Tried my hand at dyeing my own Aida. It’s not perfect, but I’m pleased with it regardless and found it fitting for this little pattern I found.

And the last UK house SAL has been completed. Canterbury. One of our first road trips in England took us to canterbury on our way to Dover. I have really enjoyed this SAL and I’m sad that it’s over. Cheers.

An another home finished. Two more to go and that wraps up the 2023 Stich across the Uk cross stitcher magazine had put out. I know I’m super behind, but I’ve loved stitching these and missing our old lives in East Anglia.

Tobermory was next up in the cross stitch across the UK. Glad to be getting through these. Hoping for finish of the rest of the houses in the next month or two so I can get started on Halloween stitching.

Next cross stitch across the UK brought us to York. It was my favorite city in England. Really loved visiting it. Stitching it though? Yeeeeesh. But it’s done!!

Current events got my anxiety high. So I’m thankful I brought this with me on our trip. Another one down. This was a fun one to do.

Pushing through on my cross stitch across the UK from 2023. I’m caught up on the months (this is July) however this is 2 years delayed, so I’m just gonna keep pushing and hopefully by October I won’t be stitching homes in the UK anymore. Gotta say, not in love with this month’s house.

The may reads. I definitely didn’t find myself reading a lot this month.

Getting through my stitch across the Uk from 2023’s cross stitcher magazine. This one was one of my favorites in the series. Whilst driving to Bury St Edmunds from Mildenhall I would see a few thatched roof cottages and would swoon. This brought back that memory.

Trucking through my stitch across the UK from my cross stitcher magazines from 2023. I never got to visit Glastonbury, and it was deffo a bucket list item to visit the Tor. Perhaps another road trip is necessary!

Cross Stitcher magazine’s 2023 stitch along continues. I am a bit behind 🤣 but now Ive just finished Cardiff. The twins commented how it looks like our home when we lived in East Anglia.

In an effort to consume less I’ve started to mend my clothes. I’m getting better at darning my socks.

Alright, I think people knew of the tariff pause and traded it beforehand.

You can see before Trump posted "buy" on Truth Social, traders opened $QQQ $TQQQ and $SPY calls

RIGHT BEFORE THE NEWS, someone opened $SPY 509 calls, expiring TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those calls are up 2100% in one hour.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.

Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

I don't think people understand how bad it's going to be with the world looking at us as clowns.

Not just this administration. The conversation is that the American voters are poorly informed and reckless.

You might not care, but you will.
