I liiiiiive
Jul. 31st, 2024 09:45 amFriday's tiredness turned into more tiredness turned into sore throat turned into me taking two days off work and lying in bed the entire time. Expired covid tests say not covid, but aside from having SOME energy and no fever, it feels like covid. I am back at work today and masking bc I still have some symptoms, but I feel like I can sit upright for several hours. WE shall see how this goes.
Put some more stitches into the cross stitch while ill, in which I have now found the bottom and right edges! Exciting stuff! I'm working on mostly full stitches and then filling in with the halves after. I'm hoping to get this corner completely filled by the next photo update (in my Instagram highlights!). Then I will work across the bottom to the other side and start going up.
Ravellenics have been a total bust (so far) thanks to illness. I did get my chicken's neck, head and beak done, and attached the comb and eyes. She's so cute I can't stand it!!!
My trip in November has been adjusted to a flight landing in Toronto at almost 10pm, but then nothing flies out to Edmonton until 6 am. That is not cool, yo. I don't know yet if I'll be allowed to leave and come back, but in the middle of the night where am I going to go? I better be allowed to bring knitting etc on the planes because that is going to be a very very very long night.
Since I was ill all last weekend and even now, i am conserving energy. Dishes have not been touched in ages. I cleaned the cat box yesterday because it had also been ages and it needed attention. I really need to vacuum at some point. I have a tiny amount of room in my budget for cheese and other groceries, but I need to take stock of what I absolutely MUST HAVE first and get only those things. I ought to meal plan bc girl (gender neutral), this budget is non-existent. Weather is looking to be WARM without being FUCK OFF hot, so especially if I can get something earlier in the day, I should be OK.
Long weekend upcoming. I have a crafty movie date on Sunday, deliberately planned for people who like to craft! We will sit in semi-darkness and less volume and have Josie and the Pussycats going while working on crafts. My friend T and I are going, and I convinced someone else to come bc she didn't want to go alone. "I'm not going bc severe introvert/social anxiety reasons" noooo you should come anyway and sit with me! We don't have to talk either, we can sit next to each other and knit in comfortable silence! "that does increase the likelihood... OK i bought a ticket"
Other weekend plans are... catch up, I guess. Housework, then crafty stuff, then keeping myself and the kittens fed, mostly. I can't think of much, because the list hasn't really changed from last time.
My time off in August was approved, yahoo!! That's largely stay-cation time, and I plan to lump my way through the whole thing! :D
