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

picked up my new SUP

Nice! I enjoyed doing that in Rarotonga, but I fear it will be more difficult (and colder!) on Lake Michigan.

I didn't know you boated! Cool!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

After having Bailey the dog for 7 years, I JUST registered her microchip. And by finding the paperwork know that she is only 8 years old, not 10 like I thought.

So that was a stupid thing I had put off for years and years for no reason (anxiety IS STUPID).

Now to see if I have it in me to do anything else productive today.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It's fucking hot outside, but husband wants to go out again and do more things later. I may need to, because one of the pairs of paints I was planning on taking to Italy is about to give up the ghost.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Today we're going on a family bike ride with a picnic at one end, so feeling very athletic and outdoorsy.

You sounds very athletic and outdoorsy!

I had a traumatic morning taking Buddy to the vet, but of course he's fine now. And I'm hoping the bite and scratches on me don't get infected!

But then I went and had brunch with an old friend and then a walk with a different friend and now I'm home!

Maybe housework tomorrow?? (I realize a person could do housework in the evening, IN THEORY.)

2 loads of laundry. I feel like cooking something, but not really - I feel like having something to eat that I cooked, yes that is more accurate.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Dana, your drawl is showing. I remember fondly a Spanish exchange student we kindly taught how to drawl--"I used hot water and mah paints drawed up." He mastered it nearly perfectly, eventually.

I had to read that twice to figure out what was wrong with it.

Coding and Sleeping

Been solid busy all day and not feeling well. Just threw up. I think my wife is kinda pissed because she's going to the grocery store which was the next thing I was going to do. Weekend is not off to a great start.

Our wings are not tired.

I hope you feel better, Gud. Also hope you find some compassion around the home.

I'm overwhelmed with stuff that needs to be done. Construction and home organization stuff for the most part. A couple of my basketball sons came today to help, which was nice. They jumped in the pool to cool off when they were finished and I fed them fried chicken and watermelon, both of which were on sale at the grocery store. We decided it was a classic for a reason. No, I didn't actually eat fried chicken, I don't ever remember doing so, although maybe when I was a kid. I had watermelon with carrots and hummus because diet.

It would be nice if my bio kids were more helpful, and yet.
