prototyping some christmas earrings

i am insane and decided to make some personalized christmas ornaments/suncatchers for my coworkers.

no one expects this, no one asked me for this. these took more time than they should have that i could have spent doing other things 😅

but i love being creative and i love gift giving!

I JOKED with him about heisting it so he GIFTED ONE TO ME for Christmas. He has my whole heart and loyalty now

(i was not gifted the stand but that’s ok!!! I’ll figure out how else to hang it!)

I am so grateful for where I am now in life. It’s not perfect but it’s infinitely better than last year

Dec 2024 I stress vomited and cried every day and coworkers hated me

Now I live near family in a job where I feel supported and was just given one of the most beautiful gifts I’ve ever received

if i had a nickel for every time i had a debilitating illness that doctors constantly tell me “that’s unusual for someone your age” i’d have two nickels

which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice

There’s nothing quite like “family coming to visit in an hour” to motivate you to frantically clean your depression pit of an apartment

do you ever feel self conscious that you might be *too* whimsical and quirky for the people around you? are they manic pixie dream girling me? am i manic pixie dream girling myself?

people need more whimsy in their lives dammit!

sometimes i think of my previous job and get PTSD flashbacks of the way I was treated and the things that were said to me and I get so anxious that my current job will become the same way

did you know that if you generate enough static shock that a WOOD FRAME will shock you enough to hurt? CUZ I JUST LEARNED THAT

Fandom isn’t your job. Take a month off. Take 3 years off. Post incomplete fics. Post incomplete art. Never post again. Switch fandoms. Stay loyal to one fandom only. Do whatever tf you want. You literally make all the rules of engagement in this arena.
