Guess who has two thumbs and has officially signed up for her NAUI Open Water Scuba Cert?

This mermaid, right here.

Yay!!!!!

And I'm all connected up and good to go!

I got a fantastic reaction from the rep when I told her why I had wanted a waterproof pump.

The cannulas are a lot easier and less painful to insert than my previous pump, so that's an added bonus!

Mermaiding with diabetes has just got a little bit easier. I'm happy!

I have all of the materials for my new sequin/neoprene tail, and construction begins next week! I'll be starting a thread on the new tail as soon as I get started!

[Neerai]

Today I'm happy bc I told my husband I wanted a mermaid tail... And he is helping me with wich tail to start. And he is taking me next summer to San Sebastian to have my first mermaid bath... And he is searching tutorials all night long to make a neoprene+sequin tail.

He is the most supportive man in the world.

Yesterday I told it to my best friend (a boy from Barcelona), and he said he'll love to carry me to the water.

Today I feel the most loved mermaid in the world. The two boys of my life are really positive with all this mermaid stuff. Thankies, guys. You are my pirate crew

[PearlieMae]

Awww! That's so awesome, Neerai! You're a lucky mer!

Never waste your time with anyone who doesn't believe in your dreams!

My Etsy will FINALLY be active again if not today then tomorrow. It's not for anything mermaid related this time which kinda stinks but hopefully what I'm going to sell will work out. I'm going to sell crochet hats like the white one in these pictures. It may not look like anything special but I've spent weeks creating an original pattern that allows the hat to only be in two pieces (the brim and the main hat) and I can make multiple sizes. I'm doing the final tests on the patterns to make sure they're consistent before I make a listing.

Awyeah! Pokémon beanies!! So cute!!

Sunday my husband took me out to Sushi and to see Doctor Strange. After the movie was over I discovered we had made our first sale in our new Etsy shop!

I am working on a new mermaid top right now and it is looking just like the concept art I made. It isn't done yet but so far so good.

It was my birthday yesterday, and I got a new backpacking stove and headlamp! And I also got a new amp with some money I saved up, every time I play it I can't help but smile.

[Azurin Luna]

Nice! Happy belated b-day

[Takahao]

Thank you Azurin!

I've been having a not-so-dandy week or two, so I'll just keep in mind the happy things:

• I got a new job that pays well!
• I was hired to be a princess!
• Well, two princesses actually—Moana and Pocahontas.
• I mentioned my mermaiding, and they're willing to pay me to be one for parties as well!
• My band caught the attention of an A&R—Someone who scouts for talent for a record deal. He works for Virgin Records and Interscope Records.

What the heck I'll post some stuff
-Finally getting some school things together. Starting my new job, while awesome, took away a bunch of mental energy that I'm getting back
-Been playing a bunch of Pokemon Moon and absolutely ADORE it!
-My first tail came in the mail today! Too cold to swim in it (indoor pools aren't really a thing here x.x) but I have it and it fits (maybe a bit big on the waist though)
-I just ate campbell's soup. Yay

I found this video about making sequin tails, I thought that since it was very helpful to me that it could help other sequin tail makers!

I ordered a new tailskin from Fin Fun and will be attending MerMania 2017! I also opened a little Etsy shop for my metaphysical wares (tarot readings and glass bottle necklaces filled with semi-precious gems that have different healing properties).

There have been some terrible things this year, but I think these things make up for it, at least a little!

I saw it couple days ago and thought it was fantastic and very helpful! I'm sure others will love it too. I'm excited to start working on my tail soon

My dad bought me a new sewing machine for Christmas!!! It is a singer heavy duty 4423, which is what I learned on in my Costume Construction class in college. He won't let me open it until Christmas though. I really need it now though, trying to convince him to let me use it asap!!!
