I finally got all the medications I’ve been waiting for – picked up six of them this morning. How is it possible that I need that many medications? Sigh. The rest of the day was pretty blah. The kids did well on their state tests, and now they’re pretty much done for the year. Christina…

I did a 777-second run this morning because why not? Tonight I also had a NAMI class. It went a little better than last week, but still ran right up to the last minute. Billy brought home Huey Magoo’s for dinner and I ate every bite. Wednesdays are so much work right now! I’m exhausted.

We finally got some rain today. It rained all day and the dogs would not go out for anything. Pinot decided to take the opportunity to pee and poop in every room in the house today. It really never stops bothering me, and never starts bothering him. Billy is over it. I don’t blame him.

I have been so exhausted these last couple days, thanks to my medication being out of stock yet once again. It is literally tiresome how often this happens, and the utter devastation I go through with withdrawal when I don’t have it. No one cares. Certainly not the pharmacy. I powered through anyway, and some…

Christina and I wanted to go paddling this morning, but the weather was a little too iffy, so we decided to postpone. Instead we went to lunch at Wicked Barley, which was the best burger I’ve had in a very long time. Then we met up with Colleen and fam for dinner at European Street.…

I thought I was going to finish digging today, but I didn’t anticipate all the roots I was going to have to deal with. Or the humidity. My clothes were drenched when I came inside. I only have a little left to do, but I promised Christina we’d go paddling tomorrow, so it’ll have to…

Couldn’t get my sorry ass out of bed for my run this morning. Guess I’ll have to suck it up on Mother’s Day. Things are going well at work. Took Christina to dance, texted a little with Siggi, sat with Robin while she worked on her Ferrari, watched the Knicks game with Billy. I have…

My run this morning was disappointing, thanks to tech failure. It was my first speed run since the winter and the intervals got messed up on my app and none of them were the right length. OH WELL. It was still a run, so not a total loss, and now I’ll just have to do…

I started a new NAMI Family to Family class tonight. Wednesdays are a crazy day for the next two months. The class went ok… it’s a really big group and the class ran long, and there were some tech issues, but otherwise not too bad. I’m glad I get to do this.

Robin had a rough afternoon and called me in tears asking to be picked up from school. It may sound weird, but it was nice to see her display emotion and talk about it. I’m sure she has a different take, but in a way I’m relieved. Apparently there is someone in her class who…

Not much to say about today. I went for a run this morning. Had naan pizzas for dinner. Took Christina to dance. Saw some nice tributes to John Sterling on the Yankees broadcast. Kind of a ho-hum day.

My hole is getting pretty impressive and starting to take shape. I measured out the footprint and for the first time I got a sense of what it will look like when it’s done. It’s going to be enormous. But I also think beautiful. I think one more weekend of digging and then I’ll be…

-
I had to throw in the towel early today because it started thundering and sprinkling. With bad weather predicted, it didn’t seem worth it to push my luck. Got a good bit done anyway. Christina had dance team auditions for next year and then we went out for lunch at the Loop. Afterwards we went…

Christina went to a birthday party tonight at the skate rink and had a good time. They rented the entire site for the party, so it was a nice private event. I made baked pesto chicken and pasta for dinner and even though she ate at the party, Christina came home and had some too.…

Billy’s aunt sent me this peace lily when my mom died 12 years ago. It has been slowly dying over the last month or two and I didn’t know what to do about it. I finally asked ChatGPT, which accurately diagnosed root rot due to inconsistent watering. Very little of the root structure is left,…
