Gotta love watching the evening news and trying to explain to my 7yo why POTUS dropped the f-bomb. Kiddo said it sounds like he needs to go to his room and chill out. I could not agree more.

Republicans can’t meet their own budget target without cutting Medicare or Medicaid, budget office says - NBC News
Now is the time to relentlessly speak up and push the facts. The mass media educated the public on the impact of tariffs on their daily life. Now let’s do Medicare/Medicaid cuts. Go!

I remember watching the J6 riots. Couldn’t work, couldn’t focus, just paralyzed watching an insurrection. Now here we are experiencing a coup and just sitting on Teams calls like nothing is happening. Absolutely surreal.

Husband is traveling for work and 6YO wants nothing more to sleep in our room. Extra snuggles. I’ll take all I can get because before I know if the 6YO will be 16.

Anyone else struggling to get into the Christmas spirit? Normally this is my favorite time of year. But…Our elf hasn’t returned from the North Pole, I didn’t bother with train tickets for the North Pole Express. Maybe half the decorations have made it out.
This season just feels meh so far.
