I'm sorry for all of you guys.

On the Stuff, my mother frets about all the shit in the attic and basement, and finally I told her not to worry about it -- when she dies, I'll just hire someone to haul it out. I mean, I guess I'll look at and want to keep some of it, but really not very much. I have no idea what most of it even is!

Ugh, I'm not making as much progress on my one big work thing as I would have liked, although I have done lots of little things I wasn't getting to -- the upside of procrastination! I guess I'll take one more run at it and try again tomorrow.

I'm sorry, Theo.

I am so sorry, Theo.

On the family drama front, I think I may have convinced my mom that finding a counselor or therapist is a good idea. It didn't take much of a push so I suspect she'd been noodling about it on her own.

Also, I did six hours of yard work today. Owwwwww..... Right now I am having some wine, some cheddar and some maple walnuts.

I am so sorry, Theo.

Oh, that sounds awful, Theo. My sympathies.

I'm making hot cross buns and doing QA work for my old boss. But really what I want is a beer...

I have taken a couple of naps and otherwise been sitting on my butt watching TV and eating hot sauce. Matzo ball soup with buffalo sauce in a minute.

Made it home via the supermarket, and am now eating bread and meat and cheese and watching Going Clear. I should have wine!

My wife is making a cake shaped like an Easter bunny. We had pasta shaped like animals too. Of course, the toddler decided to skip nap then fell asleep around 4:45, and explicitly refused to get up and eat about 15 minutes ago, so he will not get to enjoy the pasta or the cake. Well, actually, there will probably be leftover cake. But it won't look like a bunny.

I'm making the traditional lamb cake tonight so I can frost and decorate it tomorrow before taking it to my cousin's house. This year it's a devil's food cake, frosted white. It's the black sheep of the family.
