I’ve been meaning to post about several things, the most of which is a very long post that contains a lot of musing about community, polyamory — and of course, Loki.
But as much as I have been wanting to finish it up, I have been down with a seemingly unshakable cold that is kicking my ass, and thus, I’m having trouble generating the level of coherence that I need in order to complete that task.
(So I’d like to apologize to anyone who has been waiting for that promised post. I hope to get it done soon.)

Meanwhile, I’m focusing on completing several embroidery and beading projects, as I find them rather soothing activities, since I haven’t had much energy to be vertical much these past few days.
As a result, I finished two devotional necklaces that I’d been working on, since I’ve finally received those green kyanite beads that I ordered for them, and I started embroidering the other three borders for that altar cloth.
Here is one of the necklaces:

And here are the roses that were sent to cheer me up.

Beautiful roses, my dear! 🙂 ❤
Thank you! 🙂
The necklace looks really nice … are those ghost beads? I wish you a speedy recovery from your cold: if you like spicy food, I might have a recommendation for you, something I have have used against colds for years, that I lovingly refer to as my ‘magic popcorn.’ I take a bag of unbuttered (dairy isn’t good for colds, at least in my experience) microwave popcorn, pop it up, and then dump copious amounts of cayenne pepper powder and garlic powder in it; and by ‘copious’ I mean as much as I can stand, and I love these ingredients. I eat two of these per day when I’m sick with sinus problems, runny nose, or lung problems. Yes, its taste requires a little getting used to. Yes, eating this will reveal to you those in your life who ‘truly’ love you … everyone else will scatter before your sick, reeking presence like sheep from a snarling, sneezing, sputtering wolf 🙂 Remember to keep the water intake up!
