https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-58560031 In other words, lockdown will become the norm, once again. When the government drags it's heels over vaccinating kids and idiots go into shops without wearing facemasks (as happened today when I went to the shop), you can see why it's needed once again.

This coming Monday will be Max's anniversary of bringing him home from the rescue we got him from.

And that is October's issue of Cross Stitcher ordered. (Always my fave edition of the mag - for some reason, the best designs seem to always be saved up for the October edition. Of course, other folks will like different things from me, and that's fine, but there always seems to be more designs I like in this edition than in all the others. I might not get it again until the New Year though. From November onwards,

it's usually full of Christmas designs until the edition that comes out in January, and there is only so much festive stuff I can take. I also have lots of mags from 10 years ago that had lots of Christmas designs in them so I don't really want any more, unless there is a design that really catches my eye, which sometimes (but rarely) happens.

I do get the feeling that some dresses I ordered from a certain catalogue company will either end up not being delivered, or will turn up just before Christmas.

Damn, damn, damn.... I placed an order at Hobby Craft today and meant to order some gesso, and some double-sided tape (the double-sided tape I need for filling my scrapbook with loose art pages...) Guess who forgot to add them to the order? Ermmm? Silly, since I've been wanting the double sided tape for ages and ages, and wanted to order it...

I recently found an old sketch book that I've barely drawn in... Don't know why l left it untouched, so I've spent the last few days filling it up. Let's see if I can get it filled by Christmas!

It's finally finished!! :D https://whimwitch.neocities.org/ygoshipping.html This took like a whole month of work and research, but I finally put the finishing touches on my English-Japanese ship and fanpage archive. I also added some fun midis to a couple pages so I'm really happy about all the work I put into my site. It's almost been an entire year now, wow!

It's nice to have all of this in one place - great job! Just a tidbit, on the disclaimer it says "event" instead of even. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it next~

I've just come across one of the most bizarre comments I have ever seen regarding a company - the company allegedly gives bad service to customers of a certain political persuasion. As you are ordering online, how the heck is the company supposed to know what your political beliefs are just by your name, etc... Very weird...

And I am also sure that their employees have better things to do than look you up on social media to see what your beliefs are. (And it's kind of strange, too, since, as it's a US cross stitch supplier, I always get the impression from the designs that you commonly come across that most people who cross stitch in the US have a Conservative persuasion since there are a lot of patriotic,

religious and hunting themes in the designs. It's a strange viewpoint to have.

People are just twits. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-58518892 ... Max is one of those 'teenage' puppies, and of a breed that is allegedly one of the most difficult, being a Border Collie. We have no problems with him. When we first adopted him last year, the previous owners had piled on a load of 'issues' that he was supposed to have had that could have resulted in him getting put down if the wrong rescue had taken

taken him on. Mostly, he was just bored and scared because he'd been locked up on his own for hours on end, and sometimes behaved like he'd been mistreated. I just hope none of these folks have kids, or need to care for a chronically ill/elderly relative because if they can't cope with a puppy, they wouldn't be able to cope with that. Most of these 'issues' that dogs have are dogs just being dogs and the problem is

I'm convinced most people are incapable of empathy. Most symptoms of autism that autistic children and adults are punished for are also obvious signs of being mistreated. People expect everyone to be perfect and then brutally kick their maladies under the rug if they aren't.

If not lacking in empathy, I think people can certainly disregard the feelings and welfare of other people (and animals) when it suits them to do so.

I always find October's issue of Cross Stitcher to be the best one in the year. Can't wait to order it next week...
