9,357 years overdue

So about a week-ish after my last post...end of January, ack...I got a box from kalloway!!! Full of many wonders!!!

A familiar card - :DDD The gathering of things through the year, Giftmas in January as per SOP...
A whole set of mini pens!! OMG I needed these! I like to keep a pen in my jeans pocket when going out; I know I can make notes on my phone now, but I can still write faster than I can type on that bitty screen, and also mark which takeout styrofoam box is mine... Or draw things on napkins. IDK. Anyway, I love mini pens, yo. <3
Iridescent beads, about size 6, or bigger maybe - excellent~! Iridescence is my jam!
Autobot and Decepticon sigil stickers! Useful! <333
More big seed beads, in a coppery lilac color that will go perfectly with a long-gathering project! \o/
Polar Ice - Grow Your Own Ice Cubes! With a wee polar bear figure! Eeeheehee! Well I'll have more ice than the actual North Pole by summer... XD Polar bear can hang out with Hound and Beachcomber. <3
Two squeeze-packages of turquoise and celadon assorted beads! These are v handy for random stuff I don't happen to have a whole strand of, and they're color-sorted so yay! <333
Instant AMAZING SNOW POWDER!!!!!!!!! Man, I need to do a 'bot photo-shoot in this stuff... :DDDD
Glow bracelets aka Energon Chains! I think Hot Shot is still in his last set. He seems comfortable...
TF napkins! Like ya do! OK, so we keep a small stack of napkins in one of those 60s plastic holders for sudden spills and whatever in the kitchen, and Tang, Destroyer of TP, only chews up the white napkins. I don't know, ok? His mother was a cat, that's all I got. So colored napkins are Safe. Thank you. <3
Two packages of TF battle cards! Lessee, a foil BBB card, seven battle cards...two with Overlord on them those get BURIED somewhere eek. But there's a good Chromia and an Arcee and Jazz playing ...some kind of base/cello/idk so yaaay! <3333 Megatron foil card, holo Decepticon I don't recognize? One of the Stuntis??? idk... Oooo, good pics of Wheeljack and Prowl on two other cards! <33333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333
(I just got Cyberverse Wheeljack and Prowl a few weeks ago, too...I should like write them a snuggle or something.... xD)
Two Botbots! One is a little green thing...is it a pillow?"Miss Mixed"...this does not explain what she is. o.O OK she's part of the wilderness troop, so...a bag of trailmix???? XDDDDDD Aaaaand "Pop-O-Gold" a rare 'winners circle' golden box of popcorn! XDDDD These are crazy and hilarious and where is the fic about them????
Two blind bag minifigs: Hot Rod! Smirking from the underside of his vehicle mode because of course he is. XD And Starscream! Wow! Two actual popular characters!!! That almost never happens! <333333
And one TINY Optimus Prime OH MY GAH HE'S SO ADORABLE!!!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH AND i'M SO SORRY IT'S TAKEN ME TWO MONTHS TO POST THIS AAAAAAA BUT THANK!!!! <33333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

=========================================================

In Plague News: I am still working, so the weird has not hit me as it has many others. I also live with two other humans and four cats, so my limits in solitude have not yet been tested. To my fellow introverts: "\o^_______________^o/ <3" To the extroverts out there: "I am so sorry. How are you doing? Please engage in self care." Thank Primus for the internet.

Sewed 8 scrub caps for work today - we're doing curbside services now and need to spare the disposable caps for actual surgery. I used the simplest pattern I could find and they're a little wonky, but boss is going to buy fabric and stuff and I'll bring the pattern specs for other patterns I printed out, see what people want, maybe take Actual Measurements? What crazy is this? So we might have our own little sweatshop upstairs for sewing the things that can be reused. We have enough gowns I think - I mean those are standard cloth that we wash and autoclave, so we already had those. Probably the curbside staff can use cotton 2-layer masks, though, so again to save the disposable actual surgical masks for surgery and dentals. We'll see how things go. I have several packs of bias tape for ties if we need that. Why do I have bias tape? I do not know. I have never used it. o.O

Speaking of sewing stuff - the sunroom/sewing room is almost finished! Just a few more stacks of things to sort and get put away! Wooo! And I got to do the first sewing in the space earlier as I made the curtain for my new fabric stash bookcase! It is a sun room, there is a lot of sun, even though our back yard is p shady, everything exposed in there has faded. So. Curtain for my fabric, yarn, trims and patterns. I have all my elastic in a box, and some millinery/belly dance spanglies in another box. Still need to deal with a dismayingly huge collection of buttons, and fill a nice apothecary jar that used to be in my bathroom with extra thread or something... Last niggling bits of this and that, as usual. ;D Am trying to keep that room from becoming a storage dead end again...even if I have to toss all my school artwork in the recycling myself! ...I literally don't know where I'd put that portfolio in my room. o.o;;;;; ..........Unless...hmm. I should measure under the printer table.

Yay~ <3

Glad there were some gems in those blindbags! (And I had to send you some "winter", y'know~) Also glad those were some good bead choices, so many of the usual places have narrowed down their assortments so much over the last few years.

You're welcome~ <3 \o/ <3
