Roverton Home for Old Shihs

Well its aphid sex season so guard all your faceholes when you’re just casually outside.

Northern flickers and black capped chickadees are back on the block! And saw a Merlin behind our house today. It’s fall, y’all! #birds

A rat terrier with a white body and brown head sits up like a person on the corner of a couch

A shih tzu with a white face and grey ears sits next to a rat terrier with a white body and brown head staring up from the bottom of a couch covered with a purple quilt

This dog is an absolute menace. She is so cute but her breath smells like poop. Sometimes she teams up with her sister to stare me down for food. #Daisy #seniordog #ratterrier #shihtzu #bondedpair #abby

We have a mantis who hunts at our wasp trap. Clever girl! #prayingmantis #insects #garden

Just watched our hummingbird (his name is Evinrude, he lives here now) chase off a robin and a bunch of sparrows. Thinking of changing the water in the feeder but that might be a nighttime activity… #hummingbird #calliopehummingbird

So if I want to dye my armpit hair do I have to sit there for 30 minutes with my arms up? I feel like maybe I need to train for a month or something before I can take on the challenge. #hairdye

Pink yarrow grows alongside budding orange paintbrush flowers

Don’t mind me, I’ll just be staring at my paintbrushes and yarrow

A hummingbird hovers above pink flowers in front of a brown trellis

Outside checking out flowers for a few minutes and look who came to visit us again #hummingbird

We planted these yesterday and as we walked away today after working on drainage a hummingbird was feeding on it already! (It’s in the photo but not very visible). Also this mantis crawled up my leg and 10/10 will take that over a tick any day.

Every spring when we hear them my husband says “the frogs be fuckin’” and i just nod and we listen to the symphony

We are saying goodbye to our blind bundle of farts today. Barry had lots of health issues, and in the end his little body just couldn’t handle it anymore. He’s got 10 brothers and sisters waiting to welcome him.

Do YOU get permission from your local dump to go birding on their property after hours? Cause we do. #birding

Let me be clear. I will never purchase something that required me to interact with its ad on Hulu.

A white shih tzu sleeps in a sunbeam

My name is Tater Tot and my mom scoots my bed around the room so I’m always napping in sunlight I’ll let you give me treats later

Saw a great horned owl mama and TWO babies today. So fluffy.

Ambrosious!

Sweater? I hardly know ‘er. #knitsky #firstsweater

Hyacinth twins!

After offering it for over six months, my niece finally text the other day asking if it was still ok to use our @dropout.tv login. I was so excited but trying to be chill. Probably similar to how people feel when they finally catch a fish for the first time

Tyrannosaurus-Paid teased this with his outfit at Coachella

Do you wash the rice first or no?

Really appreciated reading this. Thoughtful and nonjudgmental.

Nothing will silence the birds on a walk faster than a couple of red tailed hawks flirting overhead #birding #spring

Dark purple and pink hyacinths sit next to smaller grape hyacinths

Love our front yard in spring

It took one week but it is finished and I have a pair of socks. They are worth $1000 to me.

Holy cow i made a sock and it fits my foot.

Purple, orange, and pink yarn has been knit into the top half of a sock, on circular knitting needles

Knitting my first sock and its going well enough i might have two socks by the end of this. #knitting #socks #learningtoknit

Dark purple hyacinths starting to bloom among their green foliage in a garden bed of dead leaves

Purple crocus with bright orange centers bloom among green foliage and dead leaves

Signs of spring showing up in my front yard. I love planting bulbs in fall because I forget what I planted by the time they bloom (right after I’ve planted them) and it’s always a fun surprise. #hyacinths #crocus #springblooms

People give a wider berth if the mask is white as opposed to black- i think because it appears more “medical” fun masking observation

The PSA is a trick and its a game changer, right? April fools.
