Felt cute, won’t delete later. This was mainly about trying to show off my nails a tiny bit, since I had just finished them. I made the effort to try and shape and file my nails, put down base coat, all that fancy shizz. The only reason I’ve not put topcoat on is that with the blue, at least, I… Read more »

I had both nail mail, and crafting mail today. I don’t know what it is about getting a bunch of jump rings in a pill organiser-esque tray is so joyful, but it totally is. And polish is… well… polish. All three colours are gorgeous, so it’s going to be interesting to see what I end up deciding to do tomorrow…. Read more »

If you build it, then they’ll fuck off to another room. That was the plan, and now it’s in place, ha ha. Which is to say, we bought a half-desk for Littler so we could set her up in the study with her sister, which has been well received. It fits the space as if it were custom made for… Read more »

I don’t know if it’s ’cause of the weather, or because my getting to sleep was thrown off by bad dream-having child, but I’m ‘enjoying’ what I call my baby fibro. Which is to say, I’ve had all around low-grade aching all day, which is sooo much fun (it’s really not, ha ha). But eh, I made a pair of… Read more »

Yus, Littler has levelled up again. She’s been having a great birthday. She got presents that she loved from us, from her grandparents, and from E/J/j as well (who popped over to drop pressie off, and got ‘stuck’ hanging around when the kiddos ran off to play). The girls are currently in the kitchen with Z doing Lego kits, as… Read more »

Yuss, I’m still somewhat on my earring kick. I don’t know what else, if anything else, I want to do this evening, but we’ll see. Really, I think that I am going to aim to curl up with my knitting and zone out. I might make the effort to list these once I think up names (I’ve done passable photography… Read more »

I had a hankering to fiddle around and do some earrings last night, so I got out the odds and sods bin to prod around in. Of course, that meant that Smaller decided she needed a bracelet asap. Fair enough, I whipped one up that she was happy with. Then Smalls complained that I didn’t ask her if she wanted… Read more »

One of the people in the village has a Mini in British racing green — with these rear lights. How very… very… very British. Which is to say, it makes me smile every time I see it, and I hope that it’s there for a long time yet. And yes, it means I left the house. I had an Etsy… Read more »

And it says that I still have at least 2 inches to go on the leg before I move on. I think that I will likely go longer than the recommended 6 inches, especially since I’m working with a 100g ball of wool, so. We’ll see. The pattern is familiar to my hands now, so it’s not particularly difficult to… Read more »

I messed up on taking my meds last night, which of course, had some pretty severe knock-on effects. I ended up throwing myself back in bed before Z left for work, and slept on until he got back. So where I normally can’t nap, I can *usually* rely on my body being so effed up after that sort of night… Read more »
