Definitely not a phase. I've been wearing the same sort of clothes since I was about 13. Now I'm 29. It's just who I am.
I hang all my T-shirts in my wardrobe so a bit easier to find that if they were in a drawer but it can still be a pain in the arse going through them all.

used to work with a dremmel alot cutting and polishing stones so i can relate ..and well i understand when they are a safetyy hazard compared to just wanting to keep em clean
these photos are from a competition day, in competitions we have to wer a parrachute..because i know if u ever had to use 1 my dreads would be stremmng 10 feet over my head and would instantly tangle in the chute cords and snap my neck
sio i actualy have the dreads straped down against my body under the chute straps (and the glders 5 point restraint straps too)
(always are to keep em out of the controls)
you do whatu gotta do to get by

My new book Ban The Taboo Vol 1
As for other updates, Billy the orphaned kitten (now around 9 months old) had a run in with either another cat, a bird, or possibly a twig, but whatever it was damaged his eye quite badly and it had to be removed 😢 so he’s now affectionately known as ‘One-eyed Will’ not that I think he even notices that he only has one eye now, it hasn’t really changed him at all!
I’m still practicing a mostly vegetarian diet (still eating fish and seafood around twice a week) and I’m working on cutting it out completely. I’m also looking at cutting down on rubbish (any tips are welcome and fully encouraged!) I’m trying and mostly failing to grow my own fruits and vegetables, I have limited space and no green thumb! So far the only promising plant I have is six pea sprouts, but that’s six more than I’ve ever had before, so it’s a win? 🤷🏻♀️ And I’m trying to make ‘Rubbish Walks’ an at least monthly thing in my local woods (picking up litter while walking, and disposing of it properly, recycling what I can) it’s actually quite fun! And I was on a short girls holiday recently, near the Welsh coast, where we found a stall that did ‘Rubbish Beach Walks’ and work to keep the oceans rubbish free, they made things out of the rubbish they collected and I brought a lovely bowl made out of discarded rope! My next green project (when I have the funds) is a composting dog waste bin, because our current solution to our GSD Luther’s ‘leavings’ is unfortunately the general waste bin (we’ve tried flushing it and it clogs the toilet, yes they are that big 🤮) and no, he will absolutely not ‘go’ during a walk, nowhere but our small garden! We took him camping with us for a week and he was distraught, he held it for two days and would then only do it right outside the tent! 🤦🏻♀️
Anyway, I’m rambling a bit now, oh! I’m also weight training again when I have the time, me and a friend are entering a competition in September I think, so that’s exciting! Ok, I’m done now, hope you’re all awesome, tell me what’s going on with you 😊
