All in all, mission long weekend accomplished. I so needed the rest a couple extra days afforded me I thought about taking a day trip today, but was leaning towards no, because of the previously mentioned rest. Sleeping in sealed the deal

I lost one of my pearl earrings (I’m pretty sure) on my walk 😭 I thought a bug buzzed me. While I was in the shower, I realized it was probably my earring falling out I retraced my steps to where that happened, and still didn’t find it

It’s the last day of my long weekend. I started off my day by sleeping in, which I really needed. I’m gonna finish my coffee and head out. Still not sure where yet 😂

Look at that face. This poor guy is hurting and I need emergency vet funds to get him help. My vet can't see him for a week. He's not eating. He needs help. Please help. CA/V: makpoling PP: paypal.me/makpoling

The Indian delivery was so quick tonight! I had plenty of daylight to walk to the park down the street. The weather was chilly for a few minutes, then perfect One of the houses I walked by has a (new?) corgi that I got to walk by twice 🥰

I love seeing everyone’s protest pics from today 🫶🏻 I didn’t make it to the local protest today. My anxiety got the better of me I tried not to beat myself up about it, and managed to have a semi-productive day. I did I decent amount of cleaning, organizing, & laundry, with more to come post dinner

A+ first day off. I had my first oil change. There were so many places across the street I’ve never been to, despite living here over 20 years! 😭 A pedestrian bridge that’s lit up red at night, and trails around a local wetlands I saw a mama duck and 4 bebes, and a red-winged blackbird couple 🥹

I’m feeling slightly better today, but still not 100% I did get to see one of my favorite former coworkers who was there for someone else’s retirement party. 🥰 That was a bright spot in an otherwise chaotic day I’m really glad I have a long weekend. I desperately need it!

Better save a copy of this now

Other than < 5 min of cleaning and cooking dinner, I rested all day. I went for a slow <1.5 mi walk after dinner 🌅 It finally cooled off here. It was in the low 70s w/a breeze. I needed fresh air, snd easy movement is always good 🥰

I cooked pastina for myself for dinner tonight. It’s such an easy comfort food! Boil 1 c of broth Add 1/4 c of acini di pepe pasta and a pat of butter Turn down heat and simmer until liquid is absorbed Top w/parm & a wee bit more butter

I’m so glad I called in today, y’all! Still don’t feel great, but I’m slowly improving, which is because I didn’t push myself through it A nap really helped! Then I got some solid Betty snuggles while the husband was napping 🥰

I’m feeling slightly more human after a shower. Only slightly In clean PJs, I’m back on the couch. Planning on PB&J on toasted sourdough and some white cheddar cheez-its for lunch in a bit I’m trying to decide what to watch this afternoon

ChatGPT is down but The Museum of English Rural Life still stands, proving once again that Silicon Valley cannot compete with the history of rural England and its people.
