Given that left to my natural inclination, I'd wear out my favorite pair of shoes by wearing them every.damn.day, I've taken to having three pairs that I religiously switch between. I also don't want to track much outside dirt into the house, so I switch into slippers when I come in the front door, so they can get lined up and I know which pair gets used next.
I have to set these little habit traps for myself, or else I'd literally eat the same thing every day, wear t-shirts until they're in shreds, reread the same books...
99% of the time I wear sandals, but when I wore real shoes I found having the best socks made a real difference. Brendon goes through shoes at 10x the rate I do because he is huge, but having a rotation helps a lot.
Today, we celebrate aurelia's birth! I hope this day brings nothing but joy and delight. May this year be everything you desire and more.
Happiest of birthdays to you, aurelia!
My dog, is there anything more mind numbingly burning on a Monday morning than a backlog of required IT security videos???
Woke up to the strong smell of smoke, though nothing was smoky throughout the house. Ran around checking, including the cellar! Stepped outside, could smell it strongly though no sirens or ominous smoke or firelight on the horizon.
Checked social media -- grass fires comfortably far off.
Still not a great start to the day.
Happy birthday, Aurelia!!
Yikes that would be a scary way to wake up!! I recently saw a video about how a lot of fires start from bathroom fans that are full of dust and now I’m paranoid but not enough so that I’ve actually figured out how to, say, clean the fans.
I accomplished nothing this weekend. Which was nice but also I really should’ve done one or two things other than laundry and sitting on the couch watching TikTok or reading. Go for a run, or errands or cooking. Kicking myself a bit, because this is a rather busy week and I wish I’d set myself up better.
Happy birthday Aurelia!
Happy aurelia day!
Ugh on Monday backlog of security videos. Fie on that! We hates them, precious.
Yikes, Theo, waking up smelling smoke is never fun!
