I'm making good inroads in the house (though still so much to go through). I've given myself till July to find the stuff I want to keep. At that point, a full scale purge straight to trash will occur. I may rent a dumpster and teenagers for labor. At that point, finding a new place and moving will commence.

My god, I'm so looking forward to not sorting and moving stuff. To sitting down somewhere of my own and being done. At which point I expect I'll fall apart for a couple of days.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

For some reason, I woke up with zero desire to go to TJs this morning, even though I really should so I can eat this week, so instead I walked to Costco and bought stuff there. I figure if I really need to I can stop at TJs on the way to work.

I got up early and got my bread dough in to rise, walked the dog, now I'm letting the rolls rise once more (I have gotten inspired by GBBO), and then there will be baking.

I really need to do some banking and some taxes today. But also laundry. And the game at my sister's house, with my dad.

I made chocolate-dipped macaroons last night, and I gotta say, they're really more work than they're worth. I think it's okay to buy them in future.

First coat on the ceiling. It will need at least one more. I hate painting even part of the ceiling.

Always Anti-fascist!

I've had some antibiotics where I had to take antacids, too, because they kind of messed my stomach up,JZ. Of course my stomach can be a delicate flower at times...

I did not wait long enough to go to the market today. I was hoping most superb owl parties started well before the game.

I'm craving Doritos right now, but I bet the chips aisle of the 24 hour supermarket is a barren wasteland.

Yep. I got a late invite to the Big Game, so I decided to bring a seven layer. There was no bean dip to be found, and avocados were on sale, so I made both guac and bean dip for the 7 layer dip. Yes, I know I'm ridiculous.

Of course I am not showered or dressed and am back in bed, but in theory you all would motivate me to deal with my house and self.

Nope, because I would show up in my coat with my pajamas still on underneath. t /enabler

Who should I root for? Panthers or Broncos? I like both horses and panthers, so I don't know.

Panthers. Their quarterback is hotter ( [link] and it irritates me that he's gotten shit for "celebrating" and other activites that white players having been doing for years.

oh, my rolls turned out fabulous-looking.

They do look fabulous!

Pretty rolls!

I hit up TJ's yesterday and while it was busy, the cashiers were rocking it and the line was basically just one full cart ahead of me.

I also went to Target today and it was normal Saturday busy, though everyone was in orange and blue.

I have stuff I really should be doing but instead I am practicing my persian letters and sounds. I'm considering moving on to lesson three, but I'm also cruising Amazon for a fountain pen so I can truly form the letters.

Vortex reasons are mine as well wrt the Panthers. Normally I don't care at all about football at all but the level of racist crap leveled at their QB is making me care this year.
