@TheComicHunter Thank you! I wish I could find more of that yarn, but it's looking like perhaps the dyer isn't in business anymore.


This is hard today y'all, I am *struggling* right now.
1. I have a very supportive husband and I'm leaning on him right now
2. I'm trying to be proactive regarding my career and that is improving my mood somewhat
3. I'm making good progress on the Sorceress Scarf, hopefully it'll be done yet this week


1. I finished my Nurmilintu shawl last night (Rav link - ravelry.com/patterns/library/n)
2. I'm making good progress on my other projects
3. I'm enrolled in and making good progress with a few online professional development certificates

@Ren3Govender Nope, I am the same delightful ray of sarcastic f*cking sunshine all the time πŸ˜‚

@Yarnchick @kel
Indeed. The trick was that I got my camera angled just right and then worked on a washcloth, which meant I didn't really have to look at my hands at all. πŸ˜‰

I may or may not have just during a zoom meeting in an attempt to keep my raging "resting bitch face" to a minimum. I think it worked.

@see_the_sus He's a big ol' goof 😹 My other two boys have pink toes and they're just as cute


1. I am 4 rows (and the picot bind off) away from being done with my current shawl project
2. I totally botched the improvised recipe for this week's breakfast bowls, but they're making fantastic "smoothies" so it's still a win
3. J and I are finalizing plans for our anniversary trip next month

BONUS - "fear my beans!!!"

@HopeSeeker I try to do it every day, though I'm not good about the weekends 😊


1. we had a super productive weekend and I feel rested and ready for my week
2. the decision to rip the shawl back to where I knew it was good was the right decision; it looks a million times better
3. one of my friends who is a spinner is going to spin some roving that's been in my collection for years

@publickovacs Oh, but that's fantastic! We're constantly telling our faculty to let students see them as humans, especially in online classes. It helps foster a sense of connection and reinforces that there is a Real Live Person on the other side of the screen. 😍

@Notokay @Evereigh I can definitely appreciate that approach 😊


1. we got some of the errands run yesterday after work because the weekend is going to be more than busy (in a good way)
2. it's raining again and we desperately need it
3. I think I finally figured out how to rip out, yet salvage, a shawl that has lace inserts and somehow went horribly wrong

@Evereigh Indeed, like 15 jars of jam/jelly. We just don't talk about it.

@Yarnchick Love that! I do actually have my grandma's recipe for BBQ squirrel around here somewhere...

@JoyfullyDazed

I am lazy, which sounds odd, but I prefer to only have to make the decisions once and then I don't have to think about it again. Plus, we like to buy things like meat when it's on sale so having the menu helps me know what to defrost and when.

@athenacooper Rough is sometimes all it is, but definitely helps when ordering supplies for sure!

@Graci We don't always stick to it, but I like that it helps make sure I have all of the stuff on hand for at least 6 dinners.
