18, 24, & 46 💚

Danny, thank you so much for asking <3

18. Do you miss how things were a year ago?

Honestly… I don’t really know. I try not to dwell on the past but I was definitely in a better mental state then lmao

24. Height?

5’4

46. What my last text message says

The last one I sent was asking my mom if all her strawberries were eaten by the rabbits, and the last one I received was her telling me that she was able to harvest some of them - we’ve gotten really into gardening this year and the animals have gotten very creative as to how to get into our fenced in garden (the raccoons climbed our shed and ate all of our corn…)

We all know autumn is one of the best times of the year, and not just for the decorations, the candy, and the overall vibe, but because of the cozy activities we can look forward to.

Here, we’ve compiled a list of our favorite autumn activities PROVEN to improve your creative brain activities, basically prepping you to write the best pieces you can:

Change Your Tech’s Background

It may seem small, but changing your computer, phone, or tablet’s background to something with red and golden hues can act as a little shock to your system, especially if your background was something completely different before. Red and yellow are extremely stimulating, which can give your mood and overall brain that extra boost it may have needed. We personally recommend looking at some backgrounds for the game Firewatch -- they’re absolutely gorgeous!

Take an Autumn Walk

Cooler temperatures also make those afternoon strolls just that much more enjoyable. Take a friend for a nice galivant down the street, or maybe take a nice hike and enjoy the leaves’ changing colors! This activity is not just fun, but it can dispel excess anxious energy and help you stay more focused on tasks.

Connect with Nature

If you’re not the walking type, don’t sweat it, because there are other ways to enjoy the great outdoors without putting one foot in front of the other. Alternatively, find a local park or nature center (or even your yard) and unwind. Lay down a blanket, grab your notebook, some airpods, and just enjoy nature without an alternative motive. Even 20 minutes is better than none, and it can fuel inspiration and creativity.

Bring Fall into Your Creative Space

Small activities like going pumpkin or apple picking may seem simple, but they can completely immerse you in the fall spirit! Go out to a local farm or market and see what fall inspiration you can find and integrate into your creative spaces, even if it’s just a little guy made of pinecones who smells like cinnamon that you found at Home Goods for a dollar. 

Cook or Bake Some Autumn-Themed Foods

One of the best parts of fall is admittedly the food, with all its spices and hominess, but cooking is actually also one of the most engaging activities you can do. Bustling around the kitchen while managing cooking times, measurements, and immersing yourself in aromas engages every single one of your senses, giving your brain a bit of a workout. We recommend focusing on cooking up some seasonal superfoods, like root vegetables and squashes, which are abundant in brain-boosting vitamins.

Experiment by Adding Spices to Your Favorite Drink

More of a “coffee only until the day I jitter away” type of creative? Try experimenting with adding some spices into your favorite drink! It’s kinda like cooking, but more accessible and, you know, caffeine-heavy.

Give Yourself Permission to Daydream

Sounds weird, we know, but sometimes, we unconsciously think that if we’re not sitting down in front of an open doc, we’re not really working. The fact of the matter is that nearly the majority of our planning, thinking, and writing happens in the background before we even get our hands on a keyboard -- why would you beat yourself up when you’re really just getting a headstart on your next big project? Go easy on yourself; you’re doing great.

Did we miss any fan favorites? You know, other than TP-ing your neighbors house 26 days early just to get a glimpse of their overblown reaction and finally feel that spark of inspiration? (Not that we’d know anything about that, of course...)

Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun

Very glad to know there was a payoff for Chekhov’s Orichalcum.

Back on Grandship, it seems that the citizens’ concerns about the ship’s structural integrity are becoming more serious. According to one resident, there is now a noticeable list on one side, but despite this alarming development, the Sleeping Council are still refusing to take action. I assume this means we’ll have to be the ones who take action, but apparently not yet. To the tavern then.

The Proprietress is in good spirits, offering the party free food, and remaining cheerful even when the subject of conversation turns to Grandship’s imminent destruction. It turns out that the ship is three or four-thousand years old, which may go some way to explaining both the current problems, and the older residents’ refusal to take them seriously.

As the party finishes their meal, Datz & Zatz arrive and inform everyone that the ship is starting to go down and it’s time to flee. There’s a panic on deck and the council have fled. Which must mean it’s time for us to go and play hero. Yes, the council room is now accessible. All right. There is what appears to be a way into the engine room here, but it won’t open. After searching the room, the party find some notes written in an ancient Crystalist language. Agnès can make out some of it; a passage which says that “the ship will rise” if someone does something with orichalcum in the engine room. She also recalls that Egil picked some up back in the mine, so I guess that’s where we go next. Is there time though? I thought it was already sinking. Seems like it’s holding on for the moment, though the few remaining residents all seem to have made up their minds to leave while they still can. Probably for the best.

At Caldisla Inn, we find that Karl’s health has indeed improved, so nice to know that plan worked. While orichalcum is very valuable, Egil is so grateful for everything we’ve done for him that he hands it over without any problem. Back to the ship then.

Returning to the bridge, we find that the door now opens. At this point, Edea finally asks a question that maybe should have been on their minds earlier, namely “Is it actually a good idea for us to be blindly following the instructions in this mysterious journal?” Of course, since they don’t really have any other plans, the answer for now is “Yeah, probably”. The next step is to bring the orichalcum to the heart of the ship. Before that Ringabel recommends evacuating the few people left on board, and here are Datz & Zatz to offer to do just that. All right, down we go then.

The door to the engine room is actually an elevator, one which descends far enough that Tiz’s ears pop. At the bottom, we indeed find the engine room, though it’s not clear how far away the heart of the ship is. We also have some of the council’s notes, which reveal that the Orthodoxy is 2,400 years old, and that Grandship hasn’t had a functioning engine for 1,500 of those years. Given how lackadaisical the council seem to have been when addressing any subject that wasn’t self-preservation, it may have been that long since anyone came down here.

However long it’s been, it’s clearly long enough for violent sea creatures to find their way inside, so we’re going to have to fight our way to the heart of the ship, whatever that is. There’s another lift here, but it’s not working. Guessing I have to switch it on somehow. Oh yeah, here’s a switch. Being attacked by chess pieces. Another switch opens the lift. OK. Now down in the core of the engine room, which is kind of like the heart, so must be getting close.

Here’s save point guy. Does that mean there’s a boss fight down here? Final room seems empty. Big pit at the back, presumably that’s where the orichalcum goes. Oh there is a boss. A pretty hard-hitting one. Everyone’s dead. Huh. OK, let’s try that again with some better-suited jobs equipped. Going better this time. Ninja & swordmaster are both pretty great. Yes, keep running into Nothing Ventured, that’s definitely working in your favour. There we go.

With the Behemoth defeated, the party waste no time in throwing in the orichalcum, prompting alarms from the ship. Oh, they stopped. Is that it? All right then. Back upstairs, we find that the evacuation is complete, with only Datz, Zatz & the Proprietress remaining. Of course, the ship has been stabilised now, so it’s kind of a moot point, but it seems as though most of the residents are too freaked out to want to come back anyway. Which is fortunate, because it turns out the ship can fly now(!)

Not only that, but it can reach altitudes that will allow it to pass into Eternia, so I guess that’s where we’re going next.

In The Shadows of Friendship Forever

Chapter 16: Sebastian

The healer, a man just short of his middle years, removed the binding from Sebastian’s arms and propped him up on his pillows. He had just finished drinking more warm liquid chocolate, then the healer took a plate from the trolly next to him and placed it on a knee tray for him. “Try to eat solid food again. I know it’s hurting your stomach, but it is very important for you to eat again.” He told Sebastian, who just blinked in a dazed way, bringing his hands up to rub his tired eyes. The smell of the food made him want to heave. The healer placed more medicine on his bedside table for him to use should he need it. “Miss Sallow, may I speak with you outside?” The healer asked. Anne looked slightly surprised, but she got up. Sebastian watched them go, his head slightly lop sided now. He didn’t want to eat, he wanted to sleep. It was all he ever wanted these days, sleep just called to him. Even now, his head lopped down and he grunted a second later as he woke again. As soon as his sister and the healer had left, he pushed the tray on his knee, it rose by itself into the air and hoovered there and he rolled over in bed, wishing the bed was flat again. It was nice to lay on his side, it felt like an age since he had been laying on his back looking up at the ceiling, unable to move his arms. He closed his eyes, the food ignored and drifted off into a light sleep again.

“What is it?” Anne asked, once out of the room. “You are your brother’s kin, but you are underage. Normally I would speak with an adult, but there isn’t one. I wish to go through your options for your brother’s long time care if his condition doesn’t improve. We do not hold patients here lightly, but as Sebastian himself is not yet seventeen and there’s no legal guardian to care for him, St Mungo’s wish to take legal wardship of him for now. Once he is seventeen, we will review his case, but if there is little improvement, it is likely he will remain under the care of this hospital indefinitely and be our ward.” “What?” Anne said, suddenly picking up on what the healer was telling her. “He’s getting better.” She said, a sharp pain suddenly making her double up and cry out. “Augh. I’m okay. My- Sebastian is getting better.” The healer just smiled at her and tried to sit her down in one of the chairs in the corridor. As he did, Anne seen his name tag ‘Healer Lenus’. “I am sorry to stress you like this when you are unwell yourself. Please think about what I’ve said, if we need to keep Sebastian here, he will be moved into one of our closed wards, he will be able to mix with other long term residents but he won’t be able to leave, you’ll have to sign wardship to St Mungos to say you understand and that we’ve explained this to you. Sorry again for distressing you Miss Sallow.” The healer smiled and walked into another room. Anne sat there waiting for the pain to go. She placed her face into her hands. She needed Sebastian to eat. She would do everything she could. To her dismay, when she reentered the room, it was to Sebastian snoring and to the food untouched.

“You need to eat your food.” Sebastian squinched his eyes tightly. He wanted more sleep, not food. He had woken suddenly to Anne tapping his arm. She had moved some food near to his mouth, he could smell it so strongly now, assaulting his nostrils and making his gag reflex act up. He shook his head, his sister had more or less forced food into his mouth when she had woken him and already he had been sick twice. It just was no good, anything in his stomach didn’t stay there long. “This is chicken, you like this, I know you do.” He did like chicken a lot, but not when his stomach felt like he was carrying a Quaffle inside, so bloated he was getting. “They won’t let you leave here Sebastian, not if you don’t get well.” Anne allowed the plate to go back to hovering on the side of the bed and reached over to the small box of phials that sat on the table with some clear liquid inside. It was an anti-sickness draught, her brother needed one almost for every mouthful he ate. She uncorked another one and held it to Sebastian. He shook his head. His hands were clutching his stomach now and he looked very uncomfortable, she felt bad but she was determined to make him eat. “Sebastian.” Anne said. It was a couple of days after Christmas and Anne had barely left his side, opting to sleep in the chair until she needed to go home to wash. Slowly, her twin dragged himself up on the pillows and reached for the small glass and drank the contents. As he swallowed, he slowly selected a small strip of chicken and placed it in his mouth, he chewed, then placed another in his mouth. It was on his third mouthful his stomach started gargling, then came the nausea. Anne lifted a fourth piece to his mouth, Sebastian tried to tell her without words what was coming. She got the idea when a bedpan flew to Sebastian just in time to collect the returning chicken. His stomach was truly empty now, even of the chocolate he had drank. It seemed to Anne to go on for some time, even when she thought he couldn’t bring anything else up, he did.

A cup of water had floated over to be level with Sebastian’s mouth, he sipped from it as his bony arms trembled. This happened every time they made him eat, every single time. He was frustrated beyond words with them all. It hurt him each time he ate, each time he vomited. He was constantly uncomfortable and always in desperate need of sleep. Eventually, Anne give up trying to make him eat after Sebastian let out a cry of annoyance. He lowed himself back down into the pillows, while Sebastian settled, Anne looked around the room to give her brother a moment to dry his watering eyes from the vomiting. The room was now as bright as if the sun was shining in here, the Christmas decorations had been taken down the day after Boxing Day and outside the enchanted window, snow was falling down between trees as a stag and a hare sniffed each other in the distance. Sebastian was watching it too over his shoulder. He wondered what a real window would show, he had never seen a city before and knew St Mungos was in London. How different it must look from Feldcroft, he never told anybody this as it marked them as outsiders, but he and Anne had never went to Kings Cross to catch the Hogwarts Express, living so close to school they used the floo powder network to arrive at Hogsmeade Station for the train to arrive in the evenings. It felt like all the students went to London to catch the train except him and Anne, they had missed out on so much, for other first years made friends on that train before arriving at school. To Sebastian, it seemed all the sophisticated students shopped at Diagon Alley with all its shops, eating establishments and other streets full of shopping witches and wizards. All of that was still unknown to him for Uncle Solomon got their supplies from Hogsmeade.

Uncle Solomon. His insides twisted with guilt and he looked away from the fake window.

Uncle Solomon.

Since Azkaban, old memories kept coming back to him. They were somewhat wrapped and fragmented, but he recalled more and more each time he slept. They were times when all three of them had been very happy together, then Ominis had came and it was almost like a family of four. It hadn’t all been shouting and fighting, they had been a lot of laughter too. His eyes started burning as the guilt grew, if his stomach hadn’t forceable removed the food, he was sure the guilt would have.

He felt a hand touch his arm, Anne had reached out for him. “Try to stay here with me.” She said. “I’m right here, whatever you are seeing or hearing, it can’t hurt you. Maybe you’ll be able to eat the bread better? It’s dry so may stay down. Please try some.” She had thought he was having another vision; how could he tell her he was racked with guilt? He could see Uncle Solomon in his head, brown hair, always wearing those clothes he liked. Chuckling as he read something in his book. He took a calming breath and got back up. He took another mouthful of anti-sickness medicine and nibbled slightly on the bread. Soft and fluffy. Deep and still warm. Any other time he would have ravished this. He put more bread into his mouth, he was starting to feel sleepy again. Between being woken periodically through the night to drink warm melted chocolate from a cup and the sudden onset of nightmares that woke him suddenly, he was still sleep deprived. “Water?” Asked Anne, holding the cup near him. He nodded and sipped slowly. Too often he had tried gulping it down to find himself bringing it back up. He lowered himself back down onto the bed and stretched his legs out before curling up. Even if he fell asleep right now, he knew Anne would be either still here or would return soon. His head felt like it was sinking down through the pillows to the mattress below, he wondered if he would ever be able to lay or sit on something soft again without feeling like he was sinking. His stomach gave another loud groan, much lower this time. His eyes were closed. A long rumble. He just wanted to sleep. Professor Weasley standing over him. A guard shouting at him through the bars. Wind and waves beating the fortress of Azkaban. Healers around him, although he wasn’t sure what that was about. Ominis in the headmaster’s office, looking down, not even looking up as he heard Sebastian being brought into the room. A Dementor getting way too close to him. His eyes flickered open as he shot up, his feet were moving as his hands gripped his blankets, gasping for air. Anne quickly lowered the box of his sweets she was slyly eating, she gave a start and looked at him. “Are you okay?” She asked unsure. The words would not come, he knew that by now, he nodded. He tried to calm himself, using the breathing he had learned so long ago that calmed his childhood nightmares.

He wanted to know something, it had been bugging him for so long. He pointed to himself, mouthing the words ‘Azkaban’. Anne knew what he was trying to ask, she had been expecting him to ask for the few days she had been here. He wanted to know why he had been freed. She and Ominis hadn’t yet decided how they were going to tell Sebastian, to clue him in on their lie, but they needed to tell him in time, the sooner the better, so his accounts would match theirs. If anybody spoke with him once he could talk and their stories didn’t match, it would all come crashing down. She placed the box of beans down, wondering how to best word this. “Shhh it’s okay.” Anne soothed; she was smart enough to believe the very real possibility that this room may be listened in on, she wouldn’t put it past any of them, the Ministry, Ominis’ father, even Hogwarts itself. So she spoke clearly and carefully, Sebastian knew her better than anybody, he knew how she sounded normally, so this new tone he would pick up on.

“It’s all over. I know you are really confused, please don’t cry. Victor Rookwood had you controlled under the Imperius Curse and you’ve been to Azkaban, that’s why your head is a little muddled, do you remember anything? He’s gone now, he can’t hurt us anymore. It’s okay Sebastian. When you are better, I can take you to see our uncle’s resting place if you’d like. I made it really pretty for him, you should see the flowers. Rookwood can’t answer for what he did to Uncle Solomon, but at least we’ll always have each other. I’m sure the Ministry will want to talk to you, but I’m sure they will wait until you can talk again, but the healers say that may not be for some time, so I hope they don’t mind waiting. You’ve been so brave, Sebastian, it’s ok to feel the way you are, there’s no reason to be ashamed. If I had been sent to Azkaban, I don’t think I would survive, but you did, you’ll be okay.” Her voice was so high pitch it sounded like she was going to break out in hysterics, but she didn’t look on the verge of tears to Sebastian, she looked very normal. He knew what this was at once, this was the same trick she used to get out of detentions at Hogwarts, so why was she doing that here? Why? Was somebody watching them? Sebastian blinked, he looked at Anne, then looked away, the weight of what she said had just fallen on him. Oh Anne, what have you done? This wasn’t what he had been expecting at all. He didn’t know what they had done, but he was sure something was very amiss here, what untold things had his sister and best friend got themselves into for him? He wasn’t worth this, their loyalty, he was nothing more than a murderer.

“Om- inis?” He stuttered. Anne gave a sad small smile. “He’s away right now. I can’t send him an owl, but I will speak to him soon hopefully.” Sebastian had been wondering where Ominis was. Where was he anyway? Sebastian had been meaning to ask what was Ominis’ role in this, but now a new feeling overtook that curiosity. Ominis. He didn’t know what he would say to his oldest friend even if he could speak. Ominis had helped send Sebastian to Azkaban in the first place. Ominis who held sway over Professor Black had chosen to go to Black to turn him in, rather than protect him, same as Anne. Sebastian had always protected Ominis, he gave everybody who spoke ill about Ominis a dark look. He would duel anybody who so much as looked at Ominis wrong, he opened his home, his life, to Ominis… So why hadn’t Ominis returned the curtesy? Was Ominis using him only to get away from the Gaunts? Yes that was it. Ominis was using him. Ominis wasn’t his real friend. Ominis only wanted him to get away from his own family, each time Sebastian needed his help, Ominis hadn’t been there for him, like when he tried to find the Scriptorium to help Anne- Oh yes, her too. Anne.

She had wanted him to suffer in Azkaban, he remembered that now, he remembered hearing Ominis saying those fateful words about her wanting to turn him in. That very though had haunted him while trapped in that cell, it still hurt him a lot, he guessed it would for a long time. White hot anger tore through him. Bitter, cold, hatred. He rolled over, away from Anne. That feeling again, he didn’t want to allow it to show, but a hatred so intense was forming in his stomach. They did this to him. It was their fault he was in this bed. Why did they turn him in? They were meant to be his friend, his sister. Ominis had tortured Muggles once but Sebastian had never told anybody, Ominis wasn’t sent to Azkaban, he should have been! Good that his family turned the torture on him. Ominis deserved it. Anne wouldn’t be sitting here right now if he hadn’t controlled that Goblin, maybe he should have allowed it to kill her. If he had allowed that, he would be free from his sister. Uncle Solomon deserved to die, he had been attacking Sebastian and his friend, did Anne just not see that? She chose to ignore it obviously. She chose Uncle Solomon over him, she hated him, she had always hated him. His parents hated him too, that’s why they killed themselves and made it look like an accident, they wanted to get away from him. Rage fueled more and more bitter thoughts flashing through him. Every single injustice ever done to him. Then his stomach cramps start again, which really set his temper off.

Anne looked up, the water jug had started vibrating. She glanced uncertainly at Sebastian, her brother had rolled over in bed, she couldn’t see if he was awake or not. She wondered for a moment if had been visited by terrors in his sleep, so she reached over to place her hand on his arm, as that always soothed him. The jug vibrated more intensely as her fingers touched his arm, then a jolt went through her, turning hot in seconds. “OWW!” She screamed, leaping to her feet and dancing on the spot, shaking her now tingling fingers. “What in Blazes? What was that for Sebastian?”

She was almost moaning as pain, hot pain, ran up her. He glanced over his shoulder at her, then looked away, pulling the Slytherin house fleece up past his face, as if trying to hide from her. She had no idea what had gotten into him. “I’m sorry?” She tried, although she didn’t know what she had did wrong. Maybe he was upset over Ominis’ continued absence “I’m sure Ominis will come visit you when he can. He does care about you dearly too, you know that. That has never changed. Sebastian, please- Don’t shut me out.” She reached back over and tried to bring the fleece down, this time earning a frustrated moan and an arm slapping her hand away. “Lea -me- lone” He pulled the blanket higher over him, now covering his head. Anne just sat there, fighting back tears. It sounded like Sebastian was doing the same. What ever had happened? She could see they both needed some breathing space. She didn’t want to make it sound like she was leaving him because of his outburst, so she sat in silence for a few moments. “Erm, I need to go home and change my clothing. It’s been a few days since I’ve done my washing too, so I’ll be back later. Would you like anything bringing? I could go to Feldcroft and bring you your own clothing maybe?” Silence answered her. It felt as if somebody was strangling her, she knew she needed to give him some alone time, maybe staying here over night with him was suffocating him, he couldn’t tell her to leave him alone, perhaps this outburst was from her being overbearing. Somehow she knew it wasn’t, she was fooling herself thinking that. She had seen the odd looks he give her sometimes, those dark looks were entirely alien on her brother’s kindly face.

Sebastian chose not to answer Anne. The anger had come on so fast it shocked him. He stayed under his fleece as he wiped away his tears, his emotions yet again out of control. That wasn’t surprising for him these days, fear arrived unexpectedly, which turned into irritability which turned into anger so fast. He was angry, frustrated, scared, tired, too alert and restless, all at once, it made his head hurt. He knew he had a short temper and was prone to snapping at people around him when his emotions were heightened, but something had changed in Azkaban, those feelings were so much stronger now and he wished they weren’t. What if the Dementors had changed him permanently. He lay there considering that for a second, was he really himself anymore after everything he had been through? Lashing out at Anne, the one person he loved the most, made him so ashamed of himself. She had maybe done something really bad to get him out and here he was, acting like a brat. He would say sorry to her when she came back, if she would even come back after that. “See you soon. I love you.” Came her voice and then the door opened and closed.

Outside the room, she collapsed in the seat and covered her face in her hands. Anybody would act like her brother in his circumstances, he would never hurt her normally. Yes, Sebastian wasn’t himself right now. He had not been himself even before Azkaban, so how long could she pardon him with this excuse? Her arm was still feeling like it was on fire, she had not checked on it since that surge went through her. “Anne?” Came a woman’s voice, she looked up and seen a face she had not seen in a long time. “Professor!” Anne greeted her old deputy Headmistress. Professor Weasley was surprised, but secretly very happy to see Anne Sallow here, for she had been Sebastian’s only visitor up until now. “I am here on Hogwarts business.” Professor Weasley lied, even Anne couldn’t help but notice in her arms was a bag filled with sweets. “- and I thought Sebastian would like some sweets, they are from Garreth’s Christmas hamper, but he won’t even notice they’ve gone, he has a mountain worth of sweets already. Is Sebastian okay for visitors?” She asked. “I don’t think he wants visitors right now Professor. He’s a little tightly wound, to put it mildly. I should speak to his healer, he may need his calming draught slightly earlier, he’s – beyond – irritated right now.” She lifted her arm to show Professor Weasley the bad burn on her arm, it was shaped like a tree. “Please don’t tell them, they’ll tie his arms back down and that makes him worse.” “I shan’t” Professor Weasley said, although that mark on Anne’s arm made her think twice. She took out her wand and healed it for the girl. “Thank you.” Anne said. It had been so long since Professor Weasley had seen Anne Sallow, and the difference depressed Matilda. She looked pale and much thinner than she had ever seen Anne look. Right now, both the Sallow twins looked like they were in need of many a hot meal. However, Professor Weasley smiled as to not let any of her thoughts show. “Would you like to visit the tearooms?” She asked Anne. “We shall leave Sebastian to cool down a little.” It was nice to catch up with Anne again, there was some of the light in her eyes that she used to have. Out of Ominis, Sebastian and Anne, it was Anne who was the true ringleader of their little gang when all three of them at been at Hogwarts and it was Anne who often caused the most mischief. Ominis acted as their ears and Sebastian was always ready with his large puppy brown eyes should they get caught. Professor Weasley had lost count of how many times she had the three brought to her office, sometimes as late as after midnight, often with Sebastian smelling most unpleasant, Gobstone fluid still running down his face, Ominis retching at the smell of him and Anne standing there proudly, announcing boldy she had won all their games as if it had been daytime. Time and time again, Professor Weasley had to remind them (Over Ominis’ loud retching, the poor boy appeared to have heightened smell) that Hogwarts had a curfew they were meant to observe and vowed to them that she would find their secret meeting place and confiscate their Gobstones if she were to ever walk in on them in a classroom, but she never did find them. She looked, many times, but would only find them in the corridors, often around the Defense against the Dark Arts rooms. Often she would send them to bed, with Ominis holding a small handful of Potpourri and Sebastian in need of a bath. After they were gone, she aired out her office from the lingering unpleasant smell and laughed to herself. It was lovely to see such daring and bold students, they should have been in her house. Professor Weasley could not connect that bold young girl to the young woman who sat across from her now. Anne sipped tea, the china cup almost the same shade as her skin, white and void of colour.

“I’m staying at the holiday house of a girl who was in my dorm. Her family recently brought a small home by the seaside for holidays, she said I can stay a little while.” Anne answered when Professor Weasley asked where she was living now. “It has all the anti-muggle charms, I am very safe, even on my own.” Anne placed her tea down, normally women usually did not live alone in Muggle society, in their own world it was very different. A Muggle her age on her own would alert the Muggle peacekeepers, it was very strange to Anne knowing they would try to take her away if she was seen too many times to be alone. “And there’s Feldcroft too, I can go back there when my friend needs the house back.” Anne said “I can look after Sebastian back in our home, he’s going to need somebody to take care of him and our Uncle left the house to us in his Will. Sebastian can live there with me and our hamlet will help us, I am sure Mister Ndiaye will trade our chicken eggs for medicines or food, and- .” Professor Weasley put her own cup down. Her smile made Anne stop talking, it was a sad sort of smile. Anne didn’t just look unwell, but it was as if she was fading out slowly, colour by colour. She was just about able to care for herself, but in no state to look after Sebastian.

“Sebastian may need care you are not able to give him.” Professor Weasley said as gently as she could. “I know, but he’s my brother. We have nobody else but each other.” She said. “He can’t stay here Professor. He needs me. They’re planning on keeping him here until he’s well enough by their standards, but what if he never meets their standards, what if they just keep him here forever? The healers want to send him to their long term residents' ward, so he can be with people in a similar situation. Nobody in there has been to Azkaban, they are just people bitten by beasts or got an illness from a beast. It’s a locked room, he will never get out, it will be just like locking him back in a cell again. He doesn’t need that, what he needs is just somebody to remind his stubborn head to eat. He’s been in Azkaban, he needs sunlight and fresh air, some home comforts, something familiar. Keep him in a room and he won’t get better, I know my own twin more than these healers do.”

Professor Weasley could see it all clearly, so could Anne but she didn’t want to admit it to herself, she could not look after Sebastian. The newly healed burn on Anne’s arm just confirmed that. There was something not quite right with him. Not just the fact he wasn’t talking very well, but his mood swings were so violitle. One moment he would be okay, the next he was gripped by panic. Just as fast he was staring at nothing, at something only he could see, then screaming, or weeping. He was eating food, not eating food. He would sleep only to refuse sleep, the other night it took a sleeping drought to get him to rest and then he tried to fight it to stay awake. “What about keeping Sebastian at Hogwarts, can you do that, Nurse Blainey is there, she could look after him?” Anne asked. “Hogwarts is a school, Anne.” Professor Weasley said, she had been thinking of this herself, but had ruled it out. “Sebastian needs somewhere quiet. He will never get a moment’s peace at Hogwarts, not with students going in and out when they get hurt. Then there’s those horrible news reports in the Daily Prophet that have been written about him and your friend Ominis. He won’t be left alone to rest there. Also a school isn’t the place for him, it would be distressing to both the students and to Sebastian. He really needs witches and wizards who know how to look after him.” Anne drank the last of her tea and poured more from the teapot. A server came to their table and placed sandwiches down on the table. “I am trying everything I can to help your brother” Professor Weasley reassured Anne, moving the plate to her so she would eat something. “If he gets better, I will see he is enrolled back into Hogwarts. If he doesn’t, then we shall think about things.”

Inside though, Professor Weasley felt just as lost as Anne. She had sent owls to the Headmaster about Sebastian’s status as a student over the holidays. So far Professor Black had ignored her letters. Before term had ended, all she got from him was a “I’m on it!” in his fake joyful tone, but nothing so far had changed. The Ministry was still withholding Sebastian’s wand and only Black could alter Sebastian’s statues from ‘Expelled’ back to ‘Enrolled’, not even she had that power, however the man in charge was dragging his cloak. Only with Sebastian reenrolled at school, could Sebastian finish his studies to become a qualified wizard.

Then, even if she whipped Professor Black into action right this very second, there was the question of if Sebastian was even well enough to attend school. It was December of his sixth year, the new school year was only nine months away, that wasn’t a long time at all. It was correct what she said, the school was not a place for a sick young man, but then where? If he stayed here until he was well again, Anne was correct, he may never reach a state of wellness to be released from St Mungos. Some residents never were released from here for various reasons and sadly, ailments of the mind were a common reasons for somebody to remain in St Mungos for life. “Let’s first wait to see if Sebastian makes a recovery, if not I will make sure he doesn’t remain here for life, even if I have to smuggle him out myself, I shall.” Professor Weasley poured more tea. “In the meantime, I am going to send Headmaster Black another owl. He can’t ignore me forever.” Professor Weasley felt she should ask, this nagging feeling within herself was not going away. “Anne.” She started, keeping her voice very low now. “If you need to talk to me about things, you can come to me. Don’t sent owls, it’s better to talk in person, but if there’s something else going on that you and Ominis Gaunt can’t talk about it, I’d rather know, so I can protect you, your brother and Mr Gaunt. I have seen things up at the school and at the Ministry, things that don’t make any sense to me. Are you, Sebastian or Ominis is any danger?” Anne clearly avoided her eyes here. “No, Professor, of course not.”

They parted ways after that, Anne’s stomach pains had returned, making her return to her home faster than expected, so Professor Weasley went to see Sebastian. Talking to Anne had convinced her more than ever that something was going on. When she walked in, she seen Sebastian had managed to bring the book she had gotten for him onto the bed, it was resting against the bars on his bed. He was sleeping with his head resting against the page, but the moment Professor Weasley sat down, his eyes snapped open and he looked up. “Are you enjoying the book?” Professor Weasley asked him. He nodded, although this was the first time he had opened it. “Pro-fess-or” He said quietly. Professor Weasley smiled. “It is good to hear you talking again.” She informed him. “And I have brought you some sweets to go with the others.” She glanced at the sweets still there from what Ominis has brought him. They hadn’t been touched much and Professor Weasley wondered if he had eaten any of them, or if it had been Anne eating them. She stayed a little while, in that time Sebastian tried to read a little of the book as Professor Weasley told him about her Christmas with her family, then he slept. She placed a marker in his book so he could return to his page and then placed it on the side of his bed. She noticed the Slytherin blanket was half over him, so she straightened it out.

She thought for a moment about the twin’s parents, Mr and Mrs Sallow had been Hogwarts Professors, they worked alongside her. They were amazing minds, were immensely popular with staff and students alike. They had doted on their twins, bringing them to the castle for the staff to meet. Professor Weasley had met them years ago, when they both could fit in their parents’ arms. Sebastian with his wavy hair standing everywhere and big brown eyes, Anne looking pristine, the apple of their parents’ eyes while Sebastian was more wild, playing with dungbombs. It hurt to see both of their children, the last of the Sallow line, looking so sickly. As Sebastian slept, Professor Weasley took out a book of parchment. She would send a letter to Professor Black every other day now until he answered her.

Professor Black. It is Professor Weasley again, I have sent you previous owls but you must not have received them, my faith in my owl’s abilities has always been in question, perhaps you are on holiday somewhere? When my owl eventually tracks you down, please return him with an update on Sebastian Sallow’s statues as a student of Hogwarts. I understand it’s the holidays still and you shall be with your family and not at the castle, but I am sure you understand how time is of the essence. I shall send this owl out every other day, I am sure he will find you soon! Be sure to inform me when he finds you, overwise I fear I shall be sending him when he doesn’t need to fly. Professor Weasley.

If there was Witch Weekly’s award for the most proactive against stubborn members of the Black family, she should win it. Before she left, she placed the book of parchment on the side with a note for Sebastian.

Sebastian, please feel free to use this to write the words you can’t say Professor Weasley.

Saturday Morning Coffee

Good morning from Charlottesville, Virginia! ☕️

Ms. Gracie didn’t boop me until 5:30 this morning. I’m grateful she allowed me to sleep in. If I could get her to let me sleep until 6AM that would be amazing.

The Hybrid React Native/Native app I’m working on is really starting to gain steam. We’ve shipped some new features and have a couple more big ones coming at the end of next month.

I’ve learned a lot about integrating React Native with native code and my learning continues. I mentioned before I hope I can work on this app through, at least, the end of the year. I know we can also improve on native performance, app UI spit-n-polish, and improve the network API do more with fewer calls. It’s been an amazing project!

Hope you enjoy the links.

[Justin Fenton and Giacomo Bologna • The Baltimore Banner(https://www.thebaltimorebanner.com/community/transportation/key-bridge-collapse-YDNMRSLMDREE7ADUZJQFQJ3WDA/)

The Francis Scott Key bridge collapsed early Tuesday after being struck by a ship, and rescue teams were searching for multiple people believed to have fallen into the Patapsco River, a Baltimore Fire department spokesman confirmed.

A horrible tragedy for the city of Baltimore and the families of the six men who lost their lives. ❤️

I hope they’re able to learn from the collapse and build in additional safety measures to help avert an accident like this in the future.

Also, why don’t tug boats escort these big ships into the harbor? I’d venture to guess it’s about the money?

A lot of people want to make a website but don’t know where to start or they get stuck. That’s in part because our perception of what websites should be has changed so dramatically over the last 20 years.

I’ve had a blog since February of 2001 — that’s 23 years! — and I’ve never been this inspired to build my own blog completely by hand. Inspired.

I don’t want to state the ass-numbingly obvious, but nobody wants to sit through more than half an hour of “content” before the nearly three-hour film they paid too much to see. It defies all logic to expect people to fork over more to be bombarded with ads and trailers they can’t mute or forward through the way they’d be able to do at home — where they can also sit on a comfier couch and eat better food.

YES! I don’t remember where and when this happened to us last but it was so frustrating.

Apple’s Phil Schiller Works 80 Hours a Week Overseeing App Store

Major control freak vibe. Who knows if it’s even true but Mr. Schiller should be enjoying some of that wealth and let Apple evolve.

Of course this is why I’m not rich. I don’t have that kind of drive anymore. I did my 80 hour weeks in the early 90’s and 2000’s. I’m over it. I don’t mind putting in extra hours here and there but when it’s the norm to work 60 hours a week, well, that’s just stupid.

The winning bid for the up-for-auction Anchor Brewing Company was supposed to be announced at the end of January, but things appear to be delayed, and a company rep tells us “a winner most likely will be announced in late April.”

This still saddens me. Anchor was an iconic San Francisco brewer who made good beer. As with everything else I suppose you have to change with the times or fold. 🍺

It’s also the only way we’ll see Justice applied to TFG. He’s terrified he’ll be tossed in prison without access to his social network, rallies, hair care products, well done stake with ketchup, and orange makeup. 👮🏿

If you want to know why Truth Social looks like so much other Fediverse software, it’s because it runs Mastodon with a Soapbox front-end.

I remember the hubbub around Truth Social using Mastodon. It’s nice we’ve defederated it. He wanted a captive audience of wing nut MAGAs anyway.

How fast will the newly minted public company come tumbling down? I’d call it meme stock of the year.

Sam Bankman-Fried maintains that his crimes were victimless and resulted in zero losses, and therefore warrant only six years of imprisonment. Prosecutors argue that 40–50 years are justified.

I heard Scott Galloway on Pivot say Bankman-Fried didn’t deserve the 25 years he got. Why not? Rich people never want their kind held accountable.

Bankman-Fried is young. Don’t worry, he will be young enough when he gets out to commit fraud again.

A few readers have asked about my speculation that Apple, along with the other DMA-designated gatekeepers (none of which are European companies of course), might reasonably pull out of the relatively small EU market rather than risk facing disproportionately large fines from the European Commission.

Gruber has an interesting take but I think it would be so much better if Apple just did the right thing and opened things up for developers to “side load”, create their own stores, and allow different payment methods.

Keep on providing awesome hardware and the platform developers love and let us help you grow the platform even more.

Look, I’m a nobody who doesn’t make much on the store. If I’ve made $2,000.00 on the store since 2009 I’d be shocked. I’ll continue to use the App Store and abide by the stricter rules because it doesn’t affect me directly but a lot of Indie Devs could benefit by paying way less than Apple’s 15-30%.

That opinion and $10 can get you a mighty fine drink at Starbucks.

But the same politicians don’t seem ready to acknowledge the root cause of these problems. A bill awaiting signature from Governor Ron DeSantis, who dropped out of the Republican presidential race in January, would ban offshore wind energy, relax regulations on natural gas pipelines, and delete the majority of mentions of climate change from existing state laws.

Florida continues to prove it’s the state with the biggest number of wack jobs in the union. Once that waterfront property starts disappearing folks can just sell their homes and move, right Ben? 🤣

With Threads starting to federate, there has been push back in corners of Mastodon, with some server admins blocking users from @threads.net entirely. I think just about everyone has complicated feelings about Meta, but I think this kind of move only harms users of the Fediverse.

I’m going to follow a few few folks on Threads because I enjoyed following them on Twitter and they don’t have, and seemingly won’t have, Mastodon accounts.

If it turns into a shit show I don’t have to follow Threads accounts. Easy peasy.

First and foremost let me state that this post is not about excluding people from the IndieWeb community. I am not here to be a gatekeeper. Rather, I am trying to call attention to a disconnect I see in how I’ve seen the IndieWeb movement promoted and how the IndieWeb community presents itself.

I agree with a lot of this piece. The IndieWeb is still very immature as a product platform but everything is there to create great experiences. It’s up to us to do it and do it in a way that’s easy for the masses to use.

Evaluating the Ups and Downs of Our 2023 Weight Loss Journey

New Post has been published on https://eazydiet.net/evaluating-the-ups-and-downs-of-our-2023-weight-loss-journey/

Evaluating the Ups and Downs of Our 2023 Weight Loss Journey

Hey there, fabulous readers! Can you believe we’ve made it to the end of 2023? It feels like just yesterday we were making New Year’s resolutions and vowing to conquer the world. Well, fast forward to now, and while world domination might still be on the to-do list, let’s take a moment to reflect on a journey that’s near and dear to many hearts – the epic rollercoaster that is the weight loss journey.

  I am still scoffing my way through Christmas chocolates, but I am already planning next years weight loss journey. Trying to work out which diet plan I will try next, will this one work, is it time to beg the doctor for weight loss surgery? Every year I go through the same questions in my head. But in my heard I know I make the same mistakes every year. 

So grab your favourite cuppa, settle into your comfiest chair, and let’s chat about what worked and what, ahem, didn’t work in our quest for those health and fitness goals.

The Great Salad Experiment

Ahhh, salads – the unsung heroes of every weight loss journey. Remember those days when you pledged to eat salad for lunch every day? Let’s be honest, we all had that moment of leafy-green enthusiasm. But did it work? Did it leave you feeling like a salad superhero, or did you find yourself crying into a takeaway by day three? The struggle is real, my friends.

Reasons why eating salad everyday will never work:

Blandness Blues: Pledging to consume salad every day can swiftly lead to a monotony of taste. The repetitive crunch of lettuce and cucumber might leave your taste buds yearning for more exciting flavours.

Lack of Satiety: Despite being packed with fibre, salads may not provide the same level of satiety as a more substantial meal. This could lead to increased snacking between meals, potentially sabotaging weight loss efforts.

Social Salad Struggles: Committing to a daily salad routine may pose challenges in social settings. Whether dining out or attending gatherings, the limited menu options for salads might make it difficult to adhere to the plan, potentially leading to feelings of exclusion.

Craving Catastrophe: Depriving yourself of a variety of foods may intensify cravings for less healthy options. This could result in succumbing to the allure of indulgent treats, undermining the initial intention of a healthier eating plan.

Gym Membership or Museum Pass?

Hands up if you signed up for that shiny gym membership in January with visions of chiseled abs and bulging biceps dancing in your head. Now, fast forward to December – how many times did you actually step foot inside the gym? Don’t worry; we won’t judge. Sometimes, the thought of hitting the treadmill can be less appealing than binge-watching your favourite TV show. It’s all about balance, right?

  Financial Drain: Paying for a gym membership that goes unused is essentially money down the drain. It becomes a recurring expense without the corresponding benefit of regular exercise, making it a financial strain on your budget.

Guilt and Frustration: The knowledge that you’re paying for a service you’re not using can lead to feelings of guilt and frustration. It’s a constant reminder of unfulfilled intentions and can negatively impact your mental well-being. This can lead to overeating! 

Missed Health Opportunities: The primary purpose of a gym membership is to support your health and fitness goals. If you’re not using it, you’re missing out on the opportunity to improve your physical well-being and overall health, which defeats the purpose of investing in such a membership.

Difficulty Canceling: Some gym memberships come with contract terms that make canceling a more cumbersome process. This can result in continued payments even if you’ve decided to stop using the gym, adding an extra layer of frustration to the situation.

Inflexibility: Unused gym memberships often highlight a lack of flexibility. Life changes, such as a new job, relocation, or health issues, can disrupt your ability to use the gym regularly, making the fixed payments seem less justified.

Weighing In or Weighing On

Ah, the scales – the truth-tellers of our weight loss saga. Did stepping on the scale feel like a red-carpet event, or did it become a game of “how creative can I be in avoiding that cold, hard truth”? It happens to the best of us – the scale, sometimes a friend, sometimes a frenemy.

  Supportive Sidekick: Scales can be a friend when they serve as a supportive sidekick in your fitness journey. Tracking your weight periodically can help you monitor progress, celebrate achievements, and stay motivated on your path to better health.

Reality Check: The scale becomes a trustworthy friend when it provides a reality check. It’s a reliable tool for assessing whether your lifestyle changes are positively impacting your weight and overall well-being.

Accountability Partner: Scales can act as an accountability partner. Regular check-ins can help you stay mindful of your health goals, encouraging you to make informed choices about your diet and exercise routine.

Motivational Milestones: When the numbers on the scale align with your goals, it transforms into a friend offering motivational milestones. Achieving a target weight or seeing gradual progress can boost your confidence and keep you inspired to maintain healthy habits.

Frenemy Fluctuations: On the flip side, scales can be a frenemy when they exhibit natural weight fluctuations. Factors like water retention, hormonal changes, or the timing of your last meal can influence the numbers, creating a misleading impression of your overall progress.

Overemphasis on Numbers: The scale turns into a frenemy when there’s an overemphasis on the numbers. Placing too much importance on weight alone may lead to unhealthy habits, obsession, and emotional distress, transforming the scale into a source of anxiety rather than a tool for motivation.

One-Dimensional View: When viewed in isolation, the scale offers a one-dimensional perspective on health. It fails to consider other crucial factors like body composition, muscle mass, and overall fitness. Relying solely on the scale may result in an incomplete understanding of your well-being.

TOP 20 Weight Loss Fails

Lack of Consistency: Inconsistency in following a healthy diet or exercise routine can impede progress.

Unrealistic Expectations: Setting overly ambitious or unrealistic weight loss goals can lead to frustration and disappointment.

Poor Diet Choices: Consuming a diet high in processed foods, sugars, and unhealthy fats can hinder weight loss.

Lack of Physical Activity: Inadequate exercise or a sedentary lifestyle can slow down metabolism and impede weight loss.

Skipping Meals: Skipping meals may lead to overeating later and can disrupt the body’s metabolism.

Emotional Eating: Using food as a coping mechanism for stress, boredom, or emotions can contribute to weight gain.

Lack of Sleep: Poor sleep patterns can affect hormones related to appetite and metabolism, hindering weight loss efforts.

Medical Conditions: Certain medical conditions or medications can cause weight gain or make it difficult to lose weight.

Genetic Factors: Genetic predispositions can influence metabolism and the body’s ability to lose weight.

Hormonal Imbalances: Imbalances in hormones like insulin, cortisol, and thyroid hormones can impact weight loss.

Overreliance on Supplements: Depending solely on weight loss supplements without a balanced diet and exercise may not be effective.

Inadequate Hydration: Dehydration can be mistaken for hunger, leading to unnecessary calorie intake.

Stress and Cortisol Levels: Elevated stress levels can trigger the release of cortisol, a hormone that promotes fat storage.

Underestimating Caloric Intake: Misjudging portion sizes and underestimating calorie intake can hinder weight loss progress.

Lack of Support System: A lack of a support system, whether from friends, family, or a community, can make the weight loss journey more challenging.

Unhealthy Snacking Habits: Constant snacking on unhealthy foods can contribute to excessive calorie intake.

Ignoring Emotional Factors: Emotional factors like depression, anxiety, or low self-esteem can impact weight loss success.

Not Addressing Bad Habits: Failure to address underlying habits that contribute to weight gain, such as binge eating or mindless eating.

Overreliance on Fad Diets: Relying on short-term, restrictive diets that are not sustainable can lead to rebound weight gain.

Lack of Patience and Persistence: Weight loss takes time, and impatience or giving up too soon can undermine progress.

As we bid farewell to 2023, let’s celebrate the victories, big or small, and laugh off the moments that left us scratching our heads. Remember, it’s not just about the destination but the journey itself – the salads, the gym escapades, the experiments, and the scale dramas. Here’s to a new year filled with new opportunities to be the best, healthiest version of ourselves. Cheers to 2024 – may it be a year of balance, joy, and perhaps a few less salads.

⚠️TW Vent, Trauma Dumping⚠️

I saw a post talking about depression and antidepressants and it made me realize we are so much more depressed then we thought. The post was light hearted in talking about an interest OP hadn’t been perusing in months, and it made me realize, we used to have a lot of interests that we pursued. But now we don’t do any of them. Most of our time is spent either at work or in bed, finding pleasure in the different activities I can do from my phone.

So depression is probably worse than we originally thought. Starting antidepressants would probably be a next good step towards bettering our life. But to do that we should go back to therapy, which is scary. To start with we’re now bodily an adult, so everything is on us. We’ve never picked a therapist before, always having our parents setting up our appointments and finding different therapists when things didn’t work out with the last one.

The other problem is that the last time I went to a therapy visit, my therapist told me that they didn’t think talk therapy would work for us. We didn’t know how to take that, partly angry because we’re trying to better ourselves and being told that it’s not working by the person who was supposed to be helping us hurt, and sad because if this didn’t work we didn’t know what else to try. So I’m nervous about seeing a therapist again, but I know it will be good for us in the long run.

And then our mind stumbles through the idea that if we’re going to therapy anyways, why not look into a therapist or psychiatrist that could help diagnose us with DID. Not our top priority, but something we’d like to have.

Then we convince ourselves we’re faking because our life wasn’t that traumatizing.

We were a child raised by children who had been raised by children. Our father wasn’t around, too busy working. Our mother, without realizing it cared for herself more than the children she birthed. Her love life always more of a priority then mine or my brothers happiness. But that’s a whole mother can of worms for a different post at a different time. Our older brother was emotionally and a bit physically abusive, which our brain tries to play off as a sibling dynamic, even when we continue to be haunted by some of the things said. We were sexually harassed? Assaulted? By our uncle and older brother on multiple occasions. The father of our younger brother was far more intimate then he should’ve been with us, and much more violent then he should’ve been with our older brother. We’ve battled with autism, and not being understood because of it. More fights revolved around food and misunderstandings, then issues a child should actually be punished for. Countless nights falling asleep at the dinner table, exhausted from crying, over a plate of food we couldn’t convince our mind to eat. Being snapped at after asking the millionth what if question, filled to the brim with curiosity, but then being asked to put a lid on it. We were always viewed as smart and mature for our age. We took that as a compliment not knowing that we missed out on being a kid, on being immature. We made changes to improve our quality of life, only to be fought against by family who didn’t believe in the changes we made, by parents who thought this change meant a loss. Eventually we were driven to live with our older brother, where the abuse continued. I love my brother. Fights could start as conversations, slight disagreements on how things were handled, suggestions put delicately so as to not upset the other. Most fights dealt with him nearly killing his cat, some about how he talked and treated his wife, and the dumbest argument was over us skipping a meal. We were sick, the effect of our older brother sick with Covid, spitting in our face after a fight. We lost our best friend of over a year to disagreements over our lack of emotions and their lack of self care. Now we are haunted by the question of if we are toxic because of the relationship or if the relationship itself was toxic. We lost our animal companion of 9 years and our other animal companion of 5 years the night after Christmas. We had to put our mourning on hold to go get another Covid test, to see if I would finally test negative. We convince ourselves we don’t need these people in our lives, but when it’s quiet we can’t help thinking about them. When they’re around we can’t help wanting to be around them more, and missing them when they leave. But when they’re gone, the pain remains.

I don’t know what to write anymore so I’m just gonna leave this as is. I’m in a piss poor mood now

~ IN THE STILLNESS ~ I believe, think, know and feel that being quiet in this very moment can transcend all the noise and tap me into the stillness of peace.  I am ready, willing and able to listen to that still small voice within all of us and while in this silence all is well.  I know, when, where, how and why to access this energy of all that is and to fish as needed to bring in the ideal answers from the Universe as my life becomes more richly blessed as a result, I am tranquil.  I am asking in all languages and throughout all time lines and so it is. Wishing you and yours that the rest of your life will be the best of your life, and that you'll make a little progress each and every day.  Have a blessed and fruitful 2023 love to all.

TGIWednesday... My favorite day of the year!

TGIWednesday News

I tell everyone my favorite day of the year is January 2nd and they always ask, “Oh is that your birthday?” and I’m thinking, nope, that’s when all this general chaos and extra fancy holiday anxiety will be over!  LOL.  Now I enjoy the holidays don’t get me wrong, but by about now, we’re all a little ugh, grrrr and paying for all that holiday cheer.    My next-door neighbor is a Good Joe and highly efficient with everything having never been in the military.  About 11am Christmas morning their Christmas tree, stripped clean of ornaments, tinsel, and lights, lay lifeless out on the curb for trash pickup!  By contrast my military son, on the other hand, had four Christmas trees in his house and they’re probably still up and flashing lights 24/7 as you’re reading this.  What’s the point?  Find your groove, figure out what works for you and do what makes you happy NOW.  Live like there is no tomorrow and one day you’ll be right.  Ok, 2023 let’s do this and get moving!  Now is the time, today is the day, if you have not taken or finished our Mastery Course for My Liquid Fish™, Change Made Simple™, make it a simple goal for 2023.

~ IN THE STILLNESS ~ I believe, think, know and feel that being quiet in this very moment can transcend all the noise and tap me into the stillness of peace.  I am ready, willing and able to listen to that still small voice within all of us and while in this silence all is well.  I know, when, where, how and why to access this energy of all that is and to fish as needed to bring in the ideal answers from the Universe as my life becomes more richly blessed as a result, I am tranquil.  I am asking in all languages and throughout all time lines and so it is. Wishing you and yours that the rest of your life will be the best of your life, and that you'll make a little progress each and every day.  Have a blessed and fruitful 2023 love to all.

“Still, we believe we can always improve, and I think anyone who has been coming to Uncle’s for years will like the changes we’ve made.” Randal went on the say that the inspiration for changing the name Uncles to U bar is to highlight the bar’s historic attraction – the people in it.

Best BBQ Pellets and Meat to Match

Are you new to the world of pellet grilling and want to find the best pellets to match your meat? Or, are you looking for a way to take your pellet grilling to the next level? We created our BBQ pellets to be the very best BBQ pellets, in terms of how they’re made, their purity, and how they burn. We offer our pellets so that you can have a great grilling experience. Our pellets pair exceptionally well with meats and more.

Plum Pellets = Sweeter Smoke The sweet smoke that comes from our plum pellets works exceptionally well with pork ribs. If you’ve been looking for a way to improve your pork ribs, that’s a great way to go. Additionally, they can do wonders with beef brisket and even chicken as well. Due to that sweeter smoke, they can pair with so much more than just meat = they’re an excellent pairing for salmon as well. To get even more out of your pellet grilling, we offer our “Knotty Rub” as well.

The Versatility of Almond Wood Our almond wood pellets provide smoke that’s nuttier than you might think. Though it may be nuttier, it’s also milder, too. So, when trying to list what meat best pairs with almond wood, it’s so versatile, to answer the question almost sounds like a cop-out: it goes with everything. No, really. If you have some kind of meat or food that you want to cook in your smoker, you literally cannot go wrong with our almond wood. We’ve cooked it ourselves, and we’ve had satisfied customers reach out to us who used it for beef, chicken, turkey, and even pork, tri-tip, mutton, and more. Almond wood really does go with anything.

50/50: The Best of All Worlds Even though the smoke is mild, that nutty flavor of Almond wood doesn’t go with everything. By that same token, some aren’t looking for a pellet grilling experience that’s as sweet as the plum pellets are. For these folks, we offer our “50/50” blend. This is exactly what it sounds like: it’s our customers’ favorite to pair the two. With this, we’ve paired the two of them perfectly, so that you’re getting the strengths of both types of pellets.

Getting the Best BBQ Pellets Without Leaving Your Home Now is the time of year when more people are grilling, having folks over to grill on the patio, the deck, the yard, and more. That said, we know how frustrating it can be to put together everything you need for the cookout, only to realize that you forgot to get the BBQ pellets. So, to make it easier, you can have these pellets delivered right to your doorstep by ordering them online.
