I did physio at 8 am for my concussion this morning and my cognitive functioning is comatose-like.

I feel like I’m floating in fog.

Did physio for my groin and now going to lie in bed and moan about it.

Ready for any power outage the forecast may bring.

Got the missus’ birthday gifts yesterday evening and today I spoiled myself with an upgraded ereader and stylus pen.

I love physical books but they cause me discomfort when reading.

Also, I’m very nearly out of shelf space for physical books.

I found some more book titles I want to read. But my tbr pile is massive. Also, missus wants to do a tiny library in our front yard. I told her it would hurt my feelings if I had to put MY books in it.

Kids are playing Coup with their dad and I’m just settled in with my book. Waiting for food to be delivered.
No cooking this year - focus on recovery.

Lying on the couch counting my blessings in a quiet, undecorated living room. No gift exchange extravaganza, no abundance of decorations. A fitting end to a challenging year where love and perseverance took center stage.
God is good. So are most people. Merry Christmas.

Yo, a hip flexor tear is no joke man. It just seems to get worse by the day. Also, my smart self booked physio “within walking distance” 🤡.

Well this is 🐴💩
If you’re wondering why your friends in academia are a little on edge right now, it’s because an eighteen-year-old who hasn’t done the reading, doesn’t look at the assignment, and has does no critical thinking skills more complex than “because I think it’s in the Bible” can literally end your career

The University of Oklahoma has removed an instructor who was accused by a student of religious discrimination over a failing grade on a psychology paper in which she cited the Bible and argued that promoting a “belief in multiple genders” was “demonic.” https://cnn.it/4b6g3rd

Suggested reading by one of my favourite profs. Looking forward to melting into the couch and reading as much as my concussed brain allows.

So, at the end of November when I torpedoed headfirst down the stairs I apparently also managed to tear my hip flexor. Wondered for weeks why I could barely raise my leg without having to use my hand to help it along. 🙄😭

My gorgeous wee lass.

In one of my winter courses you can read a science book, write a two page opinion about it, and get extra credit.

Like, darlin’, come to papa!

So, I ordered two of the books on the list that seemed super interesting.

Cheeky stole papa’s spot.

Wee lass went to training again today and did great! She’s such a precious little thing. Love my Martha baby.

Folks I’m so antsy. I want to go to the bookstore with the goblins but they’re all still in bed. Do I use the vacuum to get them up?

I’ve been in bed most of the day nursing a migraine.

I am so over this concussion bs.

Has anyone played and finished South of Midnight with the accessibility settings? I bought the game months ago but haven’t had time to sit and play through it. Kind of curious to watch a playthrough with accessibility settings on.

I just got featured in a blog and reading the words “Palestinian Canadian Artist” was just a different kind of special. Honoured for the ability to tell the story of my land and people through art and extremely grateful for the support I’ve gotten especially locally
