Althea felt nervous as she headed into the bathroom upstairs.
She’d been feeling unwell at the conference and she'd had two moments when she’d had to hurry to the toilet to vomit. She’d also been sick a few times in the past couple of days and due to the strain Thomas had been under, she’d not told him about her suspicions yet.
But if the test came back positive, she’d go tell him right now.
The worse part was the five minute wait for the test to develop.
Oh-! Am I-?!

C:#I'm good! I still have the cough but I also got a new scarf#I'm still thinking about buying window colors as well but I am waiting if that is also just because of the cough medicine#I can't believe it's already been a year since I have moved! last year I was doing everything here for the first time#and now everything is happening for a second time! that year was both very long and also happened very fast#our floor in the “office” my father wanted to install still is not completly done but he threw up last time he tried#he did not threw up because of the floor but because every time he does a home renovation project he drinks 3 liters of Cherry Coca Cola#we are trying to not make him drink 3 liters of Cherry Coca Cola but he doesn't want anyone else to finish the floor I think so we just do#not mention the hole in the floor#have a nice autumn day friends!!

The full Moon that happens nearest to the fall equinox (September 22nd or 23rd) always takes on the name “Harvest Moon.” Unlike other full Moons, this full Moon rises at nearly the same time—around sunset—for several evenings in a row, giving farmers several extra evenings of moonlight & allowing them to finish their harvests before the frosts of fall arrive.
• While September’s full Moon is usually known as the Harvest Moon, if October’s full Moon happens to occur closer to the equinox than September’s, it takes on the name “Harvest Moon” instead. In this case, September’s full Moon would be referred to as the Corn Moon.
This time of year—late summer into early fall—corresponds with the time of harvesting corn in much of the northern United States. For this reason, a number of Native American peoples traditionally used some variation of the name “Corn Moon” to refer to the Moon of either August or September.

The name Mabon comes from the Welsh/Brythonic God Mabon Ap Modron, who's name means "Divine/great Son", However,there is evidence that the name was adopted in the 1970s for the Autumn Equinox & has nothing to do with this celebration or this time of year.
• Though many cultures see the second harvest (after the first harvest Lughnasadh) & Equinox as a time for giving thanks before the name Mabon was given because this time of year is traditionally when farmers know how well their summer crops did & how well fed their animals have become. This determines whether you & your family would have enough food for the winter.That is why people used to give thanks around this time, thanks for their crops, animals & food
Some believe it celebrates the autumn equinox when Nature is preparing for the winter months. Night & day are of equal legth & the God's energy & strength are nearly gone. The Goddess begins to mourn the loss she knows is coming, but knows he will return when he is reborn at Yule.
Related festivals:
• Sukkot- Is a Torah-commanded holiday celebrated for seven days, beginning on the 15th day of the month of Tishrei. It is one of the Three Pilgrimage Festivals on which Israelites were commanded to make a pilgrimage to the Temple in Jerusalem. Originally a harvest festival celebrating the autumn harvest, Sukkot’s modern observance is characterized by festive meals in a sukkah, a temporary wood-covered hut, celebrating the Exodus from Egypt.
• Mid-Autumn festival- September 17th
Is also known as the Moon Festival or Mooncake Festival. It is a traditional festival celebrated in Chinese culture, similar holidays are celebrated by other cultures in East & Southeast Asia. It is one of the most important holidays in Chinese culture; its popularity is on par with that of Chinese New Year. The history of the Mid-Autumn Festival dates back over 3,000 years. On this day, it is believed that the Moon is at its brightest and fullest size, coinciding with harvest time in the middle of Autumn.
During the festival, lanterns of all size and shapes – which symbolize beacons that light people's path to prosperity & good fortune – are carried & displayed. Mooncakes, a rich pastry typically filled with sweet-bean, egg yolk, meat or lotus-seed paste, are traditionally eaten during this festival. The Mid-Autumn Festival is based on the legend of Chang'e, the Moon goddess in Chinese mythology.
• Thanksgiving- This is a secular holiday which is similar to the cell of Mabon; A day to give thanks for the food & blessings of the previous year. The American Thanksgiving is the last Thursday of November while the Canadian Thanksgiving is celebrated in October
• The Oschophoria- Were a set of ancient Greek festival rites held in Athens during the month Pyanepsion (autumn) in honor of Dionysus. The festival may have had both agricultural and initiatory functions.
-Amidst much singing of special songs, two young men dressed in women's clothes would bear branches with grape-clusters attached from Dionysus to the sanctuary of Athena Skiras & a footrace followed in which select ephebes competed.
Ancient sources connect the festival and its rituals to the Athenian hero-king Theseus & specifically to his return from his Cretan adventure. According to that myth, the Cretan princess Ariadne, whom Theseus had abandoned on the island of Naxos while voyaging home, was rescued by an admiring Dionysus; thus the Oschophoria may have honored Ariadne as well. A section of the ancient calendar frieze incorporated into the Byzantine Panagia Gorgoepikoos church in Athens, corresponding to the month Pyanopsion (alternate spelling), has been identified as an illustration of this festival's procession.

i found a green glitter pen in the parking lot, barrel cracked by tires, drawing wilted stars on the back of my hand until it died or friday we will drink strawberry fanta hurricanes and talk about the storm
i'll finish the bag of potatoes and the last of the cabbage today. i try to buy the smallest cabbage in the bin and i eat it every day but it still lasts for such a long time
i'm looking forward to buying collards tomorrow to eat with the big pot of black-eyed peas i made yesterday
i continue to be obsessed with the lines i find in lost abandoned broken pens
i wish there was a word for the type of poetry i want to read. i have found a few pieces of it lately and it feels so good when i do. sometimes i resort to rewriting the ones that are almost what my heart wants and i thank the poets for their patience with my trespass

(Unseelie) Faerie Court Twisted Fate skin concept
My take on what the Unseelie court might look like. I hope we’ll get some dark/goth faeries too and it’s not gonna end up looking too similar to the Seelies :)
#I don't want the eyes to be a winter court only thing#I was going for Autumn court with this but I don't know if this gives autumn vibes#I now see TF as a representation of the beginning of winter#also the shortest day of the year#Bc he's a bit more night themed I guess#He's an outcast anyway so it's fine if he doesn't look like any of the courts#I'm currently deciding if he got banished or if he fled bc he knows some secrets about the queens that could cost him his life#I like that second option bc it's different from his base lore while still resulting in a similar situation#Just wish the skinline bio lore wasn't so vague about that secret surrounding Karma LMAO#Twisted Fate#TF#tobias felix#skin concept#League of Legends#Faerie Court#fairy#faerie#wings#LoL#my art#OH TO LIVE IN A REALITY WHERE HES IN THIS SKINLINE LMAO RIOT PLEASE IM BEGGING YOU ITS THE ONE THING I ASK#That is#IF you finally decide to put some fucking effort into TF skins#Either that or give me Stargazer

Moments of today. 9.30.24
Waking up feeling love and loved.
Lyric poetry of Caullus.
Alexander’s eristics.
Working through iImplicit differentiation; second derivatives are challenging.
Another interesting presentation on Greek uncials.
A nighttime run and workout.
Moments of connection and love.
October falls. As the night fades, the air beckons October for its arrival. Its presence hangs in the moisture, its announcement is rustling in the leaves.

“Everything ok, darling?” Thomas asked as his wife walked into their bedroom.
Althea paused before she spoke. She doubted he would be upset at the news, but why was it so daunting to say the words aloud?
“Umm, the past few days I’ve been feeling a little under the weather-”
“-but according to the test I just took, it means I’m pregnant. We’re going to have a baby!”
“You’re pregnant?!” Thomas asked, almost shouting the question. In an instant he’d scooped her up in his arms and was kissing her cheek.
Althea smiled “Yes, I’m pregnant.”
“This is amazing news!” Thomas said, delighted. “What a day I’ve had, cured and now finding out we’re going to become parents at last!”

Outfit rundown: I'm wearing...
handmade leggins
thrifted purple gilet
fast fashion cardigan
fast fashion jersey dress
handmade bag (not made by me, got it through a swap)
[image description]
Picture 1 and Picture 2 are very similar. Amy (me) is a young, fat, white woman with glasses and long brown hair (worn in a braid slung over her shoulder in these pictures). She's wearing pink leggins with lots of flowers allover them. Her green long-sleeved jersey dress is also covered with big pink-and-cream-coloured roses. The pointy dusty purple gilet breaks up the pattern matching as well, as does the maroon coloured cardigan she's knotted around her waist. She's wearing a light sand coloured braided flower crown with pale rose coloured flowers on the crown. Tan booties complete the look.
She's lounging comfortably and confidently on a big slap of rock, hidden under a canopy of trees. It's autumn but the leaves are still brightly green, with the sunlight enhancing their beauty.
In picture 1 Amy is facing any onlookers head on in a confident pose and in picture 2 she's lounging in a relaxed way, hands behind her back and looking dreamily into the distance.
Picture 3 shows the above described woman named Amy standing in a group around a very big tree, reading the description plague which gives the details of said tree. Next to her is another young, fat, white woman with long brown hair - she's wearing her hair open down her back. The other woman is wearing a black long-sleeved dress with yellow ornaments, black leggings and black shoes. The last in the group is a young, fat, white man with short brown hair (but long for a man when you go by society's standards. His hair is long enough to be pulled back into a short ponytail. He's wearing a black short-sleeved shirt, a big black backpack,camouflage-green cargo shorts and black sandals. [/image description]
