Nearly

      No Comments on Nearly

Today, I have done an exemplary job of doing almost nothing. I finished the level of Caesar III I was on last night, and have moved on to good old Londinium. I’ve gone so far as to bust out Excel to try and get the best mapping for my Palace blocks in situ… we’ll see how and if it works. And,… Read more »

Waking

Because of the fever blister thing, I fished out my phone this morning to get a picture of it. This was the result — pure, unimpressed with morning moi. The lip is coming along though, slowly. At least it’s not quite as tender as it was yesterday. I’ve mainly been zoning out gaming today. I’ve been nudging along a level… Read more »

16

As I had finished the super duper rainbow cake of wool, I decided to stop and take stock of how many squares I’d made so far. If I’ve counted correctly, I have 16. The two full cakes I did each made six, while the remnants of the orange after I made a cat hat for Seanan McGuire was four.  Smalls… Read more »

Britain, Innit

      No Comments on Britain, Innit

It’s raining. It was raining yesterday, and it’s supposed to rain tomorrow. What can you really expect — it’s spring in the UK, ha ha. It’s gonna get a bit colder over the next couple of days, so hopefully I won’t have to go out much into it. I wouldn’t’ve today, except my bestie put in an order for stitch… Read more »

To my amusement, every single picture I’ve tried to take of myself today makes it look like I’ve been slapped around by some sort of exhaustion bat. I mean, I always feel pretty crappy and exhausted, but like… mainly okay today? I’ve been sleeping really deeply the last couple of nights, and that has a positive knock-on affect.  My focus… Read more »

Perfect Date

      No Comments on Perfect Date

Today is April 25th, which according to Miss Congeniality and the World of Memes, is the ‘perfect date’. So of course, it’s chucking it down with rain. I don’t mind so much because I don’t have to go outside; the only wet I had to deal with was washing my hair. *pets hair* Mainly though, it was a quiet day. Batman… Read more »

45 Monies

I know that part of starting up a business is spending money, but I still feel bad about every cent I do spend. *chuckles* Today, I got hit by two pits — business cards, and beads. With the former, the 50% off on Vistaprint ended today, and I’ve had cards sitting in a basket for over a week waiting for… Read more »

Working Dinner

Today has been… a day. It started with waking up to find out I’d slept through Smalls being sick all night. She ended up having to stay home, and has to again tomorrow per school rules. She’s in good spirits though, and trying to eat, so she’ll probably be fine for Wednesday. ((and being sick meant more toast for her,… Read more »

Today, I constructed a lightbox prototype. It is exceptionally crappy and dubious, but I’m pleased with having it for experimenting. I even did a listing based on some photos I took… though admittedly, I did have to clean them up bit before using them. Still, it’s a step in the right direction, and I think that it will put is… Read more »

Boo You Lamp

      No Comments on Boo You Lamp

In some ways, our little jaunt to get lightbox objects was successful. Z picked out a nice sheet of posterboard, and one of the women who worked at Hobbycrack was able to locate the particular craft knife he wanted to buy (the retractable kind; they were hiding somewhere). We were less successful when we checked out the home store next… Read more »
