Husband: How did the Steelers do?
Me: Please do not talk to me during this difficult time.

You know how when you’re writing a book and you don’t quite have the scene solid in your head or there is missing research, you just kind of put a hand wave of a placeholder in that spot and move on? That’s where I’m at now. But I’m at the climax and just want to hand wave and… 1/2

If true…holy shit.
GOOD NEWS! Researchers have shown Alzheimer’s disease can be REVERSED- not just prevented. Using a potent neuroprotective compound called P7C3-A20, they found RESTORING balance to a central cellular energy molecule (NAD+) not only PREVENTED disease features but REVERSED them, EVEN at late stages.

I’m now on the super long Libby hold list for Heated Rivalry and Game Changer through the Free Library of Philadelphia. Pray for me.
Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh had no (0) audio book copies. Apparently acquisitions has deeply underestimated the demand for hockey smut in our hockey town. 😭

Anyone know anything about those after-market CarPlay screens that you can get? I’m very interested but overwhelmed with choices. I know what I would LIKE it to do, but I don’t know what would do it 😂 I’ve read a lot-lot of specs but still don’t feel confident.

I got a ton of coffee and hand cream from my family for the holidays. This is a very successful haul as I will be done up for a few weeks on coffee 😂 and the whole next year on hand cream which is delightful because my skin went super dry the moment I turned 46 and the middle age switch was flipped.

The basement door is open. Gingersnap keeps going down in the basement and meowing mournfully like she’s stuck until I go to the top of the steps and ask what she’s doing. Then she comes up and wanders around for a bit like nothing happened then repeats 🙄

Finally got the new cat tree into place. The old one is in the kitchen waiting to be taken apart. It almost reaches the ceiling fan so when Gingersnap got on top and started getting fan-curious, I was like ma’am, ma’am. That is not for you. She is sitting on my chair now being sweet. Thank goodness.

This is Gingersnap. She’s a sweet, adventurous girl who’s less than a year old. She brings kitten energy and super cuddles to the table. She just asks for kibble and someone to snuggle with. Near Pittsburgh? Adopt this precious kitty! Her adoption application: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Biscuit is killing all the things. The sofa. The cat tree. You name it, he’s kicked at it with his back paws this morning.

Gingersnap is back with us! Poor kid took a nervous dump just before she got into the house. Everything’s cleaned up and she’s re-exploring. 1/2
