I'm sorry, Juliebird. So very sorry.

Natter 74: Ready or Not
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I seem to have hurt myself picking up something that fell off the arm of the couch. Ow.
Brenda, I think we need more details so we can accurately judge. :)
I spent all day on the couch (ok, briefly sent to the gym, and did some laundry, but no tanning. Just Law and Order). And then went to a restaurant for a friend's birthday. Which I was one of the last to leave, at 945pm. We are OLD. (And I was the youngest person there, apparently).
I slept in reaaaally late on purpose. I woke up at 7:30 but I was all, "Nope, we are getting ALL the sleeps!" Once I finally decided to get up, I got a library card, took a walk in Golden Gate park where I saw not one but two weddings, made pappardelle for dinner, and unpacked about 6 boxes of books. I also made some progress finding places for some of the things I've got piled everywhere.
Oh, Juliebird, I'm so sorry. That's gotta be hard.
I have made myself a list of things to do around the house today, and already have laundry in! Exciting. Most of my other items are cooking.
Among the things I am washing are new bras I got at Macy's yesterday. I've been wearing bras from Target and/or TJMaxx for years, so I had some sticker shock! My mother was like, Yeah, these are not expensive bras... And there were good deals -- buy 2, get 1 free AND 15% off. But still.
Timelies all!
Grocery run today, plus Gary's mom is stopping by to see the baby.
My sympathies, Juliebird; it's such a fraught situation. Much love to you.
In a shallow new, I am officially 43 years old! Had a lovely small get together last night -- a few former students (they're all in their mid-20's (!!) and I'm mucho proud of them!)
And dcp came and I hope he had fun: it was lovely for Buffistas to rep IRL.
Happy birthday!
I have started sauerkraut, caramelized a bunch of onions, and boiled potatoes for salad. Now I wish I had some ham, because potato and ham salad seems like a thing that would work for lunch tomorrow. Potato salad and pepperoni (which is the only protein currently in my fridge) makes less sense.
