@clucky I was afraid of that, lol. I'm trying to teach them to save that energy for something more productive. They understand the concept, but getting them to do it in the moment is a whole other thing.

@Staceface Whoops, I read that wrong.

You know, I told that to my oldest. To just listen and maybe the youngest wouldn't yell so much at him. To you know...stop talking. I even did the Hamilton beat.

"Talk less."

@omnipotus That makes me feel a lot more normal, actually. I had to yell at mine tonight because the youngest decided to throw all his baseball gear at the oldest while he rage quit.

@clucky Latter. They're always fighting over something really stupid like how tall an imaginary thing is, or what color it should be. Who was out at the base. Like, it's the dumbest stuff possible and it always ends in tears and "I'M NOT PLAYING WITH YOU ANYMORE FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT" which...you know, doesn't happen.

Anyone else ever embarrassed by how much their children yell while outside? Like, my neighbors must think we're awful. Especially when I have to yell back. This feels like a daily occurrence.

Got the Writing Music Playlist up on my YouTube. Time to get busy.

@opalmirror Thank you for the add! :D And for your kind words. :)

@davastewart lol good to know. Someday I'll figure it all out.

@davastewart Good to know. I am very gardening stupid, so I just put mine in the garden and nature had their way with them. I have one that's still alive, but I doubt it'll last long.

@ThisNameWasntTaken I only had a cup. :)

@mouses I'll explore it today!

@MMH I love that image. 😆

@mouses Ooh I haven't tried Google Tasks yet! I'll check that one out. :D

@davastewart Thanks, I'm about 1/4 through it, so I feel like it's going well. And you're supposed to stake them up? Uh oh...lol.

My State of the Book video for May. It's short and sweet. Basically, State of the Book is where I'm at with my writing life and how things went for the month.

@LisaHope Thank you! :)

@JenSemDem It'll go quick. I've already knocked off a few things. Lots of short tasks. :)

@AnnieBlue Today is not a good day for me to take a nap. I might change my mind later, but I'd like to stay on my usual rhythm as much as possible. :)
