Plants! Gardening! Bees!! I love growing things and looking at cute bugs. I have a plan to grow a bunch of plants in different containers and I've made sure that each of those things should grow well together. I can watch them grow and then eat pieces of them! I crave tomato sandwiches.

Moving to my own house. Still need to get some work done over there but we should be there by the end of this month.

Cultivating and making a new home in the Internet, away from all the usual noise. I selectively choose my sources, but some apps like Lemmy tend to do them automatically. I say to myself that I don't have infinite time and will only read reliable world updates. A new home takes time, but I think it'll pay off in the long run.

I think I'm going to bake something this weekend. Maybe my version of the chocolate chips recipe my great grandma taught me.

My husband and I are going skiing tomorrow, and his status for moving abroad (here) just got sped up, which is really nice amid all the bad.

Looking forward to building a life together while having some awesome adventures :D

Doing some 14,000 ft'rs in the Rockies this summer

I'm dying to build a real moss wall indoors. Like half the wall type shit. I'm thinking flame moss or rock moss because it's super small and dense it helps regulate air moisture. Rubbing your hands on it will feel awesome. It's healthier and I'm aiming for a carbon negative house.

[–] ajw@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

That sounds awesome and I'd love to see how this looks.

[–] OhVenus_Baby@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 hour ago

If I could set a reminder I'll definitely show you. I already grow different mosses in my aquariums. I just want to expand to something larger. I think a giant live moss wall will be awesome.

The inevitable Luigification of Musk, this weekend, and weed

[–] phoenixarise@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago

Pizza and weed. ❀️

Moving abroad (I'm American). It was something I'd been planning for a few years anyway, and I'm super glad I got the ball rolling when I did. I've lived abroad before and loved it, and plan to make it permanent this time, which is a little intimidating, but also exciting.

[–] Lazylazycat@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Exciting! Where are you going?

Getting new glasses. Mine have been fucked for a while, but soon I should be able to actually see again!

While the whole world is getting worse, my life is going to get so much better.

In less than a month I'm going back to my home country of France. I will be able to go see my girlfriend after so long ! I will get my first apartment with my own shower and toilet instead of this 7m2 dorm. I even get to renovate it to get the exact look I want. It may sound ridiculous, but I'm looking forward to starting an apprenticeship at this company, I was there for two months and actually liked it. I may be able to get the first surgery I need, and go back to a civilised health care system.

I was like dead doing nothing for years, and now I have projects I am passionate about, people I love and care for and so much to look forward to.

I just hope that my gender will not be in the way of that, and that they don't destroy the world before I can start to live.

Im looking forward to spring and summer when I can take many bike rides in the warmth, under the sunny sky

  • I get to drive my very nice new-to-me car on ~1500 km of fun mountain highways next week
  • I'm taking a weaving class in a few weeks
  • My grandmother's 100th birthday is next month
  • My best friend is coming to visit for the first time in three years this summer, then I'm flying back with her to spend a couple of weeks in her city

Got some vacation time coming up. Looking forward to seeing some out of state friends and not stressing out over work.

My short to medium future is looking for a new job, and then working. So it’s looking like a bleak forecast.

But I have obtained all my childhood Lego sets, and my older daughter is just nearing 4 1/2 years, so I’m looking forward to showing her how to do this.

baking bread, and cookies

Planning to continue working on next album this weekend. It’s been 6 months since I paused because of being busy.

Me and the people I love growing, finding more love

Spring! Lot of gardening and playing guitar on my porch.

[–] Pencilnoob@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

So much gardening!

Here's my starts!

[–] froggycar360@slrpnk.net 1 points 8 minutes ago

Nice setup!!

I've been working on my hobbies and home computer projects. None of them require additional money at this point, it's just fun for me. We have a decent trip to a beach planned this year, and looking forward to movie nights with friends

[–] Jarlsburg@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I have been working through adding things to a pegboard wall with the help of a 3d printer. Sure it's not the most exciting but this corner of the universe is not going to shit.

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago

I've got a couple of side projects I'm working on, I'm running a game of Cyberpunk RED, and I always enjoy reading with my kids.

Truly, the sweet release from this damn flesh prison.
