Happy Birthday ๐
Oh that could definitely encourage naps for sure. Good luck!
Spoken in animal crossing voice: A bed desk, if it helps you create more and hurt less, is a step in the right direction. Progress is progress, pushing on is the opposite of defeat, Sparkle.

Pepper pods, seeds and a seed starter kit on the table with a cup of coffee.
My ginger boy cat on top of the vertical blinds over the back door like a crazy animal. He is proud of himself.
It feels like spring and Iโm already cramming too many activities into a single day. Attending wild birds and the chickens, starting pepper seeds, enjoying my now back to crazy normal cat, shipping Etsy order, cooking, laundry, dishes and clean out the fridge maybe, ACNH laterโฆ ๐ฎโ๐จ๐ฅฐ๐ท๐๐จ
My smart watch warning me that sound levels have reached 95 decibels.
Screenshot from my phone. A NOISE NOTIFICATIONS Yesterday Sound levels hit 95 decibels. Just 10 minutes at this level can cause temporary hearing loss. More Details
I sneeze at 95 decibels!

๐ชก ๐งต update!
These two teabag bookmarks are nearly finished. If my back can handle it I might prep fabric for a few more teabags to work on later this week. I miss making these.
My sewing corner, the machine is covered in dust cloth and thereโs a messy pile of fabric scraps on the desk. My short ironing board and a folding tray table are leaning against the closet and there are other items adding to the mess. Itโs not dirty, just messy and not ready to work.
A mushroom themed teabag bookmark I made that is ready to ship out. Itโs packaged in reusable plastic and sits on my desk with a business card and shop sticker.
A teabag bookmarks I made last year with a yellow tag with a blue teapot on it.
Today I need to make some teabag bookmarks to fulfill an order. At first I was like โจYESSSS I get to sewโจ then I was like oh no Iโm really sore from weekend activities still and Iโll have to dig through everything to find the fabrics I need first. I wish I was better at organizing. ๐ชก
Thereโs nothing more relaxing than taking care of my chickens while the neighborโs dogs try to kill each other through the fence. Like Iโm real chill and barking, it doesnโt even register as annoying, but letting dogs attack fences is not cool and I wish they would make an effort to curb that.
โฆ to help each other out in real ways. If gas is $7 a gallon whatโs the plan? When the electric bill doubles then what? Itโs scary to think about, but a lot of people will need to change the way they live to get by and it is really helpful to have friends/family that are ready. Start helping now.
Locally we are expecting more wildfires and last year there was one right behind our house. I donโt want to be not ready for that to happen again, I also donโt want to be stressed out unnecessarily. Life is getting extremely expensive, the time is nowโฆ
My amazing friend group had a โfamily meetingโ last night and I gotta say it is definitely time to talk real shit with your communities. Catch up, share your needs and your abilities. Know how to be there for each other when the tough situations really start to show up. Do not ride 2026 alone.

The weather is sooooo nice and some spring flowers are blooming and budding in the yard this week.๐ผ

Cute pastel crochet mini basket with two dim small items in it like chapstick, sewing needles, business cards. Animal crossing shovel patch.
A taller crochet basket with charging cables and hair clips. Little Blathers sewn on patch.
Freehand crochet white turnip bag I made about 5 years ago. Itโs realistic with roots and leaves
Pink and white crochet basket with Isabelle patch. It holds some of my Gameboy games.
Years ago when I was also hyper obsessed with ACNH I spent so much time designing some little desk baskets with Animal Crossing sewn on patches. Zero sales. I also made one big turnip bag (no pattern) Iโm wondering if I could revisit these ideas or if ACNH just doesnโt have a large enough fan base?
2 panel screenshot meme from my Animal Crossing island. Panel 1 my character is facing Apollo while holding a net. Apollo: โTell me, Bumblebee.โ With a sad expression Panel 2 Me: โGet off my Islandโ Apollo walks out of frame to the right with a tear on his cheek.
Bumblebee is such an asshole, but Apollo just wonโt leave so he kinda deserves it. #ACNH
I didnโt realize I made a clip last night. I was trying to get a picture of Cherry howling at the moon

Reporting in! Iโm still in love with Animal Crossing and my Special Edition Switch. You know what, someone needs to study me because this set up will literally save my mental health as we navigate ww3.

My beautiful ginger boy cat taking over the bed with his little nerf ball. Heโs looking right at me.
โจMr. Kitty updateโจ
My boy is back!! As I was getting ready for bed he found a nerf ball and immediately started bouncing off the walls and pouncing on the bed just like his silly old self. Heโs getting his happiness back and Iโm so happy. I knew he would be ok eventually. Look at him!!! ๐ฅน
Iโm holding 3 ACNH amiibo cards. All 3 are frogs.
Prince is my favorite villager so I got an amiibo before I moved over to my new Switch just in case. I would just die if I lost himโฆ anyway now I need all the frog friends!Puddles was visiting my island today and I NEED HER SO BAD! ๐ญ ๐ธ
Neighbor over the fence (an ok guy) offered his blower last weekend when the guys were trimming and cleaning the side garden and they were like thanks, but no thanks. We are trying to do the work without destroying quail nests and making a fuck tun of noise.

๐ช โจ you have one month โจ
Oh good! It never peeled off or got stuck in my hair like other tape. ๐
Oh good ya, it works really well!
I think I have the same respirator and mine broke the same way. I made a decent fix with electrical tape, but Iโll probably buy the same one again.
