November 2021
I was in love with teaching. That was nothing new. I was in love with hiking the island. Also nothing new. This month the autumn colors were so beautiful; I couldn’t get over them. It was something we didn’t have in Sunny San Diego. Hiking showing me those colors and taking me by the beloved …
October 2021
October was relatively quiet in that it was mostly the day to day pattern that I had created of my life. Teaching my students with all my heart (with a very special moment where I got to talk at an international school about animal rescue), taking care of my own rescues (and JARC), checking out …
September Started with a Seizure – 2021
Yeah…I have nocturnal epilepsy. If you’ve been following long enough, you know that. Grand mal seizures, the big ones with the convulsing, foaming and bleeding at the mount, all the good stuff, well it would only happens when I’m asleep. Besides a feeling of deja vu, excessive tiredness with a fuzzy mind and possibly a …
August 2021 – Continuing my vacay in Busan and moving into a house I could make my own.
VACATION IN BUSAN continued… And so the week-long holiday in Busan continued. One thing I didn’t get to vacation from was the weight prejudice that followed me anywhere I went.

July 2021 – first holiday in Busan
I’d get comments later about being stuck in S Korea because of Covid. They would leave me a little confused, taken off-guard and even the tiniest bit offended. I was never “stuck”. The only place I would be “stuck” from was Japan next door. Other than that, I doubt I would have left the country …
June 2021 – Rockin the Routine Robin
Life kept on keeping on with the foster pups. Pebble, Sofia and Summer where the superstars of June. Shit, even I was even starting to look like a dalmatian when the bruising from my ITP started acting up. It happened from time to time and, even though I was keeping my platelet count monitored, it …
May 2021 – My routine life on a beautiful subtropical volcanic vacation island.
Pict of Pebble by Zen Yoon My month started with a delectable man in my bed during the blissful time of a new relationship. Beautifully sad, though, since I knew from day one that it wouldn’t last forever. Still, I was able to take it for what it was and appreciate it. There …

April 2021 – Rescue, Romance and Dancing in the Rain
Soju, an exceptionally easy pup to love, continued to be Mr. Popular around town and a turd to the other fosters until the bitter-sweet goodbye. Bitter because it broke my heart to lose such a love-bug but sweet to move him one more step toward his permanent home. He left pretty early in the month …
