A piebald dachshund stretched out sound asleep on the Big Bed. His front legs and head are buried under a Purdue fleece blanket. The rest of him is out for thermostat control.
When you need a blanket because you are a dachshund but you live in Phoenix where the temperature hit 90F.
The Strait of Hormuz is open for transit
We saw the pretty greyhound girls on the way to work this morning. One blue and the other a frosty faced black.
A piebald dachshund peeking out of his brown and orange tent. He wonders if you might have any spare treats.
Peek a boo!
βI really wanted something that would create a sea change for families and children in New Mexico,β Lujan Grisham said before officially making New Mexico the first state in the nation to offer free, universal child care.
Yesterday, the NM DOJ began its investigation at Zorro Ranch. Why did the FBI tell NM to drop its case in 2019? Who asked them to do so and why?Β
Thatβs why this new investigation is so important. Survivors have waited too long for justice, and NM is leading the way.
Iβve found ringing handbells is also good for you and stress relief. Youβre constantly switching from right brain to left and back. Plus ringing hard on forte is delightfully similar to smashing something.
Oh, I snickered!
Oddly enough, no. And I didnβt see any of the resident coyotes, either. π€
Iβve found ducks in the most random of places. Kids take them everywhere to play, but, low value toys arenβt often looked for. Friends have brought me ducks their kids found on playgrounds, I got one when several teams moved to a new building at work. My boss grabbed it for me. πͺΏ
A blue rubber ducky on a white table. Printed on the duckβs chest is the contact info for Chandlerβs code enforcement office.
I found a duck on Kiernanβs walk this morning! No idea why Chandler Code Enforcement has ducks or why one was sitting atop an electrical transformer over by me but itβs mine now.
He wanted a nap. I learned on Friday heβs beendoing the same to his caretaker on work days. CT works nights. K cries while he cooks breakfast. The second CT is done eating, Kiernan runs to the blankets on the couch and begs again, ready for their morning nap. #SleepyLittleJerk
Today in conversations with my dachshund: Kiernan, why are you being such a fussy little jerk today? Why??!!!
Ooh!
I thought part of the goal of the cookie sales were to learn entrepreneurial skills. This shows excellent business sense and ability to spot an underserved market.
Albuquerqueβs own CSI Aviation organized yet another torture flight.
The most disappointing thing about making more Firefly is now how will I upset nerds by asking where I can buy the second season of it
I am SO PROUD to introduce the Albuquerque Indian School Act, which will transfer almost 10 acres of federal land to the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center and NMβs 19 Pueblos.
This will support the IPCCβs work supporting indigenous communities and celebrate Pueblo culture, sovereignty, and resilience!
You tell βem! π
"Arrests are not a solution to homelessness" says @mayorkeller.bsky.social
Yet between 2022 to 2025, arrests of Albuquerque's homeless population have tripled with 75% of those booking made by the Albuquerque Police Department

Thankfully no mambas here in the Southwest but we do have awesome roadrunners that kill rattlesnakes. By beating the snakesβ heads against the ground to crush them.
Early voting for the Salt River Project board election begins on March 11. April 7 is election day. And you may have seen signs around the Valley for a slate of candidates supported by Turning Point USA.
1. Farmer and school bus driver
2. Tenant farmer, the family never owned the land they worked
He really seems to. Heβs not even reacting to the pain from the extraction so the bad tooth must have hurt so much worse.
The season of Wind is nigh. Appreciate this while it lasts.
Cannot see Karls. Where is magical hiding place???
Yes! I canβt imagine dealing with that in my mouth.
I had a terrible time getting him to settle the last 2-3 weeks. He was terribly fussy and much whinier than usual. Poor pup must have been in considerable pain. Now heβs back to his usual self.
Kiernan is doing so much better since getting that infected tooth out. Neither I nor the vet knew the pocket was there until they put him under. It went all the way up into his sinuses, packed with grass and oozy stuff.
