Started New York 2140 a few days ago… about 5 minutes after this cozy moment of reading over lunch… the landscapers started their engines behind me.

Fun fact, I compete in a very niche sport and I seem to have almost no photographic evidence I throw.
This weekend I threw for Grace, who always called me her Shield Maiden.

A few days ago I lost my soul sister, best friend, and co-worker, Grace Gonzalez. It’s shocking and I don’t yet know how to process it.
But I know it will involve smiles and tears and glitter and music.

Just finished Atmosphere. I rarely read romances, but wrap it in a jacket of the early shuttle days of NASA and we can talk.
It’s the first time I saw a character who never expected to have a relationship, and watch them realize they aren’t broken in a way that’s very identifiable to my Aceish 💜

Library additions over the past two weeks.
Yes… more Trek.
But excited for The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet. I’ve heard great things.
I love used books!!

There used to be two adorable icons I used as markers on my long runs, rainbow colored bicyclists in helmets going each way.
Apparently showing kids they should wear helmets when they bike is a threat to their safety.
Fuck off Florida. This is really the hill you want to die on?

Lining is in! All that’s left is the cuffs and hardware!
I’m hand stitching in the lining to the cuffs since those are always tricky to me, plus I modified the pattern pretty heavily there, so need to do some improv work.
Next project is already lined up.

Who’s idea was it to make a jacket out of the two most finicky fabrics in the world…
Oh… that’s right… me… I’m the problem…

Zippers aren’t my strong suit, so I hand sewed these in to be a bit more precise. Still needs a good steam and their pocket bags.
Sewing with velvet is a bitch.

First… I thought I was done making blazers, but then I saw this masterpiece on Foundation and I instantly knew I needed to make this… I’m already hunting fabric.
Second… Alexander Siddig is the best.

Finally starting my next project. A moto jacket made from this STUNNING quilted velvet upholstery fabric I found months ago. I can’t even capture the true color of it.
Also because I’m me and it wasn’t extra enough. Sparkly embroidery.
Also just finished Eve by Cat Bohannon. Fascinating ideas!

Look, if nothing else, I will have all the cucumbers and pickles in the world… this isn’t a bad thing.
Also my first little baby carrot! I should have left him, but we’re here now.

Garden update. We already have flowers on cucumbers and melons! Baby tomatoes are finally starting to take off. We will also have a sage forest soon.

Garden update! Cucumbers and melon is doing GREAT!
Tomatoes still need to get a little bigger before they move to the garden. I think I need to plant the seedlings in larger pots for a few weeks. Not sure why they’re stalled.
Clearly we can have some kale soon.

Kaylee Thor is unimpressed with the new camera. Squirrels are more interesting.

April 1st garden update! Things are growing! We started our seeds outside, which means they had some fluctuations in temp and have been slower to grow, but they’re finally showing progress.
We also have a ton of mushrooms in the garden bed. Hopefully that’s a good thing and soil is happy?
