I am fighting with domain.com-they are the most frustrating group to deal with. Please don’t use them to purchase your domains.

Trips planned this year: Mexico, Chicago, Montreal (by way of Philly), Vegas, Kansas City, and probably Mexico again.
Yes, I’m bragging a little, but also, just excited.

“SAFE deposit box!” I yell at the tv because I’m drunk…

and pedantic.

Yesterday Brad ran around the house singing Maria Carey “Hero” because he saved a turtle on his bike ride.
In case you ever wonder what it’s like at my house.

I often joke about bakers not being able to feel their fingers, but yesterday I accidentally dipped my fingers into 350° oil while showing students how to fry donuts and I couldn’t feel it.

Finished this morning at 5:15; usually I would think this was indicative of a start to a good day. Alas, it went off the rails so, so fast.

The other morning Brad said he was dreaming that a bumblebee was chasing him, then he woke up and realized it was me snoring.
Guess I should be glad it was a bumblebee and not a bear?

I am EXHAUSTED. Worked from 6:30 am-10 pm with a huge event. Fell asleep at 11. Woke up at 2 because my brain was like “hey, let’s argue about the way to spell ‘hustle’.”

Made Little Debbie cakes this morning, currently have dough proofing for baguettes, and a brisket in the smoker.
What’s in your kitchen this weekend?

So, I’m off work for the next 10 days. I have small stuff planned throughout, but like, I feel like I should accomplish something.

New teacher achievement unlocked today: I woke a student up by slamming a book on the desk.

Did I spend the last 8 weeks complaining about the number of students in my class and how I struggle with proper one on one instruction?
Yes.
Did I also just allow an overflow on a class next 8 weeks?
Also yes.

So my website picked up some malware. 😐
My options are:
-Spend $300 and let them clean it.
- say F it and let it be a big ol mess, possibly infecting others.
-delete the whole thing (I’m not opposed) BUT I use my email account, so I’d lose all of that..
-any other options?

My current fb feed is exclusively people I have unfollowed, that’s one hell of a glitch. (And yes, I’m still there, no I shouldn’t be, yes I have a problem, no I’m not proud)

Scene: neighborhood group chat
Neighbor 1: does anyone recognize this door? My package was delivered to the wrong house.
20 minutes later-image deleted.
10 minutes later:
Neighbor 2: did someone just take a package off my doorstep?

I’m no detective but I think these might be related.

What’s in the oven?
Scones.

I made Brad pause our movie for me to tell a story and Brad unhelpfully declared it “longer than the movie.”

Look, I still call (whatever it is now) the Alltel Arena. You can pry “Gulf of Mexico” out of my dead hands.

Not going to lie, this is a first for me. 🤦🏼‍♀️
And yes, I lightly protected the guilty with a lame attempt at marking through.

I’ve been “getting ready to do some work!” for about 5 hours now. At what point do I call it a day and try again tomorrow?
January 20, 2025 at 7:13 PM
Brad: well, cheer up, you go back to work tomorrow.
Me: nope, it’s a holiday.
Brad: YOURE STILL ON BREAK?!
I’ve been off since December 12.

I’m a sucker for any kind of baking tool or toy.
