  • So Long 2024

    Shall we start with the usual? How is the year over? How is 2025 just hours away? How does time go by so fast? It has been a weird year all around, which if you’ve been following along, you know. I think, in truth, we all can agree it has been numerous weird years in…

  • Grrr

    This photo is like a visualization of my feelings this month. Vascilating between Grrr and Meh in equal measure. Work stresses, exhaustion and just some ennui have meant that for this month and most of the previous twelve or so (not sure how many but assume a lot) I’ve been generally ranty or miserable company.…

  • Grump

    Is there something about getting older that makes you more susceptible to irritation? I’ve always had limited patience with certain things, people with no common sense, bad drivers, etc., but looking back on the last few years I’ve noticed my patience is almost non-existent. Irritation with everything is more normal than patience over a few…

  • Allergies

    This topic has been coming up a lot. My allergies, today we dealt with puppy allergies for added fun. My own allergies have always been seasonal but I think as I’m getting older I’m developing new food related ones. I am not pleased eating is hard for me anyway, most vegetables make my mouth start…

  • My Repeating Annoyances

    I am sure we all have a list like this, the things that no matter how many times they happen, we never learn our lesson or seem to be able to avoid falling prey to their irritation. Laundry will be done and in need of folding exactly when I want to just crawl into bed.…

  • Mothers

    Have you ever noticed that arguing with your mother is basically pointless? I’m not talking about big things here, just the everyday. That money you’re sure you owe them, but they refuse to acknowledge they lent you. The no gifts policy at birthdays and holidays that they implemented but somehow doesn’t apply to them. The…

  • New Mechanisms

    The past few years have been, well shitty, for many of us. One way or another the pandemic has affected our lives, added another layer of stress to what, for many, was already too much. I definitely have felt like more than one layer has been laid upon my life. Getting older comes with a…

  • A Long Time Ago…

    Mindless repetitive ramblings?

  • Black Hole

    What do I want to write? Stress. I wish it was something I had more control over. I’ve said it before I obsess, which isn’t a great quality when you are under stress. It means you then obsess over all the things causing you stress. I would say that 75% of the time I deal…

  • Year 43: Day One

    I think it got away from me in the middle, but you’ll get the gist. If not you probably don’t need to hang about. 😉
