I can’t believe how fast this country is coming undone. Why is vaccinating children and protecting the public a political issue? Why is protecting the environment controversial? Why are we letting children be shot and killed in school? I don’t see a way back from this. #makeitmakesense #bluesky

I am really questioning my ability to read. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky

Somehow, I actually did this correctly. One day it will turn into a cardigan. #knitsky #knitting

This almost broke me last night. I spent hours trying to figure out why the pattern wasn’t working. I attached the ends together the wrong way. It was 1 am when I figured it out. I just went to bed. I think I’m on the right track now. Hopefully , i can attach the body tomorrow. #wip #showmeyourknits

Today, my husband put this cabinet together. There’s a bin for the mail and a place to throw the keys. I also organized the entry way and our coat closet. My goal is to purge the things we don’t use. These are the next 3 spots I need to purge and organize. #adhd #adhdorganization

Switched projects. This is the Frame Your Face Cowl by Andrea Mowry. It’s going pretty quickly. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky

*Steak* dinner. Lion’s mane mushroom steaks. It was good, but I think I could do better. #homecook

I finished one section. I started the second. It was my success for the day. I failed the dysrhythmia test I need to pass for the job I want. I can’t seem to get it. 😔 I feel defeated. #knitting #nurselife

I switched projects. This Urchin by Truly Myrtle. It’s not making me want to return my college degree. 🧶 #knitsky #knitting

Ripped back to the beginning of the raglan increases. This is going into my knitting bag for a while. I’m going to work on something else. We are not friends right now. #knitsky #knitting 🧶

The Chronicles of The Artemisia Pullover. I got to where I could split for sleeves. Then pulled a good amount of the stitches off the needles. Finally got them back onto the needles. #knitsky #knittingwoes 🧶

Botanical gardens part two.

We ran away from home this weekend. We went to University of Michigan botanical gardens. It wasn’t our smartest plan with the heat. It was beautiful. #daytrip #botanticalgardens #flowers

What do I do on my days off? Well, tear my entire room apart and put it back together. It’s not done. It’s getting closer. #home #organization

Ignore the mess. I’m in the middle of purging things from my room. Bandit is 100% a Velcro dog. They acted like they were dying in their crates. I had to let them sleep with me. 😉 #dogs #adoptdontshop

I organized my pantry closet yesterday. I don’t have a fancy person walk in closet. I wanted to organize it a little better. I still have several different areas to clean and organize. My room is next. First two are the before. The last is the after. #thisis40 #cleaning

My husband went away for the next 10 days. I made some simple meals today. #homecook #vegetarian

Dutch baby pancake. Things went wrong. It still tasted good. This is what I get for cooking with a migraine. #homecook #cooking
