The pictures are not great but my mom loved what I made for her 65th birthday! It's a shadowbox pendent of miniature paper irises, her favorite flower, with little loose tanzanite, her birthstone, at the bottom. The irises took me hours to put together using tweezers!

I'm sorry but this list is hilarious to me 😆 I've got a classical covers quartet, two Tolkien soundtrack composers, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer Cast from the musical episode… and Rihanna.

Working from home today so I went to the gym beforehand. This was a mistake. Even though I skipped the cardio I'm exhausted. I knew I was not the type of person that can have physical activity literally ruin the rest of my day…

Y'all the plumber had an expensive recommendation for our issue but is also sending someone to double check that it isn't something much much worse… he's afraid it might be a take up the floor/jackhammer the foundation/replace the pipes kind of issue. 🫠🫠🫠

We have had plumbing issues at least five times this month and I am at my wits' end. Last estimate was "if this is what is wrong it would be $1000 to fix, if it's *this* that's wrong it would be $1700 to fix" and they don't know what's wrong because they can't ever replace the issue 😭

I’ve got my top three paint colors. I’m leaning toward the top, it’s more a middle blue but it is significantly darker than what I’ve had before. The darker color would be what I would want to do if I was able to add moldings &/or wallpaper! Damn textured walls…

Trying to pick a paint color for my bedroom and my instinct is to go for a saturated, darker tone of blue. But I am worried if it’s too dark I won’t like it long term!

Oof, looked at a picture of myself and thought “man I’ve gained so much weight the past few weeks!” Well I just weighed myself and I have not gained a pound… which means I’ve just actually looked like this for over a year and have been in denial about it. 🙃

My dog is just casually napping and I’m a ball of anxiety over her, thinking about how bad the fireworks are going to be in a few hours.
