I got it set up and I'm done now. The pot cracked a little on the inside and I still put down a layer of rocks first because the hole is small. But overall I'm very pleased with myself.

I changed the cabin and engine air filters in my car. I am pretty sure I did them properly and my car did not explode in the 45 seconds I drove it after to park. I had a much harder time with the cabin filter, it is behind the glove compartment and I had a hard time getting mine out. I'm impatient and eventually beat the shit out of it too much, so when I put it back in, it doesn't quite latch properly anymore. Regardless, I once had a place charge me 15 dollars for labor for changing a brake light, so I am quite pleased with myself. Next up is cleaning battery corrosion.

The guy I am currently seeing started a new job this week that has crazy work hours. I'm kinda thinking I wont be able to see him this week which really sucks because normally I see him once or twice a week. This gives me more time to cam but I would rather snuggle and fall asleep with him.

I'm really looking forward to the end of this month. The kids and I are going on vacation to my grandma's cabin. The only downside is that I have no idea when my period is going to start because of having had a baby, got pregnant again before ever having a first postpartum period, lost that pregnancy, been breastfeeding the whole time, etc. My hormones are all out of wack right now and I plan on going swimming. I will wear a dang black bathing suit if I have to.

I remember when I was much younger, I used to really like puzzles, and there was a thrift store nearby I would buy them from. And I remember one that had me really fucked off. Had it all complete, except for that last piece… a piece from another puzzle had ended up in the box instead of the correct one, so the puzzle could never be complete.

And here I am now, where this situation has everything fitting together so perfectly, yet that one last piece isn’t part of this puzzle, and what kind of a fucked up joke is fate playing on me here?

A bird got into the car wash tunnel tonight and got soaked so he couldn’t fly away. I found him walking farther into it right before the washers turned back on and he was about to be in the path of the super powered soap sprayers. I scooped him up and took him out by a bush. I was so happy I found him, because I cleaned up the mangled body of a different, dead bird on my last shift. I had hoped I saved him. He was walking, so legs fine. He tried once to fly, but couldn’t, so I checked his wings but they didn’t appear broken. I figured he was just too wet, and left him to recuperate.

When I checked on him 30 minutes later, he was breathing heavily, but still opened his eyes and squawked when I came near. 2 hours later, he’s dead... Poor birdie. Idk what happened - maybe just too much trauma, or water in his lungs.

Well, I hope that he at least died a more peaceful death, drifting off in the sun, as opposed to being pummeled with car wash chemicals and slowly drowning in it.

Jut my humble opinion-

Most of the time people feel like "one piece" in the big picture is missing. It's our human nature to seek out more things, more experiences, more friends. If human beings stopped being interested in the world around us, we'd die out as a species.

My Random for today- I've been thinking about a former co-worker (day job) that betrayed me pretty badly, and have actually been feeling pretty sorry for him. I'll put it this way, his Quarantine experience probably wasn't as peaceful and easy as mine. A hard truth of life is some people are just born with more hardships to deal with and not all of them succeed in overcoming those problems.

Magnesium is good for digestion and mood.

Random thought- rice bowl for breakfast was a great idea. The Siracha sauce made it perfect.

I was SO proud of packing up from the house sit in a very clean and detailed way ( stuff broken down into bags to take directly into kitchen and bath at J's ) .

I was so happy I managed to pack without issues ......... then realized I forgot my computer cord. It's essential. Ugh.
I don't want to tell J I forgot anything but I know I can borrow a cord haha.

The cleaning company has been totally unhelpful so far even though I offer to pay their cleaner for 90 minutes if they go get it and bring it here ( only 30 minutes away ).

Well, yes. And I really didn’t clarify, but this was referring to one specific slice of life, rather than life collectively. Just that one piece of the puzzle doesn’t match up to the rest of it.

So, I went through all the trouble of putting on makeup, doing my hair, putting on business clothes for the video interview, making sure that the lighting was good, baby quiet, etc. It's 13 minutes past the time when my interview was supposed to start and the interviewer isn't even in the chatroom. Maybe it's a sign that this job isn't for me anyways -_-

I think I am giving up on the house for right now. I can't take the current market, I mean perfectly average houses are going in days with a dozen offers. People are buying sight unseen, waiving all contingencies, waiving the inspection. Wtf are people thinking?? I guess I am lucky in that my situation is so flexible, but still. I have been following a real estate forum and I've heard of one house that sold for 50k over asking price, another house that sold before pictures were even posted with the online listing. I swore I wouldn't move again until I was buying, but I also can't stand apartment living for one day longer than I have to and no one knows when this nonsense will end, so I'm going to rent a house. I'm so sad about it and really pissed at all the buyers flooding the market right now.

Soooo I had to sit through a very cringey phone conversation yesterday.

Basically my friend wrote off our mutual longtime friend (I'll call her "Len") and recited all the misdeeds and shitty behavior that Len had done in the past 15 years. I had to silently agree. I try to think of Len with a bit of kindness in my heart, as I remember the old Len- kind, funny and pretty. But time marches on and people change. Friendships stop.

I share this because most of us think the worst thing is to lose a friendship via sudden death, or the friend losing her mind, or being taken away in some sudden way. NAW the worst is to slowly have to give up all the warmth and joy you felt about a particular person. This is why I say ghosting people isn't the absolute worst because it leaves a little bit of merciful mystery as to why a friendship ended.

Just sharing, in case it helps anyone.

I'm not being dramatic. I just read something on CNN.com ... that is so (I can think of a strong enough word to put here, I'll just use) horrific. It's so terrible that I can't my mind can't believe that a person could actually do this to another person. It has to be some sort defense mechanism kicking in so that I don't go crazy. I will never be able to forget this vision.

Sometimes I get bored I think and end up wanting to end it with J .
These are just fleeting little idle thoughts ( I don't have any plans to as he treats me very very well ).
It's just that nasty little corner of my mind I think suggesting these ideas . :/

Off to go online lingerie shopping and amuse myself so I don't end up losing the only dude that has managed to give me consistent dick since like 2017. My long tern partner failed me in that regard late 2017 and 2018 and all my 2019 lovers failed in one way or another. I plan to get something black to wear in his pool at night and surprise him with an outdoor BJ lol.

Why do some people like to graffiti penises everywhere? I went to the park with the kids again. As we were walking past a concrete wall there was a big, obnoxious hot pink penis. I was trying to distract my oldest daughter as we were passing by. She noticed it anyways and said,"Mom, look at that!" and started laughing. I told her let's not look at it. Let's keep walking so we can get to the park. She said she didn't know why someone would draw a pink chicken on the wall. I breathed a sigh of relief as I agreed with her, that yes, that's silly that somebody would draw a pink chicken on the wall. I'd rather her be in the dark about certain things for as long as I can keep her from knowing about that crap.

I think my dog is mad at me because I made him stay outside during a storm. He gets scared and tried to run inside but I know he needed to go potty so I carried him across the street and he peed, so I was going to take him inside but then he seemed ok with the rain and trotted to bark at some trees. We walked around for a couple of minutes then it started to thunder again so I bent down for him to jump up (which he always does when it's storming) but he ignored me. :-[

A lot of stores can refuse service and turn you away at the door if you are not wearing a mask.
Might not be federal law, but they also have the right to not provide you with service in order to protect other customers.
If you are okay with that, then by all means don't wear a mask. However I do ask that you keep distance out of respect.
I am also confused why she feels the need to publicly announce that she refuses neither to purchase or wear a mask.
She want a award metal or something for being different?

When I watched her video this morning all I saw was anger. I'm very familiar with people who use religion to give backhanded comments. Usually it comes from rejection and hurt feelings.

I don’t understand it. Others talk constantly about their frustrations with their boyfriends/girlfriend/spouses and they make it sound like absolute hell in their lives… yet they’re often the same ones who turn around and tell me, “Oh, I have this single friend you just HAVE to meet…”. Misery loves company?

In the case of women who do this, they tend to get a little fucked off when I ask them, “If he’s so wonderful then, why is it you’re with the boyfriend who you say makes life unbearable instead of him then?”.

Using a mask is not just protect yourself, it also protects others. It's decency. I am sure if this ladies is 70+ years old, she would be singing a different tune.
What she said was a less aggressive way to say "fuck you, if you die you die".
Herd immunity requires 70%-90% of the population to get the virus, either recover or die from it. Herd immunity works, but the price we pay is steep. Imagine this, 70%-90%... do you think the 70+ elderly will all fall into the rest of 30%.
I would survive from it, but my nana won't.
Hence I will tell this lady to stay the fuck away from me if you don't wear a mask before the cure is invented.

PS. I went to a local restaurant to get my takeout food yesterday and they had already opened up the outside sitting area. I was a small space with 6 tables. Customers were sitting right next to each other with no masks on. It's like before the pandemic.

I wish I was back at my grandma's cabin up north. It was so peaceful up there in the woods by the water. I wish we could've stayed up there for a month or two, even despite grandma's anal-retentive former drill sergeant boyfriend barking orders at us over every little thing. I just let it go in one ear and out the other because he's old and in very poor health now to the point where every time he walked up or down the stairs or took a nap on his arm chair, I kept thinking he was going to perish right then and there.
