I was offline for a week. It was wonderful! Low stress, little to no pain,...felt wonderful, only minor local drama.

Now back on this side, I read the news. Everything hurts again.

I think I want to go back to the woods

@booker.senate.gov just spent 25 hours warning the American public about the illegal and immoral actions of the current administration.
My Congressman, Nick Langworthy, won't even spend _one hour_ in a room with his own constituents.
Who has the moral high ground now?

Welcome to sinus issues hell. It's been lingering for like 2 weeks, nothing horrible. Last 2 days my ear is in pain and it's been radiating to my jaw. Got the good meds finally. Feeling stoned but the pain is lessened. Maybe one more day. Maybe.

Soda bread and regular bread are made. Corned beef goes in at noon

Brunch with husband and kid. Shopping with kid at the mall. She likes to be in public with us. I don't know how we did it. I love her so.

Watch a movie you know really well with her so you can answer all her questions. Who the actors are...what's going on.

Planned on cutting some fabric and sewing. Nope. Heart and mind are not there. Maybe tomorrow

Awake. Heartburn and acid reflux but it was worth it. Vietnamese coffee is so good. Couldn't sleep either because the brain is on overdrive due to everything. Husband is snoring so I opted to sleep on the couch. Proceeded to pull my back muscle grabbing clothes for the morning. Yay.

Boop!

This makes me happy. I am not a big sports fan, but I do like women's Hockey and Soccer. Now we have Rugby which is thrilling to watch. How the hell am I supposed to pick one team? www.womenseliterugby.us

Brain weasels lead to cooking today. Greek yogurt marinated chicken with homemade tzatziki over rice with a side Greek salad and naan. Made rice krispie treats and just prepped bread for the morning.

Trying. Trying to keep my mind on the Summer (Pennsic year). Trying to find the hope. And thanks friend .

I am not okay. Really. My brain is running through every disaster scenario possible. That man will do everything he can to destroy us for his own gain. Trying very hard to not lose my mind over this.

Today may be a nap day.

My dog is not fond of me going into the basement. She will lay at the top looking very sad with her paws just over the stair. My sweet sweet girl.

Omg! Tim got me one for Christmas. I have to try it still.

Same

Today is a struggle. I am going to a wake tonight for someone who passed too soon. We are in the last week before chaos runs the country. My brain has reached a paranoia state again.

My dog. Because she is the best

Except I get to keep my kid as 21, she is way cooler now

He will be missed. I only met him 2 years ago and I am saddened by the news. 2025 can suck it.

I got nothin.

2025 really sucks. And it's day 10. 10!!!

Laying on the couch in the dark. Don't wanna move to turn on a light. And don't make me decide on anything. I have made enough decisions

Doggo has an upset stomach which means going out every hour.... Yep. 10pm, 11pm and 12am. Taking bets for the next outing time.

I giggled way too much at this.

Today's plan... Stay the f home. I did a supply run earlier. House is tidied. Tonight, movies and Legos. I can't people.

I was able to find some family members on FB that I haven't seen in over 20 years. I am glad I am not friends because they would have been blocked, out the space lock, adios! I am not shocked or surprised.

Omg! Me too! I bought 2 boxes, haven't had one yet.

Survived round 1 but still cried. Prepping for round 2. Making Lazy Pierogi for the family dinner.
