well, I had kind of a rotten day. gave in to the gloom and had a bit of a primal scream in the shower. then my spouse gave me a come-to-Jesus talk about doomscrolling and I’ve spent the evening #writing instead. five stars, highly recommended. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

my mom is so cute, Valentine’s Day is also my half-birthday and she got me some cozy themed socks. (anyone else mark their half-birthday in any way? I grew up in a small family and we were always looking for more excuses to celebrate. 🎉♥️)

Lulu knows the answer to “who’s my sweet lil baby girl?” but saying it out loud would be way too undignified. #cats

having a pretty crappy time of it today. bummed because I was on such a good streak with my #writing. I’m hoping I can get it back despite it all, because it’s one of the only things keeping me aloft right now. ♥️
