I'm starting to really understand why my grandpa was so surprised at how well I turned out. She wasn't this bad when I was young, I don't think. She's not this bad when my dad isn't around. I wish she could self regulate.

Finally lost my shit over the yelling over a tiny bit of sand in the sink and basically said my relationship with her really fucking important but I cannot handle the yelling and toxic negativity. Eat and chill the fuck out.

It's noon and I've asked them both to not yell already. Did boomers never learn to communicate in any way that wasn't snide and loud?

My parents keep giving me random shit to take home.
Zen tangles books (sweet), some sage salt, a fire blanket (cuz I don't have one), gems and books for partner's kid, and I'm talking then out of sending home the bird of the hour clock that is broken and doesn't make noise anymore

We've gotten to 6pm and they're elevated but at least not arguing over anything but the sodoku. I sobbed while holding my brother's ashes last night. It took 37 years for us to share a room without bickering? Peak morbid humor.

Welp turns out that she actually listened to me and wants to learn DBT skills. Here's hoping I can give her a new hyperfocus.

Take 1 she's panicking about everything and nothing and yelling. I listen to her vent, validate her emotions and eventually just tell her she's having an anxiety attack and it's not us, it's her nervous system thinking it's under attack but she's safe. She muttered something but stopped yelling

Gov. Gavin Newsom said on social media that California National Guard was being taken over by the federal government “not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.”

My kiddo went camping and I wanted to make sure they could use the sleeping bag. So they decided to take a nap. The dog approved.

I saw a TikTok about white ladies not being afraid of anything after all of the male firefighters were scared of a snake, and they sent in the woman who had problems. I thought to myself, "but it's just a snake" ...then realized I'm a crazy white lady, who thinks well fed big snakes are cool.

One way I trick my depression is planning something fun each month to look forward to, & then telling myself I have to stay alive for that. Next month is a comedy show, then in June an improv show. I told my therapist it was silly, & she told me it wasn't silly if it worked. #mentalillnessawareness

Pretty sure my 70lb dog believes he's a cat. He tries to play with the cats, he brings them toys (that they don't appreciate) and cuddles like them. Our little 7lb black cat swats his tail as he walks by, and he jumps so high. He just wants love! And treats.

One year I couldn't find the birthday candles, and my kid wanted to blow out a candle so she ushered in a new year by blowing out my Head Bitch in Charge candle from @maliciouswomenco.bsky.social
Much like the candle, no apologies were made. Just memories.

A Lord of the Rings themed party for my roommates birthday was absolutely so much fun to plan and execute. So much fun I managed to get almost no pictures. I bought these posters on Amazon and now they are going to be permanent decorations because I love them!

I took a chocolate making class and ended up making whimsical narwhals. I realized that without pupils the eyes looked really creepy. It was super fun, 10/10 would recommend. My kiddo has loved eating it all.

January marks the anniversary of my brother's death. I hate it now. And it just continued to get worse this year.
To combat it, give me positive things that have happened or are happening to you. Tell me positive, share some optimism.

I just finished The Girl Who Talks To Ashes by Rachel Rener, and absolutely loved it. It's on Kindle unlimited, and it was a quick read, mostly because I read it almost entirely in one sitting. #RachelRener

I'm *really* curious about these interior and exterior PUPPIES. I guess those discounted rugs will help with your interior and exterior puppies.

My partner's kiddo asked if I was coming to spend the night, so obviously I had to come watch them play video games. I'm not sure my ego is up to having my ass handed to me in Mario kart yet so I watched this time. #autism #polyamory #village

Yesterday my car locked my only keys inside of it while running. Today another bomb got dropped in my lap. I'm convinced January has it out for me. FML.
