Ah Melbcat has licked a hotspot. It’s fair enough. Things have been intense with meds around the clock, wiping her clean, and interrupting/delaying cuddles to do a dose or chores. (She still gets cuddles every night.) I’ll keep an eye on it and see if I need to shield the area. She’s probably finishing her antibiotics soon.
Pakige.
I shouldn’t have spent money on something frivolous, especially overpriced fast fashion microplastic fabric. And when I could theoretically have sewn one myself. But I’ve been feeling absolutely terrible lately and wanted a squishmallow so I bought one. I don’t have the energy for patterns and sewing these days.
I also got some sneakers. They’re not amazing for padding, kind of hard, but that’s because cheap. The pseudo slip-on deal is weird but works for me. Miraculously they kind of fit - a little loose but long enough. The wonky shoe proportions worked in my favour for once. They’re white so that’s risky but for now they look clean and presentable.
The 2 pack of wireless bras is probably going to the op shop with tags still on. The band is way too tight and even with a band expander just digs in uncomfortably. It’s very hard to find something that isn’t awful even when buying brand names and there’s no time to go to the factory outlet, so I’ve given up and have just been playing clearance roulette.
I only wear those kinds of bras when I go out looking fancy. Otherwise I wear the crop top ones that slip over the head. Much more comfy and last heaps longer.
They don’t tend to be great for me. They tend to pinch/squeeze in the band (I need adjustable hooks) and not support much. I gotta say enshittification of clothing and not much chance to shop in person is doing a number on me.
It would be fine if I still had energy to sew but here we are.
I had a favourite brand/model but the cut got changed for the worse and now I no longer buy it. Never found a replacement that’s worked well. It’s a shame.
I also really need new clothes after not shopping for so long but am restricting it to occasional cheap junk pieces just to fill a gap. Waiting til I become more able to sort out something proper, and also waiting for when I’m not stressing as much about needing to save the money for large unexpected bills.

squishmallows are awesome . I have one as a pillow, so soft. Mr Seagoon teases me because it’s so silly

I need new clothes but I’m not buying until i lose weight
