ION, it's going to be in the mid-70s in Vegas next week. Ah, poolside in my future.
Note to self: religion freaky.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Thanks Juliana. I'll try that.
ltc is miserable today. She wants me to hold her 24/7. I'm exhausted and TCG is home but shoveling. So, I'm not getting rig any relief. She is consistently like this every time we have a very social busy weekend. I think I gave birth to an extrovert. How the hell did that happen.
The split peas are still hard. So TCG transferred the soup to the stove. I'll make sure it is up to temp before we eat it.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
No. You should be able to figure out how to do that without disturbing her. Or so my cats tell me regularly.
That's fair. From a feline standpoint.
I can't imagine myself having the energy for a child. I did find teaching both exhausting and energizing, but I was mostly away from kids after 9pm so I could decompress.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Somebody brought in pizza and put the leftovers out for the rest of us to scavenge so I did have a slice. Making up for Jesse.
I'm so glad!

sj, just chiming in to say I also have almost never felt that strong letdown feeling that some women experience. I asked a lactation consultant and she said in fact, lots of women never really do. So for what it's worth, that's more common than you might think.

Supercooled pool. My fingers didn't even prune and everything felt super slippery, it was weird. Good for the fact that I'm a giant ball of ache. I think it's the storm system. Kicked in right around when the pressure started dropping.
Long day webexed into a SDR while working on other stuff when I could. More tomorrow, weather permitting. And shoveling, unless this storm is a bust.
The nextdoor trashcan thread is now at 35 replies. People are all upset over the default can being 65 gal! Too big! OMG, we have to actually *request* a smaller one!!! What about the infirm? It's hilarious at this point.

Same thing happened here. People have VERY STRONG FEELINGS about trashcans.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Happened on mine too.

Thanks, Kate. That's good to know.

It's a city provided, gps located trashcan! Such hullabaloo over size (never mind that I think the bigger question is whether this is actually a good use of tax resources, considering it came out of the blue and wasn't a community request.)
