I’m not completely sure, but I think my blog has been eating my words. Or I’ve been forgetting that I’ve not written things on ‘paper’ that I’ve written in my head. My dreams reflected this last night, in that Katie Hopkins was a locum at my GP who gave me lots of illegal drugs for the ADHD I was trying… Read more »

My desk is in mess mode again, but at least like, stuff is getting done/made? I got one listing up, and am trying to talk myself around to getting another set photographed. It’s not like it’s hard to do, just like… fussy and focus in ways that my ADHD gets whiny about. *doinks brain* <3

Batman is… not really a lapcat. Sometimes he’ll want to cuddle for a few minutes before running off, and we had one of those rare spells earlier. So I took pictures, to which he made this gloriously offended face. He was actually enjoying himself, but yanno… face. *pats face in mind* There’s not much going on for the mo. I… Read more »

Yup, it’s the box and stitch markers again. But this time, the little bit of yellow that was still showing yesterday has been tended to. Now I just have to make sure to not get mucky fingers all over my paperwork, ha ha. I’m happy with it as a useful prop though. What else… what else. Work was aight. Post-work… Read more »

I’ve spent most of my day drilling out all the beads I drilled out to another bit of a wider borehole… but at least by the end of things, I got another set of stitch markers made. And I got these pretties listed earlier, so hooray for that? <3

I find myself doing more bead-drilling science this evening. Chatting with Nufrond on Thursday, the subject of hand drilling things came up, and she reminded me that heeey, sometimes you have to start with a smaller drill and then move up to a bigger one to keep a thing from shattering. So I’m seeing if I can get some decent… Read more »

This is a bit of a hi/bye, ’cause we have company. The photo in question comes from my latest Etsy listing, which I got photographed and processed before our visitors could arrive. I’ve got another set that I need to do, but tomorrow is soon enough. Anyhoos, hi. Bye. <3

It was very pleasing last night to see how many lovely things my group had made to donate. It certainly encourages me to keep on with my efforts. I’m a bit stymied by a raging headache that meds don’t want to touch, but. It’s not like a headache can stop me knitting. I think. Tomorrow we have excellent company. I… Read more »

As much as I love making stitch markers, I especially like it when I have ideas that use up materials. In this case, making use of my little hand drill have given me ideas of beads I can drill a larger bore for, and thereby expand my range of larger markers. The ones on the upper tray are for 10mm… Read more »

I had a parcel to run down to the Post Office earlier, so I crossed the street to take pictures of the flag when I noticed it had become ensnared with the neighbouring tree. It’s not just caught — the end that is attached to the tree is holey, and that is probably making it snarl worse. I’ve commented to… Read more »
