WorldCon was amazing and wonderful and wild, and I had the chance to spend time with some of my absolutely favorite people.
Now: home, where I spent an hour picking blackberries in the sun and hanging out with my new little friend.

Hit the @pnwwitchesmarket.bsky.social yesterday with friends and picked up some lovely stickers from @craftedfromscratch.bsky.social!
Which is also a reminder to use those stickers you love! Don't stuff them in a drawer waiting for the perfect notebook or event. You can always get more.
