I like neither wings nor football. My cat had the best snack of her life (she didn’t have to share!), and now we’re cracking an ebook in front of the game. She’s asleep on my knee and arm, purring softly. Touchdown?

She makes starting a wannabe stressful day easier — and harder. 🥹

Just called my husband by my own name, twice. I think this day is quite done. 🥔 🍴

Thinking about Magritte tonight. The Treachery of Images, etc.

Diving back in to edit something I wrote/compiled a couple of weeks ago, and I think I need satellite GPS ... haha, sigh.

What is “unconditional discharge” and why isn’t it trending?

(Ducks out. Fetches fresh water for cat. And a snack.)

Oh right, politics … I’m not sure anything good comes from meeting with Trump. I don’t know what he does to people, but they never leave the way they entered.

I started seeing my current therapist in 2019. I told him TODAY that his office temp back then was too warm for perimenopausal me.

This is everything you need to know about me. Probably.

So much has happened since I last posted here! I follow the shiny happy people types. For now, I'm here and on Threads. Dibs to the first platform that allows me to format text with italic. 😜

Scheduled my next Covid vax for Friday … earliest available nearby as of yesterday. I had a pneumonia vax last month, and have a flu shot scheduled in a few weeks. That leaves RSV.

All I need now is rabies and distemper.🙃

I overedited a poem into flatness last night. I hate when I do that! Happens when I’m coming from an unbalanced place. I should know better.

I’m perennially catching up with life — started today with scrubbing this little one’s water fountain and sweeping her area.

Picture is a perennially accurate “before” shot.

At least one mosquito and a housefly are on the loose in this house, so I have set traps and all non-trap lights are off.

Come at me, summer.

And goodnight. 🌙

Zipped outside to do some yardstuff before storms … this sweet thing meowed from my “Caturday chair” the entire hour — just to be sure no human otherbody napped while I worked.

So this one time, I said to my very EX ex-spouse, Wouldn’t it be great if we had an actual TV stand. And he built a boxy structure from some old 2x4s, plywood, and for extra flourish, shopping cart wheels.

That’s it. That’s the skeet.
This is genuinely embarrassing

I’m a bit stressed lately:

Late lunch was a plum, half a huge slice of sourdough bread folded over two half-slices of Muenster cheese that were stuck together in the package.

❔After eating the plum, the sandwich tasted like which:

>Cake
>Mustard
>Sourdough bread
>American cheese

After I heard her voice, …

Rest in Eternal Peace 💔
