Because it probably needs to be said: I’m left-wing. I’m pro-LGBTQIA+ rights. I’m pro-women’s reproductive rights and pro-choice. I’m pro-vaccine, pro-science. I’m also pagan-leaning and anti-hypocritical-“Christian”. So basically anti-incoming-US-presidential-administration.
For years now, I’ve had a tiny Christmas tree. I replaced the old one for one slightly bigger a few years ago because I loved this bronze tinsel. Upgraded the lights to USB plug in, made new ornaments. It sits on my nightstand. Got some fandom things on it. 🎄

Finished my drawing of Taylor Swift. Used the original cover of Red but made her closer to her present age just ‘cause.

I’ve wanted one of these for YEARS, started collecting roses I liked back in, I think, 2018? Was waiting til I had enough components and a good-sized frame. It has all my fave flowers & rose quartz on it. I’m incredibly happy with how it turned out. #wreath #flowerarrangements #diywreath #witchy

After 10 years, I finally have answers to my severe back & hip pain for which I’ve had surgeries & procedures, MRIs & X-rays. I was diagnosed last week with Forestier’s disease. My ligaments, tendons, & cartilage are calcifying. There’s no cure, & it’s irreversible & progressive. So that’s fun.

I embroidered a tea towel! Now I just need a pie plate that says “I hope your apple pie was frigging worth it!”

Working on a tea towel (I hemmed it by hand!) and I’m trying to decide if this needs a little something extra to it. I have no idea what. Props if you know this!

Watching a recorded livestream of the parade in Dublin earlier today, on Dame Street. My flat was just off Lord Edward St. I miss Ireland so bad, though I wasn’t there very long.

Made a memory wire friendship bracelet with my favourite line from my favourite #TaylorSwift song.

They’ve turned off reviews and stuff for “Gulf of America” on Google. Guess they were getting too much sass from the general public about it. 🤣

After looking at a ton of 17th and 18th century pin cushions/pillows/balls, I decided to make one. I deliberately made it look like a young teen might do while learning. It’s wool thread on unbleached muslin. The loop is for attaching to the chatelaine I’m making.

Watching “Andor” again. This show is so good. And relevant.

Happy first birthday to our Siamese ruler, Misty!

I’ve embroidered Jacobean designs on an apron. The top was done in October, the pocket this past week. Five months made quite a difference in my skills. I’m planning to revisit the top and clean it up a bit but not right now. #embroidery #diy #jacobeanembroidery

This picture is very satisfying to me. But I’ve realised I need more of the DMC Eco Vita wool flosses because my autism needs to have ALL the colours. And Joann might close and they’re the only vendor near me. So. #embroidery #dmc #diy

Wild Coast Raw, the company responsible for the tainted food which is causing indoor-only cats to die of bird flu, is deleting comments on their Instagram about the topic. So they're killing pets and trying to cover it up. Cool.

I’ve always wanted a sewing box like this, so I bought the base box, stained it, switched out the screws, hinges, added locks, feet, and wood appliqués. Covered the protruding screws. Used Rub’n’Buff on the appliqués and screws, then antiqued it. Might darken the antiquing. #diy #sewing #woodworking

Taylor was so real when she said “all my mornings are Mondays stuck in an endless February” that’s literally what this month feels like

Now that the gift is given, I can post this painting I did of Misty for my mom.

Had to have emergency surgery today to deal w/ a hematoma that was compromising my original incision from surgery on Nov 27. I was awake for this one, done under local. I would have preferred general anesthesia. I did get literal doctor’s orders to treat myself to a donut after, so that was fun.

Was worried I wouldn’t be able to get this, so I talked my parents into driving me to Target on Black Friday. Can’t drive yet. The store was pretty much empty. The book and vinyl were low in stock but plenty of CDs.

Had surgery on Wednesday to complete post-mastectomy reconstruction. They gave me a blood thinner shot to prevent blood clots. That made the hematoma I had forming under the incision start draining out, which completely freaked me out. How was YOUR Thanksgiving?

You know what? I WISH Taylor Swift’s songs had narcotics in them. Because then I could listen to some tunes and get some relief from my chronic pain.
