It’s fun starting a new hobby with ADHD because I never know if I’ve found a new lifelong passion or if I’m going to spend $2000 on stuff and immediately lose all interest

First #thewebthatwas post is longer than I wanted. It mixes 3 memories of AOL as a kid, 'cause none really felt complete.

I can finally share the blanket I made my mom for xmas! I did a fan stitch and used premier anti-pilling acrylic yarn. I ordered a special little tag for it too saying I made it with her mom's crochet hooks 🪡
And it wasn't too arduous! I would absolutely make another blanket.

We're looking for organizations to support this year! Have one close to your heart? Drop it below!
In 2024, we donated $579.01 across 13 different orgs. Not as much as previous years but still proud of it.

Got a Hot Tip™️ from my bestie that many people across meta woke up to find they were auto-added to following a sexual predator felon and the current vp. Checked for a laugh, it's not a joke. Check who you're following- if you can even find where to check it. Searched by name 🤮 because I couldn't.

Starting to peek out of my winter-hiding-slump by planning my first resin class of 2025 for February! Looking like a 2 part class, pouring one week and cleaning & finishing pieces the next. Just finalizing the times 😄
