Helping folks:
This family was the target of a hate crime and need a lot of help to heal and get back on their feet.
I send Quiara extra money whenever I can. She may also lose her SNAP benefits on Nov 1 which means even less money to live on when she’s already surviving on a frayed shoestring.
Jack of Oi, Shiny is struggling with a heart condition and the whole mess of the US threw his shop and primary means of income into turmoil for a while. He’s trying to get back on his feet.

1. You can always tell it’s been a hard week when I couldn’t think of a good thing. But getting to do my exercises for the first time this week was really nice!

1. TIL that chocolate is fermented. WHAT.
2. I’ve learned more about football from Chris Kluwe on Bsky than anyone else. I really like that he’s politically active, and vocally fighting back against fascism in his local community of Huntington Beach, CA. Now, he’s running for Assembly and we can support him!
Helping folks: This GFM for an old friend of jewelry artist Wings needs some traction.

How this week flew by in a week of Mondays and ended .. oh right. It’s been Very Busy and I have been Very Slow and we’ve had work going on around the exterior all week which has been pretty disruptive. It’s necessary weatherproofing but I’ll be so grateful when the last of this is done.
A friend is being moved to hospice and I’ve scheduled a visit after they’re settled in. I’m not ready to lose them. Stupid sentiment I suppose, is anybody ever? I’m so tired of this relentless grieving of one loss after another, we all deserve an extended period of joy. Well, not the fascists. They can lose all their hate-fueled joy, that’d be ok.
Wins: I sorted TWO big bags of Smol Acrobat hand me downs and put half away for future use and half into the donation bin to share with friends with younger ones than ours. We’re going to have them over one night with all their kiddies, feed them dinner, and have them pick through the bins for whatever they’d like to take away. Win win for everyone!
PiC has to finish his endless painting project first and then we have to find a date before the rush of Fall and holidays and all that overtakes us. Cross your fingers for us that we don’t lose another 3 months before we manage to organize something.
Bestie turned 40 this week ❣️ I’m so proud of her in so many ways. She’s awesome.
