A prayer of thanks

I realized today that my Peanuts are exactly the kids I wanted to raise. 

One is barefoot in her suit, reading graphic novels.

The other is in a pirate tricorn making doll furniture. 

I'll take it.

today's bad take

...

SINGING IS NOT A SYMPTOM OF ADHD

Spring is here

 And pop! my energy level is up again

This is also supported by being fully staffed at work and also having to take something like 40 vacation days in the last 3 months of this fiscal year.

My hope is to start to clean out my domestic projects a bit

Sleeping better

 

I'm sleeping better!

But I'm still tired, but that's good!

I have like one deep thought today, and that is that you need to be one sentence grateful every day

Sleeping like crap

 Something's up, reader... I haven't had a good night's sleep in at least four days.

I hate it, a lot.

Some of it is the cats, some of it is just fretting, some of it is the change in daylight... not sure what else it could be

Fully staffed and ready to roll

 I guess I should talk about work, a bit?

I have two new folk working for me, and they're awesome, but very different. I wonder if this will cause any issues in the future...

When I started in the program here, 12 years ago(!), I had two staff, and it slowly... dropped away... until it was just me, and that coincided with the worst of Covid and labour disruption planning.

But now we're up and running and having a great time!

I need a system to track what we're each handling though... oof

Russia etc.

 Well.

I'm just gonna say it...

We are in a place right now where it is genuinely possible that Russia will nuke a western city.

If I lived in London, or Paris, I'd be genuinely worried. They're close enough to be hit quickly, but far enough from Russia to be a minimal impact for Russia.

TERRIFYING
