Started to properly get into research for the panel and turns out that having an author as a main source of truth is useful when you look for a nice piece of family lore because he wrote about it. Anyway. Gonna be a good week of going through stuff.

Been enjoying the sun to go touch some grass and walk the anxiety off. Getting there. More walking happening in the near future. Writing a bit. Prepping for some open calls and panels.

I'm going to transform stress into clothes. Will fight the viscose skirt this weekend, but also explore some new patterns. Mood Fabrics has a great collection of coat patterns and I may dive into one...

First consultation today. Didn't learn anything outside of there is no alternative offered other than somehow keep the role considered redundant, or being made redundant on August 1st. Made a walk the plank joke which went as poorly as expected but I found it funny. So there.

Yesterday I went to my local Pride, a 4 y.o birthday, an engagement party & closed the day with Kíla's gig. And through it all, for small moments here and there, lost in the moments, I forgot about the latest wave of tech redundancy. Nice while it lasted. And now, Sunday is for updating my resume!

It's time, ducks and duckos! We have our schedule provisionally drawn up. I did intend to post images but the text transcription would be a nightmare 😅
So instead, behold a thread of the scheduled panels and workshops:

I've been into sauces lately. Tired of buying them or just doing a quick 2 minutes version, so started to take the time and so far I'm impressed. Really understanding the hype behind sauces. Open to recipes so I can continue this journey in elevating my daily dinner.
