@Totalanimefan: Yes, it is an absolutely awesome way to reuse or upcycle old clothing, etc. I started a rug using old dish towels but haven't been brave enough to try sewing it on the machine ... or by hand ... yet. XD Thanks for the compliments <3

Yes, I like HIIT workouts too, usually (probably also from doing martial arts for several years and being generally active 99% of my life) but I'm feeling really out of shape right now and am definitely feeling the need to be "gentle" getting back in to a healthier place. I'll get there :3

@Totalanimefan: LOL... no ruckus yet... hubby is still working and he's on a video call meeting atm. Later, however... XD

@MoodyB: it's art. Art is always a work in progress! I'm glad you're enjoying the new style though!


@Totalanimefan: lol. This working at home stuff is interesting some times isn't it?
LOVE the garlic ramen, anti-valentine's day, theme! That's hilarious! XD we haven't talked about Valentine's day yet. We'll probably go out - just not sure where yet

And good morning to everyone!
What is going on for and with you today? Do you have any plans?

I am going to take advantage of the lovely cool but sunny weather here and clean up my garden and yard a bit. I'm not really planning on doing much planting today, other than maybe some herbs, but in the process of trying to get things planted ahead of the really cold weather and prepare the yard/garden, etc., I seem to have accumulated various piles of miscellaneous stuff... old starter pots that are in a heap, bits of chickenwire fencing that I had around something and don't need right now, a palette that I need to figure out what to do with/how to use... stuff like that. So today is a "clean up the yard" day. It'll give me a chance to prepare other areas of ground to plant other things too, which I need, and ... it'll be good. Messy, yes. Difficult, maybe. But a necessary next step in this process. Anyone want to come help? XD

......... but first, coffee :3

@Purpsy: Oh yeah! Once upon a time, they did have a lot of anime on there, didn't they?

@Purpsy: eh... maybe I'm misremembering. It doesn't seem likely that they would have had actual shows on there, does it. I'm probably thinking of some other site or something. :3

@Purpsy: Yeah.... I think I was thinking of something else from 'back in the day' (lol) like crunchyroll or something.

@Purpsy: Yeah, right? I don't want to think about it tbh because it makes me feel old!! XD

@Wildfire: I really love how the big one turned out. Your dogs seem to love it too. I bet it feels nice on their elbows C:
It's cool to see how you transformed those no-sew kit blankets into a run. :3 That's awesome.
I never thought to buy those kits and just use for something else. =o

good Morning.
I finally finished my book series, however, there are 2 books left that can wait since they're off-shoot stories.
