Juniper Black (they/them)

I never used to map out my stories but this time it’s helping. Keeping track of multiple character relationships and a were-fey is a challenge worthy of multiple ink colors and a flowchart!

Reading as Resistance. Baba Yaga knows how to sink teeth deep and never stop fighting.

A new call to action from Minnesota yarn shop Needle & Skein encourages knitters and crocheters near and far to take part in a project inspired by resistance to Nazi Germany in the 1940s.

Found Mama Moon this chilly morning! She is my favourite constant amidst turmoil.

Took Bobbin to work last week and he had a blast! Took a well- deserved break with a mug of cider and some knitting. #knitsky #lefufu #bobbin

WTAF.

Slow but steady exit prep: rehoming all our beloved plants. Thankfully many of them already are in great home, and the last few I see every day at my office! This is Kolo, our beloved snake plant and a v good boi.

The moon reminds me that feelings are important, phases come and go, and to always hold hope.

I knew it would take less than a day for a tiktok dj to make something.

I forgot about this film! It’s been ages since I saw it.

Thank you! It was stained so I added some vines and practiced my french knots. 🥰

Kevin got to ride in the big skeleton seat today! He was super stoked about it even if his view was limited.

Some ✨whimsy✨ for your Friday. #hopecore #whimsy

A red binder, stuffed with papers sits underneath a stack of smaller envelopes with blue sticky notes on top. A yellow tin sits in the background and the entire stack sits on a brown tabletop.

Organizing and downsizing my early journal papers in our slow prep to move abroad! It’s an agonizing process (only bc I want it NOW) but it helps to do something rather than nothing.

Oh excellent! I love it when there are clever repairs. Like a little secret we carry just for ourselves.

Pulled in to my local library after work last night and caught this tiny flash of red in my headlights. I love the resistance and resilience of fungi. I said hello and left them to do their thing.

That is so incredibly frustrating! Were you able to repair it?
This scarf looks wonderful on you!

Been practicing joyful dressing as therapy against apathy. It helps. A fresh dress that better meets my Endometriosis needs, thrifted blouse & cardigan and my beloved Doc Marten shoes. Almost 40 is looking good!

Fascinating book set during an outbreak of botulism that led to mass dancing of a trance-like frenzy. Amidst the dance, 3 women navigate love, motherhood, child loss, and the bonds that go deeper than blood.

Determined to slam my boots to the floor more times than my oppressors until the blessed day comes when I can piss on their graves with gleeful victory.
Rest comes in carefully hoarded snatches, enough to rise again and see what good I can do.

Masters of Death by Olivie Blake has had me cackling! Very wry humor and Pratchett-esque world building. #reader #booktok

All set for the start of Soup, Craft, and Spooky szn!

Some patchwork puzzling as I wait for the temps to go below 75f/23c
