Is everyone in massive amounts of debt? Is that how they afford nice cars and family vacations? Or does everyone just have better jobs? Manage their money better? What is the secret, because I'd love to go on vacation again.

Bring back the CD player in vehicles! Even my newly licensed 17-year-old wants to listen to CDs in the car. Not all new tech is good or even fucking necessary.

Took a shower BEFORE logging in to work, like a boss

Face in the bathroom mirror: skin so dewy, so lovely for 50. Face in FF camera: Crone. Crypt Keeper. Saggy as fuck.

Crochet came pretty easily (Thanks, Woobles tutorials!), but I do not get knitting. I've started, unraveled, and restarted about 8 times. I drop stitches or lose a loop off the needle and then everything falls apart. But, I'm determined to get to the end of this pink yarn one way or another.

Amos: I am that guy And, I swoon. #TheExpanse

The world is burning, my husband is slurping spaghetti, and I'm stuck under a cat. There's no escape.

Fasting the day before a medical procedure really let's me know that I mostly eat out of boredom. What am I supposed to do without my food entertainment?

I think since I don't want to be trad published and I don't like the idea of using Amazon anymore, I might just publish chapters weekly on my neglected WordPress page. I don't ever expect to make money, because I don't have the motivation to market myself. I just want to write little stories

Sure sure sure. I picked up an accidental stitch, but BEHOLD my first few rows of knitting. Thanks to the YouTube channel @sheepandstitch for showing me how to get started!

The only sure-fire way for me to clear a room of cats and dogs is to sneeze.

"Take two minutes to make sure everything is complete and correct before you ask me to do something," I mumble to myself, knowing full well I will not be taking my own advice.

As someone who really doesn't like their mom, buying a birthday card is the fucking worst.

Final night of my 40s. Pretty much exactly how I imagined it would be.

Over on the Facebook (all my friends and writing groups are there!), I said multiple times that sex scenes bore me and make me uncomfortable. So, tell me why this novella I wrote is at least 35% sex. Who was I when I wrote this?

Unfortunately, I've developed a crush on the voice of a side character in this full cast production audiobook I just finished. Time to obsess for the next several days!

Just realized my employer is switching all HDHC plans to United starting next month, which is great. Really excited about this change.

I kinda need to go to bed, but, you know...

You never forget your first love, no matter how hard you try to move on. Walking away gets even harder when the fate of your business is on the line. You can buy What If...I Love You on Amazon. www.amazon.com/dp/B0C15HPR89

🎶 Pupkin here, Pupkin here. Everybody laugh. Everybody cheer. 🎶

It's time to start dinner, but I'm buried under two cats and the puppy just got cozy next to me, so I guess we humans will have to starve tonight.

Joined a "Women making connections" group for my town. Can't wait to never go to a single event and eventually leave the group once I'm thoroughly annoyed with all the event notifications.

I think I joined Bluesky right after Halloween and it was 100% so I could follow election info. So, because I missed it, here's what my eldest and I worked on this year.
