We watched the Grenfell documentary on Netflix last night. So heartbreaking. I don’t like that ‘stay in place’ idea during a fire. It cost people their lives.

As the morning goes on, I find myself yet again playing “Is it a cold or is it allergies?” Either way, my sinuses are pissed off.

It’s the first day of summer break for my teen! It will be nice having her home for awhile.

Up late because I had to pick teen up from a friends house. Decided to watch The Poop Cruise on Netflix. Normally I watch a paranormal show at night before bed but I can now tell you that ghosts are chill… but being stranded on a floating sewage cruise is terrifying. I may have nightmares.

Humans seem to be losing their humanity at an alarming rate.

Hi, I’m God. I’m against people being killed for their political beliefs. Please see ‘thou shalt not kill.’

Drove around in my Mustang, convertible top down, sun shining, blasting “When I Grow Up” by Pussycat Dolls. Totally helped my bad mood improve slightly.

I saw a robot lawn mower in action today. Think roomba, but bigger. Not gonna lie. It was weird.

Ugh. Was going to BBQ for dinner but now it’s raining & thundering… Pasta Night it is.

Decided to lay on my lounger and enjoy the summer weather for a few min. My view overhead:

Phew! All of my Tuesday items are checked off and the only thing I need to worry about now is dinner… and that can wait. After my crappy nights sleep, I feel like it’s a cozy up on couch and watch TV kinda afternoon. Fun fact: I rarely watched TV before my MS diagnosis.

Just went on a pharmacy run to stock up on items I’m running low on… Toothpaste, Shampoo, Allergy meds etc… $166 Canadian later… and that’s with taking advantage of a few sales. I recognize that I’m privileged enough that it just stings, but my heart goes out to those who can’t afford basics.

I have never understood the mindset of those who do 💩 like this. An author friend of mine was targeted a few years ago after another author didn’t like a tweet of hers & she sent her followers to harass my friend. Classless.

What a horrible nights sleep! Woke up every hour, had nightmares when I did sleep… Of course I can’t sleep in today… but I see a nap in my future.

Someone brings up 1985. Me: Ahhh yes. Good year. Kindergarten. So much fun…well except for when my entire class all got chicken pox… I still have a few scars…

Trying to explain to my Mini Schnauzer that it’s not a good day for him to sunbathe on the back deck. He seems oblivious to the heat.

I guessed a major plot twist on Yellowstone and my husband at first was like “There’s no way. That can’t be the case.” Then it happened and he looked at me “How the hell did you figure that out?!” Me: Because if I was writing the story, that’s exactly where I would have taken the plot. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Crazy to know that this early in the morning it is 28C but feels like 38C already. Steamy steamy! Good thing kiddo has no school today. (It’s exam week).

Yesterday my husband shooed a large raccoon away from our house. Tonight I went to take Winnie out walkies and as we walked onto the driveway I heard a noise and watched the raccoon run from the corner of our house towards the neighbors porch. He’s clearly moved in nearby.

Everyone in my house is some degree of moody today and it’s making me moody.

We have two Canadian getaways and one European vacation planned for this year and yesterday my husband says to me: “I’d like to take you on a weekend trip to Chicago! We can find some great things to do there” Me: **seethes in Canuck**

I have a bunch of bananas that I need to bake into something delicious today. Thinking about banana blondies… maybe find a donut recipe… I’m tired of banana bread & muffins.

We had THE most obnoxious people sitting in front of us at my daughter’s dance recital. The mom was even taking selfies of herself during the performance. Did I stare her down afterwards and send her running with my evil stare when she started trying to make googly eyes at my husband? Yes.

I love fashion but it’s been a struggle with Multiple Sclerosis bcuz clothes suck. I have to overthink every outfit decision based on comfort & how my skin feels. Today I’d love to wear a dress but it’s too windy & I can’t focus on keeping my skirt from flying up if I’m using a cane. Pants it is.

Hubby just found a raccoon hanging in our backyard. He said he shooed it off. Winston will not be amused.

Wahoo! Winston’s kennel accepted his booking which means our last minute trip for the start of July is on! Now to decide if we’re going to stay at hubby’s cousins house (they’re away on vacation and offered it to us) or just grab a hotel. I look forward to having a few days away.

Went to Micheal’s today…. Halloween stuff everywhere!!! Went to Winners….Halloween stuff being set out. Guess they finally got the memo that people like me are about the spooky year round. It’s about time!

Just witnessed people trying to catch a coyote thinking it was a loose dog. 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

So much going on today & tomorrow in this house that I have tunnel vision to Sunday!
