I am determined to be a minor inconvenience to all barriers that stand in my way. Am I crashing through them? No. I am small. But I am tenaciously determined to Cause a Problem.
it took me years to learn that niceness was not kind and kindness did not have to be nice. but having to deprogram sure helped me spot nice assholes so much faster. i would rather be angry and kind, thanks.
Tomorrow going to make some hand salve and cuticle cream. I think I'm going to do something with palmarosa oil. It's the one I'm currently in love with, it's so nice. Geranium-ie and grassy. Almost a little...salty?
So far the lip balm I made is holding up wonderfully, but I feel like it could be a little more firm. More beeswax next time! This weekend I'm going to mix perfumes with the 15 new oils I got for Christmas.
I was trying to make something nice and spa-like (bath salts) involving eucalyptus oil and a couple other things, and it just ended up smelling like what I used as a child to clean the bathroom in the music studio I got lessons in. Smell memory is real and I'm having A Time.
A victory! Now to see what the texture is once they solidify completely. I was worried the containers would leak. (cocoa butter, sweet almond oil, beeswax, vitamin e, peppermint eo) I might do a grapefruit and vanilla one, too, if the ratio seems right.
Hi. Bless. Be consumed by the all-encompassing horror. I'm still out here and I'm just feeling so damn JUBILANT there are bi games I can play and be bi. Thank you. I like Baldur's Gate 3.
