5/ Gandalf (or "Gandoof"/"Doofie"/"Doofus") is TERRIFIED of it.

Her brother Panthro is ALL ABOUT IT, though.

Elrohir has also been in there to check it out, but haven't gotten a pic of him yet

Anyway, yeah. I'll be measuring from here on out, LOL.

4/ Guys, I've been sewing professionally for almost 35 years now.

A meter is a lot longer than I eyeballed. This thing is CRAMMED IN THERE.

So consider this a sewing PSA: ALWAYS MEASURE.

Just look at this ridiculous thing, lol

1) Well I haven't been sewing, because my tendons haven't been great lately.*

But hey, I've got a sewing- adjacent post to share.

Gandalf has been giving us big dramatic guilt trips over taking her Christmas tree down this week.

She's too fat to fit under the couch anymore...

Just realized it's been almost exactly two months since I started a project that would make for a really cool tutorial ... and promptly hit a massive tendon flare through my left arm.

Kinda makes sewing spandex ... well, impossible.

I shared Mark Zuckerberg's WILD video about censorship to my personal Facebook account.

This happened minutes later.

Literally none of those rules apply, btw.

I was "spreading fear and negativity". Ugh.

I found this one from 2019.

Not quite as prescient , but still.

Well, it's over. Nuked all the content on my Twitter account.

So... Here are some pretty photos from this morning's sunrise.

Maybe it was symbolic.
