    Self checkouts, Yay or Nay?

    Honestly, they affect my anxiety. I get nervous while scanning and the constant commentary from the self-checkout telling me to scan an item or put it in the bag. It makes me feel rushed, causing me to keep looking behind me to see how many people I am holding up. I will absolutely avoid them...

    Hello. It has been a while. Things have been rough emotionally for me. A very quick rundown of some of the bad: Still have issues with my daughter. A lot of issues. Still have physical custody of Hobbit. (Not that he is an issue, obviously. It all ties in with my daughter. He can stay forever.)...

    Have you considered using fabric and Modpod? I did a small cabinet a few years back and used fabric and Modpod. The person I did it for still has it as far as I am aware. Have you looked on Spoonflower for wallpaper? (Or fabric?)

    I have never done any of these things. I never learned as a child, and, now that I am disabled, they are not things I can learn. My younger sister, however, loved to roller skate. She takes her youngest daughter skating all the time and instilled a love for it in her eldest daughter.

    It is official: I am working with the local TNR and cat rescue making memorial pottery and whisker jars. I am behind making pottery because I had the flu and am finally feeling better, but I am back to it. (Hopefully painting again soon, too!) I fired a few, including the one the president of...

    Question of the Day - Monday, February 6, 2023

    I am an odd mix of my father's side and look nothing like my mother's, while my sisters look like a mix of both sides but favoring our mother. I actually look like a mix of my father's paternal great-aunt Oona (Irish side) and his maternal aunt Viola (pronounced vi AH la, Choctaw side).

    I mentioned previously that I am donating some pottery and/or artwork to the local TNR/cat rescue for their fundraiser auction. I am now in talks with them to create whisker jars and memorial pottery (either urns or pottery with the fur burned onto it) for them to sell to help support them. I...

    For the most part, no. If the lighting is bad, I occasionally change the lighting, but I do not use filters or anything like that. I do not see the point.

    We, like a bunch of others, were hit by a snowstorm and freezing temperatures over Christmas. On Christmas Eve, I saw a tiny fuzzy kitten on my porch. He ran under my porch when he saw me. My neighbor's two youngest daughters went under and caught him. We caught his little orange brother on...

    Aw! That is so sweet! Thank you. I do practice witchcraft. He is safe and happy. I know! Three! And you are working on a new human!? Congratulations! Thank you. I considered posting my new Instagram account here but was unsure if it is permissible.
