I want your art on my walls but I don't know how!
How do I safely attach art prints to drywall without ruining either of them, or putting every print in a frame?
Metal plate with magnets?
Pin board and balance the prints without putting holes in them?

Will a new paper planner fix me? Locally made sustainable materials for $84?
Or should I get medicated properly and not be such a mess?

Hello! Just a reminder that I have multiple free cross stitch OFMD patterns on my Kofi! Mostly crew patterns (one Stede), varying difficulty. If you are UK crew and would like to try cross stitch but can't afford supplies I will also happily send you some by post 🧵🪡💜

Oh my goodness I unboxed my new vacuum cleaner too enthusiastically and something behind my shoulder blade has seized again.
So in case you wanted to know how old I am, it's that old...
After 9 days of a neck muscle related headache that ibuprofen, heat, and stretching didn't touch, I went for massage therapy yesterday and I don't have a headache anymore 🥹

Seize the day apparently only applies to a couple of very specific muscles in my shoulder and neck that cause headaches. Could we not.

Posted some sweetness (with a little 🌶) of Ed crushing hard on Stede. Includes the one bed trope, a slightly voyeuristic shower situation, and "unrequited" pining. 7300 words, Mature. Enjoy 💗💗🫶🫶💕💕

Last night I had pumpkin pie for the first time (as well as yams with tiny marshmallows) and let me say; I can see why y'all do that. It's so good. As someone who had only eaten savoury pumpkin I was sceptical, but I am changed.

I was feeling pretty sad that my friends are camping without me this weekend but then I got to borrow a sewing machine and THEN I got two separate invitations to Thanksgiving dinners on different days with people I dance with and actually I've got a pretty special community and I might cry happy.

Hey. Sometimes the world is good and lovely, and it wraps you up in hope and beauty and warmth. Like it was a shawl.

The group who won were called The Coven btw.

“There. Much better” Ed whispered softly as he rested his chin on Stede’s shoulder.

Boyfriend's pockets are the best pockets. Ed says so. Got to do an illustration for @watchtheflow.bsky.social's toasty sweet 'Bonfire Night'! 🧡

Nothing like watching your younger sibling hit all the life milestones before you to make you feel even more lonely and inadequate than you already did 🙃
