Tiny Complaints

Hm, yeah, maybe in some sort of sweet cheese dessert? Maybe add some sugar if the cheese is just coconut flavored but not actually sweet?

I’m leaning towards feeding it to the dogs, but just a little at a time so they don’t kill me with their farts.

I cannot focus today.

I’m so so thankful I’m still working at all, albeit with reduced client load. But… it is absolutely pouring down rain and chilly outside and I don’t want to go walk doggies.
Not at all.

I want to go gather all of the doggies and bring them into my tiny home so that we can watch movies together and snack.

I don’t have any kitty clients right now or I’d include them in this fantasy

I feel like the pets would all approve

I want to go on a walk, except I’ve also hit the point of not understanding the purpose of outside. Also, quarantine is making it hard to be a no screen time parent. And then I think…okay, screen time hurts their little developing brains, but do I really know which parts of development it hurts? It’s probably fine, right?

Also, my baby is on a 1-1 schedule for his “night” time and spends from 11-1 trying to live in my neck crease, periodically sobbing that night is over.

My work is doing a step challenge with prizes, but since I ran out of any cleaner that is iphone-safe, I don’t want to bring my phone with me on walks since I can’t sanitize it. I don’t have a fitbit (which I guess would also need to be sanitized?). Hmph.

Just put your phone in a pocket, let it count steps and dont touch it until you’re home and washed up again.

Kid-3 didn’t get a $1,200 payment and there seems to be nobody to contact about it except a “Get My Payment” tool that says Kid’s information doesn’t match their records. :grimacing:

I was driving and the news made me cry so I had to pull over. Then it started snowing. Then I got lost in the suburbs. This is why the WHO says to stay home.

Books about happiness tell you to take happiness assessments both before and after the book and assume that you implemented parts of the book as you were reading it. This does not really work if you read it over the course of two days.

Maybe that’s why I’ve never really connected with any self-help type books. I read them too fast to get anything out of them.

You probably already looked into this but was kid-3 claimed as a dependent? We discovered that dependents don’t qualify even if they filed their own taxes (kid had filed 2018 as a dependent, hasn’t yet filed 2019)

Nope, I haven’t claimed Kid for 2 years now.

:+1: Hopefully it’s a random glitch that gets fixed soon

Everything. The world.
I went back to my baby group online to see if it had picked back up and if my friends were back. The ones doing the best are all drinking heavily. So… yeah.

Neighbor is baking lots of bread and offered us a loaf. It’s too sweet to use for salty things like tapenade, and too dense to use for oil and vinegar. I guess I’ll try making it French toast next? :thinking:

I bit the bullet and bought some shares a bit higher priced than I wanted, and now it dropped. I guess the victory is that it’s savings and I don’t really think too much about it as it should balance out?

Right. You’re in this for the long term, over which you’ll win.
