  This morning I heard Mr. 12 say to Ms. 9 in mandarin “His mother you’re gonna use that one.” That first bit is like a hardcore swear. I only swear in English and not around them, so sure it’s one of his little friends. Was weird to address. I was just like there is a time and a place and don’t swear at people. I was also like Chinese swears are super bad, so you better be careful.

  Two of my siblings have birthdays very close together and I can never keep them straight.

  Kind of a weird thing, but today I am wearing earrings made from a ring my dad gave my mom. She had them made a few years back. The guy who made them pierced my ears when I was a kid. Kinda neat.

  Shout out to each of the number 23s on Mr. 13’s soccer team, including Mr. 13 himself.

  Fellow USians: Today USPS letter carriers are picking up donations for their annual Stamp Out Hunger food drive. You can place bags of non-perishable, unopened food items by your mailbox and your letter carrier will take them to bring all the donations to a local food bank. I know lots of folks do shopping on Saturday morning, so if you can afford it, pick up some cereal, pasta, soup, peanut butter, whatever, and donate it. Give the best you can. Everyone deserves to eat well.

  I’m making some bucatini with some canned tomatoes, garlic, Romano, crushed red pepper flakes, and pancetta later this week and I kinda can’t wait for it.

  My family doesn’t really like the traditional graham cracker crust that goes with cheesecake but they always want cheesecake for their birthdays. Thus, I have been experimenting. For my spouse’s recent birthday, I used unsweetened cocoa powder, ground hazelnuts , a little sugar, melted butter, and a little salt. For Ms. 8’s recent birthday, I used almond flour, ground hazelnuts, a little sugar, a little salt, and melted butter. I think I like the second one best.

  I am having bizarre dreams 60 days into CPAP treatment for sleep apnea. I read that this is common. Weird.

  What’s on tap for folks today? I need to give someone a ride to work and probably popover to Aldi’s to get stuff to make the kids’ lunches this week. Otherwise, i don’t plan on doing too much. Ms. 9 had a sleepover last night, and she and her friend are still crashed out.

  OMG ALDI had gabagool!!!! Probably going to be disappointed, but OMG.

  Shout out to everyone else who is not ready for another week out there in the hellscape. If you find yourself falling into k hole like spiral of angst, shame, and negative self talk (not that I would know anything about that), try to hang on to these truths: Rest is a right, not a reward. All we have is each other, act accordingly (with love and care). Our value is independent of our productivity. Our identity transcends a job title. #SolidarityForever

  Hey folks. I just want to remind each and every one of you of some facts. 1. We each deserve to be treated with love and care. 2. We have a duty to treat others with love and care. 3. Rest is a right, not a reward. 4. Our identity transcends our job title (or lack there of). 5. Our value is independent from our productivity. #SolidarityForever

  So overwhelmed and for no good reason. Need a time out.

  Changed out the food by my dead brother’s picture, and tossed the chestnuts that were there out in the backyard. Waiting for squirrels to show up.

  Slipped in some mud while jogging, fell down, and cracked one rib. Otherwise totally fine. I am such a dork.
