Formerly @phira from Twitter. She/her, USA. World's ending and stuff, but somehow I still have to shower and make dinner for the kids.
On the one hand, I am very, very, very unhappy that my new doctor's office does 2 days of prep instead of 1. On the other hand, in the past two weeks, multiple people have told me they've had to reschedule because of failed prep. So at least this might prevent that from happening.

I refused to watch or let my kids watch Home Alone 2 on principle, but I guess the kids noticed it on streaming and begged to watch it. Spouse let them know Mom had said no, but 7yo realized that he could message me through GChat while I was at the store.

Anyway, here's the print out (reversed because you have to flip it to transfer). Pray for mojo.

Way back when, for Kid 1's first birthday, I learned how to do frosting transfers and made him a cake that was a play on those Usborne "That's Not My ..." book series. (I didn't realize I didn't have black food coloring until it was too late, forgive me.)

@rosannapansino.bsky.social My kids are currently interested in playing "chef," demanding to make "real food recipes," so we found a Nerdy Nummies recipe we could make on short notice/no time to go to Michael's. (Pink) Navi pops (free-handed wings) were a moderate success!

We accidentally startled one in our backyard today! Much bigger than the bunnies we normally see. Both kids got to see it, so they were downright delighted.

Thanks @mindseyeyarns.bsky.social for the yarn recs! Made this korok and korok seed using Circulo natural cotton and Queensland Collection Coastal Cotton. The latter was especially lovely to work with, very smooth!

This is giving me flashbacks to my then-2-year-old's biblically accurate gingerbread men.

Listen, CVS, I admit that I should have paid a little more attention to the drug name. But I've been buying your brand of cetirizine for literally decades and this is the first time I've ever accidentally bought a completely different drug. I think this one might be on you.

Finally got my 4-year-old to try drawing. He's very insistent that he can't (even though he does at school!) so I pulled out a classic Ed Emberley book and we drew a spider side by side. I am so proud of him, and more importantly, he's proud of himself!

I let my kids pick out yarn for me to use to make them new gloves/mittens and hats. My 6yo picked out the most '90s yarn color I've ever seen. @mindseyeyarns.bsky.social I'll be sure to share the finished products when I'm finally done!

My spouse bought me the menorah of my dreams about 10 years ago, and I love it so much, but it's entirely glass plus little metal inserts for the candles, cleaning it is a nightmare.

I'm super sick with I don't even know what, but I did finished my first amigurumi project. I do not like crochet and am not very good at it, so I don't know how much amigurumi is in my future.

every time I see this photo of my oldest kid, the day we brought him home from the hospital, I say, "awwww my potato!"
