So i've been monitoring Java almost constantly since her surgery, right? And i figure i can leave for an hour or two today to do some damn grocery shopping right?

But mom texted and asked me to come upstairs to put Java's cone back on for the night since it's been off all day. I come up and ask 'Where's Java?'

'Oh, she's upstairs in the guest room.'

....

She's upstairs. Unsupervised. With no cone or onesie on or ANYTHING to protect her incision site?!?!?!?

An hour later, he texted to apologize

And it's a damn good thing he did because otherwise I was about to leave him high and dry for mother's day

I bake the treats. I arrange and buy the gifts. I buy the cards. He signs one.

I could have just not given him a card to sign. Not told him to pitch in for the gift. He would look like a terrible fucking son and I would have just let him burn

So I looked online for patterns and kits

Almost every damn one I found was either for embroidery (not cross stitch specifically) or was fuckin' AI generated

So I thought, fine. I'll make my own pattern. There's sites and stuff where I can do that. I just need a good picture of a cardinal to base it on

And all I can find is fucking AI generated bullshit
