Are we in the clear yet? in 2023
Still very much in my Swiftie era. It’s been so long since I wrote, I can’t even remember what it was about. Alex’s birthday? Who knows. Well I have Britney Spears’ memoir next to me, an LGBTQI...
Three kids and a puppy in 2023
Quick-is update. Bought a new car a few weeks ago, I went with the Mazda CX-9. Won a bunch of safety awards, it’s a little bigger than my old car. I’m happy with it. Hershey trip was fun. Prob...
Good news/Bad news in 2023
We’ll start with the good: Alex turned 7 last week. SEVEN. How? Time flies. This is his last week of school and we have no summer plans. No one took us up on babysitting, which seems bizarre...
Diagnose me in 2023
Honestly not looking for a medical diagnosis because I should see a doctor for that. HOWEVER. I do need a vent sesh. I have been in GI hell since Wednesday. Started with bloating and just kind ...
Snow on the beach in 2023
Well. It’s been a week. Or two weeks. However long since last I wrote. I’m on vacation this week. Stay-cation while Alex is on spring break. Last week at work was… insane. Our medical direct...
I know who I am, but who are you? in 2023
Last week was probably my worst work week since joining hospice. Every single day there was drama and bullshit. Even on my day off, I was getting calls and emails about the BIG drama. Which I a...
Take me to a deserted island, pls in 2023
Ugh where to start. We’re fine. Everyone is fine. Craig and I are just totally exhausted. We adopted a puppy two weeks ago. It was a smooth process. Meet the dog, fill out application, get in...
I'm tapping out in 2023
How the fucking fuck is it so hard to adopt a dog? WHY is it so hard to adopt a dog? I know I said I’d take a break after all the crap with Archie. Do I feel emotionally ready to get another do...
Not me gagging over Rihanna’s halftime show (will explain later) Not me DoorDashing Panera for lunch even though it’s less than 5 minutes from my house. Not me ignoring all the things I should be...
Money talks in 2023
I think I mentioned last entry that Craig finally got his raise and promotion, along with a new work vehicle. So his head was way up in the clouds this week. And it’s deserved, he’s been “promi...
A little more loco than usual in 2023
Welllll it’s been a weird week. Craig is bothering me about getting another dog ASAP. Archie hasn’t even been dead a week, can we just chill on this for a bit? I cannot emotionally attach mysel...
Everything sucks in 2023
We had to put Archie down yesterday. It absolutely broke my heart to make that call and I think I’ll probably be traumatized from that decision for awhile. I wasn’t going to get into the details...
The Archie Show in 2023
Where do I even begin?? I’ll try to be as concise as possible. We went to Brooklyn two Saturdays ago to adopt Gonzo. When we arrived at the shelter, they told us he’d been adopted out the night...
Never heard a damn thing back from the shelter. Now the dog’s not on Petfinder or their website. I’m pissed. Like at least reply back or send an email like, “Thanks for your interest. Unfortun...
Refresh. Refresh. Refresh. in 2023
I’m sitting at my kitchen table and the chair has a wonky spring so it’s making all these funny noises with every little move. Annoying, yet oddly charming. I’m avoiding charting because I’m jus...
Itchy brain in 2023
You know the expression “I woke up and chose violence?” This morning, I woke up and chose anger. I just woke up and was immediately pissy and enraged. It’s not been a pretty day. I outright to...
2022 wrap up in 2023
Alex stayed up until almost 11. I was dozing by 10 lol. Happy 2023, everyone! 1) What were your biggest challenges in 2022? -Saying no. I was trying to make a good impression at the new job an...
It’s been a long time since I wrote in this book. When last I wrote (in June), I’d just completed my Goodreads challenge of reading 20 books this year. Now I’m at 37 books for the year, so that...
Today, I completed my 20th book of the year! So I’ve completed my Goodreads Reading Challenge for 2021. Yay me! I supposed I should edit my goal but I honestly didn’t think I’d be reading this...
Heavy hitters in Bookish
Whew! I’m crushing my 2021 reading goals! I’m 10 books ahead of schedule lol. I told myself that after I finished my library books, I’d return them and just get through some books I have at ho...
Some finishes in Bookish
I’ve finished off a few books since last I wrote. I’m currently reading 3 books, which is not good because I can’t focus lol. They’re all good and I have to rotate through them, yet I want to r...
Underlining? in Bookish
New book! About BOOKS! I dunno how to format this so that book titles are underlined (as I was taught in the olden days of elementary school!), so I’ll just put the titles in bold for now, mmkay...
