You know what I’m bad at? Going to the Post Office. I can FORCE myself to go when I have DEADLINE specific things like Etsy Orders or holiday cards. But in general I find it REALLY difficult to just go. I don’t hate going. I just struggle to make the time to just do it. Why am I mentioning this? Because I have 3 items to mail. One since OCTOBER. The other package (of two items) for about 2 weeks. I keep saying I NEED to go. I really want to send people I care about some warm yarn-y gifts. I hope next week will be a success post about me making the time to go to the Post Office.

This week I worked on some Cricut projects that are on my YOP list! One was stickers. These were for a friend what I play D&D with. If you are not in the know, a mimic is a monster that masquerade as something different (like a chest or chair or minecart). It then ambushes an unsuspecting victim that comes too close and tries to eat it. Our adventure party had a run in a while back with some mimics that left another character wary of easy loot.
I also made myself a tray to put my candles on (mostly to delineate their space). The one I have been using was from fall, and was adorned with a pumpkin. While I like it very much, I wanted something a little more non-seasonally bound. I put it together this afternoon with free images in the Cricut design space. My spouse must have known what he was getting himself into when he got it for me at Xmas. He still remains amused.

For those of you following along in the adventures of 2 cats, they seem to be getting along! The other night, BOTH cats were on the bed and no one hissed. And they can eat food in close proximity without drama. They are consistantly using the same litter box. Which we now clean out at least TWICE a day. They even almost played together! Our new girl loves laps, scritches, and hair ties my daughter leaves all over the place.

OHHHHH and I’ve made a little headway with my knitted on border! I’m about a third of the way through. I have no idea what I’m going to call this. But it was pretty mindless for the body, and not that difficult for the border. I love it. Its so BRIGHT and HAPPY and SCREAMS HELLO from across the street.
