Welcome

What can I say about myself? Both a lot and a little. I am the type of person who never knows how to shut up, but sometimes I find it hard to just talk about myelf lol.

When I am not online, I spend a lot of my time on creative projects. I taught myself how to knit and crochet a few years back and I spend most of my time doing that. I know how to do both, but I find myself mostly doing crochet these days. It is a bit easier to do casually without worrying about dropping all of my stitches. I am not great at keeping it updated, but you can check my Ravelry to see what I am up to.

I also love to garden. I spend all winter waiting for it to be warm again. I could spend all day in my garden once it is nice out (provided it isn't too hot as I am sensitive to the heat). I mostly do herbal and vegtable gardening, but I also include some flowers to provide for the polinators. I also bird watch! I live in the middle of the city and have gone from attracting only House Sparrows, to also getting Cardinals, Blue Jays, Black Eyes Juncos, Pine Grosbeaks, and more!

I am currently playing around with watercolor painting! I have always done crafts and things with my hands, but I haven't given traditional art a try before. Watercolor painting is really soothing and meditative to me. I love watching the way the color floats and dances on the paper. I don't really paint to 'create art' as much as just have fun, but I do occasionally post my faovrites in my blog posts.

Other interest I have include reading, creative writing, TTRPGS, jigsaw puzzles, board games, legos, toy and doll collecting, and video games. I may post blog posts about what I am working on from time to time!

I am chronically ill and disabled, and have been most of my life. I am also neurodivergent and mentally ill. I have worked a lot in my life to not be shameful of these things. They are just a part of life, they are just an aspect of my life. It makes life more challenging for sure, but I try my best not to be shameful of these things. I occasionally use mobility aids depending on my pain levels or how steady I feel in my feet that day.

I am proudly queer. I have dabled in many different identities throughout the years. Currently I ID as transgender and a lesbian, but who knows what I could be 5 years from now.

If you enjoy my website, consider buying me a coffee. Any money I earn from ko-fi goes towards helping me pay my ever growing pile of medical bills.
