It’s been a while since I posted a photo of me and I felt good yesterday so here you go 🌵 ✨
Inspired by @icysedgwick.bsky.social I got “Notes on the Folklore of the Northern Counties of England and The Borders” by William Henderson (second edition) I have waited 2 weeks for it to arrive at my local library from the Woodhorn archives.
Another cross stitch I did last week but hadn’t got decent lighting to get a good photo. Or I just kept forgetting.
It’s my auntie’s 60th birthday at the end of the month. We both like Doctor Who and making stuff.
A postbox near the school I work at has been updated with a yarn topper! (Happens every now and again), this is the last week of school before we break up for the summer.
Mama Candy has been relieved on Mama duties and is now happily adopted at her new forever home! She’s been renamed ✨Luna✨ and I am so happy for her. She’s her new owners first cat and what a special cat she is.
Sorry I’ve been very quiet online, sans retweeting some very funny comic strips from time to time, I’m doing okay and just working on myself and other interests and enjoying my time away from the comic still. But here is another tarot wrap I finished the big part of the embroidery of today.
Today was my colleague’s Memorial Day / celebration (who passed away suddenly at school earlier this year) and we sang a song the kids helped create and unveiled a bench. We all joked that despite being the warmest week of the year so far, Rob made it rain because he never liked a fuss.
In my little “herb garden” outside our classroom on the school yard I discovered an oak sapling growing amongst the chive. One of the kids must have planted an acorn there in the autumn (we have an oak on our field) so long story short it’s riding on the bus with me.
Working on a box atm, I wanted to paint the hair purple but I will associate it too much with a certain arsehat. So maybe a sky blue. Also I got a pretty bowl yesterday.
It feels that wherever I go locally, a gaggle of Jackdaws are never far behind, so I decided to paint one and he turned out way better than he had any right to do so.
I was also asked to recreate a previous one I did of my colleague’s daughter’s kitten who passed away. They were very happy with it.
