If I walk up to my husband while he’s on the phone, pout and point to my shoulders I get a shoulder rub
I harvested tomatoes today from my own garden!!!
Now with ameliorated soil next year, maybe I can get more than 3!
Finally went rock climbing last night after a week of setbacks! Only had to go up to SF to make it happen! Then my dad made us steak!
I used a chainsaw today. It was terrible for my body and I am paying for it, but it was so good for my emotional health.
Chainsaw therapy should be a thing.
I’m getting free entertainment. There is a spider on the wall about four feet above the cat. He is singing it a hilarious little song.
The eensy weensy spider?
I’m home again. Home has many comfy surfaces to sit and lay down, and clean floors, and easily accessible healthy food. Also a pup. Home is great.
I have learnt to get lots of help and how to relax and my body doesn’t hurt any more! It is still recovering, but it doesn’t hurt.
I held a tiny baby and it smiled at me. Repeatedly.
Buying stuff from local people means it turns up in my mailbox within 2 business days. This is awesome.
After over 2 weeks straight of not even being able to hit 6.5 hours of sleep a night, last night I slept 8h8m.
My smaller kid and I are babysitting the electrician’s toddlers so the electrician can go fix a crisis at the airbnb. My kid has assembled what he sees as toddler-appropriate toys: stuffed animals, plastic dinosaurs, and an assortment of his favourite rocks.
I like this kid.
Edit: also a hockey puck.
Finished a project 14 days ahead of schedule. Can I take the rest of the day off?
Tell your boss that I said you could, with pay.
After tasting many different foods I identified foods that the little parasite will let me eat. I will enact vengeance in a few years by making little parasite eat what I think should be eaten.
(tiny complaint… The broccoli soup is delicious. My mouth knows it’s delicious. But why is my body so insistent that it is not food. In fact, why are only carbs food today?)
Overwhelming victory is that when the little one is being very clear about existing (kicking the shit out of me during swimming, refusing food) I feel my anxiety drop a whole lot.
Sat down and did 9 months worth of accounting for the business. Some of which with a squirmy baby on my lap. Victory is mine
Figured out how to implement a thing at work this morning. I thought it would take me 3 days to figure out, but it only took 3 hours. And this majorly unblocked another team, so it makes me look real good around the office in general.
Sent client some quick sketches for her new logo. Victory #1 is that I did not obsessively stalk my inbox for her reply and actually enjoyed my evening. Victory #2 is that the words “perfectly on point” were used to describe one of the options. I love when things work out like this
The floors everywhere except my bedroom are scrubbed on hands and knees clean
