Sunrise over the city of Cambridge

As much as I appreciate people, noticing my weight loss, 25 pounds so far, it is awkward, knowing it is from the divorce. I had a friend at work today. Tell me there is nothing like the heartbreak diet.

One way I see the extent of this divorce is I have not read anything (physical or audiobook) since she told me it’s over.

The Child custody will not be a battle, it’s easy when both of us just want what’s right for the kids, but who gets Chase?

Okay, I’m hoping this will gain some traction on Bluesky *inhales* SALEM PUBLIC LIBRARY IN OREGON IS IN DANGER OF CLOSING. This sets a dangerous precedent for state capital libraries!! This is a continuation of the saga from last year, when we were saved at the last second by the then-mayor. (1/2)

This warms my little Dad Joke heart.
