I am going nuts. I woke up in the middle of the night and someone had tagged me in a post about getting their fam tree done by St Boniface, and that they applied to MMF. I wanted yo reply when I was more awake and now I cannot find it. I don’t even know if it was on Bsky. Argh!!

Working on a new idea I had… I think it’s going to be cool…. Updates once they are complete.

I have been designing a small journal for people who struggle with journaling. Each page has a few prompts and a quote at the bottom. I have been trying to resize each page so it fits in the KDP format lol For three days! I am almost there. Now just I have to resize all 93 pages.

Today I mailed off a parcel to someone who broke my heart. It was filled with things I had searched for, for years, to replace things that were burned by an ex. They broke my heart more than once over the years but now I am free. Not entirely, never entirely, but enough. I choose me and my heart ❤️

29 for me!

Went to the thrift store yesterday looking for something specific, which I didn’t find BUT I actually found some amazing stuff. I will post the other things later but this one shocked me. I grabbed this bracelet for $6, thinking I might pull it apart for another craft. Uhhh nope, not anymore lol

New story has been posted on my Patreon. It is available immediately for paid subscribers, and will drop to free status next Friday at 4pm. I appreciate all the feedback and support from everyone ❤️ www.patreon.com/posts/152426...

Just recorded a new story for the podcast, now editing, so will be posting it today. My goal is to post on Fridays from here on out. The new stories will also be going out to subscribers for a full week, then dropped to everyone after that. Consider subscribing to help me do this as a job❤️

I am looking for two or three of my followers, who have small children or grandchildren (ages 3-5 maybe?), who would be open to reading a story I wrote? This is targeted to smaller children and I am looking to get it published, with the goal of making it a series. Looking for feedback 🙂💗

This is my friend Nala, she is amazing & the fact that she & her husband are doing this to help cancer research is so great. I lost my Dad, Auntie, & a lifelong friend to it. Any size donation helps. She’s also an author so check out her work on Amazon, too! www.bellinghamherald.com/news/local/a...

I despise when people use being a woman or a girl as a put down. “He throws like a woman” “he runs like a girl” I ran track and played baseball when I was young. Baseball, not softball, & was on a coed team (as the only girl). I outran & outplayed the boys. Women & girls are tough. Period.

You know what I really dislike? When you set a meeting with someone for contract work, because THEY reached out to you and need help, but they don’t bother to call you at the appointed time. It’s just unprofessional.

The final 2 chapters have been posted! If there are any stories or lessons you would like me to write about, please let me know! www.patreon.com/posts/152110...

It’s a tough one but probably George Michael, because I could also talk to Freddie, Michael, and Whitney 😜 You?

Could I get a signal boost, friends? @sgj.bsky.social @gailsimone.bsky.social @sassymetischick.bsky.social @alinahdee.bsky.social @napaaqtuk.bsky.social @annaleen.bsky.social @elizhargrave.bsky.social @shanehawk.com @indigenia.bsky.social @dreamwisp.bsky.social @lucasbrowneyes.bsky.social

This is ridiculous. I love my child, we are super close, they are my pal, but I am their parent & will always be their parent. People should NOT have a child to “have a friend for life”. That kind of thinking is parentification and/or adultification. Both are abusive. Children should be children.

I pitched this article to a magazine but they never replied, so I decided to post it to substack. I’m revamping my stubstack to use it for my stories, articles, etc. I need to edit this but am having issues logging in on my desktop so bear with me on the formatting open.substack.com/pub/sassymet...

Working on earrings this weekend 💗😊

Sometimes I made odd little salads lol Rarely do they include lettuce. Today’s “salad” consists of sliced cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, small marinated mozzarella balls , cashews, fake bacon bits, olive oil, & balsamic vinegar. It sounds weird but it’s SO good! Just wish I had some avocado to add in.

Exciting news! I have a meeting, tomorrow at 2pm to talk about turning my podcast stories into a children’s book. I had a quick meeting yesterday to hear some of the details, tomorrow is to plan it out, meet with some others who will be helping, and to get it all done. Gah! I’m nervous!!

MOOD FABRIC LIKED MY SKIRT ON THREADS!!! No one talk to me, I will be busy pretending to have won a challenge on project runway.

Probably the most complicated ribbon skirt I have ever done. It is a mixture of Scottish kilt style gathering, with ribbons. It will cross over at the waist with snaps and (if I can find them), buffalo nickel buttons. I sewed the gather by hand which took a while, and need to sew on the star.

I am still not working so trying to raise money for rent and bills with my jewelry and art sales. If anyone is interested, please let me know 💗 (These are the only keys I currently have)

I have spent the last few days designing and painting these water colour bookmarks. If anyone is interested, they are $10 USD each, shipped. Currently only shipping w/i the US due to conversion and shipping rates.

Antique typewriter key necklaces available. These are the only ones I currently have. I am still trying to find all the keys I had in storage and am not sure what letters I have so bear with me if you are seeking a certain letter. These are $65 USD plus shipping. Only shipping in the US for now.

The kid & I got tattoos on our inner wrists a few months ago but they healed badly. They were spotty & faded immediately. We went to a different shop earlier this week to have them redone. I am so happy with how crisp they are now. The kid’s stars are much larger, but the same design 😊

Would anyone be interested in a ribbon skirt with a kind of nautical theme? Fabric 1 would be the skirt, with fabric 2 being the design & pockets. Fabric 1 is a light flannel & would be a little warmer, so not great for hot weather. Let me know!!

"Native Americans should not be reduced to stereotypes and caricatures in places that should be dedicated to learning, respect, and human dignity. These degrading depictions are rooted in a history of discrimination that cause real harm to Native students." www.nj.com/news/2026/02...

Yay! Skirt has been sold! I will be making more this week and will post when they are completed. If you are looking for a ribbon skirt, or just a long custom designed skirt, let me know!

My heart is absolutely broken about the school shooting in Tumbler Ridge. I never thought such a thing could happen in Canada. As a parent who raised their child in the US, that was always my fear. My love, and support goes out to all the family, friends, and everyone impacted by this.

Ran to the bakery next door to grab a few things Cashier: I love your hair! It’s gorgeous! Me: Thanks, I didn’t brush it. Or wash it 😆

Skirt is done! I love it! I added a video so you can see it a bit better than photos. It would fit a large or possibly extra large waist, so possibly size 12-14-ish. It is 35 inches long and had sneaky hidden POCKETS!! If you are interested, let me know!

Hollywood pitch meeting: Person 1: how about a space movie? Person 2: yeah! The moon shifted! Or a meteor exploding into Earth! Person 3: Oooh! Superheroes! And meteors! Person 4: fast cars? Person 5: in space! Person 6: reboot a beloved 80’s movie? Collective: Yay!

Whoever thought Highlander needed a reboot can go f*ck themselves. #ChristopherLambert #ThereCanBeOnlyOne

When you have the Olympics at 9am, but need to make your UPS deliveries on the way there… while wearing a large comforter.

Finally done. White hairpipe beads on 30 inch/76.2 cm antiqued metal chain. Available for sale. $75 USD plus shipping Shipping and conversion rates from the US to Canada is very high, so please make sure to check if you are in Canada and interested.

I went to my storage unit to dig out my jewelry making stuff! Going from a house to an apt is difficult when you are used to spreading your art all over. But, like the ribbon skirt earlier, I had an idea for a necklace. Each piece is taking forever, but I hope to have it done tomorrow sometime.

On Thursdays, I am making ribbon skirts 💙 Need to get some money coming in! Watch this space for finished skirts, beading, and jewelry for sale 💙

I’m just a Mètis woman, standing in her living room, asking Canada to STOP USING LULU LEMON FOR THE OLYMPIC UNIFORMS. Try hiring an Indigenous designer, FFS.

Are people honestly complaining about the new Canadian passports? I saw one person said the old cover was “classier” lol No one is looking at it. People who stamp them open them, stamp it, & move on. They aren’t admiring the cover. They change them every 10 years to help stop counterfeiting.

New Podcast episode is up!! I am recording and finishing The Dreaming Maiden story that I started before I went on hiatus. Both chapters 2 and 3 have been posted, but that’s not the end of the story… Please give the story a like on whatever podcast app you listen 💙 www.patreon.com/posts/149971...

Gorgeous!! Definitely check out @albinoeaglerider.bsky.social ‘s work and get in touch if you’re interested in any of their work!

Ladies, just needed to break some bad news… some men on IG have decided they don’t like tattoos on women. They make us cheap, & easy. Whatever you do, make sure you get as many tattoos as you can to repel men, except that one guy. He wanted me to know he is gay but also hates tattooes on women.

I just can’t get over Catherine O’Hara’s passing. Her characters were unique, goofy, funny, brilliant, warm, courageous. Her brilliance in creating them, was so beyond just a gift. As Canadians we feel as though she was part of our families, part of our lives. Tell John Candy we say hi ❤️

I don’t even know how to take this news she is a Canadian treasure, an icon, someone we all felt we knew. I grew up watching her brilliance and the world is a much darker place without her in it. RIP Ms O’Hara abcnews.go.com/culture/stor...

Just picked up my Grandmother’s ring from my jeweler’s. I needed the prongs replaced & to have it cleaned. My Mum bought it for my Nanny (that’s actually what we called her), when she was young. I haven’t worn it for years as I was afraid I would lose the stone (peridot). I am so happy to wear it❤️
