kdlb: it’s rare that i pass up breakfast food at 10am, but when i do, it’s for Rosemary Cafe’s chicken salad sandwich and salad with delicious toppings. #vancouverwa
kdlb: Finally got to try out the @garnierusa #CurlTreats Smoothie a few times. I was sent this to review by @influenster . It’s got good hold and give me some nice volume/lift to my thin hair. This is when I put it in damp hair and I used some curl clips to kee
kdlb: I napped this afternoon and then resumed some building. I took a bit of a break this week to rest a lot trying to keep migraines at bay. So I added 4 more Bestas for the hall, and the other half of E’s Pax wardrobe drawers. Hopefully I can keep some good
kdlb: For #libraryshelfieday I just happened to be at my favorite @van_library 📚:) posing in front of knitting books, of course, with my handknits on. This is my olicity arrow inspired top, with @bombdotcomgeekery custom #olicity dangly earrings. #fancifu
kdlb: I’m attempting to get used to the new format of my #happyplanner - it’s the #missmaker style, with a box for doodles/ideas, a todo section, and a blank box. I find that I’m not wanting/needing as many stickers this way because I want to fill things in. I’
kdlb: Last night, while watching this week’s #arrow (not impressed with some storylines), I worked on the second heel of my Christmas socks. I decided I’d get to that point before putting these down - almost there! #fishlipskissheel
kdlb: I’ve come to choose Wisconsin Mac and Cheese with cavatappi and added Steak to be the “when I’m not feeling well and E does errands” special :) @noodlescompany
kdlb: Wow, this is important stuff, guys. #Repost @wherechangestarted with @get_repost ・・・ Antiracism is lifetime work. Becoming antiracist isn’t. Progress is a process and it starts with you doing the work. Here are the four stages of becoming antiracist: . Aw
kdlb: It was really foggy yesterday when I got up. Today, I can hear the rain from where I’m resting in bed, playing a game of “is it going to be a migraine or not?” Treating it like a migraine. Not my favorite use of a Sunday. But I’m grateful for being able t
kdlb: Last night’s treat was @tillamook Maple pancake ice cream with maple cashew brittle on top, and a sprinkling of malt powder for fun. Beilliant! #kristineskitchen
kdlb: In the things to hold my iPad upright on its Smart Cover stand while I video chat, today I stuck my colourpop lux lipstick in the space after I put it on. A nice coral shade, dream easy. LOL!
kdlb: Ok, I *think* that by moving this pile of boxes out of my craft office, we can inch the biggest shelf in. Squee! And wow, that piece of moving things took a fair amount of energy! #thebeesarehome
kdlb: I’ve been slowly and thoughtfully absorbing conversations from this weekend from the knitting world about race. I have so much respect for the people who have shared their stories, even though they don’t have to do that emotional labor like @su.krita, and
kdlb: It’s January 14. My new #happyplanner is still in its box 📦. But look, I’m sitting here at my desk, ready to take a look at what I got right before the holidays and didn’t get a chance to really enjoy before the crazy and then sickness began. #pla
kdlb: We really needed a few more bowls, but ikea stopped carrying the purple. Enter: deep teal. Oh, yes, I like that. And I love that E mixed them up like this after they were washed. :) sitting by the #pfaltzgraff April dishes that are also in rotation again,
kdlb: Then and now. The top two were 2006-2007 profile pics for various online sites (vox/typepad, twitter, then Facebook) and the bottom two are in the last few months. My mental health changes alone are worth everything. But style changes and hair cuts, and g
kdlb: I like my outfit today - rhinebeck sweater and my latest shawl. A nice casual top and leggings for a busy day out. And my eyes (all #colourpopcosmetics - lips too) turned out great but my foundation wasn’t so well done. E noticed it was cakey- which isn’t
kdlb: I got this close to the library and let E go in and grab my hold. A little too much other activity going on today to go and enjoy it, but I miss my favorite corner of #vancouverwa when I don’t plan time to come down here and the coffee shop!! @van_library
kdlb: Mammograms are important. They aren’t anything to be embarrassed by. Here I am, a little later by a few months because of sickness. But I still did it! I had a funny tech with a sense of humor and awesome hair, and we laughed to make it less awkward. It’s
kdlb: Appointments today, so I’m hanging out at the hospital, and they have oatmeal at the coffee stand. And a maple bar :)
kdlb: I got to spend the afternoon with this delightful young lady. We chatted at looked forward to future crafting and toured the house. It was great fun. I’m so glad Leah is a part of my life!!
kdlb: Shiny Christmas greetings! i got this card from @tantrum_house house on etsy and it’s sitting on top of my @thebrokentoken #firefly box. it features the dice from the game! i’m going to put it in a frame or modge podge it to a block of wood so it can come
kdlb: Cinderella’s castle is complete! It’s so pretty, and has interchangeable turrets. And a turn table that they stand on to make them dance. So fancy. #lego #legodisney #legofriends
kdlb: This is my #topnine2018 :) I love the things it picked. Several #hvffportland memories, Esme was featured, a couple from my birthday, my FANCY Sephora makeover and @daizieknits with her shawl from my pattern. Oh, and a new house :D
kdlb: Resting on bed still today while this cold works it’s way through me. So E is out and I’m rewatching the live version of Jesus Christ Superstar that captivated me when I watched it earlier this year (it is on hulu). I listened to this as a very young girl
kdlb: My best friend right now is my tea. Head/chest colds are no fun.
kdlb: Sweet tomatoes 🍅 selfie, while I hold the table for a group. @souplantation it smells great in here, gonna get my usual salad and baked potato and more!
kdlb: Christmas dinner with my in-laws. :) vegetarian dinner roast, baked potatoes, corn casserole, and rolls. Everything turned out good, for this and brunch. Thank goodness!
kdlb: It’s a pink Christmas:) plus glitter (glitterally obsessed #colourpopme ) AND I’m apparently a Disney princess with my @bombdotcomgeekery Cinderella castle necklace and matching earrings I had dubbed my keyblades (ala kingdom hearts!)
kdlb: Now the‘be been gifted, here’s the name signs made for the kiddos, all laying out drying a bit - I’m still practicing my #handlettering skills, but I tried to make these anyhow. :D
