huh

First time I've ever had to use the emergency flashers for anything

Luckily I've got family nearby. Guess I should call work and let them know I'm not making it :(

[nancyheart11]

Going to bed but also telling you guys about the wip that now has three pages going

Twilight thought he was a Wolf, he was wrong

As it turns out turning into an animal representation of your souls also lends insight into changes you weren't even aware were happening

Aka Wolfie grows Ordon goat horns, get hooves on his back legs, and generally turns into a miniature version of Ordana :)

Just saw two guys riding down the sidewalk on horses

So of course my first thought was Wild and Twi doing this in either Zoras domain or Rito village

[nancyheart11]

Start your propaganda now people! I've had a hilarious matter brought to my attention so let's see what thoughts are.

I could use some encouragement

I have much homework and 13 hours of work tomorrow

I need all the help i can get

I finally finished it!! :D

this is the wool coat that was my capstone project for the sewing portion of my classes!

It is fully lined, tailored for me, and extremely warm!

I chose a pattern that had princess seams and put a shawl collar on the coat instead of the notched collar everyone else in the class was doing

Here's a picture of one of my bound buttonholes! A kind of button holes so hard to do that my pattern making textbook just says to get a professional to do it for you if you want them in a garment XD

Here's a picture of the kind of button I chose. I decided on this because it looks a lot like the twill of the wool making up the coat it rests on!

This is the damask lining I ended up using (I had a pima cotton originally, but had a catastrophic failure that made me unable to use it for this project) it's almost exactly the same shade as mint frosting so my classmates and I started calling it my mint brownie (⁠ﾉ⁠◕⁠ヮ⁠◕⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠*⁠.⁠✧

That pima cotton I mentioned earlier? There was still enough after disaster struck to do the pockets! Cotton makes for a much better pocket than damask and these pockets are hidden in the princess seams lines while being big enough to fit my phone, lipstick, and gloves at the same time!

This project was stressful at times, but it was such a a blast and I learned a TON and now I have a great coat for formal events again! The only real downside is that because I made it from wool this coat has to be dry cleaned (which I definitely can't afford after buying the materials to make this coat XD)

looks like I'm gonna have a place to live this school year! :D

[nancyheart11]

You know i've been incredibly busy because i only just realized the boopathon was a thing XD

(for every 50 boops i'll commit to a Snippet :)

...

i'm going to be up late and it's Silver's fault

[nancyheart11]

I thrifted some sandals last weekend and today the mink oil for them arrived!

Base sandal, as bought

With mink oil just on the outside of the straps

Full first coat of mink oil on all leather parts and coating of walnut oil on the wood

I've now put a second layer of mink oil and will let it sit over night.

Wish me some comfy and stylish shoes!

[nancyheart11]

remember when I was cool and talented and full of good ideas?

. . .

Yeah me neither

[nancyheart11]

gonna spam the dash with all the mermay prompts I drew this year!

it'll be a good look at how far I've come in just a couple months!

[nancyheart11]

i know no one cares but I'm pretty proud of myself for how far I've gotten in Hades this far!

I've finished the main story

Have bonds with almost half the people you can

Have romanced Dusa and Megera (Thanatos only seems to show up in runs where I had bad rng for weapons stuff :/)

Have 35 of the achievements

And generally only fail to beat Hades if I fight Charon in Tarturus before the build of the run emerges
