    Well. I’ve been playing video games and napping most of the day. Time for guitar I guess?

    Double roll!

    This is my favourite embroidery piece (with hand crocheted edging) that my mother did.

    She’s always been more interested in doing the crochet than the embroidery, so there are lots of doilies and things in the cupboard.

      That’s really really nice, so many different embroidery stitches, many of them traditional dating back to the Elizabethan Era.

      Just want to add that this is a very good piece and worth framing. It’s a good example of women’s art and culture. Your mum had a good sense of history and culture. 🙂

      ( I’m that nerd who goes to the V&A and buys the books on historic embroidery )

        It would be the different stitches that attracted her to the design - she’s always hated doing lots of satin stitch and preferred using different fill stitches.

          those fill stitches are what drew my eye , and the circles that frame each design like a late medieval miniature

    Classes done for the day and I won both the Kahoot quizzes (for the general cat class, and the animal health and wellbeing class).

    Made myself a lovely coffee as my reward

    My grandma made Geoffrey the dog steamed fish, rice, and pasta. He ate none of it. But I gave him 20 of these little treats yesterday, because that’s all he’ll eat.

    We are trying lots of different things.

    Watching the latest episode of Severance right now and…

    live ramblings, big spoilers

    OMG SEXY YOUNG MARK OMG IT’S ADAM SCOTT IN FULL HOTNESS OMGGGGG 🥵 🥵🥵🥵🥵

    GEMMA HAS AN OUTIE?!?!!!?

    WHAT IS THIS DENTIST TORTURE WHAAAAT

    DEVON IS SO KICKASS

    I LOVE PRE-SEVERANCE MARK SO MUCH 😭

    HOW MANY LAYERS OF SEVERED WORKERS ARE THERE WTF

    I JUST WANT TO REITERATE: ADAM HOTT CAN ABSOLUTELY GET IT

    OH MY GOD IT’S REAL GEMMA WHO REMEMBERS MARK, OH FUCK OH FUCK

    WHAT THE FUCK HOW DID THE LUMON FERTILITY CENTRE GET INVOLVED

    WAIT WHAT IT’S THE FIGHTING CARD, THAT’S ACTUALLY - WHAAAAT

    HOW DEEP DOES THIS GOOOOOO

    ARE THERE MULTIPLE INNIES AND THEY’RE ALL BEING TORTURED OH JESUS

    WHAT NEW DEPTHS OF DEPRAVITY IS LUMON REACHING

    OH GOD THIS IS FAR MORE DARK AND DEPRESSING THAN I THOUGHT

    THIS REALLY PUTS A NEW SPIN ON EVERYTHING, I’M TERRIFIED, ALSO HOW ARE THERE ONLY 3 EPISODES LEFT AFTER THIS

    The people who reviewed all ten episodes said that this and episode 4 were standouts of the season. Frankly this one is infinitely more impactful, this is like the intensity of the episode 3 ending except for like, the whole episode. I do think the whole show has just been turned around completely on its head… not so much the premise (that was beautifully and cruelly reinforced this episode which was great as I felt it was losing its way on that front), but certainly the machinations of exactly what the fuck is going on… Imma need to process this one
