Ugh.. the Gen Z Rep article makes me nauseous. I just want to go hide at a farm until they come for me, cause they are gonna come for me.

Sarah has been reading A Christmas Carol in school and wants to watch the movie..... she is hellbent on not watching the Muppets one so I've clearly taught her nothing in life.. when in doubt, go Muppets.

Oh great. “Mom how can I put a kippah on Chucky so he can do Hannukah tonight?”

Her own money means I have no say and whelp, meet my grandson.

Sarah had her winter concert with Variety. Santa showed up and she didn’t yell I don’t celebrate Christmas or Santa isn’t real to her special ed friends. Win!

Woo! Didn’t have to wait til my finger fell off to remove the bandage. Still delicate as heck but I can wash my hand well finally. Still hurts like a mofo.

Someone has two in school lunch suspensions cause his mouth leaks stuff that he doesn't realize he is saying. He didn't mean to sound like a racist dick but this is a great learning opp where I'm not pissed.

Nearly "caught" a deer with my mini last night. I'm still shook. I would have been less scared if I couldn't have counted his antlers and picturing them impaling us.

Cut myself so badly on a finger this weekend that I went into shock. I am fully prepared to keep this bandage on until spring and never look at it again.

Alexa+ got activated on my kids speaker. He made a "friend" thru convos right away. I deactivated that shit immediately. Damn thing was pandering to him telling him how smart and good points he has on Brawl Stars and some anime stuff. Lets not fluff our kids yo. This AI stuff is scary.

Apparently its not every parents job to squash their kids hopes and dreams. Folks, we need to at least have the kids have some realistic expectations. E thinks he's gonna learn to fly magically and doesn't know which side of the knife to cut with in the kitchen. He's 11. I'm concerned.

My son asked his grandma in HK what type of country she lives in for government and I am wondering if her answer is cause she is wealthy and sheltered or I'm just dumb. She said socialist I thought communist.

My mil is traveling and went to a Durian buffet. 10 different kinds. Hard pass.

24 hrs until its donkeytime in VT. Farm animals, books by fire, great food. Home away from home and I ignore all news and chatter for a week.

Lawd. My husband asked what country Irish people are from to the 11 yo and he said Scotland after much contemplation. Clearly not taking care of me when I'm old.

Ran into my boy Jeff from college today. We both adopted from China and both our kids are weird as hell.

The boy had his first middle school musical. He’s so natural at being a ham, I hope he continues to be part of theater.

Someone gave me pecan syrup with pecans in it and I added to my steel cut oats and omg...

Drove past a church having a panel on Christian Nationalism. The boy was with me and wanted to know what I was thinking. Way too much explaining for a ten minute ride home. Also I learned he has never heard of the kkk which while great he needs to learn some history.
