Tried taking a caffeine pill like an hour ago.
It appears that my response to caffeine is an energetic body and a very sleepy brain?

I was hoping for either energy or sleepiness, not both at the same time.
Body pls. :welp:

Hey fedi, got a paint question.

I want to paint a styrofoam head and the paint needs to be waterproof (because I'll be putting a wig on it and that will sometimes be wet).

Is acrylic paint followed by a sealant my best option, or is there a paint that's waterproof that doesn't also dissolve the styrofoam?

The dino hoodie is DONE! 🦖

I decided not to add a pocket, mostly because this fabric is very stretchy and a pain in the ass to work with. 😅

The back spikes all going in the same direction is probably because I finished the seam on the inside, but it still looks pretty great. I'm so happy with it!

I look forward to seeing my nephew's reaction to it, and I'll nudge my sister-in-law to make sure he wears the dino hoodie I made for him next time we meet, so we can be dino buddies.

Since my hands are now free, here's what Brumma looked like earlier while we were cuddling.
If you look closely you can see how bad she is at retracting the claws on her back paws. 😹

What are some of the small, functional things in your life that give you joy? I'm asking because I've been noting lately that many of the things in my life that give me joy are small and functional.

My antique embroidery scissors, perfect size for snipping threads and pointy enough to unpick seams with.

The enameled metal scoop I use in our big bag of cat food, it's the perfect size for one portion. The scoop is supposed to be for serving glögg, which is a kind of mulled wine. 😄
