I'm teaching myself how to make some zines! And reaching back 30 years for tidbits of memory from my college bookmaking class. It's fun and creative.

But it also serves an important function as someone who is predominantly #housebound and #bedbound due to #MECFS and #POTS. I rely on paid and volunteers caregivers to do most of the labor in my home. And training them takes energy. So hopefully this will help, and I can update as needed.

Back in October a dear friend was all excited about a trend of folks buying #IKEA Duktig doll beds for their cats, but wasn't willing to spend the money. Which is now obviously the holiday present I've gotten for her and her two cats.

So of course I spent today #crocheting a little blanket for the bed. Out of scrap yarn. In vaguely coordinating colors and pattern to the afghan I made her a couple of years ago. Like you do.

Do you need this floof on a Monday? They often sleep near each other when it's cold. Maybe touching. But this was next level this weekend.

I'm still not turning up the heat. #Dysautononia

#BedBound problems:

Sadie cat has strong feelings that now that winter is here my lap is hers. The current position of my lap is apparently unacceptable. I just heard myself say, "It's not your job to tell me what I'm supposed to do with my body."
