I got a flu shot and a Tdap booster this week and both of my upper arms feel like someone has shoved a softball under the skin. An itchy softball. Stupid healthy immune response.
Xander: We just saw the zebras mating! Thank you, very exciting... Willow: It was like the Heimlich, with stripes!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I didn't get much of a reaction to my flu shot, which almost makes me suspicious.

Lol, I would love to see treadmill good place reactions!!
Am waiting for a friend to get me and hang out with her and her toddler at the park. May be exhausted after that.
I also can't inagine dealing with a toddler AND myself when depressed. But agree sunshine is a good plan that is hopefully relatively simple (not if you're in Seattle in the winter but...and it's been gorgeous here the past week!) was

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm freezing in my office, but generally pretty happy about the chilly and sunny weather we have here today. This is fall in New England! (My pregnant coworker, on the other hand, is just hoping there's no snow in the next four weeks before she's due, because she's not sure she can get boots on....)
I should get a flu shot, but I'm sort of waiting for them to be announced at work?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
sj, most days I'm just powering through myself. I can;t imagine having to deal with truly inclement weather on top of that. We're in Ontario right now, and it's almost freezing, and I'm running out of ideas to entertain Alexandra.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
The food thing can be a huge issue. One of my cousin's sons is now a very healthy, happy and successful man, but spent more than a year of his youth earring only plain yoghurt and plain noodles with butter on them. No vegetables or protein at all. It drove his mother and grandmother mad.

One of my friends would have sworn her 3-year-old only ate tangerines for six months, but somehow he kept growing! (Apparently there was a bite of cheese here and there?)

Juliana, been cold and rainy a lot lately, which definitely doesn't help matters and neither does my sitter quitting. My mother in law is here. So I took a shower and now I'm going to nap.

Cheese and fruit and pasta are the only things I can count on that ltc will always eat.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That sounds pretty balanced.
