That sounds cool! I have a butterfly in my cabinet, and I tried to talk my daughter into letting me put the shark jaw shadowbox I made her years ago in it, but she wants it in her room.

Of course!

I spend a lot of time hyperfocusing on home decor lately, so I'm glad it could help 😅

I have always wanted both, but now I want a llama too 😂

Happy New Year to you, too!

What's your NY's resolution?

The bay is notorious for having very shallow areas. We got stuck last year temporarily in the silt at Angel Island.

Very cool!!

We had dinner with my partner's best friend last night who was helping us move some things.

He's a diver, and I told him about your dives for wrecks. He knows a guy who does that professionally in the Bay and there are apparently 1-2 salvages a month???!!!

Didn't you get costrophobic with less light and so much water overhead???

I was able to clear the right ear just fine. I have very narrow canals and almost had that surgery as a kid.

About six months after the dive, they cleaned out my ears and found the end of one of those earpick cleaners shoved against my left eardrum. It was probably what was causing the pressure 😅

Let me know how it goes!! What are you displaying?

I'm going to try out the longer brick motion sensing ones when I have the money to get them. I'll tell you how those ones work out.

Thank you!

I've had that antique singer at my ex's house for 8 years. I'm excited that I was finally able to get it

Thank you!

I need to touch up the wall by the trim, but I have a stabbing pain in my back now.

I can't complain about it either because my partner is going to give me grief for not having him hang the heavy painting.

I'm not good at waiting 😬

I traded out the black frames for these very cheap BOGO brown ones, but they look less modern.

It is frustrating putting hooks in the wall because of my degenerative neuromuscular disease. I measure up the length of the hook and do a starter hole since I can't hold the hook against the wall.
