Our wings are not tired.

Sounds like a reasonable plan to me, meara.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I've decided I need a work break to go get some pot. Not my usual jam, but the anxiety is running high here. Maybe it'll take the edge off?

That sounds right.

For me, even just getting up and doing something helps. At the office last Friday, I was really spiraling and then we got a request to put all the desk plants in the kitchen, so I went around and picked them up off desks of people who weren't there, and just that 15 minutes or whatever of walking up and down the stairs helped.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I'm so sorry, Jessica.

Thrive to spite them

I need a drink or a massage . Or both of them. so far today I've gotten the new router set up, stopped Matthew and his Mom from fighting, set up everything I could on the new network, set up the Roku player for his Mom and got her watching Tex Ritter movies to get her away from the news.

And it's 2:30 and I agreed to make dinner but they want to eat around 4:30 (why???) and I said that if I make dinner I'm starting it around 5. We normally use their schedule for dinner and I'm claiming hte next few hours for myself.

I managed to finally get moving on my day. I printed up more worksheets for ltc and she helped me make pasta and beans with the beans we made yesterday.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

OH, Jess, I'm sorry. It's good that you got to celebrate with her on her birthday.

I just had my first video production meeting from home. Gilda was a big hit. I'm lucky both cats weren't in the office chair with me.

Jessica, I am so sorry. IIRC your grandmother is about a mile from me right now. I am thinking of her and your whole family. I am so glad you had that time last fall.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I just put in a grocery delivery order. I wasn't able to get a delivery time at Meijer, so I redid my whole order at Kroger, and it's being delivered Monday. Now, need to get some prescriptions refilled at CVS, and hoping that they're allowed to deliver controlled substances. (If not, I've got a couple of friends who aren't isolating as much as I am who've said they'd pick stuff up for me if I need it.)

What is even happening?

Jessica, love to you and your whole family. I am so sorry you're going through this.

Nilly, I hope you're enjoying your first night back with your family by now.

Hang in there, Buffistas.
