"Sorry boss, I can't work today"

There are many days I feel like this, but I generally blame it on #perimenopause

My only moods: (โ€ข_โ€ข) ๐Ÿ“• <) )โ•ฏThis is my favorite book / \ ๐Ÿ“– \(โ€ข_โ€ข) ( (> No THIS is my favorite / \ ๐Ÿ“˜ (โ€ขoโ€ข)/ <) ) *screeches* / \ ๐Ÿ“š (โ€ข_โ€ข) ๐Ÿ“š ๐Ÿ“š <) )> ๐Ÿ“šI should buy more books ๐Ÿ“š / \ ๐Ÿ“š ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ’™

#KnitSky friends, do you know of any sock patterns that are stockinette on the front side and textured on the back (ribbing or otherwise)? The mullet of the #SockKnitting world, so to speak?

My friend @solace-in-stitches.bsky.social has a Tunisian Crochet pattern in the new issue of Knitty! Check it out, and give her a follow!

I feel like maybe he should have thought about this before starting a trade war? ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ To my American friends, I'm so sorry. meidasnews.com/news/trump-d...

March is 1/3 over and I just realized that I never shared my February Wrap Up from @thestorygraph.com. Some interesting reads and some favourite authors; it was a good month! I've also updated Harriet #TheBookSnake to reflect these reads #BookSky๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ’™ #KnitSky

Mark Carney wouldn't have been my first choice, but I do think he has the best chance of defeating Pierre Poilievre, which I'm afraid is more important right now.

This International Womenโ€™s Day Iโ€™d like to point out that for centuries women were mocked, berated and shamed for ending up unmarried and we managed not to start a hateful right-wing movement blaming every other group for our plight.

The feds have signed a universal contraception coverage agreement with BC. An investment of over $670 million over 4 years will provide contraception to BC residents, as well as hormone replacement therapy.

๐Ÿ“ฃ A team from Nova Scotia Health is seeking participants for a study about the advantages of receiving text messages during a medication abortion. ๐Ÿ’ญ If you've had a medication abortion, help out by giving your feedback in the form of a 1-hour interview: tinyurl.com/abortiontext

Thank you @brinedyeworks.bsky.social for such an fantastic sale - look at this green perfection! Green is my favourite colour and I fell in love with Ben Dives as soon as I saw it. Mohair and eco-sock are for a possible Love Note, and BFL fingering will be amazing for socks ๐Ÿ’š #knitting #yarn

Hi, just a reminder that when you use Libro.fm for your audiobooks, you support independent bookshops vs. large corporations that drive them out of business. We also pay taxes. And so do indie bookshops.

The problem with working 2 days in a row in the office is that on the third day I'm totally exhausted. And also my dogs are wired after 2 days of being at home alone. Since when do they eat pencils??? #DogSky

Set up my exhibit today at Museum Strathroy-Caradoc. Opening reception Friday 4:30-6:30 and exhibit runs March 1-31 (except Sundays) Thank you @ontarioarts.bsky.social for Exhibition Assistance funding โค๏ธ

I made myself a tiny cup of black coffee using @mochimochiland.bsky.social 's Koko pattern, and everyone wants a sip. Or a nibble.

Slowly distancing myself from IG and as I follow accounts here, I unfollow there. Instead of seeing more content from the accounts I DO follow (still 300+), I'm seeing more "suggestions" ๐Ÿ™„

Delete audible in favour of @libro.fm and while you're at it, get rid of goodreads and start using @thestorygraph.com You don't have to keep lining the pockets of billionaires! #BookSky๐Ÿ“š

I realized that I never posted a photo of my FO for the #SkyKAL, and sadly I only snapped a quick pic before packaging it up for shipping. Here are two versions of the Bolton Pass hat by Espace Tricot, in Knit Picks Swish DK

Meet Harriet, my 2025 Book Snake! Named after one of the MCs in Kirsten Miller's The Change, she is the more attainable option to the traditional Temperature Blanket, helping me track books instead #BookSky๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ’™ #KnitSky

I've actually had the privilege of working on events with half a dozen of the political leaders and academics on the initial signatory list. People I have the highest admiration for. This is not just any petition (because I know there are many out there to sign); if you sign one, this is a good'un.

I won't be posting much about potus and his pals (because ๐Ÿคฎ), but can someone tell me please, are we sending truckloads of drugs and undocumented folks to the US on a daily basis?

I was feeling the need for a solid comfort read today and remembered that my only unread @lauriefrankel.bsky.social novel was sitting on a shelf, waiting for the exact right time. She never disappoints, and the first 50 pages have confirmed this was the right choice ๐Ÿ’• #BookSky ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ“š #FavouriteAuthor
