🔮 What are you doing right now? 🔮

I facet gemstones as a hobby/extra income/meditation. That's the bottom of a marquis cut garnet
That's so cool! And you did that just this morning?
I'm exceptionally clumsy so any kind of delicate work is always really impressive to me

I did the first rough cut last evening, then refined it, and added another tier of facets this morning.

Trust me, there are MANY mistakes and stones I've had to re-do or lost completely.

It requires hyper-focus and I can usually use it to stop the anxiety and quiet the noise.

It's something I started about the same time as I found out I was going to be divorced a year or so ago. It has been good to do something so productive and beautiful instead of self-destructing.

Healthier coping mechanism than many others I reckon.

I get massive anxiety too so I totally get what you mean about quieting the noise. It's great that you've found something you're so good at
 
Meal planning for the week. I’m trying to be self-disciplined when it comes to planning and then grocery shopping to plan.
