I thought I would share: Kim of Oakwood Knits sent me a copy of her sock booklet that is now available! It was lots of fun tech editing these sock patterns. If you like a certain farm game, or love knitting colorwork socks, these are so much fun!

I think Ophelia thinks she can prevent me from going out of town if she blocks my access to my suitcase. Just so you know, this suitcase has been here for two whole days and she only now (when I'm about to pack it) decides to lay on it...

Day 2 of Unwind Getaway retreat in Blowing Rock, NC. (Well, day 3 for me, been here since Thurs).
Feeling cute today -- haven't been feeling so cute lately, but it's hard not to feel cute in a dress with kitty cats on it and in my favorite knitted cardigan!

Haven’t shared this in a while so here is all of the vetted and verified #altgov accounts. If they aren’t in the starter pack, assume they are not with us. The starter pack is updated every time a new alt finishes the vetting process. And yes there are two of us from SSA, me and @alt-ssa.altgov.info

Not sure I'm handling the craziness going on in the *everywhere outside* very well right now, but...
...my YouTube channel just hit 12K subscribers so I'm doing a little happy dance for that, and it seems like an unimportant thing amid everything, but it's bright spot, so I'll take it.

This video is for all US citizens who are currently overwhelmed by Trump's more than 200 executive orders.
THIS should be retweeted to the MAX.
I never saw a more helpful video.
(It's about two minutes long. It's worth a lot.)
