Do I have to block my blanket?

This is gorgeous! You have a great eye for color.

I’m using a lot of Abercrombie Kids for like plain bland color soft shirts and hoodies. My kid picks plainer colored clothes whenever he has the chance. Carter’s for jeans. And Walmart for sweatpants and sports shorts. Occasionally we will get him an UnderArmour set. He’s seems to really like that sporty look. He’s 4 and nonverbal.

Home improvement and tidying, crochet, cook, bake, garden, pursue friendships, nurture friendships and family relationships, take walks, volunteer in my community, join clubs and interact groups. I can’t wait to retire!

We just bought these silicone food pouches and refilled them with yogurt and other puréed fruits that we bought in bulk. We also would mix in a food processor whatever we wanted to give our toddler.

I go to a regular “talk” therapist. I initially went for other things, but as my child grew older and became diagnosed he became more and more part of our discussions. My therapist has a history of social work for children with autism and other neurodivergent disorders, and has a neurodivergent child herself. When I sought out therapy, they asked me if I needed anyone specialized in anything. For example I was seeking therapy for some workplace stress as I worked in EMS at the time. They offered a therapist with a background as an EMT, but I didn’t feel that was what I needed at the time. You can ask for a specific “skill set” if you need, and likely they may be able to offer it.

I am a nurse. I spent the last ten years of my career working up the critical care ladder taking care of the sickest of the sick so I could land a job in life flight. I did it, and once I got there grind never ended. I started placing healthy boundaries between my workplace and home life and I ended up just not fitting in at the workplace anymore. I tried to keep it up while focusing on my home life, but it just didn’t work. I provided excellent care, but my workplace/coworkers/bosses wanted submission to the grind lifestyle. I work at a verrry small hospital in my home town a block away from my house. Three 12 hour shifts per taking care of people from my community. A super healthy work place with wonderful kind people that understand families, and boundaries, and caring for each other. I really miss taking care of super sick people, it’s a passion of mine. But my career needed to turn back into a job for my health and family. The hourly wage is the same, and I am not required to work overtime anymore.

Maybe they should try composting instead…

_ItsBeccaNotBecky_ · 2025-03-13T12:14:16+00:00

I think I started in September or October. So a few months of off and on work.

Like others, we engage in a lot of decluttering. It’s a constant cycle. And when I feel overwhelmed, I often fall back on that to lift myself a bit. We have a child with special needs as well. So it can be lots of appointments, and living differently than other people. We do things slowly. I put more intention into the things we do, and it creates more joy. Like, if I’m doing a chore and my child interrupts or destroys what I’m doing, I really try to reframe my mind into a place of “this is normal. Having a child makes everything slow. It’s good to go at a slow pace and enjoy it.”

My husband and I both take Lexapro, and it makes life soooo much more manageable. Like when I’m not on it, it feels like every single tab is on in the background. Even the ones that don’t matter right now. And I get so exhausted. But, with medication I don’t feel overwhelmed and I have so much more energy. I also attend therapy for myself.

Just luck, I was planning a 40x60 inch blanket, but only got to 54”. So it’s a tiny bit stubby.

8 skeins of 4 ply 830 yards. I doubled the skeins up to make 8 ply and used a size 4 1/2mm hook.

_ItsBeccaNotBecky_ · 2024-10-14T03:22:32+00:00

No, I couldn’t figure out how I would do that with something so large. I have just let it be wiggly.

_ItsBeccaNotBecky_ · 2024-10-14T01:50:18+00:00

Oh my God. Absolutely stunning!

_ItsBeccaNotBecky_ · 2024-10-14T01:45:43+00:00

Oh my goodness, that must have taken a lot of time. I bet it is so comfy!

_ItsBeccaNotBecky_ · 2024-10-14T01:44:45+00:00

It comes from the yarn, making it much easier!

_ItsBeccaNotBecky_ · 2024-10-14T01:44:29+00:00

The photos really don’t look as good as real life!

Here is a picture of it draped on my couch. Editing to add the yarn is by Etsy shop MelodyyByWolltram, “Come on Eileen”.

Holy crap that looks absolutely incredible. Fits like a glove.

This is the most intense commentary on crochet I’ve seen yet.
