔
☕ The aroma of freshly brewed coffee drifts across the house this morning.

Playing around again with Cinemin by Tinrocket, a couple of evenings ago.
I’m in the middle of doing this jigsaw puzzle showing a collage of various traditional British pub exteriors and signage. A puzzle that my mother gave to me. I love doing puzzles. The process relaxes me. Doing this one I’m finding is also making me homesick. There is nothing like a British pub and I am no longer around them. I miss them. 🧩
Sunset this evening.
I’m testing a Shortcut where I’m entering the text for my post directly into the Shortcut. Here goes…
This morning’s rainbow 🌈
I’ve been playing around with Tinrocket’s relatively new app Cinemin. While admiring what they can do, I do not normally choose to use apps that give photographs a artistic look, this one I am enjoying though. The images that Cinemin produces is,
Inspired by traditional animation art and films
Here are a couple of my first dabbles with the app, conjoined by Tinrocket’s collage app, Photo Tape.
Well it took a couple of attempts, but with the new Tapestry TestFlight build, Micro.blog is now on my Tapestry feed.
This evening’s sunset view from home.
Between the rainbow this morning and this sunset, the day has felt oddly discombobulated. Slowly productive, but sort of disjointed along the way.
This morning’s rainbow, accompanied by the moon 🌈
🥵 The last couple of days have been very humid. This morning outside it is like walking through a thick bath.

Monday 22nd July, 2024 Dear Friends,
I don’t think that I am in the business of looking after dogs anymore, at least not puppies. Please don’t get me wrong, I love dogs. However, my step-daughter who has a young French Bulldog has gone away with her family for a week, and my wife and I are looking after the puppy. He is sweet, but a lot of work and messy. Give him a few more years when he is happy with just a walk, doesn’t eat or drink sending everything everywhere, and doesn’t bring the outside in.
