Well today is an extension of my days off turning into crappy days. My mom and her siblings do zoom meet on Sundays thanks to her brother. And he can be prickly about things toward the end he was talking and paused I thought he was done so I started to say something and then be said sharply something like "can you let me finish" and I said "it was a mistake. I'm sorry" so kind of sharp and he muted his mic and then decided to end the call. Like barely let anyone say goodbye.
Also our internet is out. Again. It was supposed to be back on by now but it's not.
I should probably not do the zoom calls with video on anymore because it's impossible for me to stay still and I'm sure my moving around irritates my uncle.
I just got a bunch of Christmas shopping done and shipped, because what else am I going to do, think about reality?
Will re-post this on FB. I know 2020 has sucked balls. Are people wanting to do a gift exchange this year?
I don't want to participate in the gift exchange, but I'm happy to add people to my card list if they're interested.
I really enjoyed sending and receiving cards last year (Plei's is in a frame on my desk), and would like to do so again.
Why don't my children do their homework?
Relatedly, does anyone want a sweet-tempered, tall, turns 18 in August 2021, assistant/guest/nanny/etc. next year? Working on driving. Cooks. Doesn't do homework.
I’d show her around Seattle, if she came out here, and I’ll have a guest room!
Matilda is crying because her homework assignment is to watch a David Attenborough video, and it's showing animals dying. And that's basically like snuff porn horrible to her.
"Who wants to watch animals dying?!!!"
She had a similar issue with one of her fiction reading assignments. She's a sensitive girl.
