Here’s some inspiration, someone stitched the entire Link To The Past worldmap. Took 4.5 years

Good thing it's so cheap.

I'll give it a go, thanks! I'm the opposite of creative, so this will be a challenge. 

Super cute! 

There are internet pages and apps that will convert images to cross stitch patterns, I used https://www.stitchfiddle.com/en the other day, it was ok. You can also find tons of free patterns if you image google “cross stitch pattern” or “cross stitch letters” or “cross stitch border” or whatever you want to make. Then…

“but I think I just need my period to start”

I’m afraid I don’t have any good photos, but I am learning how to do cloisonné work and am enjoying it quite a bit! I don’t have a lot of money or spare time, but I’m really glad I took the plunge to pay for classes in doing enamel work - its beautiful when I get it right and weirdly meditative to do.

I’m late to the party, but I thought I should pop in and say that it doesn’t look like Mr. Bells will need surgery for his broken shoulder. The bone is still aligned and if he can keep it still and it doesn’t shift it should heal on its own. We have weekly check-ins with the orthopedist.

I don’t know what it is about this week, but I’ve been just very annoyed with men - so much so that I’ve started getting a bit nasty about it.
I just don’t give a fuck.

Look deeeep into my swirl.

Also worth noting: “founded in the 1970s” for any parochial school is a big red flag, as it usually means, “we pulled our white kids out of the public schools so they wouldn’t be tainted by the blahs.” Especially in Virginia and other states of the former Confederacy.

War is peace! Freedom is slavery! Ignorance is strength!

4 to 5 sexual partners and 2 to 3 committed relationships by age 27 is literally me. I feel good about it. Sounds like Average Anna and I would be good friends! 

My important takeaway from Average Anna was that her husband needed to contribute more around the house, and stop taking her for granted. Maybe if he would talk at the dinner table instead of playing with his phone, she wouldn’t be so likely to have an affair, I’m just saying.

The most surprising thing to me about this article is that I had to look up the definition of a word. The least surprising thing was to learn that I'm contumacious af

That really stood out to me.  I know it isn’t an issue for the kids attending the school because they come from money and have that safety net but borrowing money is a way many people improve their lives, such as to buy a car to be able to get a better job, or to open a business, or to pay for college.  Borrowing…

it was “at least 1-one night stand” (that she deeply regrets)“ ... no mention of the others beyond 1 and especially those she doesn’t regrets ;}

It sounds like Average Anna has a pretty good time until she gets married and has kids.  That was obviously her mistake.

Since our stupid Supreme Court blocked the Finnish solution of banning private schools, I think we should do the next best thing and tax the hell out of them. Revoke their tax free status and throw a 100% tuition tax on the parents.
