there has never been a more perfect final turn of a pokemon emerald item randomizer- two of my favorite pokemon, one being a full odds shiny, and a perish song from wallace's last pokemon

not pictured: the level 72 swampert (my favorite starter) who swept the elite 4 but swapped out on perish song

I got new Lucy & Yak pants and was so excited to wear them to work that I fully ✨got ready✨ for the first time in weeks only for all of my meetings AND the fun lunch to be canceled 😔

finally got the new art on the walls above the new dresser 🎉 ft. customized art of my favorite, life-changing Crane Wives song & a piece I fell in love with a couple months ago! (neither people are on here for me to tag them 😔)

cons: extracty (derogatory), still depressed
pros: extracty (nostalgic), shocked out of PMDD spiraling from shaking the bag with the ice in it

now to figure out if I can justify taking a third sick day/mental health day within a week and a half

It's been years of burnout recovery since I finished anything, but I'm a fiber artist! I focus on cross stitch and punch needle but have tried my hand at a lot of others. I'm trying to get back to it but Ruby likes to eat all of my yarn and string 😅 #punchneedle #crossstitch #craftsky

ruby is a very sleepy baby after her injections this morning and has dozed on my lap for most of the day- she IS keeping her wet food down, though!

about to annoy all my parent friends when i tell them that i too know what it's like to be vomited on by a 2-year-old at midnight and forced to wash your bedding in the middle of the night

my little pickle is pickling VERY hard at the moment but she is still a big ol' sweetie

we've had a bit of a "can't keep food down" saga the past couple of days and part of it is that ruby keeps eating way too fast, even from the slow feed mat i got her. we're making do with what we have while i figure out a better slow feed method for wet food!

i've only had my ruby baby for a day and she's already so popular that my apartment complex is naming her pet of the month, and who could blame them??

i'm finally adopting a cat this weekend (!!!) and my cousin who volunteers at the humane society has been sending me pics of ones they think would be a good fit.

they sent me an orange cat named goo today and i don't think a more perfect cat could possibly exist

idk if I'll get him but we'll see!

two years ago, i buried myself in cross stitch when my mom received a scary health diagnosis and made this for her to match her christmas decor. i think it was the last big project i made before i hit my creative block? i feel the same urge to create now, but i don't know where to start. #craftsky
