Just a quick intro post to say hello!

I'm a mid-40s woman in tech and security engineer. I'm neurodivergent, genderfluid, and my pronouns are she/they.

I tend to use Mastodon for the things I love and enjoy, and I'll include a few of them in the hashtags.

Sharing a pic of me wearing my comfy Dustrial hoodie. In case I look familiar, I have migrated from elsewhere on the Fediverse!

I moved Matilda from her usual spot on the worktop, because I'm roasting a chicken in the slow cooker, and it seemed tactless. She seems to have settled down to some web browsing.

*Finally* finished my baby blanket! Very snug timing, because I'm driving up to see that branch of the fam this weekend. 😅

Still need to block it out and hopefully have it at least mostly dry on the trip up. It's been over a decade since I've done a blanket and I'm pretty sure I didn't block those out, so I'm following a guide. 😬 I think I had in my head that it wasn't worth blocking acrylic? Don't know if that's true, but this one is cotton.

I'm in Appledore in Devon, to give a talk later about Blue Machine and I've just discovered that they have a KNITTED OCEAN outside their church. And this is the Best Thing Ever.

I finished my latest little #knitting project recently, a little fox pouch for holding my meds when I switch purses and bags. I made it on smaller needles than the pattern called for because one of my main purses is smol. ravelry.com/projects/averymd/f…

I have once or twice been caught without my "take as soon as you suspect" migraine meds because I forgot to transfer them from one purse to another. Hopefully just needing to move this little cutie around helps with that.

Roughly 3.5 months after I started it, my #celestarium is finished. It’s huge, it’s magic and it didn’t take nearly as long as I expected. I didn’t work on it for most of the time. But a lot of Star Trek Voyager, DS9, Next Generation, a couple of Lower Decks episodes and a little bit of the Expanse went in there.
