I'd imagine there's all kind of fictional fun to be had with that one.

hi there!! ☺️

this could def be fun to play around with, all that long distance, cross border travel and trying to coordinate schedules 🤔

oh my god i can only imagine the stories you have!

isles-canes match up for a second year in a row after the refs fucked us last year means this series is going to be physical and insane for sure

Apparently some cats are attracted to the yeast smell in bread? You'll often see yeast on the list of ingredients in cat treats. Anyway, 10/10 thievery score. You've got a little rogue growing!

Yeast and butter, man...enough to make a hardened criminal of the nicest cat.

That’s the oddest part -- I eat buttered toast around them all the time and they never give a damn. Granted, I don’t usually buy english muffins (Mum is coming to visit this week and they’re for her) but their total lack of interest until now might simply have been a ruse while they waited for me to leave the muffin unguarded.

but look at that face..

:SCREAMING: OH MY GOD IT LOOKS SO GOOD, YOU COULD HONESTLY KEEP IT AS BLACKWORK?????

HAHAH, I was hoping you’d see it! Glad you like it. (Don’t think about what the back looks like.)

I’ve considered keeping it as blackwork -- my initial goal was just to get the blackwork done and if I did that I’d be satisfied -- but now that it’s finished I think the color will be fun to do, though I may simplify it a bit. My original idea was that I would do the blackwork when I could concentrate and then if I wanted, fill the colors on my commute, while traveling or watching TV, etc. I’m not going to be commuting until at the earliest June and probably more like July, but I do attend meetings by phone when I can work on it, and even without commute time I’m estimating I could be done by the end of summer (end of winter was my estimate for the blackwork and I would have managed that but for the concussion). 

In the meantime I’ve ordered black aida for the Schroedinger’s Cat pattern, which will be a nice break and a project I’ve wanted to do for a while.

Hee hee. I used a slab of mine for - get this - Scrambled eggs with Hollandaise and chives on top! It felt so cheeky that I'm still chortling.

That sounds AMAZING. Especially since the focaccia is so prone to soaking up sauce, that must have been delicious!

2/3 The Big Sister: When I was 19/20 I lived in a shared house with my then-BF. After several weird blips, we wrote down what we saw and compared notes. The commonalities were: girl about 15-18, shoulder length dark hair, 1940ish short sleeved button down dress with belt. She stood outside our bedroom door looking worried. After a few months in that house, the BF and I realized that the screw holes on our bedroom door jamb meant the door locked from the OUTSIDE. We knew it had been a kids' room.

Oh. God. Yes. These are such good stories. Do you remember anything else about the man you’d see as a child? I think that one is especially wild to me because you SPOKE to him. It wasn’t just an apparition it was an intelligent haunting.

The second story reminds me of one of the places I used to work at. It was a building built in the 1870s and was so super charming. Also intensely haunted. It eventually came out that me, my aunt who owned the place, and another kid who worked there as well as the tenants upstairs would all see the same three apparitions: a little girl in a white frock with her hair in braids who would press against the glass doors, a boy who would run down the hallway and into the stairs, and a woman who would walk from bedroom one on the second floor to bedroom two in a long night shift. I have such good memories of that place ♥️

LUUUUCK!! Not that you’ll need it, because you have skill and talent and guile.

Sending you legal clarity and the cell-deep awareness that you can be utterly likeable but still FUCK NICE when there's a need to get stuff done and protect yourself!
