Random mansion generator
The Procgen Mansion Generator produces large three-dee dwellings to toy with your imagination, offering various architectural styles and other options. Each mansion even comes with floorplans:
Here’s a “life-hack” for you. Apparently concentrated Kool-Aid can be used as a pretty effective leather dye. I was making a drink while cutting the snaps off some new straps for my pauldrons and I got curious, so I tried it, thinking, “ok even if this works, it will just wash out.” Nope. It took the “dye” (undiluted) in about 3 seconds. After drying for about an hour and a half, it would not wash off in the hottest tap-water. It would not wash out after soaking for 30 minutes. It did not wash out until I BOILED it, and even then, only by a tiny bit and it gave it a weathered look that was kind of cool. Add some waterproofing and I’d wager it would survive even that. That rich red is only one application too. Plus it smells great, lol. So there you go, cheap, fruity smelling leather dye in all the colors Kool-Aid has to offer.

this may be important to some of my followers *and certainly not just getting reblogged because of my costuming and my boyfriends desire for leather armor*
When I was in middle school we used to use it to dye our hair. Potent stuff.

If you’re dying anything with kool-aid it’s best to use SUGAR-FREE ones otherwise the thing you’re dying might get all sticky
the flavor only packets where you are supposed add sugar are the best. they will dye any natural fiber: leather, wool, cotton, hair, flax, jute, silk and so forth. heat the dye water so it is more potent. let dry then rinse excess out in cold water. there’s a whole system to this.
Japanese tea bag maker Ocean-Teabag has been making waves by creating little parcels of aroma in the shape of marine animals. Luckily for us, their wide range of tea bags are available at online Japanese novelty retailer Village Vanguard, maker of such fine products as Space Tea and cat-shaped kitchen utensils.
Ocean-Teabag’s earliest designs included beautiful dolphin tea bags filled with blue mallow tea leaves. Steeping them turns your otherwise normal pot of water into a tranquil ocean. Proving to be a hit among tea lovers, Ocean-Teabag expanded their repertoire to many other sea creatures including the sea turtle (butterfly pea jasmine tea)…
the distinctive ocean sunfish (Japanese hojicha — roasted green tea)…
the graceful manta ray (tropical mango tea)…
and even a blood-thirsty shark (blended herb tea).
The newest addition to their robust series of marine creatures is a tea bag shaped like an innocuous sea cucumber. This little parcel is filled with jasmine tea, as well as a smidgen of sea cucumber powder to lend some authenticity. Ocean-Teabag warns that some people who have a sensitive tongue may find it tasting a little fishy.
The company also crafted a deep sea series that will satisfy even the most adventurous of tea drinkers out there. A few such examples are the anglerfish (earl grey tea)…
the creepy giant isopod (Eastern Beauty oolong tea)…
the horseshoe crab (white apricot tea)…
…and lastly the king of them all, the enormous giant oarfish. ( Delicious Assam tea of epic proportions! ) Just like its namesake, it measures a whopping 19 centimeters (7.5 inches). Drinking tea becomes an art when half of your tea bag hangs out of your cup.
While the notion of turning your cup of tea into fish-inhabiting waters is not new, these tea bags will hopefully conjure up images of gentle ocean waves in your mind.

So fun!! Enjoy!!
My altar right now a couple of things finishing up. And a general set up while we transition. Normally I’d still have gourds and things on it (I may put some on here). I keep them on there until after Harvest Day (Thanksgiving) but we already have snow on the ground so I’m confused. LOL Anyway just thought I’d share.
I went to my first Society For Creative Anachronism (SCA) Event this past weekend. It was great I had so much fun and enjoyed every moment as you can see so did my kiddo. We joined because my son has Autism and history makes him excited and happy. It also makes him ask questions and talk to people. This is one of the few decisions that was easy to make. I can’t wait for more adventures!

This F*cking Sux
So today I stood at my front door peaking through the curtain that covers the tiny window trying to see who was at the door. Wow! I sound like such a freak saying that but it's my current reality. I was terrified it was something to do with my ex. I don't mean I was scared or worried I mean completely and utterly TERRIFIED! The kind of scared where you can't breath, where every sound seems like a bomb going off declaring your location; sweaty gut twisting terrified. God damn it!!! I thought this was over. I am so saddened by this turn of events and so MAD that this occurred. Here I was just spreading my wings! Nearly 4 years after the divorce (Dec22) and I was poised to take flight. Now I am holding my breath behind I tiny curtain praying it's the Jehovah Witnesses! This SUX! The mad part of me is shouting not to let him do this again. To continue to fight and grow and jump into the world and be free. But then I'm standing behind that fucking beige and almost cranberry stripped curtain, holding my breath trying not to move it and still see outside. The sun even has the nerve to be blazing! Streaming through that tiny crack messing up the view! F*ck him too!! I want to curl up and cry, I want to open the door like a normal person and shoo them away or invite them in in...you know because I STILL can't see!!! I don't know who it is... Now we're playing the self doubt game, mentally going through the texts back and forth about our kid. Did I say something there? Did he say something telling (because sometimes there are clues my world's about to get f*cked up again)? Did I post something online? Did a friend? What was in the background of the last picture of me? Of our son? Was it the picture of the sunset? Of the leaves? Did I post about my weight loss? About how happy I am? F*UUUCCKK!!! Who is at my door!?! He left...HE walked away!! Not me, so why this sh*t again!? Why why why!? Wait whose car is that!? Never seen it before. A flash of pink! God damn it!! Why can't I JUST open the door!? I am braver than this...better than this...stronger than this! My heart is POUNDING! The curtain just moved...wait!...nope it didn't! Still safe. They don't know I am standing her like a lunatic. Breath catching with my hand trying to hold my heart in my chest. They turn and walk towards the car ah-ha the lady who texts about making alterations to her daughters dress. F*CK!!!
Stalker much
So, I recently had the joy of combing through what little social media I use to track down my ex and block him from said places. But after a recent round of overexposure I am taking the time to do it. The reality is a while ago my ex felt the need to go onto websites I use to meet like minded individuals and print stories that had been written and present them to authorities. Whom OF COURSE felt the need to investigate my sex life. Since social media is where I vent my frustrations about the current state of my life (him included) I had to block that. Yes I complain about him; his lack of involvement, his complaining of pay child support that he convinced me to have, his bitching upon finding out signing rights away doesn't mean you don't pay child support it just means you don't get to make decisions about his life, blah blah blah. And honestly I try to keep this to a minimum because I got better stuff to do. I feel horribly violated, saddened, embarrassed and just a little bit awesome because I am obviously still on your mind despite you being the one to call things off. Seriously though my bedroom activities are no longer your business I am sorry things aren't going well for you but you reap what you sow.
I took my kid...
I took my kid to the dentist because his Dad didn't seem to think it was important. They put our kid under and he didn't think he needed to be there. He knew for 3 weeks that this was going to happen during his visitation time and was told several times if he couldn't handle it to bring him home and I would handle it.
No real
So there's no real update at the moment. My kid is still gone my house is still empty. But I have crappy beer in the fridge...
Sometimes...co parenting
Sometimes...sometimes co parenting SUCKS! Like today. Forget the problems we have in general, our struggle to relate to each other in a post relationship that ended in anger, sadness, and more anger. Today is a holiday weekend. I live by a park. All around me people are celebrating taking joy out of simply being around each other. Setting off fireworks and having a great time. Me? Oh I am just sitting here watching...alone. No fireworks, no pretty things, no giggles, no s'mores, no serious conversation about not blowing oneself up, no shout of BE CAREFUL! There's just me on a porch watching...missing.
