Plans changed a little

anonymousknitterLeave a comment

Today’s plan was goofing off, playing and some books and stitching. Come to think of it, that’s the plan every day.

I’ve got some repairs to do. I ripped my favorite night gown the other night. I’d made it wrong. I’d forgotten to put in gussets under the arms. I also goofed up the sleeves, so repairs are in order. My other favorite nightgown just needs similar repairs, though I didn’t skip the gussets on this one.

I’m also going to be driving out to my patron’s farm. She has some more pieces and parts for me, and I’ve got a couple of projects in mind with what she has available. I’m just hoping to get through the day without needing more pain meds than usual.

The trip to the farm was unplanned, but you know, that’s okay. I have enough to do to keep me entertained. Hope your day is well. Gentle hugs, -L

20 more days

Hey there, I’m sitting and relaxing a little. I have some classical focus in my ears, and the fellers are behaving.

I’m an impatient old woman. My hunt for the best loom for my money continues. I’m currently watching a couple on an expensive website.

Then again, if I had access to my Dad’s old workshop, I could build one for free.

Damn. I know, that workshop is long gone, and I’m not going to buy hundreds of dollars in tools to make a loom.

Meanwhile, I’ve got some reading to do today, and some more reading and sorting of books. Take care, my friends, I can get that loom in about 20 days. -L

Fun day results

Hey there, just wanted to let you know how my day of fun turned out. I’m sore, and tuckered.

I started with a little gumption. I baked some bread. Oh, it was noms. Then I played a few games on my laptop, and relaxed. By the time I was ready for a book and a nap, I got a message to come on out to the farm and play.

So, after laying down for a few minutes, that’s what I did. I have a few new dusty and maybe rusted out sewing toys, and I’m exhausted. It’s time to stitch in front of a book. That’s what I’m going to do. Take care, good friends. -L

Gaslighting myself, also known as the slow screw

anonymousknitterLeave a comment

Morning, I woke up pretty disturbed this morning, and I’ve been sitting here trying to figure out what the heck is going on. You know those movies you see in your head of things that happened in the past? The ones where you see, hear, smell taste and feel every second of that past?

There are times that my brain, in self-defense, likes to sugar coat that shit. I admit, sometimes that is helpful, pull me out of the funk, and helps me turn that movie off in my head. I also find myself altering the memories sometimes. That is dangerous, and scarier than the thing that happened.

Let me explain, if I go around not believing that what I feel is authentic, I’m gaslighting myself, and ignoring my own instincts. My gut has been telling me for years that something is wrong, really wrong. I’ve been ignoring it, just to get along, and to fit in or to not rock the boat.

It takes the responsibility for my thoughts, feelings, and actions out of my hands and puts them in another’s. That’s not cool either. Crap, I’ve got work to do, and thinking to do, and I need to work through this. I am responsible for being who I am.

Meanwhile, take care my friends, -L

What does love got to do with it?

Okay, not quoting Tina Turner directly, but you know. Life happens. Today is an important day. Today, I am going to play. Yep, just play. I have no plans, no itinerary, and no freaking agenda.

I might attend an online meeting. I might paint, sketch, or sew, I might snuggle in a chair and read. The floor so to speak is open.

Life is good. And love has everything to do with it. I love to play, and that’s what I’m going to do. -L
