I slept weirdly on my arm and couldn’t move it all morning but the good news is I slipped on the ice and fell right on same arm. Hurt like hell but now it’s back to normal. Must have knocked it into place 😂

Even the Supreme Court didn’t want to have to look at Kim Davis. “Let those 🚬 get married, we can’t bear it”

So glad I have been floating our entire household on my savings for 40 days while my husband isn’t getting paid for them to collapse like a house of cards

Early birthday gifts from two different people. I am sensing a plant daddy theme

Just in case you didn’t know, because someone in our house didn’t, you shouldn’t mop by standing in the middle of the room and mopping all around yourself 😆

I know the surroundings are nothing to write home about but I just think this Ginkgo is the most gorgeous

Husband: “you have some sort of jacket fetish. You have 11 coats in the hall closet”

Me: “I don’t. This one isn’t mine”

Husband stares

I run away

Our normal vet had to reschedule so they sent us to their location in one of the fanciest suburbs. It was quite the experience.

Our dog was a celebrity, they were thrilled to see a pit bull. Every member of their staff stopped to meet her and talked about her fat butt and fat head. It was so cute

Just got Covid and flu shots, so now I turn into Spider-Man? I can’t remember

But word to the wise, I have found getting them at Walgreens deeply unpleasant so I got them at Jewel and it was so nice, efficient and they give me a 10% off groceries coupon for each shot

I guess we are taking a last minute trip to Michigan. My nephew was convinced Uncle Jonathan was coming on a trip to a lake house.

I had never heard about the trip and no one told him I was coming, but he was heartbroken and he is my favorite so off I go.

I hurt my neck (in my sleep, because I am so cool) and I was complaining to my boss and she said:

“Take a muscle relaxer?”

“I don’t have any”

“Maybe a Xanax?”

“None of that either”

“Oh I always keep Xanax for an emergency. Although Valium is the best”

What kind of doctor does she have!?

When I was walking into the house, I saw the man working on our pantry talking to my neighbor at their cars

He came inside super giddy but was unsure if she liked him. I had seen her body language and assured him she did

“You should have checked her when she was 8 months old cuz now she is an 17 year old demon”

“What’s on your eggs?”

Husband “green onions”

“That does not look like green onions at all”

Husband “that’s because it’s blue cheese”

Sometimes I wonder what worthwhile things my parents taught me, but just now as I was walking down the stairs with a pair of scissors, I realized that I was holding them correctly without thinking about it 🤣

Good job, Mom and Dad!

Just watched activists on bikes come speeding up, half of them whisk away the champurrado man and the other half stayed with his cart just as unmarked van of goons pulled up

Working with much older people is so fun. They think I am so clever for doing normal things and my boss was highly amused by the concept of “basic”

I just really love using the pressure washer

We have a shop vac, a huge wet vac, a cheap basic vacuum for the basement, and a Dyson. You’ll never guess which one my husband used to vacuum up a broken water pitcher and the water it contained. I would be mad but it so funny to me

I just randomly remembered a day I was kind of sneaking around a home goods store collecting items to turn a closet into our dogs bedroom

My husband comes over and I am thinking, oh god he is going to think I am so weird, and he says “are you making Mari a bedroom!?!? She will need wall art!”

My husband has been furloughed for 28 minutes and he is already driving me up a wall. His constant need to be productive is something I cannot relate to. He is currently in the basement looking for paint to touch up the walls

My grandma is so emotionally smart, no wonder she is healthy at 88. She is upset about “armed masked police roaming around snatching people” but after writing letters and making donations she didn’t know what to do so she learned to use acrylics (she is a pastels lady usually)

Her first attempt:

Since the new iOS update I have been doing a deep clean of my phone storage and it felt good at first but now I feel like I opened a can of worms and I am tempted to just chuck this thing into the lake

Drinking my apple juice but I’m an adult so it’s sparkling and caffeinated
