Thank you so much for the buddy GA! You're so sweet 😚 I love your HA too ❤️🥰 it's so cute. I gotta update mine too 😊

That makes sense about the carrier. How have things been since David went back to work?

The commission was a custom robber token (holding a chicken), which I think turned out pretty cute. Afterwards I ended up challenging myself to make a smaller chicken for a different project. I was pretty amazed at how much detail I'm able to add to a chicken that is only 1/4 inch tall at most. My artwork has improved so much in the past 7 years, sometimes I can't even believe it.

I'm not usually very handy, but the more that the price of everything skyrockets, the more that I want to learn to do things myself to save us money. It also helps that I have genuinely enjoyed taking apart the washer/dryer.

Aww it makes sense to be nervous about that. I'm sure when he's a little older you'll be able to jump back into it. Video games are a great detour in the meantime. Has there been any recent updates to Fae Farm that you know of? It's been quite some time since Jude and I finished that, so just curious if we should revisit it. I'm currently replaying Sneaky Sasquatch. Sadly it is not available on switch, just mobile. Apple was offering me 2 months of free Apple Arcade and there's a few things I've been wanting to try. I'm also still in the middle of a replay of Bear & Breakfast.

Wow, that's a long time to host! Completely understandable to be overstimulated after that. I hope they helped out with Nathan while they were there. It's great that you'll have some easy meals in the freezer for days when you're not feeling up to cooking.

6 month waitlist?! That's wild and completely useless. I wonder if you'd have better luck finding a pelvic floor physical therapist on your own, without a referral. Youtube is a nice resource but it's crazy that we have to even resort to that for stuff like this.

Aww Nathan sounds so precious. Do you have a baby sling carrier?

I'm doing alright. I'm currently working on a commission, and I just had to spend some time doing surgery on my dryer because it was no longer heating. Luckily the repair was successful, and it wasn't too difficult to diagnose and swap out the faulty heating element. It was a lot easier than the washer to take apart, and it was a pretty cheap fix. Just $8 for a tool I didn't have, and $27 for a kit to replace the broken part. The kit came with some additional parts that I didn't need for this, so I might already be ready for the next thing that goes wrong with it haha.

What about you? Have you had any time to make progress on your needle felting kit?

Did things go well while family was in town?

Have you ever played Graveyard Keeper? If not, I highly recommend getting it on steam right now (they've made it free until April 14 because its been announced that Graveyard Keeper 2 is coming!). I'm so excited about a sequel!

Sorry to hear that the complications are internal. :( That does sound like it would make it extremely hard to get relief but its good to hear that you've found a few things that have been helpful.

What a relief that he has extra time to take off if you need it! I hope that if he needs to use that option, the approval process will be quick. Do you have any family here who can help you out temporarily if it takes some time? Or family who would travel to come help you out for a bit?

That's true about early access. What's the name of the quest and the place you get stuck? I can search their discord for you and see if I can find a solution. Or I can give you the link to their discord if you'd like to chime in with the other people who are playing in early access. The devs seem to be pretty active and responsive in there. Fair if you want to just wait til official release though. Do you feel like the overall quality of the game feels very similar to Dysmantle?
