Crazy cat lady, archaeologist-curator, knitter; pronouns she/her
Day 14 #fiberuarychallange “love” - sign speaks for itself #50501protest
February 18, 2025 at 2:54 AM
Day 13 for #fiberuarychallenge “favorite “- the cat’s favorites. Canvas/felt fish toys I randomly picked are Taters, spuds will steal plastic lids and plays fetch w pompom & twisty from coffee bags. Cinder lives for springs

Catch up with #fiberuarychallenge day 12 “unfinished business “- cart by my chair has various status of projects, active, leftovers waiting to be put away, changed mind… cart I found by my complex’s dumpster- washed some metal bending, almost good as new

Day 11 of #fiberuarychallenge “texture”- Decided this shawl will become a representation of the “ugly holiday sweater” but shawl. Plan on adding stuff to the green area and the solid red area- that part has not been planned out quite yet

Day 10 of #fiberuarychallenge “mood board”- it’s cold damp dreary grey out. Not even pretty white snow. Fits one of a major moods these days (the other is rage & spite)

Back track to day 6 of #fiberuarychallenge “pop of color”- just got this skein today from colleague since she wanted it to go a good home and coincidentally I will be test knitting & this yarn may be used

And day 9 for #fiberuarychallenge “Sunday funday” is not usually fun persay? It’s cleaning (& attempt of laundry but someone was doing a years worth today? #apartmentliving)

Day 8 “lay flat fun” cat version for #fiberuarychallenge. Look at the floofy tater belly

Day 7 (day 6 has not been done yet) #fiberuarychallenge “mood booster”. Pretty buttons are a mood booster, shell buttons are from a friends stash that I’m going to use on this scarf cowl thing for her. Knitting is my sorta escape and I’m at a point that I have enough knits so sharing

Day 5 of #fiberuarychallenge “works in progress “. Socks for sis while calling reps #sandinthegears

#fiberuarychallenge day 3 “Monday morning “
Like all mornings- it’s mostly driven by cats, they need food, litter cleaned, toy fish tossed (taters), pets in the sink (spuds), demands for lap time (cinder)

#fiberuarychallang day 2 “looking forward “ - well that’s a hard one as of late isn’t it? But I’ll go with having a full set of teeth again? Had to have one front removed due to bone disintegration (car accident when I was kid plus bad genetics) so going the implant route

Decided to do #fiberuary here started by Creative Cici (via Instagram). Day one is “hi”
I describe myself as a spinster cat lady. I balance between liking outside and being a hermit. Knitting helps w the hermiting. Day job as my handle states, I’m a curator of archaeological materials

What I did today- helped at a historic black cemetery. Had been neglected for years but slowly been peeling back years of overgrowth. Local university has been mapping found graves. Should note only couple hours south of DC- was not that cold.

I’m back to how I felt about the government 20+ years ago pre Iraq invasion. Didn’t see the usefulness of protests etc. Fed govt doesn’t give a shit bout us, cept now it’s even worse. I’m not going to do nothing of course but it’ll be local/community based.
And cats as pallet cleanser

Quietness during and after a snowfall is something I always appreciate. It’s a distinct quiet.
January 11, 2025 at 12:47 PM
Has there been a study on decrease of productivity when have cats and it gets cold out? Cause I may be afflicted here
December 15, 2024 at 10:03 PM
Cinder is even enjoying some of the #MST3k festivities

Annual tradition- turkey marathon. And I cook lots of food for myself

Sharing my Spudsy who plays fetch. His brother yam (mom has him) also fetches. Pom poms (minus the glitter part- he’s particular) or the wide twist ties from coffee bags. He’s a weirdo

This seems like a good place to share- archaeologist Barbies that my mom adjusted to be more field appropriate (she made them socks for eg). She made the screen and the excavation unit. Sourced the shovels and pick.

In other news there is a bug of some sort
