Posted December 5, 2022 I wondered when someone was going to mention it. That's Sleipner. Share this post Link to post

Posted December 5, 2022 He's usually depicted as a grey horse even though the Norse favored sorrels (red) horses with flaxen (yellow) manes. He was black in his brief cameo in the Thor movie. The grey, though, I think is a nod to his ability to travel between the nine realms, including the realm of the dead. He has a slight association with death - 8 legs = four pallbearers, his half sister rules the land of the dead, and the dead must walk through a colorless world to reach her realm if they were not chosen to be taken into Asgard.

Posted December 6, 2022 Good morning, CPA! *sets out coffee, teas, juices, apples, brownies, and toast with jam* Bright and sunny. I get to sort Precious Moments figurines today. I've been using lots of incubates on the AP eggs... and have barely made a dent in my reds. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 6, 2022 morning. rainy day here, and of course i need to go out later i ordered a book for my mom, and i selected pick-up in store. tuesdays seem to be the only day i'm not doing anything right after work, so today is good for the pickup. the little town has street parking that you have to pay for (even though i'll be like 15 minutes at most?). it's a pay-by-plate, so it's not like i can find a meter that could still have some time left so i downloaded the meterfeeder app and we'll see how it goes. i have a dragon growing up tonight, but i might wait until tomorrow to breed her because of the time creep.....

I'd love to get a small tree and just put green ornaments on it for a Grinch tree but... alas. I'm lazy. lol Pictures! Yesterday, at Taco's appointment, she fell asleep in friend's dad's jacket. So cute! Spoiler And Christmas tree/Taco admiring it. xD Spoiler The ornament I showed with the white clay is a piggie footprint one. We have all 6 piggies, and all of the cats, and when the new one arrives, we'll have Taco's done soon! ^^ They're quick, easy and adorable! Those little blurry feeties belong to Thistle pig, Friend's smallest girl pig. Share this post Link to post

Posted December 6, 2022 I think some of them (from 2020? or 2019? I can't remember) were from a kit from Hobby Lobby, but the others were just made with normal clay (it air dries, and it's perfect). Share this post Link to post
