So glad to hear that, Laura! That took some doing.

I went to the DMV -they have a new office-so it was new and they had good flow for most things except the way the initial line is set up. The way it's roped and signed people were standing so they blocked the door and the an employee kept having to tell everyone to wait on the other side of the line.

I didn't have a ton of time to kill before work (I worked in the afternoon covering the online pick up area) but I went to the recraft thrift store and looked around, There was one thing I had my eye on but I was waffling over spending the money for it But! someone else had bought it so I didn't have to worry. I did find a a couple of cool things.

And then I went to work and somehow it felt like I was there for hours and hours and time was just dragging BUT at the same time it was kind of busy and I felt I barely had a moment of peace.

Just got back from the dog park. Loving my new home and environment. A lot.

That's great! You might not need a sailboat after all.

I haven't given up on the floating life, just put it off for the next chapter. There still aren't many available here, even after the hurricanes.

Timelies all!

We just can't get a break with Mr. S. He had a major meltdown at school today and trashed his classroom. Gary had to go pick him up, and we've been told to keep him home next week while the school figures out where to go with him.(this was the second time this week he flipped his desk) We started looking into various resources, including places that do partial hospitalizations. We're kinda frazzled here, which is no surprise.

I'm so sorry, Sheryl. I do hope you can find a solution that works for all of you. You and Gary must be exhausted.

I'm sorry Sheryl. I can't imagine how hard this is for all of you.

In other news, I got a massage and then I had my first quesabirria taco, which was pretty tasty but not better than fish tacos. Still very umami.

Now I'm watching GBBO and pondering the mixture of plums and chocolate.

Today is a day for celebration and gratitude that Jessica was born! Happy birthday to you and may you be spoiled mightily today. May the year to come be one of the best ever.

Happy Birthday Jessica!

I am torn between going to see Wakanda Forever this afternoon or a Memphis production of Evil Dead: The Musical tonight. I feel like I should go to the latter to support live theatre, but I really want to see the former.

Happy Birthday, Jessica!

We are having Friendsgiving here today -- I just finished a small bit of decoration, and Matt is doing the turkey. Will do stuffing and mashed potatoes later, and friends are bringing the rest. Games after lunch, of course...

It should be a blast.
