Cuddle Party

Everyone needs contact comfort sometimes.  Not everyone has ample opportunities for this in facetime.  So here is a chance for a cuddle party in cyberspace.  Virtual cuddling can help people feel better.

We have a cuddle room that comes with fort cushions, fort frames, sheets for draping, and a weighted blanket.  A nest full of colorful egg pillows sits in one corner.  There is a basket of grooming brushes, hairbrushes, and styling combs.  A bin holds textured pillows. There is a big basket of craft supplies along with art markers, coloring pages, and blank paper.  The kitchen has a popcorn machine. Labels are available to mark dietary needs, recipe ingredients, and level of spiciness. Here is the bathroom, open to everyone.  There is a lawn tent and an outdoor hot tub. Bathers should post a sign for nude or clothed activity.  Come snuggle up!

In honor of the season, the orange pumpkin bowl holds healthy-ish candy and homemade treats; the teal pumpkin holds assorted fidgets, glow-in-the-dark toys, and Halloween stickers.  The fruit bowl includes apples, pears, persimmons, and pomegranates.

Why the Pipeline Leaks Like a Fucking Sieve

This is why women bail out of STEMZ.  Because people are assholes.

Wednesday Yardening

Today is sunny, breezy, and cool.  I fed the birds.

I planted two bags of 7 Scilla Mix under the trees along the south side of the driveway. 

EDIT 10-17-18: I planted 12 Dutch Iris Mix in the wagonwheel garden at the end of the driveway.

The soybean field across the road is being harvested today.  Chaff everywhere, so thick you can see it hanging in the air. Bleh.

Lego Arctic

 Lego has an Arctic line, one of which includes a mammoth frozen in ice.  :D
