I got a new baby today and I love them so much! I’m going to get so much spinning done!

I took a break from my leg days this week to help my hamstring recover and I replaced it with accessory exercises and it’s been so nice to be able to move legs for a week. I’m gonna be sad to hit my legs again Monday (even though I also miss it)

Ugh tragedy has struck. My knitting for olive cotton merino I’ve been using for a summer Polo is actually just Merino. I should’ve checked the ball band last year when I ordered it instead of assuming they mailed me the right yarn. Anyway the back shoulder seam is looking so good!! #knitsky

Grace in RE9 started off kind of annoying but she got so much better so fast. I’m really enjoying this game. Can’t wait to play more!

Happy 2 year Gymiversary to me! I never would've thought I would consistently be going to the gym 5 days a week but here we are 2 years later and I've only missed a week when I had Covid! I have so much to go but I've come such a long way! Down 50lbs since I started and couldn't be happier!

Second finish of the year and my first pair of socks from hand spun. The fiber is targhee dyed by Kim Dyes Yarn that I picked up last year’s MDSW. Pattern is my own vanilla socks. The three singles were plied during stream (but of course I don’t have a photo of the finished yarn). Still love them!

I finished The Butchers Masquerade and

Almost resident evil time and I had a good workout today, really connected with my back

Gonna try to cut back on my calories slightly hoping not enough to affect my progress but enough to lean out a bit more 😬

I’ve been feeling pretty vascular lately and I’m enjoying it 👀

I’m almost done listening to The Butchers Masquerade (the 5th Dungeon Crawler Carl book) and I’m OBSESSED I can’t get enough. It’s just twist after twist. So many emotions. I can’t handle it but it’s also all I can think about. It might be a good weekend to binge and warp my loom finally

Here’s some updates on my current primary WIPs, my Yume polo is finally joined in the round and I’m obsessed with the collar even if it was a nightmare to knit. And my Sailor Moon scarf is getting 6 rows a day done and making good progress!

I was so exhausted today that my upper day took almost 3 hrs lmao but had a good pump

Happy Valentine’s Day to my baby!

Benched with the 70lb dumbbells today for the first time but accidentally made a fart sound with my mouth so now the employees think I was gassy

Attempted Deadlifts today for the first time since April and I don’t remember what I’m doing and now I’m in pain but at least my glutes were engaged the entire workout

I got a super painful shot in my foot yesterday to help with my plantar fasciitis that’s been bugging me for over a year. Once the soreness goes away my leg days are gonna be so much better and my leggies are gonna hate me for it

My Knit for the letter R is my Rocketeer Scarf I finished recently!! I love it soooooo much! I’m usually not a fan of garter but this came together so fast! Quote this post with a knit that starts with the next letter of the alphabet #ShowMeYourKnits 🧶

This random man went up to me at the gym today and said “I have a joke, see that kid in the crutches? That’s what happens when you push yourself too hard.” SIR THATS NOT A JOKE LEAVE THAT CHILD ALONE

I drew Omoikane from Persona 3 from Memory for @mariojm.bsky.social

Now vs 2024 💪🫣

Pretty stressy this week so here’s me after pulling 41.5k lbs today to deal with it

I had to change my rest day from today to Thursday to accommodate some work schedule changes and wow Tuesday gym days might be worse than Monday gym days. I’m hoping next week is better when I try a new program

Happy Release Day to the Anacortes Socks by @meeshyfrazz.bsky.social !! I was lucky enough to test knit these and they came out perfect!! I highly recommend the pattern!! I used Son of Poseidon from Pasley Knits which is their Percy Jackson color! #knitsky #knitting #sockknitting #yarn

I squatted 225 for the first time today 👀

I finally got around to taking pictures of my precious boy in his handknit Honey Hound Sweater by Stephen West! He is so cute! #knitting #knit #cat #knitsky

Work is making me want to cry but I almost squatted 225 today (gonna try for it next week) and the MacroFactor Workout app came out so I guess the day wasn’t all bad

This weeks #showmeyourknits is WIP week so here’s one of my 100 WIPs. These are the Anacortes Socks by @meeshyfrazz.bsky.social that I’m currently testing! Pattern will be out soon and I highly recommend them!

Workout was way too long today but felt good afterwards and that’s all that matters

Work sucked but I got a new toy to play with! Took the rest of the week off so I could learn how to use it

Accidentally kicked a barbell today with my shin and it’s already swelling and bruising 😬

I’m trying long draw for the first time so I can make another Jaunty shawl and I finished my first single I started yesterday. I’m so obsessed with the process and now I only want to spin this way! #spinning #woolen

First full Upper Body day of 2026 and killed it today! My shoulders have been looking pretty nice lately

I have 2 finished objects to end out 2025! The first one is my Jaunty Shawl! It came out so perfect! It’s such a good way to end out the year! Happy New Year!! My second finished object is blocking before I take pics #showmeyourknits #knitting #knit

Casted on a Rocketeer scarf for Christmas Eve and this is flying! Hopefully I can get it done pretty quickly! #knitting #knit

Bicep thread 💪

I’m loving my Sunday workouts. I hit 3 PRs today and I’m loving it

Merry Christmas and Happy Holigays! 🎄🎅🏽

This week I felt like I was getting pretty comfortable with the effort I was outputting so I decided to push myself and I hit a PR on pretty much everything. I’m particularly proud of my pendulum and lunges. Last time I did 90 on pendulum I had a spotter to push me and this time I did it by myself!

I’m thriving at the gym this week. Really making an effort to push myself harder than ever, trying to get good squat depth without being scared, 150lb leg curls, 520lb calf raises, 205lb leg extensions and RDLs and 280lb hip thrusts today.

Felt strong, hit a few PRs today. Got a new tank top. Good day.

My crafting energy has been through the roof for all my projects. I picked back up this spin I started a while back and I’m half way through the first ply. It’s going to be a 3 ply fractal spin #spinning #spinsky

A stranger told me they wanted to be as strong as me one day and asked if I was strong because I used to play a sportsball (eww no)

I’m probably the last one to finish this game but I’ve finally had time to lock in and I’m at the end game now!

When I first warped this project it was hot I was stressed and I made a mess. I then quickly abandoned it and haven’t touched it in months. This week I decided I’m going to fix that so I troubleshooted my warp issues, my tension was a mess, my threads were tangled and broken. Fixed it and we’re off!

I’m obsessed with my Nightfall sweater. This Yoke is taking me a lifetime to knit but it will be sooooo worth it when it’s done #knitsky #knitting

I got a new light to take more consistent progress photos and it truly shows the difference lighting can make

Wow ended the day with 2 calories left and only needing 7grams of protein. I even had a funnel cake today. Being back at maintenance calories is so nice

Today’s workout brought to you by the boys from Heated Rivalry

It was try on time for Dylan’s sweater today! I think I’m going to do one maybe 2 more honeycombs and then it’ll be done! He was such a good boy trying it on #knitsky #knitting #knit
