Today's plans:
* Deadliest Catch binge
* crochet my next doll (nearly done the second leg!)
* hosting a munch (vanilla dinner for BDSM folks) - I normally don't host but the regular host couldn't make it and asked me to step in
Considering maybe some painting, as my shoulder can't crochet all day much as I'd wish to!
Hoping that the refurb chromebook @kirrix bought gets here soon so we can go on little creative dates to coffee shops. (I wonder how hard it'd be to put linux on that...)
Writing for him, painting for me.
There's a really neat non-profit, volunteer-run cafe just down the street (that will be great to bike to once I get my bike!). If we're still living here once he starts working I think I might volunteer there once a week.
Plans on this rainy day include curly hair wash day (iykyk) and painting. Maybe some more crochet in the evening after family zoom dinner.
Debating between watching the two towers or Ghibli movies (Kiki, howl and Totoro) while I paint. Either way way we are leaning into the whimsy today.
A lazy Sunday is on the agenda today.
Will be tracing out patterns for the costume commission I got. Possibly cutting some or all of the muslin for the toile. (back pain depending)
Set some sourdough bagel dough proofing last but idk if the starter was active enough. It's been cold.
Gonna start my junk journal while we watch the f1 race later in the afternoon.
I keep thinking that I would like to get into junk journalling. But all the inspo I see online comes from ppl who go out and do so much more than I do.
Then yesterday I ran across an account on my art insta that was like "your life is worth documenting" and that really struck me. So maybe, for my 42nd year around the sun... as the answer to life, the universe and everything... I'll do it.
Went to the #UrbanSketch Vancouver meetup today.
Super pleased with how my page came out. Slowly I find my style...
Today f1 is streaming a full testing day. I am rather excited!
It won't be like super exciting, but it'll be great to have on in the background while we do other stuff around the house today. And I really enjoy the commentators. They're funny and they explain things well, always taking into account some ppl might be new to the sport.
I had such a not-restful sleep. Brain was just super wakeful thinking about so much stuff.
The next few days are very busy but the latter half of the month is less jam packed. Still stuff going on but less back to back which is good.
Today's plans are baking and video games with a side of house cleaning to get ready for cake decorating day tomorrow.
Oyakodon is one of my favourite meals to prep. I love all the little pans, and the way it's so organized. Everything about it fills me with joy.
My hope for the afternoon is painting. It's been WAY too long since I've pushed a brush around.
I also wanna trim some sketch pad pages down to 2"x3" pieces for a SekritArtThing.
Really, what I'm saying, is that I'd rather like to be offline most of the day.
