I'm digging this dress.

Ok. Thanks for peeping the thread.

Going to pack up the rest that didn't fit and reoffer on my local free list.

This jacket is too big and giving me Macklemore vibes, but ...

This actually fits very poorly on me. From the side I look pregnant. Some very thin tall girl will like it though!

Fancy Catering Staff? Or We All Have To Wear Black for the Choir Recital?

This fits. I didn't have Navy fam though. Just Army and Marines. Am I poser, if I wear this?!?!

There is an old Navy Base in my town tho. 😆

Welp, almost everything is a little too big. But this sweater is cozy. I think maybe 2 other things fit.

This time of year I would do Family Game Programs for Int'l Games Month. Not yet there in my new role.

So solo lunch gaming with Silver and Gold it is. I posted on Teams, but no one came. 😞. I will keep trying. 🙂

Whatever it takes to keep playing games with my teen ... even if that means waiting quietly while she takes several min. to worship at the altar of 6-7. 😑

If you like learning about symbiotic relationships in the animal kingdom, this is a great book by one of my favorite children's book illustrators.

My favorite factoid used to be the sunfish and seagulls, but now I just learned about this anemone & hermit crabs!

"You didn't learn it beforehand?!?" 😖

Not an issue with Jungo! We played two rounds and she won.

Scout, but even easier is an apt description.

Thought I'd do chores on the first day of my 3 day weekend, but it may be one of the last of the nap in a hammock sunny days!

My Jackalope won 3rd place for Spooky Individual and our branch won 2nd place for Large Group submission.

This is what happens when your group goes so hard, the workplace had to rewrite the contest rules to allow others to win.

Stag's Lunchette. In the early 2010s, when Oakland first started to try out the phrase Uptown for a neighborhood right above Chinatown. It was the best pastrami reuben I have ever had. That spot is now Aburaya Japanese Fried Chicken.

Day of the Dead in the Fruitvale. My first time in years not working the event. So nice to just be, and see everyone out.

Last one. Idk about this jacket. I feel like a bell hop. The sparkly dress underneath has shoulder pads. 🧐 This bag of Buy Nothing clothes was a journey. Like who are my neighbors?!?! Also, she left a dollar in change in the pocket!

What's the masculine equivalent of "I don't like this dress, oh but wait ... it twirls!?!?"

That's a lovely feeling I hope everyone can feel at some point in life. If it has pockets even better, sadly this one does not.

Librarian fit AND Silk PJs?!?

What is this lady's life?!?
November 2, 2025 at 7:19 AM
Who is this lady?!?! Idk how she originally styled this shirt. I actually think it's a maternity shirt, but I think I can rock it. 😁
November 2, 2025 at 6:44 AM
I'm a big reuse person. A petite lady offered her clothes on my local Buy Nothing group ... I think she is actually the Vampire Lestat or a pirate.

One last Jackalope photo.

Everyone at work didn't know how I'd make the Jackalope scary.

I hope I succeeded!

Held down the fort passing out candy while our teenager roamed the street with friends.

Only like 5 people today knew what a jackalope was!!! Is this an obscure thing? Was it a 90's thing?

The Rare Lake Merritt Jackalope was on the loose today. 🦌 🐇

Happy Halloween folks!

I blow off steam after work sometimes by wandering the thrift.

Took home Spaceteam, left everything else.

But also, it must not have been too bad of a work day, I got to play Word on the Street as an ice breaker. 🥳

The description of Lay An Egg is wild. Are we just poking a chicken as a family activity?!?!
