Cared for my wife from 2017-23. Alzheimer's is terminal, progressive, and devastating for all concerned. J now lives in 24/7 care. 😭

While dying, dad told us his dad & gran were Aboriginal, calling his grandparents a combo - an illegal mixed couple. Who knew? Not me. True? No idea. Yet. I toot as a white man, & benefit from the privilege that brings in Australia. I live on Darug land.

I follow people, but get a little confused when people follow me.🤷‍♂️

Hurrah! Xmas swamp wallaby! 😁

They're regular, but rarely seen, visitors to my backyard. I know they visit, because I can see the garden's been chomped & fertilised...

What a great place to live.




A swamp wallaby stands on pavers, near some garden, treated pine & pots. Some lawn is also visible. This one is quite dark, almost chocolatey brown—there's usually a bit more gold in their colouring.
