Our wings are not tired.
Between my normal work, dealing with the roofers, and the surveyors, I am pulling stuff out of cabinets and taking pictures to inventory what is in what bin so when I want something I can find it without opening 50 bins. SIL is on her way to pack.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'd like noise-canceling headphones that block out news.

Thrive to spite them
I'm at the point where I 'm hoping one of Putin's inner circle decides to kill him. I want to feel horrible about that but I don't. I know that won't happen.
