We have two large storage units. They're getting expensive. I'd like to eliminate one of them from the budget as soon as possible.
The second one was rented with the intention of triangulating our move. That move was over 2 years ago.
Unit 1 is pretty full. Unit 2 has most of our book collection, some of my fabric collection, some of my toy ( Read more... )

My S.O. was in a car accident about 2 weeks ago. His car is totalled. We are dealing with the dance of the I surface companies about it.
At the end of last year, I was struggling to get my car's plates up to date. It needed more work than it was worth, so I sold it off.
So we were a 2 car household, then a one car household, which worked ok since he ( Read more... )

It's time for my annual Greed post!

I'm 49 this year, so I'm not going out of my way to celebrate in 2023 BUT next year watch out for a ridiculous blow out.

I'm helping throw my S.O. a nice birthday party this Sunday; check your emails and if you didn't get an invite, email or text me.

However, now that I've kind of gotten settled I realize that I miss the smaller gatherings where I can actually ( Read more... )

I finally got back onto Swimply. Interestingly, my favorite pools aren't available anymore. I'm given to understand that some of the anti-AirBnB stuff is splashing over onto the Pool-Rental crowd? At any rate, I am going to get to try out new pools this year.

If you want in on renting a private pool, contact me directly (or you can respond to my ( Read more... )

My S.O. is recovering well, though the abdominals will take some time to get back to normal.

The spot on his kidney is just a cyst; it's kind of like a waterballoon attached to the kidney but it isn't causing any trouble.

I already posted on Tumblr, so I'm going to try to use that to give the update here. This week my S.O. went to the hospital. Twice. He's recovering from Gallbladder surgery, and they're keeping him for 3-4 days.

I'm gearing up for Conflation this weekend. Here are my plans and wacky last minute ideas!

I'm going to knock out some more masks, but specifically in my "adult Large" size. I'm going to use my undersea print cottons, but I'm also going to make some in fancy fabrics like lace, sequins, and the like.

I'm also bringing my cards. I could use a little ( Read more... )
