Random work thought:

The small jolt of surprise when you're not sure you typed your password correctly for something and you're expecting the dreaded "NO!" pop-up...and you actually DID type it correctly!

(Yes, this just happened to me.)

Walking into our room tonight to get ready for bed and both #cats are loafed out waiting for us.

So, of course, as any cat owner would- I greet them:
“Hello potato!”
“Your Majesty”
🤣

What do you call your #pets other than their actual names? ❤️

Tonight is cool and rainy. Most of the snow will be gone by morning. (Cross your fingers it doesn’t get replaced by ice!)

So I am sitting by the heater spinning some blending board gigantic rolags.

What are you doing tonight? Anything fiber related?

My first time painting something that was not a direct tutorial! I am open to critique and tips for improvement but please be gentle. I’m waffling between loving it and hating it..,

Hey #FiberFriends and #YarnLovers and #HandSpinners!

Just finished a little #DropSpindle spin. It’s been plied-on-the-fly so this is 3ply. But uh…I’ve never had two turtles before? How do I join them? Do I not join them? Do I just…knit and join them together as I knit?? I was going to wet set them.

So I am a huge #CriticalRole fan. I have caught up and watched (almost) all of the one shots and all of that. I’m even going to Fjord and Jester’s wedding in October. ❤️

I am so sad and scared that tonight will be the last that they all sit at the table for a campaign. #ThursdayNight #BellsHells

#Gardening question for the masses:
I have about 60 of these raised bed bricks. They are about 10" (25.4cm) across and 5.5" (14cm) tall. I grow in USA #Zone5b. My first idea was double stacking these to get 10" deep #raisedbeds. Should I mix&match the beds, go all short, or stick with the deep bed?

I’m trying to use this ap more, but I miss my “love”, “care”, and “haha” reacts…

It’s the silly things, I guess. 🤷‍♀️

Leucistic American Crow.

This is probably my best #birdinflight photo, and it was just this past summer. It was, without a doubt, the photo that gave me the confidence to get the 150-450 big boy lens 🪶📸

1 minute (ish) of my typical evening. (No sound because all you would hear is a fan and my cats causing a rumpus before bed.)

Did you know that #showmeyourknits has a new theme every week??! I didn’t!

Well this week is #handknitsweater! So here is mine:
Pattern: @dearingenue.bsky.social’s #DeadOfNight pullover that I made for my college freshman.

It’s the very first sweater I’ve ever made and it fits wonderfully! ❤️

All of this!!
it feels frivolous and pointless to keep posting about niche art and crafting in the middle of the *gestures wildly* but you know what? I’m doing my thing irl and not online to try and help, and if I don’t keep creating things I will absolutely go insane, so why not share the crafting?
