Properly repinked for the holidays.

Literal tinfoil hat

Ten years ago today. When I was in Paris a few years ago I sought out the Bataclan theater and saw the plaque by the theater door and the memorial to the victims in the sidewalk. www.nytimes.com/athletic/680...

A little embroidery update: two more cities done, eight in total. Two more to go!!

Now this is genius and why didn’t someone think of this sooner: a pocket in the gift bag for the card.

Also @goonlighting.bsky.social cone on through and say hi! Doreen can vouch that I’m somewhat normal 😂

Yes, the Thai place next door offers 10 percent off if you mention O’Hanlon’s and they will bring it over to you too.

I’m not the biggest fan of the winter months, but I do love having the electric fireplace (thanks Mon!)

Three dudes dressed as Teletubbies walking down 42nd. This city Halloween weekend is weird and wonderful in equal measure.

Planning some future embroidery (things for myself!) and it tickles me to see that the assigned number from DMC (major manufacturer of embroidery floss, the one you see at craft and art shops) for their bright red is .. 666.

Someone at this nearly 300 year old company has a good sense of humor.

An unimportant downside of Hincapie’s early injury & thus lack of minutes is that every Arsenal podcaster has picked their own pronunciation of his name & they’re all different

I find it ironic that the wash instructions on a bathing suit, something designed to get wet, recommend dry clean only. 😂

And the embroidery of the week paired with the baseball with one city’s team playing for the NL pennant…and the other that wasn’t.

A vacation’s worth of crafts. For those wondering, I do in fact still knit and car time made for good knitting time. (The middle section of the shawl got completed and the final section got started.)

Overnight in Chambersburg PA was a nice homecoming for the area where I went to college.

Probably could have done without the murder hotel with the guitarist above me deciding 5:30 AM was a good time for practice.

Believe me, the practice didn’t help much.

Always happy to have analog hobbies like embroidery for when the power goes out in the resort.

(Yep it happened again. Right at the climatic part of The Exorcist too. I blame Regan. 😂)

First full day of vacation at the beach and I wake up to a power outage at the resort and then (after the power comes back on) I can’t figure out the coffee maker.

It may be vacation but it’s still a Monday. 😅

Getting my Southern foodstuff fix this week.

(Note: Cheerwine is not wine - it’s cherry soda)

And for the next week, my job is beach.

Unintentional roadside attractions in the South: the Christian taekwondo place.

NINJAS FOR JESUS!

(And for those that watched The Righteous Gemstones: the real life God Squad!)

I love North Carolina but sometimes I wonder what’s going on there that led someone tp think that the combo gas station - cigarette outlet - fireworks depot was a good idea.

4 embroidery projects and 2 knitting projects for 9 days of vacation. Y’all think that’s enough?

We’re in the final four of this project and you can see what (where??) those final four are and yes all of them are coming to the beach with me.
