I could really use a pep talk. Something like; don’t worry it’s all going to be fine. We are all going to get through this and there won’t be any pain, everyone will have food, healthcare, social security, and housing. Our allies will still be our allies & the future won’t be as gloomy as it looks.

Friends, get yourself a partner who cares about your excitement for something that matters to you like mine cares about my excitement for my best loaf of sourdough yet (texts are them talking to his bread making sibling)!

I replaced a set of pots & pans. A gift from former lover 15 years ago. When I looked at them I would occasionally reminisce to when he gifted them to me & the joy I had at receiving them. They were the last physical item I had of that relationship it feels good to release them.

Like many others I have student loan debt. My work qualifies me for PSLF. Thank goodness! I am 18 payments away if buyback doesn’t go away. I’m petrified of what will happen day one of tRump presidency if he gets rid of the DOE.

Me: Why is my kitty gaining so much weight? I measure out all her food and she is very active.
Mothra: sneaking my dogs food and not letting him eat it when I’m not looking.

How did I go from using my Friday to pack my car to head to a music festival to dancing in the sun light covered in glitter and stay up all night howling at the moon turn into using my Friday to make tallow, sourdough, and a beef roast?

I spent a couple of hours preparing my wall calendar for 2025. I’m not sure what 2025 will be like but at least all the things I have to celebrate are mapped and stickered.

Have you ever gotten a holiday gift for someone, then when it arrives you realize just how big it is and you don’t know that it makes a good gift anymore? Because that’s what just happened to me and I don’t know what to do about it.

It is 21f where I live. The power just went out. It will be 4+hours before it comes back on according to the power company. In 4hrs it will be 15 degrees and the sun will be down.

Holiday shopping is hard for me. It feels like writers block when I try to think of what to get for people when there is a deadline. This year I tried to avoid that by getting things in advance. I spent more than intended which means I’m on a Mac & cheese diet for a while.

Gift season has been difficult. I have had to balance the needs my house has with getting gifts for my family. We are all in this together doesn’t hit when I’m the one paying.

It’s easy to look toward the incoming administration & feel helpless & hopeless. I do that nearly everyday. Then I see people like Mayor Carter of St Paul talking about coming together as a community during difficult times to make things better & I feel lucky to witness what a real leadership is.

I got curious about how many years I have left to live. I chose to look up the life expectancy of the surnames of my grandparents. I am 42.4. I have 7.5-36ish years to go. I don’t know why I found peace in this but I did.

Eli has never been a fan of the cold or the snow. He certainly took his time trying to decide if he had to touch the second and third stair.

I keep hoping that the catastrophizing so many of us (myself included) are doing is unnecessary. Then I see the news about the WW3 pamphlets and my heart takes another hard hit. Someone give me some good news.

I recall being young and not having the ability to start a retirement account. I’m trying to get caught up with my own savings & I have been giving money to my daughter for her retirement account. There is a long way to go for both of us.

I have never had a cat and a dog who loved each other the way these two do. They bathe each other, share toys, and cuddle. Tonight they are each other’s pillow.
