T'was a pretty slow weekend, but I got to go on a really nice hike! I'm really lucky to live near some mountains, even if they're pretty small. It's also kind of sad though, because usually at this time of year we drive out to the rocky mountains for the weekends to hike. Still, you can't look a gift horse in the mouth, and I am truly glad to be able to do as much outside stuff as I am.

Hiking in the rocky mountains must be amazing!! I'm glad to hear you've still got some nice hikes closer to home though.

It's much the same here. We're lucky to live in the Berkshires in Massachusetts, so thankfully we have no shortage of really nice trails nearby. I wouldn't like to be living in a city right now!

Had a bit of a rough day today, but I did make a terrarium out of local resources and a pasta sauce jar! I’m excited to see how it ends up

That's too bad. Glad to hear that you got some cool stuff started!

I got to go to band class today and we did improvised solos! It was...Truly awful in the best possible way.

I'm now on my way to becoming the world's premier jazz oboist!

Good to know you did some great things! I hope to see how it ends up too! 

I also have one or two projects to began when I have time to waste, but I'm too lazy for began them >.<

Oh god...I'm old, drunk and its been a decade to the day since I graduated from high school.

NO! Whisky, why have you betrayed me!?!

Band class sounds fun! I miss having group activities like that. Once life resumes here, I should look to see if there is something local I can join! (I used to have a group of people back at home who would meet up weekly to draw comics and it was such a lovely time!)

Can't wait to hear your oboe jazz 😛

I'll post pictures of the terrarium if it survives! 😛 We'll see what it looks like in a few weeks...

What projects are you hoping to start? You can do it!!

Hello Wraith - that was quite the entrance!!

Well, yesterday when I was playing Xenoblade the idea to make a real size Riki plush came in my mind. (he is only 60cm) But it's been a while I don't sew and I never embroid, so that could be a bit hard. But some years ago, maybe I could do it because I sewed lots of things. And  I improved myself on that, since I started, but I actually stopped, and maybe loose my skills on that, but I could even tried, that's not a problem after all, just need the materials.

That is such a good idea!! I would love to see a life-sized Riki plush.

His shape shouldn't be too challenging. He's just a ball with arms, legs and hair 😄 If you do start to make him, please show me some progress photos!

Yay!

I'm a big fan of Riki. He's so much better than Tatsu.... 😣

That does sound really fun! Hopefully you get to partake, (Or should I say artake) in this comic group again soon!

Wait...you're Welsh? Oh my god, I found someone who's not a dry humoured, crazy, condescending Brit. Finally, proper human contact!

Haha, we've swapped countries 😛

I hope the lockdown stuff over there hasn't affected you too much. I heard from my family that it had been very strict where they live in Wales (which, on one hand, is good! But on the other hand, isolation can be tough!)

Do you live near family and friends? I hope that you can at least spend some time with them, and maybe eat some of your favourite foods!

The cake sounds perfect!! We are going to have a cake with strawberries and cream, though I am tempted to also make a cheesecake (my favourite!)

Sounds to be great cakes! I love cheesecakes too, but for my birthday I rather prefer rolled cake filled of hazelnut cocoa spread. Can only eat it if you're not scared of all the calories in contain haha
