Tiny Complaints

Our neighborhood is being tagged a lot more right now, and petty/nuisance crime is up in general on my block. Someone broke into the vending machine in the parking garage and took all the food and money, someone tipped over a ton of plants on someone patio (it’s not even ground floor!) and so on. I feel bad for the security guard at the medical clinic across the street- every morning around when we get up I see him checking for graffiti and painting over it before they open. It’s COLD out. Poor guy. (Considering setting up our nursery cam to film their building and see if we can get footage, but there would be SO much footage to review, since our area gets lots of foot traffic).

It is sleep time (nap) and they are doing construction bangs. Tomorrow they are planning a fire drill during nap

I always seem to crave whichever junk food is not currently in my house. (Example: right now I have crunchy Cheetos. Craving kettle cooked chips.)

Ugh, that happened to me last week. You have my deepest sympathies.

The times my body wants to nap do not sync up with our daily routine so even having a surprise day off does not get me a nap. Harrumph.

My washing smells of smoke. I have to wash all over again.

Maybe wasn’t the smartest idea to “meal prep” banana walnut chocolate chunk muffins before leaving for 10 hours of work on a day that Sweaty was home from work and had a big run planned (fewer than half the muffins remain).

Tonight I made chilaquiles, a go-to delicious, easy dinner. And it made me throw up. Tragic.

I was not approved for a credit card even though my credit score is in the high 700s. I really wanted to get the sign on bonus to offset the cost of a jogging stoller.

I made a giant batch of soup for the week’s lunches and it’s triggering my acid reflux pretty badly :expressionless:

Delicious thai food did not stay in my stomach.

Woke up to an email that was forwarded to me by my mother, and it was from a pseudo-science “Doctor” warning about how nsaid drugs are deadly and anti-inflammatories should never be consumed, and here buy our “special” anti-inflammatory supplement instead it works just as well! Ugh. I know she means well, but she has no understanding of real chronic pain, and the fact that some turmeric supplement is not going to get me out of bed on a flare up day.
On a day where I woke up in intense back pain it was the last thing I needed to read. :roll_eyes:

A low stakes, generic interaction on my family group text resulted in me being reminded, once again, just how racist and xenophobic my family of origin is :disappointed_relieved:
