I crochet things. Books are my social life. Sometimes funny, usually awkward.

My oldest picked out our shower curtain. Kids can make great choices! 🥰

Weirdly enough, I think this works. No one is more insecure than a new ICE agent. They want to be the blonde guy in DHS’s AI Nazi posting so badly. Instead, they’ll be guarding indistinguishable suburban warehouse #16361 while inflated frogs and dinosaurs thrust in their face all day every day.

Great pick! And I also love her shower curtain! We’re practically twins. 😉

I’m at about 20% & loving it! And I couldn’t wait to make the square for it so I whipped that up this morning. Wish I had yarn that matched her sweater a little better but I still love how it turned out.

As soon as I finish reading Play Nice, I’m immediately starting this! #booksky

My new book, Dealing With A Desperate Demon, is out today! Cheery curvy bookseller, grumpy curvy demon, dating lessons, a beauty and the beast style curse, lots of horniness. Perfect to curl up to for spooky season! You can grab it these places!

Was inspired by a TikTok I saw yesterday and I put this together last night. I already have so many ideas floating around in my head. Just need to find some cool frames. #crochet

Braided silver frame. yellow and white yarn to create a background and 3D flowers that look like they’re coming out of the frame.

So this is my personality now. 🤷‍♀️😆🖤 #booksky

Maybe I didn’t miss it then. I don’t know. August was so long ago. 😜🤣 Either way, I had it my head I missed it and I felt awful about that. I’m so sorry you had Covid at the time.

Book blanket update! It’s getting big. Depending on how many books I read in the next few months it could end up being ridiculously big. 😆 #booksky

@jamadoria.bsky.social did I miss your birthday!? I’m so sorry. No excuses other than I’m an airhead and stressed out. I hope you had a good birthday. ❤️

September Books. #booksky

I got to meet Brynne Weaver & Meghan Quinn tonight! And I got to have a mini nerd out moment about Alien with Brynne. It was a good night. 🖤

Made T a new blanket. His old one wasn’t some of my best work & ends were starting to pop out. Anyway…he picked the colors and is currently curled up in bed with it. 🥰 #crochet

I was finally able to get my Covid vaccine!! Still can’t get one for the kids but hoping that will change soon. 🤞🏻

I was so happy I got the application in early enough bc there were only 14 slots available. Sometimes it pays off to be on top of things, I need to remember that. 😉

Jamie @jamiesrule.bsky.social · 12d

Right! I was stoked it was one of the activities listed for the fall session. He’s been talking about fencing off and on since last year so he’s really looking forward to it.

Jamie @jamiesrule.bsky.social · 12d

I was able to get the kids in some after school activities for the fall…

T will be doing Scouting Adventures and L will be learning how to fence.

I saw candy corn flavored creamer at the store and I almost threw up in my mouth. 🤢🤣

Happy birthday @raeraeg.bsky.social! 🥰

Jamie @jamiesrule.bsky.social · 16d

Yes, I’ve been curious what time zone we’re working with? And what day is it!? I’m seeing any time between the 23rd & 25th.

I’ve been pretty good about attaching squares before too many pile up. Right now I think I only need to attach 3-4 squares. It’s a decent size blanket already. Depending on how many books I read in the next few months it could end up being ridiculously big. 😆

I appreciate the lady leaving laminated notes all over her house to help anyone left behind. So thoughtful! 😆

100th book of the year! @tkingfisher.com can do no wrong in my eyes. Loved this Snow White retelling with its own unique vibe. Plus there’s a talking cat & I love talking animals in books. #booksky
