It’s been like -50 with wind chill added the last two days and tomorrow the high is supposed to be around 14 and that is going to be sooo nice. I know my dogs will enjoy getting to go for an actual walk without freezing their toes off

So the nice thing about my tumblr is that no one reads them 😂 so here goes. Been having lots of mental health issues especially the last few months. Been trying to figure out something to help with it and in my infinite wisdom decided that was to go to college. I am old but whatever it’s never too late I guess. Got a scholarship for a pasture to plate butchering class and I will be finishing that certificate over the spring semester. And I will be taking a few additional classes while I try to decide what the fuck I actually want to possibly do with my life. Like I was thinking rad tech but do I like people that much and do I want to leave the house every day?? Idk. Do I want to do data analytics which I feel could be either very interesting or very boring?? I could work from home and possibly travel while working if I wanted to. But as a rad tech you can be a travel tech as well. But you’re working 8-16 hour shifts 3-5 days a week? That’s a long time for my dogs to be alone almost every day. And my boyfriend is great with the dogs but they bully him so he can’t take them places because they walk all over him and hate other dogs so he doesn’t do much with them when I’m not around. Fuck me someone just tell me what to do.
I'm just so tired of it all.
I really hope starting my new job makes me feel better. Or maybe I'll just stress myself to death. Idk either way yay me.
Why do I have so many issues with my anxiety lately.
Witches of Tumblr, what are your go to books about herbs/plants/flowers?
Yesterday I learned my backyard is home to purple ground ivy and its place within herbal witchcraft and herbal medicine was fascinating so I want to continue this journey. Obviously I know a few herbs and plants that are good for certain things but I really want to educate myself deeply!
I was looking into the Green Witch but really all and any suggestions are welcome for a beginner such as myself.
-slams mug down on the table and stands- MY TIME HAS COME.
….Ahem. Yes, I think I can help.
I’m a huge proponent of pairing magical education with mundane learning, both for safety and for context. Thus, books on plants, for spells and medicine alike, make up a big part of my library.
For the sake of convenience, I’ll break down my recs into two categories:
GREEN WITCHCRAFT
Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs (Cunningham)
Garden Witchery (Dugan)
The Garden Witch’s Herbal (Dugan)
The Sacred Herbs of Samhain (Hopman)
The Real Witches’ Garden (West)
The Hearth Witch’s Compendium (Franklin)
The Hearth Witch’s Kitchen Herbal (Franklin)
The Green Witch Herbal (Griggs)
PRACTICAL HERBOLOGY
The Complete Guide to Herbal Medicines (Fetrow & Avila)
Rodale’s Illustrated Encyclopedia of Herbs (Carr)
Western Medicinal Plants and Herbs (Peterson Field Guides)
Edible Wild Plants (Peterson Field Guides)
Herbal Remedies (Chevallier)
The New American Herbal (Orr)
The Herbal Medicine-Maker’s Handbook (Green)
I also have a few other books that deal with practical gardening techniques and plant-related folklore, which I’m happy to provide upon request.
Please keep in mind that everything should be read with common sense and a grain of salt in mind. I have a lot more books that I refer to, but these are the ones I find myself reaching for most often.
Hope this helps!
There's a bat in the upstairs bathroom but I can't find it and my brother is too scared to look for it and it's been an hour and it's after 1 in the morning. So I'm going to bed and hopefully I can find the ninja bat in the morning.
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again but it is absolutely an example of civilizational inadequacy that only deaf people know ASL
“oh we shouldn’t teach children this language, it will only come in handy if they [checks notes] ever have to talk in a situation where it’s noisy or they need to be quiet”
My mom learned it because she figured she’ll go deaf when she gets old
My family went holiday SCUBA diving once, and a couple of Deaf guys were in the group. I was really little and I spent most of the briefing overcome with the realization that while the rest of us were going to have regulators in our mouths and be underwater fairly soon, they were going to be able to do all the same stuff and keep talking.
The only reason some form of sign language is not a standard skill is ableism, as far as I can tell.
For anyone interested in learning, Bill Vicars has full lessons of ASL on youtube that were used in my college level classes.

and here’s the link to the website he puts in his videos:
https://www.lifeprint.com/
Me; has 2 seperate sewing patterns that I’m working on, a skirt and a blouse
Also me; you know what I finished that red silk dress I should buy A Bunch of linen and make myself a Norse apron dress
That skirt, which still needs the zipper to be put in and the blouse, which is literally just cut out and sitting in pieces; bitch
Me, already browsing linen; sorry can’t hear you
1. I feel your pain
2. Sit you down while I drop some links on you that are gonna change your life
1. Linen you say? Well head on over to https://www.mcssl.com/store/gray-lines-linen-inc/solid-linen. @dancing-thru-clouds clued me onto this seller and it changed my life
2. Wool? Ok do you want
2A; Broadcloth? https://www.wmboothdraper.com/index.html (This site also has linen and silk and linen thread! Now some of the broadcloth does have nylon but many are pure wool! Also has gorgeous silks)
2B; Lighter weight wools? https://www.sohoskirts.com/ (Some are blends, but many are pure wool
3. Cotton or silk? OR hemp? OR linen? OR wool? https://www.dharmatrading.com/fabric/fabric-from-dharma-trading-co.html
Hey do you have a pattern for the apron dress? I’ve been wanting one for forever and I’ve been meaning to start sewing and making things
Yeah I’ll be working off this; http://www.dragonlore.net/costuming/apron_dress_3gore.php
You can punch in your measurements and it’ll put out how much fabric you need and how to cut it!
There’s great instructions for making the underdress on that same site.
Also, a plus; Norse style apron dresses are comfy as all hell and tbh should never have gone out of style, because again comfy as all hell. You can dress them up with beads and shinies! You can dress them down for work! You can use linen for cool breathable comfort in the summer or wool for warmth in winter! It’s truly versatile!
http://viking.snapshotstacy.com/underdress.html here’s a real good real simple pattern for the underdress too
I'll just hang with Frank
Well I think today is the day I finally admit to myself that I'm never going to compete in mounted archery because I just don't like riding anymore. Went for a short ride yesterday and not only did I not enjoy it at all it fucked up my knees and made my back go out. So I think I'll just stick to ground archery and be happy with that. Plus allergies are getting worse and I don't need to deal with that either. I suppose I could always compete at a walk but not going to lie at the level I can shoot and ride at that's dumb so no. I'm not driving 8+ hours one way to do that. Plus I've never completed so I don't know what I'm missing and I think I'd like to keep it that way.
