What the hell am I doing here?
I'm a little bit serious, a little bit cheeky and probably a little bit mad, but thats okay, we all are....I hope!
Posts mostly about cross stitch, my health and random crap that either amuses me, makes me smile, or pisses me off. Oh and also a lot of posts about The Child - he is my child not some random child.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to Thursday. Hope you slept well. I was kept awake by the rain last night, which is annoying. However MrsD got up early and has taken Wesley out for wander, so I got a lie in.

Have a belter of a day, have fun, stay safe and never laugh at other people's misfortunes. Unless they are Tories!! 😉

Today's random photo is especially for @DoubleTreble and the @weirdfolks. it's a Highland Coo, but not as you know it!

@NormanDunbar Morning Norman, yay to a lie in! I see your coo and present you with this one....

@RosePuckey @NormanDunbar Part of the coastal path near me goes through a field of highland cattle, most of them are pretty friendly though and like a good cuddle. Definitely go for a wonder and get pics too!

@NormanDunbar Yours is very cute though 😳

Thats been a busy few days stitching, but damn, I need a break!
Not much to do in the main part of the pattern, then a 2 row border to finish.
I can do this.....I can! Friday is my self imposed deadline, I do have things to do the next couple of days, silly real life getting in the way of stitching!

I hope you all have a fab day 😊

Good morning folks, here is yesterdays progress on #DeathByCrossStitch I'm pretty much going to be doing this and nothing else for a couple of days. I know I have tons of notifications to get through, and you know I am overwhelmed with them all!
Its a rainy day here, so perfect for stitching.
Have a fab day, whatever you are upto!

Good morning folks, I am absolutely exhausted, spoons are rusted and useless this morning. Its a quiet morning for coffee, reflection, calm....and then a stumble back to bed me thinks.

Have a fabulous Friday everyone 😊

Action for Happiness do a montly calendar, this month is Meaningful May. Day 2 - focus on what you can do instead of what you can't do.
This is something I really need to learn, when its a high pain/low mood day, I spiral right into the grief of what I can't do these days.

(the picture they have chosen to represent this does piss me off though).

I needed to change payment details on a subscription. So on the PC (that I always use) I log into the account.
"We need to verify you"....alrighty then.
Check app for code...done.
Get code from back up email....okay, done.
We will now text a code to your phone....ffs, fineeeeeee.
Now solve this puzzle to prove you are human....gtf you colossal fucking wanks.

I get the need for security, but enough already.

Managed to get local grown asparagus today.
Stupidly expensive, but I'm oh so happy, I love asparagus.

Green spears of happiness 😁

Oh hell, I really need to get a life, or just need to do something to stop me spouting randomness on here 😂

@grrrr_shark I did get some veggie bargains too - a huge bag of fine green beans, tenderstem broccoli and cherry tomatoes.....I did come home and eat a massive burger with nothing healthy at all though. Its all about balance 😂

Update on #DeathByCrossStitch by #LongDogSamplers.
Nowhere near where I wanted to be by now, no matter though. Fair amount done yesterday and today, taking a break again thanks to Bob the Gallstone making himself known.
Theres not much backstitch on this page of the pattern, that makes me happy! Lots to do on this page of the pattern, so I'll be jumping about all over the place so I don't get jaded with sections of it.

I'm declaring today a "dead day".

Being awake and moving just isn't happening today. Shoulder feels out of place (again), Bob is stabbing at me (Bob is a giant gallstone), nausea is through the roof, I don't even know what my legs are doing, but something funky is going on there.

What did I do to earn this fun day? I done chores yesterday and had an epsom salt bath to ease the pain. 🙄

Athritis, fibro and Bob can all do one.

I'll be dead and playing WoW for the rest of the day 😁

@FiStitchWitch@mstdn.social avatar

@grrrr_shark Thank you, I don't like dead days, but sometimes I just have to embrace the whole do nothing thing....and be happy I have some easy to cook food in the house!

@grrrr_shark Its later on that guilt will kick in, unless I'm asleep, then I won't care.

@FiStitchWitch@mstdn.social avatar

@grrrr_shark I'm really lucky that my son is so understanding, he hates my health being so shit, but he doesn't make me feel guilty for having dead days - he knows I will be back on form soon enough.

@grrrr_shark Yay for kids that understand! My brain usually loses the thought before I start typing, having to concentrate so much just typing...its not good, long gone are my good typing days.

@FiStitchWitch@mstdn.social avatar

I made a decent amount of progress on by yesterday. Hopefully today I will manage to stay awake enough to finish some of the repeating pattern and fill in that big empty space. Doing backstitch as I go along on this page of the pattern. This is page 14 out of 16. My aim is to finish this by 10th May....I doubt I will manage, but I can try.

Good morning folks, well that sprint race was fun (I'll be nice, no spoilers).

Time for coffee number 3 for me, then I think its shower, do a little bit of diy, eat something, then it will be qualifying time. If I can find something good to watch, I will likely end up stitching all day, it not, there will be a nap happening.

I hope you all have a fab day 😊

My local cat rescue is sharing posts about all the older cats they have for rehoming......they had 52 calls about 8 kittens they have, but nobody is interested in the older cats 😞 When I say older, some of these cats are 2!!! If I had space, money and my 2 weren't dickheads, I would rehoming some of them.

Fat cat isn't happy now that I'm wearing his bed, otherwise known as my hoody. 🙄
