Got my early Mother’s Day present. A #Kobalt 4cf lawn cart. Used it to start carrying all the trash from the shed. Still have about 5 trash bags left but this is lined up for tomorrow’s trash run. All but the Kobalt box on the left is from the shed. The cart helped a LOT! #trash #shed #cleaning

Pete Hegseth. Proving that you actually should have actual experience at high level jobs, not just be an “arm chair quarterback” on a weekend show.

Swapping the Winter sheets for Summer ones and I was remind of this video of #Maze from a couple of years ago. She still had Sophie around to train her. #cats #pets #catsofbluesky #chocolatelab

What did I do during my 3-day weekend? Exactly what I wanted to do and didn’t get any grief about it either. I am liking this #singlelife. 6 mo of separation is May 1.

Dammit. Can’t understand directions for a stitch in my #knitting and now my #project has come to a screeching halt until I get “tell me like I am a 5 year old” breakdown of the stitch. 😧

For those that truly celebrate the death and resurrection of Christ, is it the Christ born on the Christmas of 33 years ago?

STBX was bitching abt his parents worrying over “shit that hasn’t happened” I come back w/“this coming from the person who stays up all night doing the same thing”. ….

trump thinks all of his cabinet picks are the best…until they go against his orders and then he can’t distance himself from them fast enough. He did this his first term as well. Such a toddler.

Tfw you have to sneeze but are holding multiple stitch markers between your lips. 😧. #fiberartist #knitting#knit #stitchmarkers

Impromptu work on the shed. It is 78°F and sunny today=hot in the shed! Didn’t stay in for too long. Plus there was a wasp in there flying around. I’ll stick with cooler/rainy weather like next weekend :(. Plus, I will have to start moving things to get to the back. Not too much left though!!

Productive day complete! Peel n stick wallpaper under the outdoor table to keep the flying nest builders from using it and repurposing landscaping cement to create “steps” from the shed so it isn’t such a steep drop down (for someone without depth perception, it’s a scary step!)

Tomorrow is going to be a productive day!!

I asked #Maze where Valen was (in my bedroom) and a few minutes later I hear Maze talking, which she rarely does, and, when I look, she has brought Valen into my office. (That’s her talking in the background). #cats #pets #wfh #catsofbluesky #shelovesme

#Maze likes to spend a few minutes a day in front of my work computers. She takes great care not to step on my keyboard. #Cheza, on the other hand, is a little deep and seems to step on every key possible, usually concentrating on sound keys, on her way to hang out with me. #cats #wfh

Oh, fuck me. VA primaries are the day after I get back from TX. Thankfully, I have done enough of these and work knows that I take the next day off to recuperate. I didn’t do that one time and was almost in tears by mid-day just from dealing with people’s crap.

With so many people/companies capitulating to trump’s bullying and mob-boss tactics, those that stand up to him, like Harvard and Boasberg, just seem really bad-ass and cool.

For the first time in my 45 years a headache has caused me to throw up. 🥺. Thank fuck my work calendar is light today I don’t feel as bad pawning off a single 30 min session to a coworker.

I have a light beside my bed that is really great but it is touch adjusted and, if you tap the “target”, it goes thru 5 lvls of brightness. If you “long press”, it turns off. Issue is, I can’t see the target! So I have to lay my whole hand across the surface to turn the lamp off. #visuallyimpaired

Worked out after work. Am doing the week trial of #DDPYoga. Since I #workout at home, a lot of my programs are just a shade outside of my skill/endurance level. Esp when it’s been awhile. Is neat that #DDPY goes from Bed stretches up to….? I am on Beginner + and found it challenging enough.

#Maze and #Cheza are not cuddly cats. Especially Maze. So, it always catches me a little off guard when I walk into the bedroom and see them this close to each other without fighting

The sucky part about not being able to drive: I either have to get STBX to take me to his parents house this weekend while he is there or, I take off work on Tues or Wed and have my son take me. It is 2 hrs away so not a “quick trip”. #legallyblind #visidallyimpaired #stargardts

Sadly, my project self-destructed on row 65. I have to frog it back and have decided there are too many ktbl and sk2p/cdd to work with this type of yarn (cotton threads, not twisted). I have new yarn coming on Tuesday. I am sad but the aggravation should be lessened.

Shed cleanup still going. WTF of the day: an unopened beer can that had evaporated and an unopened ibuprofen bottle that exp’d in ‘23. The clear box is saved, the blue one is beyond icky and will be trashed. Hoping to finish this next weekend.

Worked on cleaning the shed more. Today’s “why TF are we keeping this?”: dryer vent hose that was last used in 2020. I also have 3 weed eaters (2 in shed, 1 on carport) that I don’t know if work. STBX is supposed to come by “soon” and get more stuff out. I want a weed eater of my own choosing

New project. #knit #knitting #shawl #fiberartist

Ooh #Cheza is smart! I moved into a bedroom with windows during the winter so she is only just now starting to exp open windows. In front of the bedroom window, I moved a flat-top jewelry box that they can lay on. A few weeks ago, she went to jump to the bathroom window not knowing it was closed…
