Once upon a time, not that long ago, this was my Joann’s. ☹️ The building started life as an Ethan Allen store, so I guess this is just a return to its roots.
“What do you mean, ‘I’m co-dependent’?” In related news, Ozzie will be starting doggie Prozac as soon as I can get the prescription filled.
Having to be off my feet for weeks and weeks means no poking around thrift shops. I miss it. ☹️ So I started poking around ThredUp, and now I have this new-to-me tote that is perfect for holding my current crochet project(s).
Anyone have any poetry recommendations for Nick?
Nick, the Melanated Magician (they/them)@melanatedmagus.blacksky.app · 5d agoI've started incorporating reading poetry into my wake up routine, but I'm woefully underread on the stuff. Ya'll got some recommendations for poetry collections (single author or multiple authors) that I should tuck into? I'm very much open to any and everything; just hit me with your favorites.
Completed 1/3 of a blanket before realizing I didn't like the pattern. Spent this morning frogging the whole thing. Starting again with a different pattern. Please let me like this one.
Spent my morning with these darlings. Say hello to Callie and Jasmine, adoptable sisters @youngatheartpets.bsky.social in Woodstock, IL. adoptaseniorpet.com/adopt/availa...
Fiction is alpha by author, series in order. Nonfiction is by topic and then by height. Mountainous TBR on my bedside table: stacked so it won’t fall over and kill me in my sleep.
Immigrant Punk@porcupunk.eurosky.social · last wk.Enough of the horrors and doom scrolling. Let's talk about something fun. How do you arrange your books?

Tom & Lorenzo@tomandlorenzo.bsky.social · last wk.People on Bluesky sigh and talk about The Discourse as if it were something required of them instead of something they opt to partake in, day in and day out. You really don't have to. Post about your favorite cheese
Either a side (pasta salad) or dessert (oatmeal chocolate chip cookies). I’m in Illinois.
Sarah M@lore.house · 2w agoEverybody loves food and food topics and I want to know. When you are going to a potluck or bringing food to an event, what is your number-1, go-to dish? Are you a person who brings a main? A side? A 2-liter soda? A dessert? Also, where in the world do you live?
If we abolish ICE, will that put an end to these GovX-dot-com commercials?
The face of a dog who finally got a real walk. I haven’t been able to walk Ozzie for the last two weeks because of my knee injury (and I won’t be able to for at least another month), but my neighbor has volunteered to walk Ozzie every afternoon that she’s available, starting today. Yay for Ozzie!
And the miracles continue! Ozzie’s food was just delivered.
For the first time since February, Ozzie’s ears are clear of infection! 🎉🎉🎉WOO HOO! 🎉🎉🎉 We celebrated with French fries on the way home.

THIS. I have, on occasion, had a cheeseburger or a chicken sandwich for breakfast, not to mention leftover pizza, because that’s what appealed at the time.
ᴛʜᴇᴇ ᴅᴏʟʟ 🎀@jessijeannie.blacksky.app · 2w agoI’ve never subscribed to the idea that breakfast has to be eggs, bacon, or pancakes. if your first meal of the day is gumbo or leftover ribs, I genuinely don’t see the problem. normalize eating what YOU want.

Spent my afternoon trying to track down Ozzie's prescription food and allergy medication, because I should have had them by now. Online pharmacy insists they've shipped and that UPS has the packages. UPS says they've never seen them. I believe UPS. (1/3)
