Sue's Stuff

Things I find online, or occasionally write myself, that resonate with me in some way.

You know it’s going to be a good day when this is the first thing you google. #anxiety #anxietyattack https://www.instagram.com/p/CEEpACmAdTO/?igshid=tfbobxpihudp

Today’s anxiety attack was one of the worst I’ve had. Zulu has been by my side for over 6 hours now. #babyzulu #anxietysucks #purrtherapy https://www.instagram.com/p/CECmU_jjssM/?igshid=1dhxamhzk8bjm

Due to Zulu and Prince's weight gain we've shifted to them not having food available 24/7. They can still eat what they want but is's only available from Noon to 7 (for now). This was Zulu this morning (sitting where the food bowl goes)... #catsofinstagram #babyzulu #IFForCats https://www.instagram.com/p/CDjbky0A3Kc/?igshid=zxbejnbh4zag

Part of today’s food intake involves a lovely multigrain rye bread, thinly sliced deli American cheese, butter, and the application of even heat. #foodporn #grilledcheesesandwich https://www.instagram.com/p/CDE3VTkAX9Q/?igshid=1fc72rkvb6syk

Turns out that it was a controlled burn. https://www.instagram.com/p/CDEx5pfAi_l/?igshid=4sdgn2w3we93

So this is happening... Fire dept is there. Just hope no one was hurt. https://www.instagram.com/p/CDEmak5A-eG/?igshid=8lmdm4kulrpa

Pollen covered bee butt in my Rose of Sharon today. He seems to be having a good day of pollen gathering. Definitely made my day better seeing him. #savethebees #nofilter #prettyinpink https://www.instagram.com/p/CDEkgCCgtlC/?igshid=meb40s5aagag

Spent the past two days sick. Finally felt better this evening so I finally had Jake just shave it all off. He wanted to go down to the skin. Somehow that was a level of bravery I didn’t have tonight. This feels SO much better!! https://www.instagram.com/p/CBmVwChjHwa/?igshid=1hkt7idromi13

Officially on the fourth (of five) cakes. I’m thinking I may need to get more but we’ll see. I have no idea how big I even want this to be. #plymouthyarn #knitting #logcabinknitting #netflixandknit https://www.instagram.com/p/CBcCNABAOXH/?igshid=hjd40x0e9v3c

Another section completed (on the right), and stitches for the next section picked up (top). Row length is now 160 stitches. Total stitch count is just under 45,000. And...more photobombing by Zulu. I think she thinks this for her. #knitting #logcabinknitting #knittingismytherapy #fibertherapy #purrtherapy #babyzulu #catsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CBbnu3cArPP/?igshid=dvel5yxvyuz6

Blanket update and Zulu photobombs. Finished another section, turned, and started the next one. Stitch count is just over 39,200. #babyzulu #catsofinstagram #knitting #logcabinknitting #yarntherapy #knittingismytherapy https://www.instagram.com/p/CBR3qCqgtox/?igshid=36h1cx8ffjvn

Finally finished another band (the one on the right), turned the work, and picked up stitches for the next band. I love how the corners look. #knitting #knittingismytherapy #logcabinknitting https://www.instagram.com/p/CA_sOmCgJeb/?igshid=1uawfb5j65xh4

I knit approx 3100 stitches today. Another 1400 and I’ll finish this panel and turn the work for the next one. The cream colored stripe at the top is where I started a new skin of yarn. I’ve used just 40% of what I have so far, so I think I’ll have enough to make this a decent size. #knitting #knittingismytherapy https://www.instagram.com/p/CA1uqS9D6bf/?igshid=179z08p3mbjfx

I’m not fat, I’m fluffy! #babyzulu #catsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CAxsmOugqj6/?igshid=x6dt2joh5jf7

[brighteyeddyer]

Just finished the panel on the right and then picked up stitches across the top for the next panel. I made #babyzulu move so I could lay it flat. She let me take one picture before going back to where she was. #knitting #knittingandcats https://www.instagram.com/p/CAwdkwuAsAY/?igshid=teq8hzflt22b

First time in EVER that #cakethecat and #princecharmingthekitten managed to be in close proximity to each other and calm. She’s the tiny one, he’s the chonk who’s no longer a kitten, and #jazzygirlkitty is the Tortie (who is our youngest and a complete brat). Since I’ve been #wfh Cakers has become a little less wild and skittish. And at 2, Prince seems to finally be starting to mature a bit. Keeping a water bottle handy doesn’t hurt either. https://www.instagram.com/p/CAqmgJzDzY3/?igshid=12mosp79f1xdk
