i fell asleep amid the flowers

Well today I am coming at you from Chase’s computer because… my laptop is dead! It was fine all last week, it was fine Friday, I unplugged it Friday night since we had storms coming through. Saturday morning it wouldn’t turn on at all. Chase tried a few things to fix it but nothing worked, so he’s got a new battery ordered to see if that’s it. I doubt that’s it, I think the thing is dead dead and I just need to get my hard drive out of it and move on.

Sucks because that means I don’t have my laptop during the day.

Recovery continues to have ups and downs. Early last week when I first cut off the pain meds I was not feeling good. I think I may have lost a stitch on Monday, I had some pain and then some spotting. But since then no more spotting at all, which before that I had a minuscule amount everyday. Wednesday through Friday I felt almost back to normal, just having a few twinges every now and then. The only movement that was still bothering me was just the last moment of standing up from sitting. We ran errands Saturday then I came home and slept all afternoon. We cleaned the house Sunday and then I rested all afternoon. I think I overdid it between the multiple errands and the cleaning – I was bending over a lot cleaning. Later yesterday and overnight I had a lot of twinges and aches.

Anyway, I did finally get to take a bath. YAY! Although it wasn’t very comfortable, boo! But it was nice anyway.

I’m planning this weekend to get back into my sewing room and get started on dragoncon stuff. I want to make sense of the troi pattern I have and maybe do a mockup.


Luna watching RPDR with me.


My aunt gave us this armchair to replace the ugly red thing in the living room. RIght now it’s in the dining room covered in a blanket to keep Luna from scratching it until we can get a cover for it. I put Mothman in it and it looks like he’s contemplating his whole life.


Look at this cute keychain I got from a blind bag. This is going on my star wars backpack.

Chase and I are doing a little getaway trip in May and we booked flights through Spirit. I know, I know. And guess what Spirit changed our flights to be useless. So we got a refund and rebooked through Southwest. Had to juggle our dates around but I think the new plan is better than the old one.

Mom found a bunch of old pics and sent them home with me weekend before last. I finally looked through them. Here’s a few good ones.


Teacups! Circa 1985? 84?

Also had a whole envelope of pics from Disney MGM Studios from our 1990? 1991? trip. I’ll have to scan them one day. There’s not a lot of family pics in it, it’s mostly just beauty shots of the park. There’s some pics from the Muppets stage show, lots of pics of the Star Tours area, Indy Stunt Show when mom was one of the volunteers.


Entertaining myself. In shiny silver ballet flats with socks.


I had the most visceral reaction to zooming in on this photo and seeing that that was the My Little Pony Perfume Palace. I immediately could SMELL IT.


This was a look. But also I feel like I would totally wear that today? I’m even wearing glasses on the reg now. Just need a perm.
