Packing, Shuffling

      No Comments on Packing, Shuffling

Things are progressing towards completion for our heading out tomorrow. We’ve gotten just about the rest of the laundry caught up, mine and Littler’s case is packed, and Smalls and Z will complete their case shortly; theirs is being delayed by a shirt Smalls wanted to take that is in the dryer. I’ve still got a few bits and bobs… Read more »

In Progress

      No Comments on In Progress

Today has definitely been a good day to start our two weeks off. Z took the girls for a spot of shopping this morning, and picked up some sandwiches on the way back. I’ve had a long hot bath, and been working on my earring listings. I think I’ve almost got my head around how to photograph against black, and… Read more »

A Little for Me

      No Comments on A Little for Me

It seems that on my brain’s holiday to-do list is to make sure I have plenty of stitch markers. I even ordered a pretty tin to put them in, because yanno, I apparently had a need. The ones pictured here are small, as in, will do 4mm needles and under. Which if I’m honest, covers most of my knitting needs,… Read more »

Ka-ching

I semi-recently added the Sell on Esty app on my phone to make it easier to get my photographs into draft listings. I went a step further and set up some custom notifications, because hey, it’s super easy to do these days. What cracks me up is that the notification I set for people liking items confuses the hell out… Read more »

Not Really *laughs*

      No Comments on Not Really *laughs*

Today’s picture is the ultimate ‘crap, take a picture’ picture. I’m not particularly excited or concerned or anything — the picture, much like the pie, is a lie. *giggles* Having said that, I’m starting to feel the first stirrings of excitement for our forthcoming holiday. I’d ordered a new swimdress, and it’s cute. I even put a picture of me… Read more »

Quality Improv

I was talking to Z this morning, trying to brainstorm ideas for how to improve my lightbox. Namely, a way to support the cloth I’m using as backing at the top of the box. He suggested using a kitchen skewer supported on a tower of Duplo, which seemed like a reasonable idea (seeing how I don’t want to break the… Read more »

Blow Harder

      No Comments on Blow Harder

Today has been that borderline of warm and humid that had made the concept of moving even more insulting. It’s supposed to be a smidge warmer tomorrow and then cooler again after, so we’ll see. I could have turned the a/c on if I really wanted to, but I don’t know, trying to ‘tough’ it out or something. At least… Read more »

Black Screen of Infinite Waiting

      No Comments on Black Screen of Infinite Waiting

I decided that today was going to be the day I sucked it up and got the latest Windows feature update downloaded onto all of my computers. It went super-fast on Baby because hey, her OS drive is an SSD. My desktop is currently in black screen purgatory, so I’m keeping my main laptop waiting until that sorts itself out…. Read more »

Sunshine, Clawlipops…

      No Comments on Sunshine, Clawlipops…

Yeah okay, this is probably a piss poor effort at a subject line, but it’s late and I hadn’t realised how late it was. *chuckles* This was one of a series of pictures I took of  Batman this morning, ’cause he’s cute. And because Seanan McGuire likes cat pictures, and if I can give something back to my current favourite… Read more »

Taste of Time

      No Comments on Taste of Time

I was using my Sonic Spork to transfer some clock charms into a bag for background colour in a picture, and figured — why not take a picture of me eating time. So yanno, here you go — vaguely inspired. *chuckles* I’ve not done super much today, sticking to the plan of ‘moving is overrated’. It’s been a good one,… Read more »
