You can't push yourself forever.
I would also echo that this pace is not tenable.
Haven't you killed me enough for one day?

This. Thiiiiiiiiiiiisssss.
(Remember when I tried to do that and skirted the edge of a nervous breakdown? And all of you gently ganged up on me and told me I needed to rest? Back at you, my love.)

Our wings are not tired.
Pix, you have done everything you could do, and more. He would be in more trouble if you push yourself to collapse. Sleep well in your own bed and reenergize.

Matilda took off to spend NYE at a friend's house (with sleepover). So I'm all alone with a blossoming cold.
A sneezing and snizzling head cold. Rundown and snotty.
I just took a NyQuil and made myself a hot cider with cognac. So that should knock me out.
It's entirely appropriate that I'm entering 2024 sliding backwards down the coal chute.
It would be a good night to have a dog.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I know the feeling.

I have grown older, but not up.
Happy New Year! from UTC-6

I'm on the middle-to-tail end of mine, Hec, and I empathize. We didn't have the oomph to put together anything remotely celebratory today.
Now, I sleep. Late, I hope.
Good 2024 to all.

Because books.
Happy(ish?) New Year everyone.
I forgot to say yesterday, I have 4 cards left to send out, and thank you to the people waiting so patiently!

I haven't sent out any of my cards. I'm also flying back to Florida today after less than 15 hours here because it's not going to work for me to try to manage Dad's care remotely. My dear friend was there this morning, and thank god she was since all the rehab doctors and therapists were coming in and asking questions. Dad is still completely incapacitated verbally, cognitively, and physically, so she was trying to help them assess him without all the info. At least for this first week, I need to be there. So I'm on a 1 p.m. flight.
