Throwing this tip out to teachers - a completely silent fidget. I picked these faux fur fabric patches at the dollar store. My autistic students are loving them. I’ll just toss them in the wash when needed.

@rickriordan.bsky.social Mr. Riordan, you are fantastic writer and my students are enjoying your book. But, and I am sorry about this, you might be disliked by middle school teachers for a while. Smelly Gabe struck hard w/this line. When the “6/7” craze is done, teachers will be good with you again.

Me, while watching The Great British Baking Show: I don’t think I’ve ever had a trifle. I don’t know what it is.
Hubby: Oh, it’s a small thing.

I purchased this art at Gen Con 2025. We’d been on the lookout for a good frame. Found one at Goodwill this evening.

Here’s a game I’ve never played - Orléans. The whole of GameHoleCon is just going to be us trying out games not in our personal collection. I hear really good things about this game. I’ve taken something for my headache and hoping to enjoy myself. #boardgames

We played a game of Beer and Bread. I liked everything about this game except the exchange drafting every other turn. It took a lot of strategy away and I just started collecting resources randomly in hopes I could make something. #boardgames

Hubby and I watched an anime about board games. We saw the characters play Marrakech and have wanted to try it ever since. Getting our chance at GameHoleCon. #boardgames

I was mad when Etsy seller sent me a sweatshirt instead of the hoodie I ordered for my Halloween costume. Seller refuses to fix problem. Hubby suggested I crochet a hat with flaps and add the 3 eyes to ea flap. Now my K-Pop Demon Hunter Sussy costume is complete. #Halloween

Decided to play Lorenzo il Magnifico. Hubby told me we played this at the Gen Con just before pandemic and I walked away epically pissed off. Apparently, the guy teaching the game was not great and told everyone rules as they came up. I enjoyed this play through quite a bit. #boardgames

Day 2 of GameHoleCon, started by playing Metro. This game was lots of fun. #boardgames

Was able to go to GameHoleCon on day one. We checked out the game library and tried Belfort. Not a bad worker placement at all. #boardgames

I knew not to shop with Etsy and I did it anyway. Now my costume is less than ideal bc the seller sent the wrong thing.

Anyone ever played this game? Just found it at a thrift store for $3. It has a good rating on BGG so seemed worth a try for the price. #boardgames

It’s boot season! This pair of Blundstone belongs to coworker. Been keeping them going for 3yrs now. 3yrs ago, she brought them to me with a massive turkey grease stain. She heard I was the best on staff, and she heard correctly. Just cleaned these boots and abt to waterproof. #boots

I didn’t care for the end of K-Pop Demon Hunters, but I found the rest cute. My students on the other hand…yeah, 11 yr olds are all about it. I bought a Sussy costume and d/l the soundtrack for Halloween. Feel free to judge. 🤷🏻‍♀️ #Golden

The world is a dumpster fire, but at least I have board games. Just thrifted this pile of board games for $35. All except two games were $2.30. #boardgames

I’ve had better days at work. I’m going to hope tomorrow is a way better day than today. #teaching

Thrifted three crochet books today. I picked up this Loop d-Loop Crochet for this cardigan/coat pattern. Not even sure I can do this without a video for help, but the book only cost $2.50 so can afford to dream big. #crochet

Counting up our final points for Vineyard. I lost 36 to 29. Overall good game. We did mess up one rule, but not too big of a deal. #boardgames
