OMG, just learned my radiation therapy is going to be every day instead of every other like I had anticipated. I can barely get around and have no help. Simulation is today, treatments start Monday. Send positive vibes.

Aah, that time of year I would love to have the windows open at night for the cool air but can't because the pollen would choke me out. Ceiling fan is best I can do.

I'm back on chemo and this first week has already wrecked me. I have to get to a Dr appt in a couple hours and having trouble gathering the strength and energy to get in the shower. Ugh.

I was really hoping I was out of the woods, but after a year break I'm going back on chemo and will get some more radiation treatments on my esophagus... no radiation can be done on the liver apparently, that will be all chemo again. Ugh.

30 game hours played of DOS2 and enjoying it. Wish there were more Res scrolls available for cheap, lol I've gotten out of the fort so we can get our asses kicked out in the wilderness. I probably don't have the strongest team, who do you use? @blackwallmancer.bsky.social

Playing Divinity 2, good game. Resisting the urge to look up help online for best upgrades, recipes, where to find some citrus! But it means my group does a lot of blind stumbling around and getting our asses kicked! Starting to save often

Spent valentine's day afternoon visiting with my ex wife. It was nice. I didn't bring her any flowers cause that'd be weird but I did bring her lemon squares and some hot chocolate that she likes for a snack. So not the worst valentine's day I've had.

I'm working on making little chickens from granny squares. It should get a little better each iteration, we'll see. This first one is for my sister who likes black eyed susans and has backyard chickens 🐔

Had a memory today of just how much cool whip I ate in the middle of the night as a kid. Cherries too. How quiet as a mouse I was sneaking down the stairs... and just how friggin loud mice are. There's no way I was actually getting away with it

If other countries stop buying bourbon from us does that mean the price of it will go down here because of higher supply?

I wrote about self-doubt, new beginnings, and babies who steal hot drinks in The Pomegranate today. If you're a parent who feels constantly twinged by the regret of what you could have done better, maybe you'll like this. open.substack.com/pub/thepom/p...

I think that nutritional labels should include a "What if I ate the whole damn thing" section.

Just had a core memory of my dad bringing home our first microwave. Whole family stood around it and heated up a cup of water and then hotdogs. An amazing device!
