I've been feeling really frozen the last few weeks. Just, kinda immobilized with indecision. I have a reasonable amount of career-related projects and general life maintenance stuff that would be do-able if I were... managing my time better(?) but instead I'm giving each of them about 10% of my attention and then avoiding the...

My dad told me that as you get older, time starts going by faster, and I thought that was stupid because time goes exactly as fast as it does, but now it is March 2024 and it honestly kind of scares me how fast the months and years are flying right by while I'm standing here like John Travolta in a '90s gang boss mansion* loo...

These are photos from last month, though, they have extremely little to do with what I did today, except that both involve sewing.

My friend took me to a block printing workshop and I remained extremely on-brand by producing a repeating beet print on fabric.

For the last ten years, I've been saving our worn out clothing in a basket under my home studio desk. Tig likes to shove her little paws in it up to her armpits and methodically pull out the top layer of clothes to make herself a little nest, exactly where my feet should be, and then nestle herself in like Smaug on his hoard ...
