Amy, yikes! Don't... go to Longwood Gardens, I guess? Eek.
Atropa, congratulations on the move... and the fire pit.
David, wishing you cessation of family being a pain and safe travels. I'm so sorry this visit to your sister has to happen, for all the reasons.
I know I missed a bunch of stuff. I am thinking supportive things when I read.
I'm pretty much JenP here.
But I do have a bluesky invite code to offer if anyone wants one.
Great! I'll send it to you via Messenger?
Family's not really being a pain. They just expect that a funeral announcement would have followed by now, and that's not a crazy expectation.
Anyway, I ran a berjillion errands with Matilda today in advance of her returning to school tomorrow.
The complicated route I took to hit all my stops had all the genuine satisfaction of a solving a sudoku. Because I had to factor in one way streets, streets with no turns, cross city routes and hit the parking on every stop too.
Ehh, it's too much to explain but if you've lived in San Francisco and ever had to run 7 errands in two hours you know what I mean.
I haven't lived in SF, but I get that
(Did I mention we moved? We did. Much better house. And it has a natural gas -powered fire pit in the backyard!!)
My dream ritual spot!! Congrats on the move and good unpacking vibes.

Gotcha, and good to hear. And go you for errand-fu.
We just ate takeout from a yum new Thai place we discovered thanks to a friend's b-day dinner.
