Fresh out of the kiln
It hasn't been a totally pain free day but it has been the first day since surgery that I haven't taken pain meds and that's progress

I've been slacking on keeping this up front, but we're barely 1/5 of the way to what we need and nothing has come in for a week or two now.

Please help if you can, and boost far and wide, we'd love to keep our house and cars and ability to feed our kids 🙏🙏🙏

Seriously contemplating Octopath Traveler 0 even though I never finished the first one. Maybe all I needed was a character creator

How would you love to help support a trans, therian bird this holiday season? The annual business bills like website hosting and such are coming up and I could use some help!

The easiest way to do this is buying some premade items in my shop!

Included within is a brief explainer video we put together showing how ATproto migration works, from the perspective of someone migrating to Northsky, without too much technical jargon.

A huge thanks to the @atprotocol.dev community fund for helping support us with a grant to make this happen.

After spending 20 years being surgery averse, two gender affirming surgeries has definitely changed that

I love to be able to read about others' post-op experiences to confirm that things I notice are common experiences

I should not have ordered pottery tools until I was recovered enough to get back in the studio

Just got my partner and I signed up for the final pottery class offered by our studio. Last step before we can apply to be members!

Spent my first day home alone since surgery and was able to be mostly on the couch instead of in bed. Huge quality of life difference

Perks of a post-op appointment in New Haven is my partner suggesting pizza for lunch 🥰

Just over two weeks post-op, getting a lot more self-sufficient, grabber still needed to pick things up off the floor, still living more horizontal than vertical, already a few inches into a new knit sweater
November 30, 2025 at 6:19 PM
I think I managed to work out how to correct the error in the knitting pattern I'm working from. Otherwise having a good time with bubble stitches
November 29, 2025 at 9:10 PM
Used the proper needles this time and still did not get a matching gauge without blocking. Maybe this will be the first time I ever block a swatch
November 27, 2025 at 3:16 PM
Cannot believe that I knit a whole gauge swatch on a needle size smaller than I planned on

insurance came through, for really real, so Operation: Thanksgiving Pie is a GO

we still really need a bunch of help covering our bills while I recover, I'm the only income supporting my family of 4

please donate and boost 💜🙏
whether I get in for next week, or have to wait for January, I'm my family's only source of income, and my PTO will run out long before I'm recovered enough to return to work

thank fuck for FMLA, but we'll still need to pay bills for like 6 weeks without income

please help 🙏🙏🙏

Recovery has been a bit more intense than I expected, but it has also been a big mentality change in the best way

and we still need a bunch more help to cover our future bills, so please help, however much, or even just boost 🙏
