I often wish that there was more than one of me. I have outdoor yard things that need to happen soon, I have actual income work (huzzah!), I have scribal volunteer artwork that needs done, and I have my avocational activity, which I think is the only thing keeping me sane, if barely. Not to mention that I am fairly debilitated both physically and emotionally. Plucky heroine does not give up, but has been spending far too much time unable to drag self from bed, or returning to bed to nap.

time in the tinyworld:
My tiny friends have a new rug. I found an Etsy artisan that prints out lovely rugs on various fabrics, this one is on a dense shallow plush. The design and colors are very reminiscent of an antique rug we had when I was a child... time in the tinyworld:

today's gratitude - my brother and nephew, though now sick with plaguey Covid, are doing well enough in isolation at home, and so far my dear sister in law is still healthy (and cooking chicken soup for them)
