Lying in my boys’ bedroom floor, singing an old Gillian Welsh tune as they (hopefully) go to sleep. My Mama is in town for a visit, and that’s been grand. Just hanging out with her tonight -probably watching the Great British Baking Show.
Love Gillian Welch. Was a time I had Revival on repeat for weeks in the late 90s. have fun with your mama!
Don’t tell this to my dad lol he is the king of flip flops with white socks.
@VSue yes!! Love my Birkenstocks with socks.
I hope you get some quality time with your mom
I’ve been singing the song below to my boys at bedtime for 8 years now…(the older one I started with at 2 years old and don’t sing to him anymore. The younger one is 7 and he still likes me to sing songs as part of our nighttime routine. Counting down the days till he doesn’t ask anymore and it will be so bittersweet). I slow the tempo down a bit and usually only sing about one bird.
Just got my tree down about a week ago lol
Happy Friday! Belt testing some students tonight then packing for a weekend getaway to Iowa.
I am bored out of my mind and putting off school work. Lol. Sleep sounds much better at the moment
8:20 and I’m in bed watching ‘Won’t You Be My Neighbor’
Perfect
I really should workout but I’m on the couch and my cat is laying on me so I can’t get up… Can’t = don’t wanna.
So far I have spent my Friday night evening cleaning, loving on my kids, listening to music, and not wrecking my mind, heart, body, relationships or sense of self-worth. Hanging out in the game room currently wanting to go to bed already, but it’s only 7:45 pm lol. I just might convince my kids to put themselves to bed, so I can catch up sleep- but I hate doing this We shall see. Looking forward to waking up hangover free, feeling a little happier, healthier and stronger.
I am the co-chaperone at Teen Book and Movie Club. Pride and Prejudice. Eating Pringles.
Just landed on my couch. Oh. Yeahhhhhhh…
Meeting later. Now = melting into a pile of ooze.
I’d hoped for Friday night laundry and cleaning, but instead I’m sitting with a DBT workbook suppressing the urge to throw it across the room. Fortunately, it still works in such moods, and, if the mood leaves as quick as it came, I could end up having a fantastic rest of the night. Or spend it crying in bed. It remains to be seen.
I did get all my errands done today. And chopped a cabbage in record time. So, there’s that.
Hey Friday crew. Today I was wicked pissy and angsty at work - it was like my old, irritable self trying to rage through. I could see it happening, but couldn’t stop it. I went and got my nails done and then connected with some of my AA ladies - a few of us were not in the best place and doing the “I don’t feel like going to a meeting, but that probably means I should go to a meeting, are you going?”. I then went and picked a few of them up and off we went and guess what? All three of us ended up with lifted spirits. Then I came home and ate a frozen pizza.
Yeah I saw the quote part but still not able to do it. I’ll get it soon I’m sure, lol!
TEST, lol, to see if it works🤪
I know you’re in Maine and all, but you did cook the pizza first, right?
Got it. Thanks so much @Becsta😊
