Internet!

 I got Wi-Fi to my desktop computer! Yay!

I also cleaned off my desk and found a lot of stuff, some I forgot about, and others that I had been looking for. 

I did a money spell yesterday. Money is still coming in. Which is a relief. 

I see I have to set more boundaries. I am struggling to take care of dogs that aren't mine. 

I think I figured out where my Halloween decorations are stored. At this point, I don't feel like getting them out. 

I am eager to make art. I have lots of ideas. I am feeling resentful of chores. And of people. 

I feel like the in-laws are up to something again. I am trying a different approach- now I am verbally saying, "I release these feelings so I can move on." This does not give me an instant feeling of calm. I still feel anxiety no matter how many times I try to let go of the negative influence. But I am aware of the problem, and I am taking steps to resolve it. I think that is progress even if what I am currently doing isn't working. I think starting is important. I will learn something. It's only a waste if I do nothing with the knowledge. Of course, sometimes I think I should be a bitch and say what I really think. The high road is difficult. Shadow work usually reveals more issues; as soon as one is resolved, you will find more. It is also highly frustrating to be working on myself while everyone around me seems content to be a useless slug with no intent of improving anything. 

I discovered people are 3D printing on clothes. I was like, ooooohh! And tiktok showed me more. People are 3D printing dragon scales on cloth for costumes. And liking those videos led to more 3D printing videos, until I found the woman who called herself a ho of hobbies. She said 3D printing was the hobby for your hobbies, then she showed all the things she had printed for herself like bead storage trays with lids, tiny totes, boxes customized for her projects and the storage space she has, and her embroidery floss labels. Now I have ideas for how to make my art easier. THEN I found the people who buy thrifted sweaters to reclaim the yarn. That led to people buying thrifted t-shirts to make t-shirt yarn. I also found a weaving website that sounds like Ravery, but it's weaving patterns and it does the math for you. I'm not a weaver by any means, but I do appreciate the beauty of such a system. I love that we are surrounded by AI yet we are using technology to support our creative lives. 

And I just had a de ja vu. Obviously this post is fate. I wrote it before. Now I want to try meditation before writing to see if my blog becomes more popular. 

Blessed be, my dears. Stay safe and well.

Full Moon Post

 Good afternoon, my dears. I am struggling today. I had several allergic reactions last night. The combo of lacking sleep and antihistamines has me dragging. I did a spell to remove the allergens. Enough already.  I am making lots of notes, so that when I am able to think, I will have a list of things to do. I've had several art ideas, but I lack the energy and focus to do them.  I am also deep cleaning my house. I am trying to get rid of any allergen residue.  My daughter has shown an interest in cooking. This makes my life easier. Goddess bless my child, she is a gift and I am grateful.  I have some wine. I intend to relax this evening.  My a1c has greatly improved. I feel much better about my health overall. I am trying to bolster creativity among fellow artists. I created a group text for my fiber group. So far it has been very positive.  It has rained in my part of the world every single day for weeks. My garden looks great.  I changed up cle...

Fuck Me Running

 My dears, it has been hell. On Monday, Aug. 17, I took my mother to the bank, then to pay her phone bill. That was a headache.  Monday night, I had an allergic reaction. Not only did my throat start to close, but my chest felt tight.  Around midnight, I started vomiting. I thought it was stress.  I was sick all day Tuesday. I did not get out of bed. I did not take insulin. Wednesday I was still vomiting, but the vomit smelled like sugar. My husband took me to the hospital. I stayed in ICU until late Thursday. I was having trouble swallowing. Friday, I figured out I could eat really slowly and take small bites. Not that I really ate much.  On Saturday, I forced myself to eat so I could go home.  All week, I have been struggling. I think my blood pressure is now too low, because I randomly get lightheaded. I move slowly. I am tired often.  I did make a point of cleaning off the piano, though I haven't felt like playing. I also did some gardening. I star...

The Witches & Majick Series Spring Edition Day 2

Image
  Good morning, my dears! It's Day 2 and today's block is the Churn Dash. This block originated in the early 1800's, and it is meant to look like a butter churn. I know very few people churn their own butter, so here is a picture: Milk is poured into the jug, and the wooden thing, called a dash, stirs the milk, making it separate. Churning milk is necessary for making butter, cream, buttermilk, and cheese. Because there was no refrigeration, churning would have been a near daily chore.  Like most quilt blocks, this one has many names, such as through the barn door, and monkey wrench. Being that this block on based on a 9 patch grid, it also has many variations. Here is a two tone example. And here is a small star inside the churn dash.  Supposedly, this quilt was used in the Underground Railroad as a signal to gather supplies. I have a lot of issues with quilts being used as messages in the Underground Railroad. I will be discussing this in a later post.  Majickal us...
