My thoughts don't run ahead of me so much as they chase me down the street, and they're riding a bicycle, backwards, balanced on an elephant, who is also riding a bicycle (backwards). And I'm dressed as a giant marshmallow. And on fire. 🧠🚲🐘🚲🔥

We all have moments when our thoughts run ahead of us. We can take a breath and come back to what’s actually happening.
We don’t have to follow every thought that appears.

We've been moving around boxes today, and I lifted off the top of a bin and came face to face with my college backpack *and* the pictures I took on a school trip to Australia & New Zealand when I was 14. 😲

I think I'd rather lick a pine tree. 🤢
The Evergreen cocktail's blend of fruit juices and liqueurs offers sweet melon and mint paired with zesty citrus notes.

Something in here fell with a bang, and I jumped so hard that my medic alert tags swung up and smacked me upside the head. 😩

Going to cook at my brother's for tomorrow's family dinner. I have a literal suitcase packed with cooking equipment because I don't know what he has and what he hasn't...

All of my libationary loves. 🧡
If you like your cocktails bright, citrusy, and just sweet enough, give the Blossom a try.

I got the candy for my Advent calendar tree yesterday - I'm doing Butterfingers, Hershey's Cookies & Creme, and Reese's cups this year, with a cocoa bomb as the topper. Now I just have to get out the purple lights, and cut out the Chrismons to put on as the candy comes off. 🎄

I don't know when I became the project manager for everything my family does. Now I've become the go-between for my brother & my mother re: Thanksgiving dinner, because she makes his teeth itch, and he makes her want to throttle someone (generally him).

Of course I didn't just use a potato ricer to squeeze two limes for juice to put in a Gin Gimlet.

It took three. 🍸

I think I'm going to have to stop reading the Wayne Family Adventures web comic. I used to really enjoy it, when it was fun vignettes, but nowadays, every time I see it pop up in my feeds I get a surge of anxiety at the thought of having to read it. 😕

Oh dear, I totally missed that yesterday was the day (in 1779) when Thomas Chippendale died.

As we all know, Chippendale was famous for inventing the chair, male strippers, and the Rescue Rangers.

Watching my favourite Christmas lecture ever: @paulagooder.bsky.social at St. Paul's in 2019, "God With Us: Seeing the Christmas Stories with Fresh Eyes".

Or as it's known in my house, "Everything You Know About the Nativity is Wrong, So Sit There In Your Wrongness and Be Wrong." 😏

Has anybody else seen charities delimiting what can be donated for kids that won't have Christmas? Not what they need, but what's good enough for them to accept. Our local group, for 0-12 year olds, will only take brand-name purses/backpacks and gift cards over $50 to high-end stores. 🤔
