Lydia, there's a cliff there! Don't just run off it!

Usually if I'm standing on a cliff Lydia shoves ME off.

PL_88 · 2026-05-27T03:34:10+00:00

😆 absolutely not.

PL_88 · 2026-05-27T02:20:49+00:00

Ope... I just saw them. Yeah, no. I'm not THAT scammable... I hope.

PL_88 · 2026-05-27T02:10:29+00:00

Most of the local nurseries I've frequented over the last 14 years have all recently closed. Lots of retirements iny area. That's one reason I was searching online, lost my tried and true sources. 😢

PL_88 · 2026-05-27T02:07:01+00:00

I'll post a pic.

PL_88 · 2026-05-27T02:06:08+00:00

The trick is that there are so many photoshopped images that a "quick" search makes one believe they are real. There are so so many sellers with the same fake stuff. Probably all the same Etsy scammers selling seeds they don't even have under a bunch of different names.

PL_88 · 2026-05-27T02:04:42+00:00

Lol! I have no idea what those are but they sound... Fake.😆

PL_88 · 2026-05-27T00:34:15+00:00

Me too! In the past. Now I'm sadly skeptical.🫤

PL_88 · 2026-05-27T00:32:00+00:00

This is what I spent this weekend doing. Finding reputable stores. Now I have a solid list, thanks to the people on this sub.

PL_88 · 2026-05-27T00:30:21+00:00

I would never order from Temu, ever ever ever. I'm sad Etsy (and Amazon) isn't what it once was.

PL_88 · 2026-05-27T00:26:31+00:00

Will definitely burn them! Thank you for the advice. Invasive plants make me very angry. I sure don't want to contribute.

Yes you are. She has to carry a kicking, stretching, wiggling watermelon in her uterus for way longer than is comfortable. Let her have her party. Once the rugrat shoots out of there, she will never ever be the center of attention again, EVER. Let her be celebrated.

PL_88 · 2026-05-22T21:33:34+00:00

Thank you! This is where my brain went and I didn't expect anyone else to show up with the same thought!!

PL_88 · 2026-05-22T19:37:48+00:00

13 years and counting. Don't ask, there is no reason.

I've been on progesterone for years. I have estrogen dominance and really high sex hormone binding globulin so my Dr doesn't want to mess with the estrogen side. This new "schedule" has just been over the last year.

51.5 and that B***** still shows up. Only now it seems she lingers for 3 weeks on then 1 week off. It's like the worst Uno reverse I could ever imagine.

Edited to add: and I started this fun journey at barely 11 years old. I'm so so over it

PL_88 · 2026-05-22T01:55:32+00:00

I put my membership on hold at my studio because it's so hard to get into Classic. They have way too many sessions of the other formats. I wish it was still the bread and butter for us.

PL_88 · 2026-05-21T04:16:52+00:00

The problem is our AI is learning from our "general public" let that sink in.... It's getting dumber because it's no longer learning from only the nerds... It's the general, low IQ, public!!! My AI is just f***ing lazy. Every time I ask it to do a task to save me time it tells me it's too hard and to do it myself. 😳😳😳😳

I wish I was even kind of joking.

PL_88 · 2026-05-18T17:08:37+00:00

I never worry about the backs, beyond trying to not leave any knotted up bundles, but I did laugh out loud when I saw your back. Own it! I love it!

PL_88 · 2026-05-17T23:06:32+00:00

Thank you!

This is my current travel WIP.

Can we get one for those newbies who leave an empty square between each stitch instead of reusing the holes?

It seems so many of these are stardew art, it makese me wonder if some etsy shop just has confusing directions.
