If only my life was as simple as that of my chickens... Mental health chaser, ally. I make knots in yarn and occasionally put words on (digital) paper. Surviving on memes, coffee, and swears. My kids are making me broke one activity at a time. She/her

Husband bought 2 ridiculously large stock pots, both were needed*. There's nowhere to logically store them and it's pissing me off. I say as much and he hears "excuses". How's your Monday starting? * I asked for a deep stock pot to do boiled dinners. I get one that's serves half a military base

Tim Curry and Dolly Parton have taught us not only that you should be bigger, weirder, gayer, and freakier, but also that those qualities are what people will love about you. The things that make you strange and amazing are the things that will resonate with other strange and amazing people

My niece is getting married in 2 weeks. I just booked our room TODAY. (mostly) direct quote from person helping me: "Wow! I can't believe there are rooms left!" (to be fair, probably 90-95% of their guest list is local and won't need a room but still, wow)

I've set a silly goal for myself but I swear it's in the name of Doing Good. Every year for well over a decade, I've donated to @muskratjohn.bsky.social's Bike The Barns fundraiser. While the swag is Suh-weet, helping deserving folks get farm-fresh food is something important to me...
