It is white people’s responsibility to be less fragile; people of color don’t need to twist themselves into knots trying to navigate us as painlessly as possible. -Robin Diangelo —————————————————————

Guard dog on duty ✋🏼 ————————————————————————— Susie is my perfect little girl. But she can have her ups and downs. One thing I thought I loved about her was that she was the perfect little guard dog. When I got her I was a single girl living on my own, and I wanted a pup who would not only be my best friend, but also a loyal guardian. Now that I live with roommates, it’s been quite the adjustment to get her used to sharing her living space with others. She’s made some best friends in the house, but we are still working with her every day to get her comfortable and less stressed every time someone comes in the house. It’s been such an adjustment but I’m proud of how far we’ve come! ————————————————————————— I’m curious tho- what’s your dog like? Is your pup the type to run up and greet strangers with love and ask for pets? Or is your pup more reserved? If it isn’t obvious enough, Susie is definitely reserved towards strangers. She really only lets her friends pet her, and otherwise does the cat “body roll” away when anyone else tries to pet her. It’s both hilarious and sad 😂

Until justice is blind to color, until education is unaware of race, until opportunity is unconcerned with the color of men’s skins, emancipation will be a proclamation but not a fact. -Lyndon B Johnson ———————————————————————— It’s hard to come back to IG with everything that’s been going on. I’m angry and I’m upset, and our world needs to change. I may not be good with words or with politics, but what I do know is that actions speak louder than words and we all have the opportunity to stand together. I’m so proud of my community that has been fighting and protesting for EQUALITY and for BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS that are so unjustly intertwined in our culture. So today, and EVERY DAY, I will stand with you and support you. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 ———————————————————————— Today/tomorrow I’ll be posting links to community and educational resources. And I know so many of you have been asking when I will be announcing the winner of the giveaway!! I’m SO sorry for the delay, but it just didn’t seem right to glorify that when there are much more pressing events going on right now. I’m hoping to post the winner this evening, so stay tuned 🤗

I hear you. I see you. I stand with you #blackouttuesday

Slow down and enjoy the simple pleasures in life 🌿🐾 ——————————————————————

It’s almost Friday and all I can think about is getting to the weekend so I can get back to exploring. Anyone else?! ————————————————————— Update on camera lens: condensation finally appears to be out. But when I tried to take a photo, it still appears incredibly blurry. I’m thinking...RIP buddy 😭😭😭 this is the place that the poor lens ended its life. If anyone has a 50mm 1.4 they are trying to get rid of, let me know! Lol

I swear mahm if you gib dis to Prince and not me I’m gonna be so sad ——————————————————————— 🦴by @franklypet (available are franklypet.com or at some local pet retailers!)

Nature is beautiful ☘️🍀☘️ ———————————————————————— What’s your favorite type of nature scene? I was ASTONISHED by the lush green colors that we were surrounded by this weekend. I’ve gotta get out to the Olympic Peninsula more often 🌲

Wandering through a field of clovers ☘️ ————————————————————

Into the forest I go To lose my mind and find my soul 🐾 ———————————————————————— I’ve been having the hardest time figuring out what to post. I took 700 PHOTOS OVER THE WEEKEND which is definitely a record 😂 but I took so many that it’s stressing me out and I have no idea where to start. So here we go 🤷🏼‍♀️ time to put all 40+ photos already in draft on hold because I’m too excited not to share the weekend with you guys. ———————————————————————— This photo may not look like much, but it’s the entrance to the woods where I spent HOURS playing when I was a kid. We had so many family reunions out here at our family’s property. I cannot begin to tell you how nostalgic it is to see this photo and remember all those memories. AND to be able to share more with you guys! - also to update you on the lens, still condensation inside. I’m slowly losing hope but we’ll see how it goes ☹️

My reaction to when my camera lens falls out of my pocket and straight into the river 😱😭 ———————————————————————— Sorry for being MIA this weekend! Me and a couple friends drove out to the Olympic Peninsula where my family has over 100 acres of owned property. We camped out there and had lots of adventures that I can’t wait to show you! Unfortunately the one that’s sticking with me right now is me dropping my lens because I’m a little shook 😭😭😭 it’s currently chilling in a jar of rice, so hopefully we can nurse it back to life. Fingers crossed ☹️ ———————————————————————— Bandana/tag combo by the amazing @northernhounds 🐾 - “SusieQ” can save you some $$

YOOOOO IT’S FRIDAY!!!! Who else is ready to have the ultimate chill long weekend?! 🙋🏼‍♀️ I’m stoked too because I just got a new lens to try out- the 10-18mm 4.5-5.6. I’ve gone from the kit lens to a more portrait style- 50mm 1.4, and now experimenting more with wide angle/landscape. I cannot wait to see how these photos look! What do you shoot with?? ———————————————————————— You can’t see the full photo here, but holy moly we had the amazing opportunity to try out one of the raised dog bowls by @petjunkieco. The design is GORGEOUS, and it’s super heavy white speckled marble. The bowl goes up to Susie’s shoulder when she’s laying down, so literally no bending is necessary. And it looks so classy on my porch 💅🏼 ———————————————————————— Also- don’t forget to check out the camera giveaway we’ve got going on until the end of the month!

A yawn is a silent scream for coffee amirite? ———————————————————————— Sticker - @kpbdesignss - “SusieQ”
