I’ve cast off on a new pair of socks; it feels like forever since I’ve done a sock. So that’s nice; what would be nicer would be Vivi not stealing my yarn, so I don’t have to hide it every night. Which I’m rubbish at, so often wake up to find that Smalls or Z have unwound it from my… Read more »

As a side effect of feeling a bit more human, I decided I was gonna buckle down and get my area tidied up. I’m pleased, and only the faintest whiffs of dizziness around the edge. Last thing that I need to do is run the vacuum around, but yeah. Party! I’ve also picked the next knitting-ma-bob — socks, big surprise…. Read more »

For the first time in two and a half years, I conceded to having a meal out. It was nice, though I can’t see myself doing it again for a couple more years as the whole Covid thing stands. I’m probably cursed to get it again, ’cause I touched the neighbour’s other kid today, ha ha. But otherwise, it’s the… Read more »

I’ve managed to do some decent price restock of dice, and maaaybe I’ve gone slight over the top? Maybe. *laughs* I need to count and see what I have, and figure out if there’s anything I need to get more of. I commented to Z that there’s a pack I order occasionally from Amazon that I need to get again,… Read more »

The first ever picture I saw of Raven and Vivi on the Stray Cat Rescue Facebook page had the two of them similarly in an office chair. So when I came down at noon and saw them thusly, it certainly plucked the heartstrings. 😀 And yes, noon. I had, apparently, turned my alarm off, and Z decided he was going… Read more »

Vivi was panting a little this morning, so I’ve been making sure to check on him over the day to make sure his breathing is okay. So of course, I just combed the house twice, got Z to join me… for Z to spot him standing in the window behind me with a ‘Oh hey, sup’ expression. I startled him… Read more »

So like, was off to a really good start this morning. Actually washed my hair, other bits of personal grooming, etc, felt on top of things. So of course, had a middday vertigo attack. Rude? The rudest. Z tended to me well, and instead of taking 4-8 hours to pass, we had it more or less licked in just over… Read more »

I had, some time back, bought some of those ergonomic crochet hooks. I realised today that using my old cheap and cheerfuls is a much more functional and edifying experience when doing hearts than the fancy ones did. I mean, ‘fancy’ — like pretty much all crochet hooks, they weren’t terribly expensive. I guess I just like the OG grip… Read more »

I had an order come in today, and then couldn’t find the product in question. So I’m making up one right now; hopefully that will make the missing pot of markers show up. Plus, I’ve had an itch to make some markers, so this scratches it nicely. Today on the whole… definitely awesome. The A/C is installed and working, and… Read more »

I’d gone upstairs because I had wanted to paint my nails, which multiple cats demanded attention. I managed to snap this picture before Vivi noticed the phone and got all up in his own face, because goober. But really, they’re goodum boys and girl, and I love them well. I also love that the a/c is installed! It’s not operational… Read more »
