The digital hoarder in me is highly stressed about getting off Twitter but needs must. I’m swiseman on bluesky. See you on the other side.

Boring tweet but get yourself a mattress from @mattressonline and not @JohnLewisRetail. 7 years of a mattress from the former and it’s great, still perfect. 4 years of the latter and it’s like sleeping on a squishy water bed and it’s apparently “normal” wear. Go specialist.

Playing a board game with a toddler and trying to let her read the dice after each roll to practice counting. Let me tell you, no matter what your intentions are for keeping quiet, if you see a 6 on a dice you cannot help but shout “6!” It’s just too exciting 🎲

NYT connections is a couple weeks away from “words my ex bf mispronounced,” “the 43rd-46th words my daughter learned,” “characters in the novel I’m writing but haven’t finished,” & “words I’m thinking of instead of the word ‘dog’”

At a party someone casually said “I wonder how balloons are made” and my years of How It’s Made training kicked in immediately. I got you. I will tell you precisely how balloons are made and I will sing you the theme song once I’m done 🎈

Ok I’m bad at deciding how this room should work. I think I need something like a remote interior designer who looks at like…interaction design and flow and that and not just aesthetics. Does this exist? Has anyone used a service that does this? I need ideas, I can do the doing.

Today I found something amazing in a charity shop. 10m of vintage 1983 Laura Ashley fabric for £2.50. When I got home I called mum (I knew she’d appreciate the bargain). Showed her the fabric. She said it looked familiar. Turns out she put it in my baby quilt over 30 years ago.
ALT Folded fabric on the floor. It is orange and blue and is covered in little fans. The selvage edge shows the words “Laura Ashley MCMLXIII”
ALT A close up of a pastel orange and blue baby quilt. One of the squares has the exact same pattern on it as the first photo.

Oo. Suspect I may have just improved my Twitter experience by muting the phrase “I’ll start”

Parenting/Aunting/Friending hack: you can teach a toddler to shout “behind” and “corner” like they’re in a professional kitchen when they’re running around you whilst cooking. Genuinely useful and also more amusing than it should be to have a mini Carmy about the place.

Ordinarily fuming if a Grand Designs shows a house that doesn’t finish but goodness me that was a lovely episode. I’d watch a whole show of Kevin and Lucinda just having a chat about materials and sustainability and slow building. A super cosy episode.
