I don't know who needs to hear this, but
YOU DO NOT NEED TO START A NEW HOBBY!
STEP AWAY FROM THE TEXTILES!
YOU DON'T NEED MORE YARN!
THAT FABRIC IS NOT CALLING TO YOU! LEAVE IT ALONE!

lifted a 28kg dog and carried them over to the table today with little effort hehe 💪
#me? buff? more likely than youd think😌#usually i limit myself to 25kg to protect my back but i think the heaviest dog ive lifted at work alone was 32 or 33kg#i did once lift kal (42.5kg) by myself to try and get him in the car#but 1. very bad for me it hurt my arms and 2. i could lift him off the ground but could not stand and walk w him so didnt get him in the car#.txt#i do not work out bcos i just lift/restrain animals at work and then walk 5-8km with a 93lb dog that likes to pull#but i need to start doing core workoits bc my abs and back are weak😵💫

You know when dogs sit outside with their face turned towards the sun and their eyes closed and they look so relaxed and when you pet them they’re warm that’s how I want to feel always
#erasmus looooooooooooves baking in the sun until he has to run inside to cool down#but then the second he's cool enough he runs back outside to sploot on the deck

#sometimes really nice kittens or puppies/small dogs from surgery become clinic pets for the day bc everyone just passes them around#or like. brings them to hang out on the admin desk or in the back#we do also have a clinic cat (applesauce aka appy or miss sauce)#but appy doesnt like other animals so she only comes out before we open/after we close

ourgh overdress isnt hanging how i want it to
ik this is why u make mockups before cutting ur fashion fabric but im Hopeful itl look better with the under dress + a petticoat
#i still hav a decent amount of hand sewing ont he underdress + i havent done anythign for the petticoat#but i have 3 weeks to do this so. hopefully ill get everything done ><#i also need to do all of the hems on the overdress#but thats. a later me problem#.txt#the under dress is just. a regular regency dress so if the overdress isnt done i can just wear it without that#so im setting the overdress aside for now#i also like. speedran it today and finally set the sleeves for the under dress so im a little burnt out w sewing><#i still dont. Love the fit of the bodice for the main dress like the back is a bit tight so i will hav to go back and fix that#but thats a problem for future me

the announcement of the next session of the weaving 1 class has tempered my weaving brainworms, in that i will do the class to actually learn how to make a warp, dress a loom, and plan yardage for a project
and THEN i will be unstoppable and can do my weaving projects without consulting youtube every 2 seconds
#the actual weaving part I have down incl treddling bc the first project i did had a fancy pattern#and I know how to thread the loom bc that ws my setup project#but everything else i hav no idea#.txt#class isnt till july tho :( sad:(
