Where can I get a job like the one you now have at Firs Pres Berkeley? Who knew something like that existed? Lucky you and lucky them!

The photo of Fozzie concerned me....my dog had that issue when older and had Canine Cognitive Disorder....and I couldn't believe she couldn't remember where the door opening was. Now, since this is not his home.... maybe just normal confusion. Enjoy the warmer weather....I miss the sun

Charlene! I remember her well. She led our Consistory retreat at Flatbush. The Fozzie picture: Remember me, O God.

How fantastic! Congrats on the new gig. They are blessed to have you. I love the notion of the compassion of water. How often do humans soothe ourselves with water. How much of the human struggle is worked out by the sea, at a lakeside retreat, walking by streams and rivers, in a long soaky bath...

Just stopping in to say I’ve had a really tough week at work - I’m a Vet Tech - and reading your post today calmed my soul. We had a historic wave of cold weather in Seattle and while my furnace was dead for the worst of it🥶🥶🥶🥶, our city learned that 5 (at least) of our un-housed neighbors died of exposure.

I’m blessed beyond words to have a home, job, heat (now) and you and Fozzie to brighten my life❤️☮️❤️☮️

This picture speaks! The only caption I can think of-having been in similar circumstances is “No Way Out…”
