Annual reminder to use your terrain and environmental conditions to your advantage. Trapezoidal fields and mud can do most of the work for you!

Now at 34%, after a round of frogging and rethinking. Family of @oldgodspod.bsky.social will see where I'm going with this.

A cross stitch project on a dark green background. The words "We are the very best " are next to a partial outline of a stag. The antlers are in red, orange, and yellow, suggesting fire.

Timeline cleanse: Fenris, Fenris's patience with his humans, and a bandana.

Let me introduce you to two of my top ten favorite Shakespeare adaptations: The Chronicles of Riddick and Iron Man 2.

I am having to make Thanksgiving entirely by myself this year and then transporting it three hours away and I'm having a minor existential crisis about it.

Still gonna have two types of cranberries.

A rare group shot, brought to you by string.

A grey tabby cat catches a shoelace in his mouth while a fluffy black cat closely observes. A one-eyed brown tabby watches in the distance from within a seasonal cardboard ghost hutch.

Loki is still wary of strangers, but has been an attentive nurse through spouse's medical issues. I am permitted to scratch the ruff. He likes murdering feathered toys and engaging in the occasional chase and wrestle with the other cats. Our fanciest boy, Commodore Fluffernickel.

A fluffy black cat lies in a box, his ruff spilling over the edge.

A fluffy black cat lies on the floor, his fur pooling out around him. His front paws peek out from under the expanse of floof.

Today is Loki's second anniversary with us and his third birthday (observed)! The tail has remained constant, while the floof has expanded.

A black cat sits on a black laptop bag. His tail is extra fluffy compared to the rest of him.

The same cat, but older. He has a very prominent ruff and is generally very fluffy overall; the tail is now proportional in its floof.

It's the second anniversary of Fenris's gotcha day! He has gone from lurking in corners to attempting to run the house (and generally failing). Cautious but curious, loving affection but uncertain it will be given, frequenter of the cat wheel while talking to himself, we love our Mr. Beefy Paws.

The same grey tabby cat, two years older and much bigger, sprawling on a couch with his fluffy belly up.

Husband keeps telling me to stop face tanking so much as I'm no longer Zagreus, but I think I'm managing ok.

Day 3 of playing Hades II. Have gotten through phase 1 of the area 4 boss (lower route). I have never objected to excessive moon goddesses and also have been vibing pretty hard with Hestia the past few years, so it's no surprise that I'm having a good time. (Har.)

The New England aster continues to contemplate world domination.

A profusion of purple flowers, with some of the stems toppled over.

I planted one little plant last spring and utterly neglected it. Huzzah for natives!

A thick clump of the aromatic asters with several flowers.

Aromatic aster is starting to bloom!

A few small purple flowers with orange centers in the midst of many more stems with unopened buds.

Just keeping on with the cross stitch, plant, and cat pics, as I have absolutely nothing else to contribute right now.

Finally have the brain and energy to get back to this. The words still need French knots but I don't have the brain and energy to learn those at the moment. This is 14%.

Lettuce will be salads, potatoes and peppers will be hash, tomatoes will be roasted and thrown into pasta and stuff, and I have no idea what I'll do with the bok choy.

Farm share day! Missed a couple of weeks of pics due to the whole covid thing. Bok choy, lettuce, tomatoes, potatoes, wee bell peppers.

I am obviously cosigned, but the upcoming Netflix series has Rufus Sewell and Olivia Colman as Mr. & Mrs. Bennet and I would watch eight hours of just that.

Also had a video visit at 10am (a mere one hour after I tested!) where I was prescribed paxlovid. Do I have paxlovid to take? Of course not, because the script was held up all day by an "insurance issue." Perhaps tomorrow.
