After a long day of work and or errands what do you like to do to ground yourself and get yourself calm once again? I love to read and create different things when I can. 😊

What is your favorite thing to do to ground yourself?

I muri i te rā roa o te mahi me ngā mahi, he aha tāu e pai ana ki te mahi hei whakatū i a koe anō, hei whakaiti i tō wairua? He tino pai ki au te pānui me te hanga i ngā mea rerekē i te wā e taea ana. 😊

He aha tāu e pai ana ki te mahi hei whakatū i a koe anō?

I never put anything like this together, it plays music as well

Last thing I made

Kaore au i whakakotahi i tetahi mea penei, ka whakatangitangi hoki te puoro

Te mea whakamutunga i hangaia e au

Hey! If anyone is in the Houston area could you recommend a place to get haircuts? I'm interested in alternative cuts and fun hair color, I have a lot of hair and I want to get rid of it but I'd like to have suggestions of who to research. (Cat for attention, his name is Porkchop)

Local Advice needed

Hey! Mena kei te rohe o Houston tetahi, ka taea e koe te tuku korero mo tetahi wahi hei tango makawe? Kei te hiahia au ki nga kutu rerekē me nga tae makawe ngahau, he nui taku makawe, a kei te hiahia au ki te tango i tetahi, engari e hiahia ana au ki nga whakaaro mo te hunga hei rangahau. (Ngeru mo te aro, ko tona ingoa ko Porkchop)

Tena koutou mo te awhina

Taku peera parahi tuatahi

This is coconut oil that was melted(left in the car), then when solid again, it formed these shapes. I thought it was cool, so I took a pic.

What do you see?

He hinu kōkōwai tēnei i rewa (i waihohia i te motokā), ā, i te wā i hoki mai ki te āhua pūmau, i hangaia ēnei āhua. I whakaaro au he pai tēnei, nō reira i tango au i tētahi whakaahua.

He aha tāu e kite ana?

He's a work mascot. We do a fortnightly picture of him, to bring a bit of whimsy to people's lives. Here is one of his Easter photos that did not get shared at work this year!

I would want to pick the meteor hammer, even if it gives almost no defense, the offense is overwhelming. Not to mention the beauty in the movements and flow of both the weapon and person

If you could learn and master 1 weapon, what would you pick?

Ka hiahia au ki te whiriwhiri i te pere meteoro, ahakoa kāore e tuku i te tiaki, he tino kaha te whakaeke. Kāore e taea te kī atu te ātaahua o ngā nekehanga me te rerenga o te patu me te tangata.

I have pretty dangley things so I'm gonna buy some hooks tomorrow. I'll update with the finished installment.

I want something above my bed

He mea hangahanga ātaahua tāku, nō reira ka hoko au i ētahi hīra i te rā nei. Ka whakahou au me te whakaurunga kua oti.

Kei te hiahia au i tētahi mea i runga i taku moenga

I had a single picture and idea of a wood burning budget sauna and I made a sketch and built the rest with my mind and tools. And here it is.

Sauna

I whai au i tētahi whakaahua kotahi me tētahi whakaaro mō tētahi sauna pūtea kaika, ā, i hanga e au he tauira, ā, i hanga te toenga ki tōku hinengaro me ngā taputapu. Ānei te reira.

Nothing help makes my day but enjoying some time with my number art painting with a pot of tea to enjoy and some incense.

Kaore he mea e awhina i ahau i te ra, engari ko te pai ki te noho tahi me taku toi tau peita me te ipu ti hei ki te pai me etahi hinu.

Ko taku taimana e pa ana ki te tau e pai ana ahau

Pretty Danglies are up!

Kua piki ngā Pretty Danglies!

Though I haven't played video games since 1998, I dig the art nonetheless. This sour fella was inspired by Castlevania Dracula being a butt

I drew a thing

Ahakoa kāore au i tākaro kēmu ataata mai i te tau 1998, e pai ana au ki te toi i ngā wā katoa. Nā reira i whakaaweawehia tēnei tangata sour e te Castlevania Dracula hei puku.

I hanga he mea

Sometimes as I wonder about the progress of my personality I reminisce about days outside the 9 to 5. When a child could design. An ugly box on a shelf became a vessel for nerdom. A radioshack when it existed could supply the circuits to create. What age do we abandon by indifference our fire to express.

The Tinkering Tick

I etahi wa ka whakaaro ahau mo te ahunga whakamua o taku ake tangata, ka maumahara ahau ki nga ra i waho i te 9 ki te 5. I te wa i taea e te tamaiti te hoahoa. He pouaka lele i runga i te whare putea i riro hei kaipuke mo te nerdom. He radioshack i te wa i noho ai, ka taea te tuku i nga hiko hei hanga. I tehea tau ka whakarerea e tatou, na te kore e aro, to tatou ahi ki te whakaatu.

Te Tīkitipati Tinkering

Just picked some colors for my bed frame. How do we feel

Paint :3

Kua tango noa atu au i ētahi tae mō taku anga moenga. Me pēhea tā tātou e pā ana?

Pena :3

This is example of what happens when I zone out home alone. Add mood music of choice effects.

What others see vs how I do

He tauira tenei o nga mea e tupu ana i te wa e noho ana ahau i te kainga anake. Tāpirihia te puoro i to hiahia e pā ana ki ngā pānga.

Ko te aha e kite ana etahi, i te mea ka pehea ahau

I think I like the way elves look but I like gnomes' sense of humor more.

elves or gnomes

Ki ahau, e pai ana ahau ki te ahua o ngā rākau, engari e pai ana ahau ki te āhua pātea o ngā gnomes.
