My favorite quote from Sarah J Maas. I can’t remember which book it’s from in the ACOTAR series but it’s my favorite. “Don’t let the hard days win.”

I took a kitten from my neighbors yard. They don’t take care of all the strays they feed and there are always kittens hanging around. This is Pepper and I love him. He went to the vet yesterday. He has a cold but that’s it.

I took a kitten from the litter a stray had across the street. It’s almost all black except for a little tuft of white on its chest. I think it has an upper respiratory infection (I’ve dealt with them before). I’m going to make an appointment with the vet. I think it’s still too small to be fixed.

My TBR just got a little longer. I need an intervention. Also, if you’re in the vicinity of Brooksville, FL there’s a great little book shop there called Citrus and Sage. They even had a coffee shop inside.

When I was 16 I met a man from Ethiopia. We worked at McDonald’s together. He looked young and said he was 20. We started dating. My parents found out and had him arrested. When he was arrested, they showed me his ID that said he was 32. I was just thinking about it (27years later).

I had no idea what to make for dinner so I shopped my pantry. Black beans, lentils, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, frozen spinach, and rice. I seasoned it with salt, garlic, Italian and onion.

It’s been a long time since I sank into a book. Not just read it but sank in. Like a warm bath. I needed it. This book arrived yesterday and I’m almost at the halfway point. It’s fantastic. My TBR pile keeps getting bigger.

A tale in two pictures: internal temp vs external. I hate Florida with inadequate air conditioning.

One of the best books I’ve ever read arrived today. I read it exactly one time 20ish years ago and it has just stayed with me. I absolutely adore Chuck Palahniuk because of this book. Read it. Then read Rant. Maybe read Fight Club. But this one is the star of the show.

I’m trying to think about something for one of my classes. While I work through it in my head I made a lanyard.

My 10 yo son got his ear pierced today. He wanted both but decided after the first that it would be just the one. He’s been asking for weeks.

I bought the cosmic seed tarot deck a couple weeks ago. Today I finally saw the death card and I really want it as a tattoo.

Took the agate beads off a broken watch band and made earrings with some findings I got ages ago. I was really depressed today and creating helped get me out of it. Maybe I just needed a win. I considered crocheting but that takes too long for the serotonin boost of finishing a project.

I have a special mug. It’s a handmade ceramic one I bought at a renaissance festival.

I bought a fire blanket because a house in my neighborhood burned down and I would like to be prepared. I showed my mother and she asked why I need it. lol.

Took my boys on a hike and we saw a little armadillo.

My 10 year old is learning how to paint. This is his sunset.

A witch post:

My obsidian scrying mirror arrived today. At first I thought it was chipped but they were just smudges. I used a microfiber cloth and it’s perfect. I’m so happy. I’ll cleanse it later and maybe have a session later today.

I’m listening to marconi Union. Why? Because this fundamentals of software development class almost gave me a panic attack. Classes started Monday and I can already tell this course will be difficult. I’m no good at reading and understanding the fundamentals. I need to actually do it.

My new tarot deck came in the mail and I love it so much!
