Today's poem was an ode to my hands. Losing use of them is one of my biggest fears 😅 so this might have been inspired by the fact that I was supposed to see a doctor for possible carpal tunnel today. (appt shifted to next week)

I like yesterday's sonnet about clocks; today's poem was a quick haiku offering of "I ran out of time." Still enjoying my poem-a-day challenge for the month I gave myself.

I should stop doomscrolling. And you should read my poem! Second in my effort to do a poem a day for October! It's about the most cliched topic. Love? No, don't be silly, it's writer's block.

The youngest, watching me play games with husband's family online and hearing the associated banter:
"Why don't you give your king a heart?"
"Nope, I already gave my heart to daddy."
"So you don't have a life anymore?"
No, because I died laughing.

The kids started joking about feeding the toy turtle the 4-y-o got Grandma for her birthday. If it wasn't fed, they told us a turtlepocalypse would come.
Never one to leave well enough alone, or for that matter discourage silly worldbuilding in my kids..

With the demise of Joann's, I'm going to share a few online resources I've found. It's by no means exhaustive, but hopefully it helps folks find what they need. 🧵
Joann, a destination for generations of lovers of crafts projects for 80 years, is going out of business and shuttering all its stores
Fabric And Craft Retailer Joann To Go Out Of Business, Close All Of Its Stores
The company said it expects it will take a “number of weeks to complete our final sales.”

Today my kids told me the "cleaning fairies" would help with the chores in exchange for popsicles. Later, I gave the kids popsicles but told them to pass them on to the fairies.
The 6-y-o told me "Oh, they don't need them." I had to tell her we DO NOT reneg on deals to the fae. Or else.

I'm preparing to delete my account because someone used it to buy iTunes cards and when I said it was fraudulent they denied my claim and said it was in line with my usual charges even though I only use it on rare occasions to send friends money. It's so insecure.
PayPal is updating their ToS to let themselves give your data to merchants starting in November and they're certainly banking on people not knowing to opt out, SO to opt out before they start:

Today at bedtime my 6-year-old told me her koala bear family is stargazing together, looking up to find the constellation of their grandma who is dead and that's all they have left of her.
I find it sweet, melancholy, and mildly bemusing.
(I'd like to point out both of her grandmas are fine.)
