Wow I forgot this place existed. Hiiii! I’ve been busy with medical shit and the switch 2!

Okay it has been far too long sooo here are my middle of the night updates:

Also, started Jojo Moyes’ The Giver of Stars today and I’m just not into it, and it’s okay to DNF a book you’ve been meaning to read for five years. There are too many stories to get through, read what you love! #booksky

Deep into my 2 weeks of Minecraft per year. Aren’t peonies the best?! 🩷🥹

Yes, I play on peaceful and build a weird cottagecore house, why do you ask

Saw the Minecraft movie in a theatre with all teens who knew the memes and clapped for them. I also knew the memes. It was fun and I forgot there was a new Great Depression for 2 hours. 7/10, would do it again.

It also reminded me that Minecraft is a cheap recession era game!

But at least I did our taxes and the government owes me money so we can just add that to the nest egg labeled “impending job loss and economic crash.” That’s something, I suppose.

It’s 4am and I’m awake, arguing in the stock subreddit over which economic signs are the actual worst and which are just moderately bad 🥴

Shoutout to the absolute legend who donated an NWT Marcella jumpsuit to my local goodwill. I am never getting this good of a thrift score again 🥲

We hung the curtains tonight, they look so good with the new paint! Now to figure out what to put on this wall 🤔

Some recent thrift finds. Not pictured: the framed screenprint of Fenway, the framed paint by numbers paintings, the many books, and the glass jars. Going to paint most of what’s in this pic! Except for the cool wooden thing, that’s going to hold matches.

About to spend the same amount I spent on conveyor belt sushi tonight on this week’s groceries. Everything in moderation?

Long day. Sunday reset was more like a deep clean… I might need to embrace minimalism

Important update: found moss growing in my window frame. Hazards of living in the PNW?

#sundayreset day! I’ll be back when I’ve cleaned my bathrooms and put away laundry and vacuumed
March 23, 2025 at 8:51 PM
And just finished an #invisiblemending on a nice jumpsuit I thrifted, ready to wear it tomorrow now hopefully :)

I hated the way my feature wall looked, so I extended it out on either end with some fun angles. Now it’s more my vibe and cost nothing!

This looks greener than it is: it’s SW Jadeite and the white is BM Classic Gray.

Another day, another thrifted drying rack. This one holds a massive load of laundry!

I’m very privileged to have the time to hunt down things I want/need secondhand to avoid buying new in this economy, I’ll admit. If any of my friends are looking for something specific, tell me!

Dried sage smells AMAZING and I’m always reminded of this when putting it away #growyourown
March 12, 2025 at 11:10 PM
Tomorrow’s agenda: see if the sage I cleared out is dried yet, make breadcrumbs from old sourdough, grocery outlet run, wash my new screw top mason jar lids, continue putting off my taxes
March 12, 2025 at 9:15 AM
I also saw this on Reddit yesterday and it makes sense, so I thrifted a drying rack. Cheaper and environmentally friendly is kinda my thing rn!

This has been a great week of prepping the garden for spring and for thrift finds! Started a bunch of seeds, bought more blueberry bushes, bought a grape vine and a fig tree!

Also donated to the library’s thrift store and dug up a bunch of strawberry runner plants that I repotted. Very productive!

Don’t worry, tho, I’m all in on not spending money tomorrow! Economic boycotts are a small step in showing how we can wield power. #buynothing
