Cards for the game Morels on the table
Always a good time with Morels! I need to remember how quick a game this can be for days when doing anything after work feels impossible. #boardgames #gaming

Book- The God of the Woods.
It’s time to start the June pick for book club! Each month is a different theme or genre and June is “book that everyone is talking about.”This won the vote - I don’t really know anything about it. #booksky #reading #books

Beaded tube in red, black, yellow, and white.
Is it harder to remember how to do something that you weren’t that good at in the first place, vs. learning the first time? Not sure but this is my practice tube as I’m re-learning peyote stitch. #beading

Beads: black, yellow, red, and white. Plus beading thread.
Picked up supplies today for a new project. I eventually want to make a beaded lanyard for my work badge, but first I need to practice and remember good old peyote stitch. #crafting #beading
