  • I ate two of em by myself and I’m fairly certain the server judged me for it. No regrets tho. Picked up some new calligraphy supplies and also stopped into a stationery store and gained my first real-life guild quest… there’s an email in my inbox about joining “the guild” that the proprietor of this read more

  • Holy shit it’s a daily. We took Erica out for breakfast (on a Saturday! We never go to breakfast on Saturday, but we did today and it was fine,) and then went for a walk afterward and it was very nice! Then we visited her grandparents. All that makes a lovely day by itself either read more

  • Did some for the first time in like a month 👍👍 read more

  • Dress I bought was cheap and stinky. I hate amazon. That’s what I get for buying a funeral dress on amazon, though. First thing I bought on there in months… idk why I did it. Back to boycotting. Mike’s thing I was supposed to do calligraphy for got postponed, which is sad for him, but read more

  • Nate and I played a board game for the first time in a while after lunch. It was lovely. Staying home and having a normal day is kinda rare for us. It was such a a treat. We also played the card game fluxx. We planned meals and got groceries and invited Mike over for read more

  • We took a walk and did dinner, yadda yadda. Erica did great with her second hour of patching. Proud of her. After I put her in bed I went to do some calligraphy for a friend and had this lovely moment. BUT I’m a god so I saved most of it. Then I accidentally worked read more

  • Cutting it close today. I did some calligraphy and wrote some letters. In true crazed artist fashion I put my hand down on wet ink; I’m pretty sure you could read words off of it now even though I’ve washed my hands. I spent a good portion of time trying to digitize my crazy whiteboard read more

  • It’s been a crazy busy day! Took Erica to the library with mike, then we grabbed coffee and popped into a clothing store I love for a minute. Talked thru the afternoon. I have game time with friends tonight. I did some calligraphy during Erica’s nap but I didn’t take a pic and frankly I’m read more

  • Another nap, another nib. I think Erica is beginning to understand unwanted behavior and does it in protest. I was gonna cuddle her to sleep for this nap but she was upset at the sleep and kept slapping and scratching me, pulling my hair. She does those things out of curiosity or excitement sometimes too, read more

  • Calligraphy momentReally loving the new handle. It’s got an angle adjustment feature that might be game changing. Also, regular ink flows a thousand percent better than the gouache I mix, lol. read more

  • Nasty rainy day today. Nate let me sleep in. Erica’s 9mo regression is killing me. She’s doing wonderfully though. Getting better at occupying herself and moving away from separation anxiety. Clapping and waving all the time. Starting to get a more regular 2 nap schedule, too, so hopefully the regression will end soon. Nate has read more

  • Finished out the day by making the guest bedroom more livable and organized (can you tell we like the Ikea kallax?) and then spent the last two hours on calligraphy. I’m struggling lately with feeling as if the time I’ve put in practicing isn’t reflected in the quality of work I put out. Obviously I’ve read more

  • Feeling really grateful for my siblings support and for the support of the people close to me. When I feel unwell and need to work through my feelings I usually end up doing so by expressing myself to others. They are always so willing to hear me out and offer loving and patient feedback even read more
