My assistants helping with the blanket progress.
Im literally just cutting the thread to keep as much of the fabric together as possible so this is tedious lol

Todays project, cut up old musty comforter that would otherwise end up in a landfill so i can repurpose its guts.
My goal with sewing is use all the bits and minimize waste.

Going live on twitch with some outlast trials! Twitch.tv/bellabullets13

Also, my first complaint is "Why aren't these ports labeled??"
Turns out most of them are, its just labeling FOR ANTS.

For now my extra hard drive remains external. I do not have the cords or things needed to install it but I sorta know how i would do it.
Progress?

Teaching myself the inside of my computer (mostly where things are on my motherboard) and man...my SATA ports are in a shitty spot.
But now I know where to connect cords to on my own.

Everytime I see someone take a piece of beautiful furniture and paint it ugly ass white or gray, a part of me dies a little inside.
Same with old houses with lots of personality and color then they just make it boxy and bland.

Finding the first dvd of lord of the rings at a thrift store for $3 was great. Now I can watch all of em since thats the one I was missing.

Guess who fell down the stairs?
Yup, me. Nothing broken, probably gonna have a bruise on my thigh and mightve sprained my toe but im OK. Walking hurts.

Gotta keep reminding myself that nobody is good at a hobby/skill at first. It takes time and practice and a whole lot of fucking up before you get good.
And thats okay because every struggle is a step closer to success if you learn from it.

Pushed myself to make 20k steps today and im so frigging proud of myself that I hit it. Brain decided I needed to keep busy today to keep to my other goals so I just put on YouTube and walked.

My god, iron lung was amazing. I dont think ive ever been so attentive to a movie.

I've had the cats have full access to my space for the past 2 weeks with no issue, now I go to the bathroom while gaming and loki decides to chew my headphones.
I swear to god this cat has been put on this planet to test me.

So protein powder mixed into my oatmeal is definitely a better option. Pretty much tasteless and with a little milk, mixed in well.

Over did it yesterday cleaning, now im barely able to move. Trying to stretch out the pain is not fun.

Tickets for Iron Lung are booked for this weekend, crazy seeing seats selling out so quickly at my local theater, don't think ive ever had to pre order seats before lmao

'Take two scoops of the protein powder'
These are giant scoops, not happening!
Taste is fine, the chalkiness is repulsive so hopefully it dissolves properly soon.

So i got some protein powder to experiment with. Its veggie based so no dairy to upset the tum. Gonna try it tomorrow morning when I wake up to see if it helps with my hunger issues.
Also gonna try making some oat/banana cookies later this week with it? Might be a fail, no idea lmao

I hate trying to research healthy, protein based snacks and its like 'use peanut butter, use cottage cheese.'

Like the smell of peanut butter makes me sick and im lactose intolerant. WHAT GOD DID I UPSET TO MAKE ME STRUGGLE SO??

Spending the weekend feeling sick just means ive been on Pinterest looking at patchwork/scrap clothing designs id like to make, which trying not to fall asleep.

BACK TO BLACK 2026 STARTS THURSDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I need a venting friend, someone who will let me just kinda unload the shitty brain vibes and tell me shit will get better and I wont be stuck like this forever.

I got more bags of scrap fabric today... family looked at me like I was crazy until I explained that I spent like 24$ on 5 bags when a yard of basic fabric costs like 20$ here.
As someone who loves the look of patchwork, its literally perfect for me.

Just hitting noon and already halfway through my steps!

Also, thanks to cannibalizing my laptop, I now have a 1TB external hard drive. Which is awesome. (The case was broken at the hinges and pulling away from the screen. Unless I got a whole new case, it wasnt fixable)
Wondering if theres anything else i can use from it.

Running a game, a stream on the other screen and recording to see how my obs setting manage.
Testing for dropped frames and recording file size.

Im not making any promises, because who knows how my brain will work, but I am currently staring at the OBS screen and potentially spending the evening configuring things...

So i painted my desk top before I got my computer, which i love, but I also kinda wanna change it around and uh the paint lines wont work...

Do I repaint?
