Bent forward to give my kid a hug, and tilted my head as I did it. Had a MASSIVE head-spin but stayed the course because she needed the hug.

And now, an hour later, I’m still feeling nauseous. Bleagh. 🤢

Stupid vertigo.

I added a page to the website where you can send a little love note to folks in Minnesota.

I keep getting lovely emails about how people are inspired by the resistance, but I would like to actually put these together for folks on the ground to read when they need to.

I’ve been staying strong and hopeful from my safe position here in Australia, watching all the awfulness going on in the world, and now our friendly little spidey who was hanging out on the kitchen ceiling for weeks drowned overnight in a bowl that was soaking in the sink. That broke the damn. 😭

Ironic that I completely missed a typo in this. 🤣
Tell me your best forgotten/misspoken words or praises.

The other day I couldn’t remember what a linen cupboard was called, and I called it a ‘towel pantry’. 🤣

For my #sewing friends, check out how this kimono was made by watching The Green Wrapper unpick it.

It reveals how the rounded corners were made without cutting the any of the corner off!! (If you only want to see that part, go to 5:22.)

The weighted toy dog now has the bare patch and hole on his toe (chewed by the doggo here who thought it was a toy for him) covered with visible mending.

A bit of houndstooth to cover the wound left by a hound’s tooths. 🤣 (H/T to @hyperskip.bsky.social)

Today’s task that is giving me some respite from all the awful things going on in the world is to do a visible repair on my kid’s weighted toy dog.

The real dog here had a nom on the toy dog’s paw, so my kid and I chose some colours for a woven repair.

You can do this, people!!

This means a lot. Ordinary people protesting doesn't worry the government much, but when those people actively resist fascist operations, like these people who have been disrupting ICE's attempts to kidnap people, the system gets scared because it can't function without consent.

I like house sitting at many different people’s houses and having plenty of people to experiment on when I try a new thing. 🤣

So this (my first try at using Japanese sarashi fabric and also multiple colours) will be left for the owners.

Bought a thick hair elastic for my kid from MUJI and used it on her yesterday for the first time. It’s for thick AZN hair, and it’s perfect for her since she’s part AZN, and has thick AZN hair.

Honestly really jealous of her hair. She has _great_ hair.

I’ve known this for a while anyway, but another indication that my second child is also a nerd, is that when I asked if ‘Simlish’ is the language The Sims speak, she said ‘yes’, but then specified that it’s not an _actual_ language. 🤣

I love my nerdy babies. 🥰

At the risk of jinxing myself, this current dizzy spell may have started easing off today.
Vertigo (thanks, perimenopause) is fun!!

Try going about your day doing everything you normally do, but DO NOT tilt your head. You can look straight ahead, up and down, and directly side to side while your body is upright, but do not tilt in any direction. Also, don’t move your eyes too fast.
