The training yesterday was one of the best ones I've been to in a long time.

awesome erika!

I had a great time volunteering today. I sorted through more yarn...so much yarn. A lot of vintage acrylic and wool but also A LOT of really really nice yarn.

And the store doesn't sell magazines they get donated they end up recycling them but I was talking to one of the founders about the type of art I do and after I was off and kind of shopping around he found me and said "I have some magazines you might like" and they were Art Journaling but also some other stuff he didn't think i'd like. I told him I'd pretty much take anything they had and ended up with a couple of boxes of really neat magazines.

Yeah. thanks. Posted about it here [link] Magazines are cool for projects.

Last month I was like "oh maybe I'm so tired because of my meds mix up and not because of my period" but this month I got my period and feel really really low energy. Not as bad as it was but still pretty yucky. I'm doing telehealth for therapy instead of driving up there and back.

(comes into Bitches with a can of peaches, waits patiently) Then remembers this is Bitches, fills up wading pool with peaches and champagne, because this is Bitches and not everyone watched Deadwood. Jumps in, after a fashion.

Mmmm, peaches and champagne. I'm there.

I know...though apparently I couldn't do that at one of those business "breakfast" things, as champagne makes me want to make out with people. But, in addition to the whole bellini thing(Not to be discounted unless you want to look professional) Deadwood had this whole riff on peaches and community...Like, they had a town meeting of some sort where somebody accidentally brought some and the meeting went really well. So they kind of decided the peaches were lucky and had them at town hall every time. Peaches is also crazy-popular if you're a gang girl that wants a street name. Like, enough that in certain places if you hear it as awitness, it's not that identifying. Like, Good luck with that. I miss bitches so I wanted to do my part to bring community back into it.

I had bellinis yesterday but it came in a bottle from Trader Joe's so I'm not sure that counts. I'm sad I passed up a chance to buy some peaches today

we have some. they taste good, but are not very sexy. at least they ripened up well, though.

Years ago, I introduced my mother to bellinis (she knew about mimosas, but no other mixers for champagne). I'd have to go to the store and pick up peach nectar, since getting fresh peaches in December was not possible, and we'd have bellinis for Christmas breakfast.
