I'm so excited for this aspect of Legacy Expo! Books and a love of literature are incredibly important to many of us working on this convention, and we are so happy to be able to partner with The Book Truck to put more books in the hands of teens!
Get ready for The Book Truck Book Drive at Legacy Expo!

Legacy Expo is partnering with The Book Truck as our charity partner for this year’s convention; all proceeds from the con will be donated to The Book Truck, which aims to improve literacy and gives away thousands [1/5]

As one of my friends put it, "I like that you're the type of craftsperson who just says 'my sewing project wasn't working so I got my soldering iron out' "

Last trip to Joanns. Thanks for 30 years of being my supplier for all things sewing and craft. 💔

Tour de JoAnns stop 1
May 24, 2025 at 5:34 PM
JoAnns is officially in what I would call closeout pricing. Everything I saw was at least 70% off and they're doing 50% off of everything on top of that. I'm considering going on a tour of the nearby ones tomorrow to see if there's a different selection than what I hit up tonight...

Also! I am pretty happy with how this forearm guard turned out! I just need to find a better sealant so I'm not dyeing my arm green when I wear it.

Back at it at the archery range a little more than a week after surgery! I couldn't find my medical cotton gauze so I used some fabric cotton gauze to wrap around my bandages to keep the dust out lol.

I live! Now with slightly less titanium! I got to keep some of it! Now I'm going to get off the Internet because I probably shouldn't be posting while I'm on the stuff they prescribed me, but I wanted to tell everyone I'm okay!
May 9, 2025 at 6:30 PM
Surgery #8 tomorrow! Let's get some titanium out of my knee and ankle!!! 🥳 This should be that last surgery following my October 2023 accident, and I'm really kriffing ready to be done with this.
