Thank you!! I’ll measure my space but this might be a solution for me, too.
I put up a solar motion sensor floodlight between appointments today. That’s been on my list for a while.
So that when your nosy neighbors actually start coming over to talk to you instead of just yelling across the yard the light comes on?
I’m on my way to watch star wars.
Cue opening music.
Thanks. That’s in my brain now.
My vacation to parental units has been pretty good. My parents are pretty cool in that they share my liberal leanings. My grandmother seems reasonably well. I have gotten a lot of sleep the last two nights.
I have a new therapist who is easier to get to, validated all my shit and says she’s looking forward to working with me. I didn’t realise how depressed I have been this year until I felt hopeful after the appointment.
I may have made a new cuddle friend, AND I caught the bus and will be on time for my date.
At last, I have overcome the dishwashing nightmare that was the saucepan in which I made salted caramel sauce. I feel victorious.
I just saw Rise of Skywalker so now the internet can’t spoil me.
Did you and smacky see it together, apart as vacation prep?
I wrote a couple of song lyrics. Also created a backing track? I think? Some lyrics to run in the background while the verse runs over the top. Feeling very clever.
Sigh… yeah I guess. Ha.
Or when one of their eleven outdoor cats who each weigh about 12-15 pounds runs through my yard the light will go on and give me a small heart attack.
My kid is in a kazoo choir. I just saw them perform and they sounded like a swarm of festive bees.
Ramen and stir fry.
Mmmmmmmmmm I already had lunch but I want both now! Nomz
My tiny victory: just resigned the lease for my current place with no rent increases for two years. Since my income is a little, ah, tenuous at the moment, this is a relief.
I am at the point where I have more in cash savings than I owe my parents for college. My 401k got me to positive NW a while ago, but this actually feels like I’m on the black, since I can pay it off tomorrow (I won’t, I’d rather have an e-fund…)
I have prepared a meal using nothing more processed than tofu or the garlic that comes chopped in a jar.
Soon I will eat 5 tablespoons of it
Local butcher makes really tasty sausages and I remembered to buy a ton of meat from them before they close for the next fortnight.
I dug out more Morning Glory and managed to salvage a Cast Iron Plant, since all the dirt fell off its roots when I pulled it out. Yay bonus plant!
Also, got a workout from digging around in the dirt.
