I very much dislike being perceived because I have *bad feelings* about my physical self BUT I also realize that's counter productive to selling books, so I'm going to do better about saying yes to event opportunities this year.

Me: Ugh, I'm feeling really down about my writing from this past year.
My husband: Are you serious?
Me:...Ok, I guess I did have a book published and signed a contract for another *secret project* that hasn't been announced yet BUT STILL.
Anyway, social media can warp your point of view.

We've been watching through the Marvel movies with K1 and K2, and tonight we finished Infinity War. Despite being slightly spoiled just by virtue of being on the Internet, they were *hooked* for those last twenty minutes. Great parenting moment.

I'm worried about being accused of weaponizing incompetence when it comes to wrapping presents, but honestly I'm not trying to weaponize anything. It's just sheer incompetence.

Cookie baking day today! Kids requested sugar cookies to decorate and regular chocolate chip. I've got a batch of hot chocolate cookie dough chilling. Going to throw some dark chocolate pomegranate treats together, too.
