I do the chrono rewatch of the SW universe once a year now. I would give anything to have a copy of the original versions of the original trilogy.

I bought the tools needed to can/preserve food a while back. It took until tonight for me to make my first jam. Hopefully I did it right and won't kill anyone with botulism. I made a little too much and mixed a few spoonfuls into some plain yogurt. It was amazing.

My frustrations are getting to me.
Commercial real estate in this market is ridiculous.
Everything is garbage, it seems.
I just want to make things with clay, pet the cats, take a nap, and wake up to a better world.

What are your strategies for managing this incredible amount of stress, dread, and anger? The healthy ways, I mean.
I got the doomscrolling, no sleep, avoiding all the things I need to do - down.

It has been a while since I took Amtrak to Chicago in coach… I don’t remember getting assigned to a seat and forbidden from changing. I am so looking forward to my roomette when I change trains.

Deep breath. It’s Week 3, the last week of session 1 of Pottery Summer camp. Session 2, and another 3 weeks immediately follows. IMO - School Teachers do not make enough money or get enough respect. I don’t know how they do this for the school year.

I had to get up earlier than usual this morning and found myself with free time - so I wrote a bunch of #PostcardsForVoters and hope you guys can find the time to do that once in a while, too.

My original Friday plans got all shaken up - for good reasons - but instead of an appointment and then a few hours having a spa day I now have five different very important tasks/errands and am anxious about it. I realize now I can't handle more than two things in a day before I start to spin.

Yeah there are a few differences from last time.
Stroke protocols and Opioid overdose are two big differences.

Retaking a long since expired CPR and First Aid certification course. There are knowledge assessments. I apparently remember how to do the actual CPR, but don’t know how to do any of the other protocols properly… On my way to fixing that. Although I’d argue I know how to do the important part.

In addition to a bunch of people needing to look up the McCarthy era, they apparently also need to look up Reagan and Star Wars Program.
