Another chipboard drawing :)
Saw the herd on my short hike this week, finally got some decent photos of them instead of blurry distance shots :)
incredible snow today, had a little fun while shoveling.
I called my rep and it was nerve-wracking as someone who struggles with anxiety on phone calls but it's okay, you can do it too.
5calls.org can assist you in locating your representatives, their contact info, and trying to word your call.
It may feel useless, but I encourage you to do it.
some decent shots from a while back

Photos from my 8 mile hike yesterday :) (1/3)
put off embroidering the hood until I have 2 weeks before the ren faire... now there's one week left and I'm only just getting started π oops
and even more (the katydid was a real neat one to see!)
More bug photos from today's lovely weather :]
Took a lot of bug photos today while out on a walk/testing a cpl lens on my camera (continued effort to try and solve glare/haze issues without replacing my 15 yr old camera... cause a $1500+ expense isn't in the budget)
workin' on some wallet tooling patterns to replace the crappy 10 year old wallet of mine that's falling apart. Gonna do some tests this weekend with the tools I have and see how feasible the detail is.
Been wanting to take this picture since I got this tattoo! Finally came across one of our annual cicadas who was exceptionally chill.

We'll find her a good home π«‘β₯ We're thankfully in an ok position to care for her until we can find her a home or get her into the AHS. It's frustrating to have a street cat in the house (sequestered to the bathroom indefinitely) without shots while we have other pets, but just way the cards fell π€·ββοΈ
we've been contacting rescues and shelters (and went to animal control but no space for her bc she's not 'sick or injured'). One of the rescues said it's kitten season so they're all swamped ;( I know if she has an owner her odds are better if we can get her to a shelter, but it's feeling unlikely.
Yep, did that day one. The only 2 things they would do for her is the chip reading, and prescribing us flea/tick/parasite meds because we have other pets and made a fuss. She is unfortunately chipless and none of our searching + putting up notices has netted any results yet :(
it's rare we come across a friendly stray. she's really skinny with some scrapes and cuts so we didn't think she was doing great out there. she's stoked to be in a house again with her own fuzzy blankets and a litter box, and lots of affection + cuddlesπ₯Ί she was less stoked about the flea bath lol
we're caring for her while we try to find the owner/a new home, the vet won't let us make an appt until 5-10 days pass looking for the owner + we say we'll keep her. Which sucks, bc we can't check to see if she has any underlying conditions or if she's spayed, or get her shots asap for our safety.
Found a sweet little stray (definitely used to be a pet :-( )β₯
deeply charmed by the disgruntled looking hatchling β₯
Oreo cookie's n cream cake for a friend's birthday today! :-)
I also tried to make oreos from scratch, but it turns out dutch processed cocoa powder just kind of tastes.. burnt π it's just a very dark bitter chocolate so... lesson learned! Need to use a much lower cocoa% next time i try. I'm bringing them with but they're not on the cake lol
