Oooh, I LOVE pumpkin pie, and I've only had sweet potato pie all of once, and you are SO RIGHT
It was basically, like, the best version of pumpkin pie you can possibly imagine

Awe, we didn't use makeup but me and my sister always put my dad's hair in a ton of clips and ponytails like this when we were tiny ☺️

You are SO GOOD at capturing a scene, these are all fantastic!! Really just love the way you sketch too!!

Ikr?? Disappointed that my childhood assumption that this would somehow provide a leg up on meeting her someday never panned out, but I always loved the thought anyway, aha!

And amazon doesn't deliver fast to my local, so if I want the replacement before January I gotta drive a couple hrs to a friend's place in the city to get it from their address instead. Blah.
Excuse to visit friends tho I suppose!

My mom and aunt went to school with Loreena McKennit (in my aunt's grade too!)
Would love to see her honestly. I grew up with her music and she still comes up on my playlist rotations when I want some calm, nostalgic music!

Not true not true not true!!!

My dog hated the rain, but insisted on going out anyway. She'd just give me Looks the whole time, as though saying, why tf aren't you fixing this?!
(Ironically, her name was Rayn!)

Ooh, I just finished this story and loved it - I already said so on ao3 but it bears repeating that these are gorgeous, and I adore your use of color and composition on all of them!!

Lmao, well I for one, am pleased the magpie buffet has come to a hopeful close! They can be so hard to get rid of when there's a bunch!

Soaps?!? I mean I know they smell good, but 😬😬😂
Omg, 12 tho! Hate that for you!! I'm very glad that as far as I know, this was a solo mouse and not a full on invasion - been there and it's NOT fun! (I've caught a ton in the garage, but as it's not attached to the house I say it doesn't count, lol!)

Aha! Got him at last!!

Still though, that extra bedroom/art room was something I still very much miss! Luckily my bedroom closet is weirdly massive, which is amazing
(Any crickets in my current home are likely my own fault anyway, as I feed them to my geckos, lmao)

They were most often just in the basement, but still!
We have a sort of porch/unlived in attachment on our trailer thats in renovation hiatus where the chipmunks get in and make a mess, but they, thankfully, are unable to get into the living quarters too.
Man, rodents are just a constant I guess 😅

Currently live in an old trailer that's seen many many better days, but the rodents in the living area are at least just the odd autumn thing!
(Just don't peek in the old unattached garage/shop 😅)

I love small houses- like, not cramped, but room for all my stuff and no more!
My last house was this old giant, drafty country house I rented with a friend. Like, we both had two bedrooms. But it also cost a Fortune to heat, and had both mice and voles, which stink!!

Relatable, but I am CRINGING at crunchy being used to describe eyes, thanks 😂😂😂

Ain't that the way 😂😅
(Frame procrastination and all, lmao)

The joys of old houses in autumn, alas 🥲
