Last night, I decided today would be market prep day. My mom gave me this skein of yarn, and when I saw it, I thought frog stress balls. I sell these for $5 and they do well. #crochet

Three frog balls (look like frog head only) made with multicolored plush yarn. Colors are highlights of blue and green with a base of white. Embroidered smiles and safety eyes. Frogs are in a tiny, corner fitting, silver, mesh shelving unit.

I’m finishing up the last of my lessons this morning and my dog decided she needed to be very close to me.

And finished!

Completely cleaned, conditioned, and water proofed sandals. Way less spotting in leather and more even coloration of leather.

Step 3: Waterproof the leather. I waterproofed on both sides of each strap and all around the welts.

Brown Sandals with the water proofing product Sno-Seal between the sandals.

Step 2: Condition the leather. Finn Comfort’s sandal straps are leather on the inside (foot touching part) too so these sandals need more conditioner.

Step 1: Cleaned the leather. Now to let the sandals dry.

Today was an excellent thrift day. No, didn’t find any board games, but I did find an extremely high end pair of sandals. Check out my new Finn Comfort Sausalito sandals. They typically retail at $310 and I paid $8. Time to clean and restore the leather. #thrifting

Here’s a game we’ve had on our shelf of opportunity for a little too long. Let’s see how First in Flight plays. #boardgames

Given the current air quality, this toy will have to take the place of a long walk. She’s slowly been figuring it out over the last hour or so. I’m happy her mind is occupied. #DogsofBlueSky

Game Faery@gamefaery· 26d

She littered the living room floor with her toys and is now sleeping on the couch with a smile on her face. #DogsofBluesky

Before my dad passed away, he made sure my mom got survivor benefits from his state pension. My mom puts the $ in a special account and only spends on family things. As an early bday present, my dad bought me some very nice sandals.

Green Shoe Box that says Finn Comfort Germany. The German phrase on the box translates as “The feel good shoe”.

Sorry, did you want me to move. I think I will just lie here for a while. #DogsofBluesky

Decided I really wanted to crochet a ponytail/messy bun hat. All I can say is I’m glad I got that out of my system. This was not enjoyable to make. There is nothing wrong with pattern or tutorial. I just found the whole process tedious. #crochet

Front of winter hat. Textured with ridges and wide brim.

Back side of winter hat with hole in crown of hat for hair to come through. Hat is blue and speckled white.

She’s hiding. You see nothing.

Today, I wasn’t going to stop at a thrift store, but my bladder had other ideas as I was driving by a thrift store. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Had to answer the call of nature and b/c I was already in the store, I had to check out the games. Both games are complete and cost me a total of $4 plus tax. #boardgames

Catan dice game and Trekking The National Parks.

My mom and her husband are coming next week. In an effort to keep certain media from contaminating well established algorithms in this household, I feel the need to engage parent lock…to protect my parent and her husband. These apps came preloaded on my new TV w/no option to delete.

Hubby and I typically don’t play a lot of roll and writes. I’m happy to report that we both enjoyed Clans of Midgard and would play again. Hubby won 92 to 86.

Game Faery@gamefaery· Jul 5

Trying out the roll and write Clans of Midgard. Let’s see how this plays. #boardgames

Play mat of territories. Wooden meeple warriors. Pads of paper to mark scores. Stacks of cards and red die.

This t-shirt yarn makes great baskets. I crocheted this basket yesterday and liked it so much, I decided to keep the basket instead of putting in my sales bag for craft markets. #crochet

It’s been a long time since we’ve had Heroes of Tenefyr on the table by @brokenmillgames.bsky.social I’ve always enjoyed this game. We’ll need to do some relearning and then we’ll defeat the Ancient of the Wood. #boardgames

Eight stacks of cards in two rows of four. Two character cards in front of each player.

When we got my dog, she was losing hair. Two different vets said it wasn’t mange or like. It’s likely b/c of stress/hormones. We give her 2mg of a melatonin ea night to stimulate hair growth. Makes her tired. Vet says we can give up to 3mg, which we’re doing tonight b/c fireworks. #dogsofbluesky

Just finished a game of Lockup by @thunderworksgames.bsky.social This is a great game. Had a lot of fun setting up turns to gain big points later. Ended up winning by 5 points. #boardgames

Game board set up as a prison. Various goon cards around board. Tiles on board to represent various prisoners.

We’re reviewing how to play Arcs. Although, relearning might be a more apt word choice. #boardgames

Arcs game board with space ships and cities on it. Personal player board with more cities waiting to be played on the board.

I went to the furniture section of the store so I could use a table to count the game bits. The sales clerk tracked me down and brought me Cards Against Humanity along with Expansions 1&2. So awesome! I ended up spending $71 total and so happy! #thrifting

Cards Against Humanity with both expansions.

Game Faery@gamefaery· Jul 1

The clerk returned with a super stuffed bag of yarn including cotton and Japanese Noro yarn. 😱 It was all for $5! (6/?) #thrifting #crochet
