My appointment for today was canceled and now I’m finding zero motivation to do anything. I know I have to make a dessert, but that’s my only must do.

Ah, the millennial experience of “every time you get some measure of financial and career stability, the world decides to do something extraordinarily stupid again”

I’m going to Santa Barbara Friday-Sunday. This will be the longest I’ve been away from my kids since before Iris was even born. I’m very excited, packed already, with a couple of reservations. I need to download some stuff to my kindle. 😎

Tell me what your egg prices are where you live. I can get two dozen for $7 at Costco or a dozen for $3.50 at Trader Joe’s (both places run out), or a dozen for $8.99 at Walmart/any regular grocery store and they are plentiful.

Does anyone have a food/cooking podcast they love? I listened to Didn’t I Just Feed You for years but they ended production on new episodes this fall. It was so good at keeping me motivated as my family’s home cook. They reminded me I’m a person too and to find my own food joy.

Ah the young people are wearing dresses over trousers again I see, can't be long till they decide bootcut jeans and a kitten heel are where it's at

I have no motivation to do anything this morning. But later I will regret wasting my time. Ugh.

We started A Man on the Inside yesterday and just a couple of notes. The daughter monologues about her father to her HUSBAND. As if he has no idea of his own father in-laws backstory. Of course this is for the audience’s sake.

In an effort to be here more, I will share what my Gilmore Girls Advent calendar has each day. 🍁☕️❄️

I took myself to lunch yesterday and then had a FaceTime with @jeniferleigh.bsky.social. It was such a good day! Life is so wonderful when your family isn’t home sick! I didn’t even mind cleaning the rubble from my living room for three hours.

Both of my children went to school today! Yippee! Two entire weeks of norovirus in my house has destroyed my sanity. They each missed five days of school. Rory had to do independent study, which was SO MUCH WORK.

What is so festive about a semi-truck delivering bottles of coke? Let’s also be clear, the only kind of bottled Coke that is worth it is Mexican Coke.

Iris slept most of the day while Rory was at school. It’s also a minimum day so I’m already here picking up. Then to the dentist and pharmacy and then band practice. Things are back to normal for one kiddo and I’m happy to make the round trip trek around town.

One child is back in school!!!!

I took meat out of the freezer to defrost a couple of days ago. Had to cook it today. It’s not an ideal cut for people who are sick! I decided to make Filipino pork adobo. I’ve only made it with chicken before.

Even though I now have two sick kids at home, at the very least I didn’t have to deal with getting one kid ready for school while the other was sick and not going. Iris HATES when her brother stays home. She is unreasonable!

I’m listening to a book that’s so good I wonder why we can’t give books mid-read a five star review. I’m 3/4 done and feel like I’m in such good hands with this new to me author.
