I recently learned that there is a Red Cross first aid app that provides guidance on how to render aid for a variety of needs (bleeding, cardiac arrest, anaphaletic shock, seizure, stroke, etc) based on your level of training. I just downloaded it myself.

Had a better day today, despite the poor sleep. Was able to get out and sew at my grandmothers house. 3/5 ribbons done on the front panel of the skirt. Almost there! 💜 (the stitches on the ribbons are not the straightest, but the thread matches so from a distance it’s hard to see).

Hakchuma update 🌱

With *vague gesture* everything else going on in the world, most of my mental wellbeing is currently coming from tending to these seeds. It’s my favorite thing to look forward to at the end of the day.

I don’t want to get toooo excited in case it doesn’t work out but…. I think one of my hakchuma seeds sprouted! 🌱

Fortunate timing- the latest Biskinik detailing relationships between the Choctaw and the Irish.

A Christmas letter commemorating the relationship between the Choctaw and Ireland. I have a Christmas ornament highlighting this as well (buried somewhere in the ornaments box)

Magnificent Frigatebird! One of the more recent additions to my life list.
