Ok, so I’ve been in the hospital for a few days and may be here a few more. One thing that has helped out has been seeing your pictures, so please send pictures of whatever your pets are gardens are up to!
@Michigander here are some wild ponies on the beach at the Outer Banks of North Carolina (US)
@Michigander Harriet, doing what she does best: sleeping...

@Michigander Well, you've motivated me to get off my butt and get out into the garden so I can do some work and have pictures to show you. I'll be back.

In the meantime, feel better!

@Michigander
I hope you're home and healthy soon.
@Michigander oh no hope you recover soon!
@Michigander here have some NeNes from Kauai
@darwinwoodka Those are very cool looking! I’ve never seen them before.

@Michigander

Yeah, supposedly descendants of off course Canadian Geese who ended up stranded here when blown astray by storms

@Michigander Flip was in a very cuddly mood today. Get well soon. ❤️

@Michigander

Rocco wishes you a speedy recovery! 💪

@Michigander Here is my Sally Holmes rose bush, doing what she does best. Wishing you get well soon.
@Michigander I've missed your photos. Hope you have a speedy and complete recovery.

@Michigander Andy demonstrating why I always look down before moving my chair.

Hope you recover quickly! Love seeing your pictures from my home state.

@Michigander From a long ago trip, Floors Castle gardens in Kelso, Scotland. This is one of our favorite gardens from our travels.

@Sckenai what a beautiful place!
@Michigander ohhh...get well soon. Here some Aquilegia vulgaris that I saw in my garden today.

@Michigander

Dang, I hope you're well soon. Meantime, here's an old picture of a Golden Mantled Ground Squirrel proving that it isn't made for the ground only. Not sure what it was looking for!

@Michigander Some sunflowers and other bloomers from Florida. Sending healing wishes your way!

@Michigander

I hope you're well again soon; I enjoy your photos from Michigan.

This from Dorset, England, in our garden today:

@Michigander Damn. Are you on the mend? I hope you get well quickly.
@Michigander I'm working on putting mulch down in my garden. I've put down the total of 10 bags so far. Here's the parts that are done and the parts I still need to do.
@mlanger that looks like a great garden with a view!
@Michigander Thanks! Still a mess, but I'm working on it. I'm trying to spend about 2 hours a day. I think I'm about 1/3 done.
@Michigander
Sorry to hear you’ve been ill! Sending best wishes & good juju for a quick & complete recovery (and speedy return to your camera)!
@Michigander Lucky purple lilac blossom for ya.
@Michigander Not my garden. But on a walk yesterday. Resilience.

@Michigander Oh fooey, very sorry to hear you're cooped up. Hope you are perking along and going to be liberated soon.

This was last night in my back yard, taken on my crappy phone. I snapped it when I realized the two Canada geese who've been lingering around my yard this month had a passel of goslings. Too cute!

@Michigander @penpencilbrush he has eaten, and now wants to snooze before keeping me awake all night.
@Michigander @penpencilbrush and in deepest Cabbagetown the rhododendron has awoken.
@Michigander how about a boop on a snoot? #CatsOfMastodon
@vi_zzyzx @Michigander
those humans sure do have a fetish for noses
@crouton @Michigander I mean a human finger is about the same size as a cat nose, so it’s pretty equivalent to how cats say hi to each other (nose touches)
@Michigander sorry you’re in the hospital, hoping you’ll be out soon! Photo as requested: not my garden, but some nice flowers spotted on my bike ride today + a very cool little art library right next to it.

@Michigander

Here is my hummingbird feeder where a rose-breasted grosbeak paused the time his partner ate the spiders on a structure close by.

Get well soon!

@Michigander sorry to read that you've been poorly. i hope that you're being looked after at hospital.
may the wind soon lift your ears & fill your lungs with clean, fresh air.
@kathimmel thanks, I look forward to getting back outdoors soon. I hear that it’s gotten hot out!
@Michigander that's no good! We've had a lovely week here on the farm.

@Michigander Sorry to hear that! Here's a high five from Luna!
@bodhipaksa Which mime school did Luna go to?
@Michigander Sappho wishes you a quick and easy recovery!
@Michigander I am sorry to hear that you are unwell and very much wishing you a swift recovery.
@Michigander here's Gertie McGrew and her teefies. She sends healing kisses.
#GertieFanClub #dachshund
@Michigander a little something while you #BloomScroll
@Michigander I hope you get to feeling better soon!
@Michigander our new rescue Maddy is being a perfect sweetie! She's currently all tuckered from a visit to the vet
@Michigander
Here are some flowers from my yard. Some are opportunistic escapees from pots we’ve bought in previous years, and some that were here when we bought the place 9 years ago.
Hope your hospital stay is short and uneventful.
@Michigander The hospital blows - I hope you get better enough to get sprung soon. In the meantime, here's my Nibbler holding me hostage.
