Bad at posting and dropped off the face of the fediverse for a good 6 months, but excited to be making a book for my 4 yo starring him and based on his current favourite book series. This is a picture of the cover I've made so far. Seems to warrent a post :)

the title at the top of the picture reads dragon masters and library of the book dragon, with a forest bleeding into some of the title underneath, a single tree on the left side with a kid reading a book at the base of it and another pointing to a dragon flying in the air. There is also a small stream and some rocks in the foreground at the very bottomof the picture

Somebody please tell me if I did alt text correctly or tell me what I'm doing wrong if I didn't... I have never managed to get it right 😞😳


Remembering that time my friend made a meme for me based on my personality and I feel called out

An adorable cat with the words "You think I'm cute" at the top and "I'm sorry" at the bottom

Also, did alt text work? Can anyone let me know?


@silverwizard woke up feeling better so now he's doing computer things and I'm learning A computer screen with words on it on a black screen or in Grub (a bootloader), if that makes sense, with a rainbow backlit keyboard in front of it and two hands typing
Putting the image description here too incase the alt text didn't work. Please tell me if it worked πŸ˜….

Okay, I am very excited about this so I will share it...
I just got a backlit rainbow keyboard, here is a picture
it's a rainbow backlit clacky keyboard on my lap


I made a wand! Out of a piece of driftwood I found in the summer on the beach. And just like that the snow was gone!

@silverwizard made Christmas muffins but our lil 3.5 year old got a little heavy handed with the green food colouring and poured in a bottle of it

I did some #Art tonight, and while I feel like I'm no professional, I still like sharing

Dabs of paint in different colours with two flowers and a bird drawn overtop

Planning a scavenger hunt with the kids this morning with some treasure chests I found at the dollar store

I have 4 chests (1 bigger then the rest to end it off) and I drew a picture to point my kids in the right direction

This is the first pic I drew to start them off

Hand drawn rough image of a house with a deck with the words: Outside on the deck

My kids can't read yet, but I still wanted it explained in words to get them thinking about these things


I love making playdough with the kids, because you can do any colour trivially (at least with the food colouring we have πŸ˜…) and it makes so much! We were out of cream of tartar but the internet tells me vinegar works well in replacement
2 bowls of playdough - bright purple and green


Help! It's only 7:40


Giving out these tubs of cotton candy this year so as not to use chocolate. Hope the kiddos love it.... my dream is to be the house in the neighborhood with the best candy and Sean's is to have big sized candy that's he feels it's a cool thing as part of the infosec community

40 tubs of different flavoured cotton candy


Finally all set up for Halloween and these pumpkins are done! Only took me an hour and a half πŸ˜…

One pic of a car, one of a spider web with a dangling spider beside, one of a pumpkin and the last is a silhouette of a cat's face


Sponge Art


I love exploring art techniques with children, especially toddlers. It's probably my favourite activity to do right now..

Today we painted sponges and dabbed them on the page to create a stippling effect

I decorated a cake for a toddler!
