Spring is really coming on here -- not just daffodils, I'm seeing trees starting to bud with incipient leaves. So that's going on, in a good way.
Slap my hand now!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I am feeling so overwhelmed today, not with actual work but with the idea of projects and things that need/want doing and where to start and what will cost $$ and and and.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm sorry, msbelle. Keep breathing.
I think I have talked myself out of ordering anything to be delivered after all. It would be too much money for not enough satisfaction, I'm afraid.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Mr. S woke up before 6 this morning and was loud and demanding from the start. Another fine start to the day....

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
I was just kvetching you my sister about how lately everywhere I look I see something else I want/need to spend $2000 on (and one that needs multiple two thousand dollarses) and I’m just paralyzed at decisioning any if it.
That is a brownie disaster meara.
I can’t even cope with HR shenanigans right now but I hope it resolves.

Oh my god, I had no idea how much new windows cost. And our house is tiny! Why does anyone ever own a house? Holy balls.

A friend gave me an uber eats gift card recently so I decided to order Caribbean food, which I don’t normally get because there’s none near here. First off, it’s ridiculous that the food was $31 but between fees and tip it was $53 total. Also weird—the order came in three boxes (entree and two sides). One had a tamper resistant tape thing on the top. The other two didn’t. Wtf? Why put it on one side but not the other two boxes? (Didn’t seem like they put it on those and it got ripped off or something. But still weird!!). I’m very full now.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
And to you, Karl, and thank you. And to everyone else here who's celebrating.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Oh my god, I had no idea how much new windows cost. And our house is tiny! Why does anyone ever own a house? Holy balls.
We are finally getting our adulting shit together and having all the chipped and cracked shingles on the outside of the house replaced so we can repaint and I just...ugggggggggh. Houses are stupid and I hate them. Is there some kind of maintenance-free yurt I can move into instead?
I got my second Pfizer dose yesterday and I woke up feeling like I'd been hit by a truck. I also realized I haven't had so much as a mild cold since we all started avoiding each other and wearing masks, because I am COMPLETELY out of practice feeling sick. Turns out, it sucks!
