A baba yaga in training. A baby yaga, if you will. Diagnosed with a panic disorder, but in the way that makes me really good in an emergency. Always understood the world to be a doggy dog world.

Judge me…it’s sadly soooo accurate #PantonexAstrology #Pantone #Astrology

My Pantone birth chart where u have a cap sun (pine green), Taurus moon (olive velvet), Leo rising (marigold), and sag Venus (berry pink). I am so smart and solid when it comes to myself and inner life, people think I’m much nicer on first impression than I actually am, and I am a sucker for love lol

#crochet #Wip gotta weave in now which is big sad

Daisy chain in a 4x13 rectangle. I am making a better version of the black top I made previously. The changes are this will have an extra row for coverage of my torso and I’m going to change the where I attach the seals. The colors are pastel rainbow 🌈

Ugh I tried to cancel the last one. I forgot the alt text 🙂‍↕️ take two Do you guys like my puzzle board? It (used to) spins and the drawers slide in.

A Kieth haring puzzle spread out across one big board and four smaller boards. The pieces are roughly sorted by color and there are a LOT of whites. On the white background there are recreations of his famous tags (are they considered tags?) like the ufo, the dog barking, the people doing backbends, and more!

Sending stickers and tonies to my nieces 🥰 #SnailMail #Stickers #Tonies #AnalogLove

A cardboard box filled with four Toni’s (the pj masks and Blaze) that we actually got duplicates of for Christmas. I also threw in stickers of a pink hued tiger, a black outlined leopard, and oyster mushrooms, and a morel mushroom.

Drawing is HARD but I PERSIST

Three iterations of varying detail of a cat smoking a cigarette. The bottom one is just the outline of the cat body and cig that’s not even finished. The top left is a little more done with some whiskers and the cig obviously. Top right is the most complete picture of the cat smoking a cigarette.

The inspiration. It’s an timey Portuguese poster of a cat smoking cigarette. The background is red

I styled myself better 😁

Me in a black daisy chain top that I made, overtop a gray almost like crushed velvet top but it’s soft and black skinny jeans. I have a big grin and am giving a peace sign.

Same pic but a better view of the top. My eyes are closed. If you want to creep on my bathroom counter is birth control next to another phone. I have my Paxil and glasses on the right side of the counter. Nearest to the mirror is a wet hair brush, leave in hair conditioner (small), a toothbrush, and some sunscreen.

Next one will be 🌈 gayer 💖

A crochet daisy chain in a pastel rainbow (light blue, mustard yellow, red orange, pastel green, sky blue, pink red, and a dark-light purple). I do wish the light green was a darker green.

BbYaga Maria@b-b-yaga· Jun 29

Okay weaving in and “blocking” worked wonders. Blocking is in quotes because I just washed and shaped, but didn’t pin anything. Also, weaving in seems magical and I’m not sure my ends are gonna stay, but I followed directions!

Side view of me modeling a black crochet top over a bright orange bralette. I like the shape and length, but I do think I will add like four hanging daisy chains on the bottom, but I’d need to buy more black yarn.

Front view! I have crocheted a black daisy chain cover top. I’m so glad I made a practice version in black because I am so much more consistent now.

My dog doesn’t feel like she wants to be part of my family anymore. 😭 like girl, come inside I love you. #poodle

Lake pics

A zoomed out pic of a lake. On the left is a walking bath. The sky has some nice clouds.

In the pollen covered lake, there’s a log on semi submerged, and on the right side there is a tiny turtle sunning themselves.

FRIDAY VIBES

BbYaga Maria@b-b-yaga· Jun 24

It’s all happening!! #crochet #beginnercrochet #crafts

A crochet top made of daisys in a black cotton. There are fly away ends j need to weave in and the flowers are curling because I haven’t blocked it yet!

BbYaga Maria@b-b-yaga· Jun 24

I’m paying a monthly due and never have been to any sort of community meeting because the closed chapter is HOURS away. But I’m taking credit as part of these wins!! (It gives me hope and makes me happy if you’re curious)

Showed my kid the TMNT I grew up with and he just went, “oh” 😭

I, for one, love voting so much that I worked the polls in the 2020 election. i tried to sign up for other ones, but I moved to a place with a ton of old people and they are PLUGGED IN when there isn’t a a pandemic

Me in a D-65 mask and an ill fitting surgical mask. I am wearing big glasses and a red flannel. I was working the Hoke County election in North Carolina. I think everyone should do this once. And I got paid like $17/hour. It was great! I was taking ballots from people voting in their car to feed them into the machines.

I have sooo many good stories bc the average voter is wild.

BbYaga Maria@b-b-yaga· Jun 17

Okay so I cut out more flowers to the remove the twist and the joins are just harder to mess up now. I am trusting the process! #TrustTheProcess #Crochet #BigBeginner

A chain of crocheted daisy’s in black. So far I’ve had to cut out four flowers for bad joins. I also noticed many inconsistencies, but I’m going to finish and hopefully the overall project looks decent. I’m also wondering if I should block it before making the shirt an actual tube.

BbYaga Maria@b-b-yaga· Jun 15

Ooops. I’m gonna have to cut out a flower due to a bad join 😭 this is the second one I’ve noticed that I joined incorrectly and already wove in the ends lol. Lesson learned and again I am happy this is the one I’m doing “as practice” but hope to still wear

The second from the top on the right side is joined incorrectly. I already wove in the ends so I think I just have to cut it out and make a new flower to put there. BUT I AM SO HAPPY I CAN JUST CUT IT OUT AND DO-OVER.

Tis the summer szn. #HappySummer

The desuyano restocked the chinga la migra sticker so I put it on my water bottle under a woman looking out the window. The chinga la migra sticker has like a window-y look to me.

How locals in your area are picking up trash

(Aerial view of my haul from walking around my neighborhood picking up trash. It’s mostly snacks and some firework stuff. I have on a green Fanny pack and you can see my tattoo)

BbYaga Maria@b-b-yaga· Jun 12

Just reset up my desk bc work sent a new laptop. There is a window and plants to my left. And behind me? A fucking mess lol

A desk with two screens and a laptop. On the wall above there is art from Sister Corita Kent. Horchata latte from the desayuno.

#crochet #wip I’ve always wanted a crochet top so I’m going to make a practice version in black to hide the learning curve and then a colorful version

BbYaga Maria@b-b-yaga· Jun 10

Apparently I think it’s funny when I am having a bad time #gpoy

Me grinning with a mini front tooth. It’s ground down for a permanent cap. I broke my tooth originally jet skiing and face planting into the handle bars when I was 8ish. Then I fainted and snapped it in half and that sucked way worse bc actually busted my lip.

Me making pasta. I have a haunted look on my face bc I fucking don’t even like pasta. I learned to make it bc I was thinking that if I want to like pasta, I’ll do it right. And I was good at it, but I kind of hate rolling it out bc it gets dry.

I USED TO BE a good cook, but I’m really out of practice. Like honestly I’m embarrassing now. But with practice I can live like I used to.

A picture of me having an allergic reaction (?). I never when to the doctor for it but I never liked mangos and this is the sign I took that maybe I shouldn’t eat them anymore. Maybe the habenero mango salsa isn’t spicy from the habenero

Good morning ❤️ I’m gonna go pick up my son and I saw this cool turtle #turtle #paintedturtle #maryland

Side view of a painted turtle. I would say he was probably the size of a standard man’s hand.

Aerial view of the painted turtle. I’m really taken with the neon yellow on his cheeks. Or hers. Sexing turtles is difficult I think and I didn’t touch this fella.

BbYaga Maria@b-b-yaga· Jun 6

I also did more crafts tonight. #Crafts #PreservedMoss #Cardboard #Canvas #HotGlue

Two preserved moss crafts to be hung on the walls. They are circular canvases with preserved moss covering.

It’s sometimes called old fashioned or soft peppermint sticks. Here’s what the dessert looks like, sorry if someone already posted a pic

A picture of the Baltimore classic lemon peppermint stick. Its lemons solved in half across the widest part (so the lemon half is tall instead of wide). There’s a thick, short peppermint stick that is chalkier than a candy cane. 10/10 summer dessert.

I was reminded of this travesty at Apple Music.

Screenshot of a playlist on Apple Music titled Salt-N-Pepa Essentials and it only contains two songs - Whatta Man and Shake Your Thang.

Clearly we are missing soooo many bangers like None of Yo Business, Shoop, Push It, and the first song I Remember by them Let’s Talk Avout Sex.

BbYaga Maria@b-b-yaga· Jun 2

Oh what do I do when I’m there

A very old sprouted potato that I left on the porch

BbYaga Maria@b-b-yaga· Jun 1

I’m just practicing these flowers while I wait for some better yarn to get delivered that I’m gonna make into like a layering daisy top. Look how far I’ve come! #crochet

A six petal daisy made from yellow yarn. There is an ergonomic size 4 crochet hook attached bc I need to watch the video on finishing off

BbYaga Maria@b-b-yaga· Jun 1

Got it back! I bought this wallet in hopes that the bright colors would help me not lose it #INeedAWalletChain

A neon gradien wallet that goes green to yellow to pink and is interspersed with black diamonds. It’s also VELCRO so very mature.

BbYaga Maria@b-b-yaga· May 31

Done! I started to outline in the gold that her eyes are and it wasn’t looking good so I’m gonna say I am happy here 💛 🐍 #embroidery #craftsky #Medusa #gpoy
