I have been dealing with a wicked headache most of the day. I gave in and took pain meds, which bought some reprieve… but that’s apparently wearing off now. Ouch. I might have to redose myself so that I have a decent night’s sleep once I get there, but we’ll see. I’m hoping that I can manage to go without,… Read more »

So, folx who know me know that I don’t really do phones. They’re really hard for me to use with my ADHD getting worse with each passing year. So I surprised the crap out of myself when my first response to reading a bit of news was to call my mother-in-law. *laughs* It was just a bit of gossip about… Read more »

I was walking to the kitchen earlier today, when I clocked this on Smalls’ desk in passing. I decided it was a nice mash-up of cute and quietly sinister. I mean, those horns, those eyes… >__> The day has been spent researching semi-precious stones for a future bracelet project. I think I have most of what I need researched and… Read more »

Today has been an edifying day. I listed the solar system bracelet and gave friends first dibs, and it sold right away. It looks like I’ve got to try and get two more made at the very least, so we’ll see how that goes. A degree of that is going to be getting the right lucky mix from the particular… Read more »

Today is a good day, sort of. I did end up having to do a repair install of the OS on the laptop — but I found the backdoor way to get that to happen, since my front door methods weren’t working. I’m back up and got most of the important things reinstalled, so yanno, happy face warranted. I’m also… Read more »

Today is my day of levelling up. I’m older than I’ve ever been, and now I’m even older. I’m fine with this! I’ve crafted, I’ve had a nice lunch out with Z (riiiiiiiibs), and I’ve topped off the day with a ridiculous portion of cheesecake. The only thing I can complain about, really, is that my laptop is still borked…. Read more »

My laptop is still not recovered from the latest round of Windows updates… sigh? Sigh. I finally hit the point where I’ve completely turned it off and abandoned it for x amount of time (like, an hour maybe). I figure that if I quit fretting and looking at it, then it might have a better chance to get its shit… Read more »

Maybe it’s just me, but this head looks more leonine than ursine. Which is to say, I think it looks a bit more like a bear than a lion. Maybe it will come around more once I get it attached to the body — once I finish making the body. For the second, I am being really annoyed with Windows… Read more »

Lots of my pretties came in today, so I’m poking at ideas. I had prepped some Nymo, but was having a hard time making multi-stranding cooperate. In part, of course, ’cause I was trying to do two strands for each of the strands, which meant four equally cranky bits of monocord fighting for dominance. So I’m playing with ideas on… Read more »

Monday is my day off. I enjoy having the house to myself for a few hours, and decompress from life. So of course, I was bemused that I had an itch to log into work and get stuck in. This is an especial no-no right now, because I tend to run a high risk of pushing myself into a severe… Read more »
