I'm just another flea on Gaia's back, raising butterflies & moths. Eclectic taste & post many random thoughts. All photos are my own. I Will credit when I share other artist's work. My home is my heart, 4 young adults, 4 cats, 2 old adults & 2 dogs

Morning 🦋 Hoping to have an answer for our ailing hot water system today😬 Will definitely be costly 🫣 I'm taking solace in the beauty visiting our "weeds" 🥰 Two Eastern Rosellas visit almost daily & my wildlife camera is finally earning it's keep 🤭 This was taken 2 days ago, the 2nd bird is hidden 😍

Went to wash up for dinner. No hot water 🤦 It's things like this which throw my executive function out completely 😒 Instead of, wash up, cook, eat, I now have to, boil kettle, empty sink, have enough water for clean & rinse, try not to burn myself & cook dinner. All while already out of spoons 😵

Morning🦋 I wish I had his energy today 😂 This was our Christmas tree in 2024 and it was definitely meant to be for the cats, just as I intended 🥰 One of my favourite tip finds ever! A $35, Exercise Ball Storage Rack, rope and fabric scraps gave us the best cat tree 🤩

I'm in heaven 🥰 Misty chose me again 🤍 She's so relaxed, she's curled her paws under 😍 Just listen to that pur 🥰🥰🥰🐱🤍

My dragon is getting a new life. Except, I was half way through taking the stuffing out when my middle son said:" oh, Mum, I loved that dragon. What are you doing to it?" 🤦 Well, I made it from scratch, I can alter it so someone can finally 'use' it. Hate it when that happens though. Stops me dead 😒

The oversized hoodie is completed. I totally free-handed it & I'm so happy with the result so far. Now I have to decide the category I want to enter, as well as the name for the item. This is usually where I fail to deliver & end up kicking myself for not managing to enter at all.

There's 3 sections I could enter. 1.Exoskeleton 2.Wearable Art 3.Bowerbird I have a material idea for the exoskeleton I really want to enter the wearable art but haven't gotten past 'I want to include many ants' & I have a name & concept idea for a bowerbird. My perfectionism won't let me enter any

Story of my life; Them: why didn't you enter this craft competition? You have so much talent Me: They wanted a title & I couldn't choose which one of the 50+ I'd thought of. Also, they had too many categories & my brain made an entry for all of them but we can only enter in one...

Not overly excited to be waking up with the random back spasms which started at around lunchtime yesterday and haven't abated overnight 😒 They are seriously hampering my dedication to the current hyperfocus project 😔 I Need to finish a side project, just this once! Please 🥺

Morning🦋 As I do every day, I go to FB & collect my memories to put in an album. I came across this one & I can't believe it took me two years to Actually comprehend the vile reply my "friend" wrote to this meme😠 This is why I don't post there anymore. I'm only collecting my photos, 1 day at a time

A photo from two years ago with the two women boxers who were wrapped up in controversy from the anti trans movement.
The text under the photo, as well as the reply:
"I cannot believe they let people who are stronger and faster than other people compete in the 'Find Out Who Is The Strongest And Fastest Person' contest

Yep I'm against this. I've trained in Tai Kwondoe. Nope not good.

Pan Am 103 Bombing. Rough! I knew about that disaster two nights before it happened, the predictive nightmare I had about it, still clear as day in my memory 😔 As much as I've seen of this series is sympathetic and respectful 🫂
