Sometimes I look at my cats and think, "man, I wish someone ten times MY size would spend a half hour a day giving ME a full body rubdown."

Getting off the Internet for the morning to read this book about the apocalypse to take my mind off the apocalypse we're actually living through.

Finished the first color on a new embroidery project, vacuumed and dusted really well, cleaned off the dining room table and made a big pot of chili for dinner.

Just finished What Feasts At Night by T. Kingfisher, and these books are the perfect bite-size spooky reads. Cannot wait for the next one.

New reading glasses. Finally shelled out for the expensive ones we sell at work, but they're much nicer and cuter than the cheap ones I've been using.

Ghostie finished. I think these 6-inch projects are the perfect size to knock one out every week or two by working on them on my days off or in the evening. It's nice to FINISH things.

Day off embroidery progress. I know that I am doing basically toddler level embroidery, but it's nice to make something with my hands. There's something a little primal about learning an ancient handcraft like this. And oops I'm about to be serious about it.
