Oh look, it’s the budgie pic you didn’t ask for. Say hello to Perry, our fourth and FINAL (I mean it this time!) budgerigar. She’s in quarantine to keep the other three from getting any possible maladies she may be carrying. Soon after quarantine she will join the others in the Parakeet Palace that is almost as tall as me and stupidly expensive.

I just installed a screen protector flawlessly and on the first try. I am a legend.

Got this turmeric and cinnamon tea with a touch of honey steaming away while I finish my grits. Gonna be a good day.

When I went into Starter Villain by John Scalzi I was unsure if I would be even half as amused and captivated as I was reading Kaiju Preservation Society.

Expectations have been thoroughly exceeded. The dolphins… 😂☠️

I don’t always get the warm fuzzies. But my husband helped me build a snowman before 8:30 to surprise our 6yo after school because the snow is finally sticky enough and THEN stayed out to build a second one because he grew up in India and snow was not a part of his childhood.

Here’s our ⛄️ not gorgeous. But he will do just fine to make a 6yo happy.

Perfect night to start a new book. #currentlyreading #cosobookclub

Worked my tushie off cleaning the house today so I could unfurl the new rug. Enjoying some well-earned rest before school pickup.

Frost-kissed windows on the way to school drop off this morning. Made for a magical start to the Monday morning.

Snowy afternoon birding with my love bug. #birbs

Are #gallerywalls still cool?
I don’t care. I love them.

My. Whole. Heart.

In no particular order.

Fuck. My big sister is going through some stuff. Please keep her in your thoughts, send her healing vibes, if you have any to spare. I hope, if any of you are going through some stuff too, you know it’s okay to need help. It’s okay to not be okay. And your feelings and worries matter.

I don’t always know just what to say. She’s the sister that I am always holding myself to the standard of…
💔

What? This is a thing?
