Remember my not-so-favorite coworker? She's back on her bullsh*t 🤮 I don't even want to repeat all the things she managed to say in the span of not even 2min, but now I now she's also very transphobic 🤮🤮🤮 I'm sad that I'm not even surprised anymore.

My colleague started to get way too comfy ranting about weird (borderline-)conspiracy (mostly) ableist stuff to me. I don't wanna give off the vibes that I'm into sh*t like that. I told her again and again that we'll have to disagree and that I don't want to have these kinds of discussions. (1/?)

In 7 days I’ll already be halfway to the mountains 🏔️💚
Here are some photos of the sane mountain area that I took when I was about 8-10 years old:

I hate hate hate that feeling of not belonging.
(to this one defined group in this case)
I never was a real part of it.
And I never will be.
I knew that. The others knew. They let me know and feel it.
No matter how much I did. No matter how much they 'tolerated' me. I never belonged.
And it hurts.

I feel like I’m only whining and complaining lately 😖
But work has been a shitshow, every weekend has been busy, the heatwave(s) have been horrible and I have way too many doctors appointments for my taste 😫😫😫
14 days until my vacation 😭

I got a tooth extracted today and now everything hurts 😭
It’s my first “day off” (got a day of sick leave) for a while. All my weekends recently were packed. And that’s how I’m spending it 😭😭😭

I just broke my tooth by eating a french fry 😭
Luckily I already have a dentist appointment for Thursday. The doctor also promised me to get me one of those teeth grinding guards and a referral for physical therapy. I just hope the tooth holds on for a few more days 😭

For a while I've been trying to leave more comments, across all my social media platforms, under videos of people I don't know (yet), under posts I would have maybe only quietly liked before. I really want to work on being more part of some kind of community.

Being back at work just leaves me with no energy for anything 😭
I once loved my job. I technically still do.
Does it make sense to love my profession but not my actual job? In my head it makes sense but people often don't seem to understand.
And I know, I'm lucky to have a job.

Had mixed results with the fabric dye experiments 🙃
The 50/50% cotton-acrylic knit (dyed it with regular dye first) turned out nice. The seams on the hat and shirts are okay, just a bit lighter than I had hoped. Another shirt was a fail, the fabric took neither the regular nor the synthetic dye.

Today is the last day of my #CraftyCation (no, I'm not ready to go back to the real world 😭) and so I did as many things as I could to really make the most of it.
Among other things I made one of those mesh-document-pouch-notebook-cover-thingies 🙃

Today I’m finally doing the thing I couldn’t cause of the heat - dying some clothes of the stove 🔥
I’m starting with dark green and I plan on dying at least a knit poncho (already dyed the cotton parts), a hat (only the synthetic seams), and maybe 2 shirts (also the seams) #CraftyCation

That's my new dress worn 💚🦇🖤✨💜🦌🩶🐍
(despite the temperatures I had to do some layering, luckily the mesh top is very airy)
So that's officially the first finished piece of the #CraftyCation project. I'll do my best to take more pictures and finish some more stuff before my time-off ends.

I finished the dress yesterday evening (after I ran out of bias tape and had to get more 🫠)
The fabrics are mostly scraps from my stash, some printed on or dyed, and a lot of patches I collected over the time. The pattern is taken from a dress I bought. It's big, fluffy, and a bit weird 💚🦇🖤✨💜🦌🩶🐍

This is my frog cake 🐸🎂 It’s a no-bake cheesecake with canned mandarins, topped with a layer of glaze and fondant. I sadly didn’t take any pictures before it was cut 😭
