The most difficult thing for me has been finding that I really like people, but they don't like me back. I got used to that, but I'm happier that I know why.

Same for ADHD. I'm finding nearly all the people I have a connection with are neurodiverse.

Een zandafgraving te Amsterdam. Arbeiders rusten en aan het werk in een bouwput. In het midden een werkman met een kruiwagen. Waarschijnlijk is de demping van de Elandsgracht in de Jordaan voorgesteld.

A very kind gentleman dropped in to donate a puddingstone (R) to join our own (L). They are slow-wearing conglomerates of rock, assembled to create tools like quernstones for grinding grain and named after the puddings they resemble. #puddingstone #woodbridgetidemillmuseum

Here's an illustration from the Drayton Parslow Parish Register in 1780 - a skull and bones with a floral motif. A morbid doodle or a helpful way to mark a section of burials?

I'm supposed to be making cats to sell, but I've made Pip and my daughter's cat that I want to keep. Tell me what cat I should make next. Or show me some lovely cat photos to inspire me. Please.

Tabby cat collage. Not sure I've finished this. I don't like the pale coloured cushion, but I can't find any paper I like better at the moment. Also, annoyingly, I made the red check pattern with sharpie on the gel plate and it ran when I glued the cat on with acrylic medium

There's a thing called Marching Ants, which is a nerve sensation associated with oestrogen. Maybe look that up?

I did when I was peri menopausal. Sometimes it sort of moved. Usually tummy, legs or head.
