Yay, msbelle! I need to knock out my daily postcards before I leave for the movie. About to do that now... except doggo is so comfortable lying on my lap.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's weird looking at Harris, though. She's exactly my age, and I'm just looking forward to a retirement, I would not want to take on a challenging new job at this point. The one I have is hard enough. Bully for her for having the energy, I guess!
I am VERY MUCH enjoying all the talk of how YOUNG she is!

Heh -- Harris is younger than I am. I still have some vim in my health tank, thank goodness. At least with 4 years of veeping under her belt, she has a very good idea of just how stressful the job will be.
Last week I was talking to two of the Front Desk receptionists, who really are the point persons for all resident matters, so I stay on their good sides, as well as they're very nice people! Anyway, somehow age came up, and I was mildly astounded to find out that both of them are within a year of my age -- I'd have given them a good ten years younger. We ended up agreeing that we're all doing quite well, especially because many of our residents aren't all that much older.

I know!
Just came back from a big first-birthday party for my great-nephew and another baby. Must have been 40-50 people there, and I think I got a bit too much sun. But I have leftover hamburgers to use as training treats, and leftover cupcakes, and leftover salad. So I don't have to make dinner tonight or maybe even lunch tomorrow.

Also Pumpkin Spice Season has landed at the store. There were Pumpkin Spice.. Frosted Flakes maybe? That seems wrong maybe Pumpkin Spice Cheerios. But the Spice Flows

I can't help wondering if anyone in the Republican party realizes that the ultimate childless cat lady is Taylor Swift. Is J.D. Vance going to take on the Swifties? (or, more likely, vice versa)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Hasn't that already happened? Not Vance, but somebody saying Swift was a bad role model because she doesn't have kids. And I have heard that Swift concerts are full of GOTV outreach
Seems early for pumpkin spice, but only by a little.

Dolly Parton is also a childless cat lady.
My therapist is leaving. The good new is someone is going to replace her. I’m trying not to spiral.

I bought a canned pumpkin spice latte from a store the other day, AIWFG!
