As best I can tell, I lost a particular piece or it never came in the packaging. Or my assembly is wrong and I used the piece in the wrong place. Not sure. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I haven’t put a Lego set together since I was a kid. Not sure what I did wrong, but not sure how to attach the last flower. #Lego

Thrifting is never as good right before Christmas. Here’s my tiny thrift haul round up. The Dresden Files Cooperative Card Game was $3.00 and half the cards are sleeved. It rates well on BGG. Paid $6 for both games. #boardgames

Here’s the 3rd pair of Blundstone Boots I’ve fixed up this year. The top two pics are before and after shots. The four smaller pics below show washing, conditioning, polishing, and waterproofing.

I have to teach my student to form a better lower case “f” because one of these words just doesn’t look right.

I did about 9 hours of work yesterday. I still have more work, but going to enjoy a little bit of my weekend with Propolis.

Throwing this tip out to teachers - a completely silent fidget. I picked these faux fur fabric patches at the dollar store. My autistic students are loving them. I’ll just toss them in the wash when needed.

@rickriordan.bsky.social Mr. Riordan, you are fantastic writer and my students are enjoying your book. But, and I am sorry about this, you might be disliked by middle school teachers for a while. Smelly Gabe struck hard w/this line. When the “6/7” craze is done, teachers will be good with you again.

Me, while watching The Great British Baking Show: I don’t think I’ve ever had a trifle. I don’t know what it is.
Hubby: Oh, it’s a small thing.

I purchased this art at Gen Con 2025. We’d been on the lookout for a good frame. Found one at Goodwill this evening.

Here’s a game I’ve never played - Orléans. The whole of GameHoleCon is just going to be us trying out games not in our personal collection. I hear really good things about this game. I’ve taken something for my headache and hoping to enjoy myself. #boardgames

We played a game of Beer and Bread. I liked everything about this game except the exchange drafting every other turn. It took a lot of strategy away and I just started collecting resources randomly in hopes I could make something. #boardgames

Hubby and I watched an anime about board games. We saw the characters play Marrakech and have wanted to try it ever since. Getting our chance at GameHoleCon. #boardgames

I was mad when Etsy seller sent me a sweatshirt instead of the hoodie I ordered for my Halloween costume. Seller refuses to fix problem. Hubby suggested I crochet a hat with flaps and add the 3 eyes to ea flap. Now my K-Pop Demon Hunter Sussy costume is complete. #Halloween

Decided to play Lorenzo il Magnifico. Hubby told me we played this at the Gen Con just before pandemic and I walked away epically pissed off. Apparently, the guy teaching the game was not great and told everyone rules as they came up. I enjoyed this play through quite a bit. #boardgames

Day 2 of GameHoleCon, started by playing Metro. This game was lots of fun. #boardgames

Was able to go to GameHoleCon on day one. We checked out the game library and tried Belfort. Not a bad worker placement at all. #boardgames

I knew not to shop with Etsy and I did it anyway. Now my costume is less than ideal bc the seller sent the wrong thing.

Anyone ever played this game? Just found it at a thrift store for $3. It has a good rating on BGG so seemed worth a try for the price. #boardgames

It’s boot season! This pair of Blundstone belongs to coworker. Been keeping them going for 3yrs now. 3yrs ago, she brought them to me with a massive turkey grease stain. She heard I was the best on staff, and she heard correctly. Just cleaned these boots and abt to waterproof. #boots
