GenX. Progressive. Cross-stitcher. Mom. Wife. Mimi. Cat-lover. Swifty. She/her/hers. I love Jesus but I cuss a little. Resisting in cockroach mode.
New finish. Don’t sit at tables Jesus would have flipped. (Seriously. Stop it.)

Today my state attorney general posted a photo of a teacher’s room that had a couple of rainbow/pride signs that “You are welcome here” and “Safe Space”, and said “Is this what Hoosier taxpayers expect in their middle school math class?” 1/#

Adagio rooibos Earl Gray. I wish I could say I acquired the mug myself, but my daughter brought it back for me. Someday… #rooibos #earlgray #tea #ireland

It’s Saturday and I really should be working on my Cliffside Stitches stitchalong. But I’m just compelled to add to this piece I started last week. #resist

Afternoon pick me up. #Harneyandsons #EarlGrey #tea in my pretty work mug with #Samoas #GirlScoutcookies

Ok, I just recently started playing around with hot tea. And I am in love with Earl Grey. Seriously I could marry it. I’m anxious to try H&S different varieties.

What’s your favorite tea?

Bedtime tea, Tazo organic calm chamomile, in the Wisconsin Been There mug, with the last of the Girl Scout Trefoils. I can feel when this hits like I feel a glass of wine (and this won’t give me acid reflux two hours after I fall asleep) #tea #chamomile #girlscoutcookies

I listen to WHAT in the a.m.?

#spotify #daylist is a little unhinged sometimes. What can I say, my music tastes are…eclectic

You thought I was kidding about the #vintagesampler ?

Except I decided to design my own. And because I am the way I am, I’m winging it. Band and alphabet sampler, one row at a time. Half of the top band done yesterday #crossstitch #embroidery #artsky

Fresh off the hoop, sort of an early Valentine, Quaker sampler to help chase the winter blues away. No lie, I picked this for the colors, only swapping out one (that dark red), Love Note by Night Stalkers calling. Rest by Weeks Dye Works. Pattern by Needle Case Goodies. #crossstitch #artsky

I started this about 6 years ago. I add to it every time I get t̶r̶i̶g̶g̶e̶r̶e̶d̶ inspired. Last time I added to it was May or June of last year. I kind of hoped I was done with it.

When you accidentally hit the screen lock key instead of backspace for the 5,234th time since, and given the state of the world, you just can’t, so you furiously pry the key off forever and call it good

Windows key + L works just fine for me

My Roomba’s name is Carson. Carson is kind of a workaholic. This evening I realized he was sitting on his dock backwards and not charging, so I turned him around. This woke him up, and he tried to help me position himself on his dock, as he does. But he was not quite getting it….

Why I’m in my cockroach era. This is slow motion compared to 2001. Which means it may not get resolved in my lifetime (hell, I don’t think we’ve put 9/11 behind us). Surviving like a cockroach, hiding in the rubble, but maybe coming out occasionally to freak out the enemy.

Def not cross stitch. Bad AI.
