Also, started Jojo Moyes’ The Giver of Stars today and I’m just not into it, and it’s okay to DNF a book you’ve been meaning to read for five years. There are too many stories to get through, read what you love! #booksky

Deep into my 2 weeks of Minecraft per year. Aren’t peonies the best?! 🩷🥹 Yes, I play on peaceful and build a weird cottagecore house, why do you ask

Saw the Minecraft movie in a theatre with all teens who knew the memes and clapped for them. I also knew the memes. It was fun and I forgot there was a new Great Depression for 2 hours. 7/10, would do it again. It also reminded me that Minecraft is a cheap recession era game!

But at least I did our taxes and the government owes me money so we can just add that to the nest egg labeled “impending job loss and economic crash.” That’s something, I suppose.

It’s 4am and I’m awake, arguing in the stock subreddit over which economic signs are the actual worst and which are just moderately bad 🥴

Shoutout to the absolute legend who donated an NWT Marcella jumpsuit to my local goodwill. I am never getting this good of a thrift score again 🥲

We hung the curtains tonight, they look so good with the new paint! Now to figure out what to put on this wall 🤔

Some recent thrift finds. Not pictured: the framed screenprint of Fenway, the framed paint by numbers paintings, the many books, and the glass jars. Going to paint most of what’s in this pic! Except for the cool wooden thing, that’s going to hold matches.

About to spend the same amount I spent on conveyor belt sushi tonight on this week’s groceries. Everything in moderation?

Long day. Sunday reset was more like a deep clean… I might need to embrace minimalism

Important update: found moss growing in my window frame. Hazards of living in the PNW?

#sundayreset day! I’ll be back when I’ve cleaned my bathrooms and put away laundry and vacuumed

And just finished an #invisiblemending on a nice jumpsuit I thrifted, ready to wear it tomorrow now hopefully :) #lowbuy2025

I hated the way my feature wall looked, so I extended it out on either end with some fun angles. Now it’s more my vibe and cost nothing! This looks greener than it is: it’s SW Jadeite and the white is BM Classic Gray.

Another day, another thrifted drying rack. This one holds a massive load of laundry! I’m very privileged to have the time to hunt down things I want/need secondhand to avoid buying new in this economy, I’ll admit. If any of my friends are looking for something specific, tell me!

Dried sage smells AMAZING and I’m always reminded of this when putting it away #growyourown

submitted 62 days ago • 0 comments

Tomorrow’s agenda: see if the sage I cleared out is dried yet, make breadcrumbs from old sourdough, grocery outlet run, wash my new screw top mason jar lids, continue putting off my taxes

I also saw this on Reddit yesterday and it makes sense, so I thrifted a drying rack. Cheaper and environmentally friendly is kinda my thing rn!

This has been a great week of prepping the garden for spring and for thrift finds! Started a bunch of seeds, bought more blueberry bushes, bought a grape vine and a fig tree! Also donated to the library’s thrift store and dug up a bunch of strawberry runner plants that I repotted. Very productive!

Don’t worry, tho, I’m all in on not spending money tomorrow! Economic boycotts are a small step in showing how we can wield power. #buynothing

Tonight I bought an overpriced elite trainer Pokémon box for my son. Can adults stop buying all the Pokémon cards so the kids can have a few to trade? This is bullshit.

I’ve seen thrifting wish lists on TikTok and here’s mine: - pants in my size - picture frames that aren’t broken - one (1) bread baking book that isn’t garbage If I see one more $14 pair of pants that are older than me, I’m going to scream

Got some new-to-me clothes from thredup and why was I not doing this before? This stuff looks brand new! I know some people think their payouts suck but I would just send anything I was going to donate anyway. In fact, I’ll probably do that as I drop sizes.

I don’t need to tell y’all that things are hard right now. They are. But my little corner of this world, my neighbors, pulled together when one landed in ICU this week. A reminder that when things get bad, we have each other.

I submitted a correction in Apple Maps for the Gulf of Mexico and they thanked me for making Apple Maps better. Why did they have to make it worse though??

Inject this energy directly into my veins. Kendrick has taught us: be a hater and do it well.

It looks like Kendrick has won for now but sources tell me Drake has a devastating rebuttal planned for his performance at the Kids’ Choice Awards
