Maybe shes tethered to a pontoon, lacks key safety gear for actual sailing, and has a leak or two—but that doesn’t mean I won’t enjoy my last two weeks with her!

Happy New Moon in Libra. Tomorrow the Sun enters Scorpio. We are entering the liminal season. Time to slow down.

Yes. The answer is yes. You can and should pair cheese cake with neck oil.

Sitting with HRH in my boat studio just about to start sketching some ideas for illustrating a tarot deck. Feeling a little like I’ve won at life.

Ship’s Cat. They are a rank of their own and follow neither skipper nor crew. But I could have told you that.

Visited my old friends at the museum, held a 5000 year old axe, met an actual orrery—going to miss London.

An increasingly tight budget means I can only get essential things. Like books on ancient magic and resistance.

If you ask me about a happy place I’ll think of a laundromat in Lower Sydenham.

After an initial set back yesterday, got her into the water today. I am exhausted and thrilled. I feel like I just won a game of cards.

Today my boat goes back into the water! This is the big test to see if my work this summer was any good. If she floats, I head to my mooring, if she sinks, I’ll cry and start over!

Today’s plan: bus to Bristol, pick up outboard engine from a GumTree seller, lug said engine back to the bus in Bristol, convince them I’m cute enough to put it under the bus for no extra fee, back to London, wheel it through Victoria, on a train to Kent and plead for a car to drive my home. Done.

How did Nick Hornby make 10 episodes of listening to a couple argue both hilarious and poignant? I’m relieved I’m divorced and a little sad I’m missing out.

The soft animal of my body loves paper. She also loves organized art supplies.

New ink for equinox.#DaggersDown is the mantra. Entering this new season with the idea that maybe I don’t always have to fight my way through it. Maybe I can slow down. Maybe I can put down the dagger. Maybe. There’s a lifetime of vigilance to ease up on.

Happy Wednesday! Happy Fall! Happy Libra Season! Happy cozy-af-get-me-a-beer-by-the-fire season!

Despite the overwhelming evidence of Trump's criminality, his fascist policies, his support of Israel's genocide, his links with sex trafficking and his views that domestic violence isn't a crime, what were the standout looks of the state visit, BBC News?

Big News. I think I have found my Sunday Pub.

Should I be nervous or flattered that I have a copycat on TikTok?
