Laugh daily. It helps.
When I say I put the work in for this, I'm not kidding. It just came in from the order/hold I put on it 3+ months ago! @deecherrywriter.bsky.social

There are some really beautiful options that I'd consider if I didn't have a rolling one. They are usually marketed as spinner rings or fidget rings. This one intrigues me but there are tons.

I don't usually have my large hooks out but today is a lucky day. For scale, this is discontinued Pisgah *double* worsted cotton with a Boye 13 and an unmarked larger hook.

So yes, you might be in garage territory 🤣.

Two protests today, but found the painter John Paul Marcelo set up at one. I asked permission to take this picture but needed to crop out faces because other protestors were too identifiable.

I had no idea of his work but this is so cool!

Thank you Senator Arreguin! @jessearreguin.bsky.social.

I received this almost the same minute I'd called to update my concern about Newsom sending burner phones to tech execs.

You know the difference between me and Mark Cuban? He can pick up the phone and call actual people in actual power who can actually do something and he's choosing to piss into the wind.

My day was more productive.

Bad photo but baby blanket is woven in, blocked, and laundered!
🧶.

Just have to wrap it and get it in the mail!

Okay in the spirit of taking a breath, here's a photo of a baby blanket I'm crocheting for a family friend. 🧶

Today I'm going to paint the repair I did this weekend to a door that a contractor damaged.

Last week, my adult kiddo and I built a headboard out of old slats from an IKEA bed.

I guess first 10% gets elder status? Cool!

But mine doesn't seem to have preset Alt text which is weird so I'm adding it for mine.

C'mon @bsky.app - I think a site wide banner should have had that as a default

I'm dying laughing now - given the problems with Google, I double checked. This is the second entry I clicked on when I googled North New Hyde Park. What the hell?
