Your middle-aged bestie. She/her.
I bundled up and took Pisim for a short walk around the block and a woman shoveling her sidewalk told me I was really brave.

It's cold as fuck out here.

The Don't Cry episode of Gamechanger has made me cry so hard I have given myself a headache.

Anyway, it's a big day. We changed the bedding and put the winter blanket on after living in denial with the summer blanket.

Every time I put my weighted blanket on the bed after laundry, i ask it aloud, "are you square???" And then rotate it three times until I understand where the long side is.

95% of authors are not making a living through book publishing. The public needs to understand this.

we ate all the pretzels so Mojo made some beer bread. He turns into a baker when it gets cold and I love it.
Mojo made soft pretzels and it's going to be delicious with the soup.

I've had a few days off because I worked extra last week, and I have walked the dog every day and it feels like a huge success and sort of a return to myself. My bedroom is a mess and I haven't done laundry or unpacked luggage from travel last week, but the quality rest has been top notch.

Listen, I KNOW grapefruit juice inhibits my SSRIs, but sometimes I let my moods go a little weird so I can have the juice.

Pot barley needs more cooking, but it tastes delicious.
I am making soup from memory for the first time in a few years. Early taste tests are successful.

Got caught in grief emotions by surprise tonight. Just playing video games and having a little cry.

Also sometime in the last twenty years Dairy Queen changed their cookie dough blizzard recipe and I'll eat it, but it's not as good.
