I am having friends over on Thursday to celebrate being home, there will be charcuterie and sangria and board games but there's still boxes everywhere and I just can't be arsed.

I have been trying to muster up motivation every day and it's HARD. I am so burnt out. tired of my life feeling it's in constant upheaval. I should be happy to be home but I am tired of unpacking. it feels like all I've done for the past two and a half years.

it feels so good to be back in my own cozy bed 💤 😌

yay, house is ready to move back into! 2 months is a lot better than 2 years. tomorrow we're gonna be busy moving furniture around. I hope I can actually sleep there tomorrow night. 😍

currently reading First Person Singular by Haruki Murakami. haven't read a Murakami book in a looong while. he was always good in short story format.

my husband will be like "I left you some toilet paper" and this will be the toilet paper

getting kitchen tiled today. fuck yeah! one step closer to getting back into my house. paid for all the flooring, and getting an estimate for the rest of the house hopefully today too. and if I'm lucky, cabinet guy will come thru this week as well. still hoping we're back in time for Christmas 🤞

thank goodness for him.

Stepsister by Jennifer Donnelly was a seriously good read. it was my second read by that author, the other being Revolution. that was just okay, but this was great. really well written and rich with fairy tale lore. badass, too. 5/5!

it's really hard not to just hate my life rn. only it's been an ongoing thing for literal years now. I just can't sometimes.

today my husband and I were talking about how icky it'd be to date someone a lot younger. (I'm 40, he's 2 years younger).
coincidentally, I also saw via social media my 43 yr old ex is dating a 26 yr old.
honestly, this tracks.

current read: Stepsister, Jennifer Donnelly. really into gritty re-tellings of fairy tales lately & this is about Cinderella's step-sister I think? not totally sure tbh but I think the moral is going to be "stop making all ugly people villains they need love too!" or something.

finished reading the lesbian farmer book. it was okay. cute, but not as good as I hoped it would be. I gave it 3 out of 5 on Goodreads. 🤷‍♀️

I asked my husband to download Sims 2 onto his gaming computer. I haven't played this game in wellll over a decade, and I still say it's the best one in the franchise by a long shot... and I may have spent, like, 4+ hours today playing it and all I did was build 1 house.

Did you all know if you see someone being trash on this platform you can report each offensive post individually and likely get them banned? Let's have a case study shall we?

every year my mom makes budka bread. it's a family recipe my grandmother used to make, and it's only made at Thanksgiving and Christmas. people liken it to monkey bread, but it tastes like no monkey bread I've ever had. absolutely delectable.

currently reading: this book about lesbian farmers. it's pretty cute.
