I had four straight hours of meetings in which I was an active or leading participant, and by the middle of the last one, I had to pee so bad I really thought I was going to die right there on WebEx. I had also developed a steadily worsening headache. It was so hard to…

I worked out at the gym, worked at work, took Christina to dance, took Robin to cheer, came home, ate dinner (thank you, Billy), and instead of knitting or reading or doing crossword puzzles or paying bills or anything else, I watched crappy pointless TV for an hour. It felt like the biggest waste of…

Tuesdays are my easy days. No dance, no cheer, no reason to leave the house at all. We ate pizza and I knitted and watched Santa Claus: The Movie. It’s not the best movie out there, but I have some great memories of watching it when I was a kid. It felt to me then…

I went out to the garage to take Robin to cheer and it looked like the sky was on fire. Also today, I dropped Christina off for dance and left to pick up Pinot from the groomer, but got all the way to the library to drop off books before I remembered that what I…

We put up our village and it looks so quaint, I want to live inside it! Billy got railroad crossing signals that flash, and I think other than the Penn State firehouse and the Christmas countdown, that is my favorite thing on the table. I’m sure there will be more pics to come.

It wasn’t the best first outing, but they held up their pyramid and I’m proud of them. I hope this is the kick they need to bump it up a notch for the next one. They’ve got this!

I was touched to see this unicorn I made for Rosina years ago sitting on top of a pile of stuffies in her guest room. I had forgotten I ever even made it. It looks a lot healthier than the one I made for Christina. But then again, a lot of things do.

Robin’s first cheer competition is on Saturday, so we made some pins. We have eight hours between her performance and awards in which to give them out, which might just be enough. We learned a few things from last year and these were much simpler to make and probably cooler, too. We may need to…

Got my boobs squished this morning (after they called me 17 times in less than two days to schedule). I was overflowing sarcasm at work, and then watched Robin’s cheer practice. The team struggled tonight and she was literally sick with anxiety over it. But the coach, who had pissed me off tremendously over the…

I saw this dog sweater on Amazon a couple months ago that I really liked, but it wasn’t available in Pinot’s size or something, so I didn’t buy it and never saw it again. I decided I’m going to make it. I found a basic dog sweater pattern and am going to attempt to merge…

I am so cold. I can’t wait to get under the comforter and thaw out my nose and toes. It’s not even that cold outside (50s, maybe?), but I am freezing. Yay winter?
-
It’s gotten chilly here lately. I’m trying to avoid turning on the heat because I know Billy is part polar bear, but this morning it was 64 degrees in the house, and if it’s too cold to take a shower, then it’s too fucking cold. Also it’s 43 degrees outside right now and not only…

Somebody turned 46 today, and it wasn’t me!

It doesn’t really feel like Christmas to me yet. Maybe since less than 24 hours ago it was still Thanksgiving.

I ran my first 5k since sometime in 2018-2019. I’m a little disappointed that I didn’t hit my 20-minute consecutive run target, but I got to 17 and my pace was faster than it has been while training, so not a total loss. Plus I ran a few more stints of about 3-5 minutes each…
