She then read it out loud again slowly, then got excited and started asking if they needed to have a cardiac specialist on standby. I had to explain that the allergy should have said atropine sulfate, which is an eyedrop. We had a good laugh and she was much more relieved after that. (2/2)

I’m having a small procedure done next week, and I gave the poor nurse who called for pre-admission questions/instructions a start. She got to the allergies portion and read off that I’m allergic to atropine. (1/2)

Also, what a cool study for your daughter to follow in!

I just find it so odd that historic is defined as 50+ years, I’m so used to antiques being 100+ years.

I just read a book blurb categorizing a story set in 1955 as historical fiction. Excuse me while I go find my walker.

Wasn’t much of a Christmas this year so this afternoon I’m indulging in a cup of coffee, accompanied by a couple of peanut butter chocolate chunk cookies and the new season of Squid Game.

Received a beautiful little Christmas stocking from the personal trainer I’ve been working with for the past year, Leia loved the candy cane the most.

Time for USA and NZL to clash in the field for the Cape Town Sevens Final. Both fierce teams, all powerful women. Let’s Go!

That looks amazing!

The people who signed this into play should go first on the table. May they get everything they reaped.

I do have a tree up and some decorations inside, I just don’t have any outside decorations. It would be nice to make it pretty outside like my neighbors, it’s just too much right now. :)

Those lights made me forget all of that for a moment. They just made me smile. I stood out there in the frosty cold just looking at them because they brought me peace and joy. From someone with a dark house who has no spoons to put up lights, other houses lit up in the night are so appreciated (2/2)

I took my dog outside last night and looking to my right I could see the Christmas lights twinkling from my neighbor’s house. I’m exhausted from being a caregiver, depressed from being alone and not having a day off in over a year, anxious about everything (1/)

That’s an *additional* 10%, so 35% minimum tariffs on China goods - possibly higher depending on the sector it’s coming from.

He was so clueless and trying to explain why he did it, and I couldn’t even begin to explain. 😂😂

My (very religious) dad treated me to a coffee after I helped him run errands. Placed my order as “JJ” just because it’s easier than spelling my name and he tried to follow suit to be cute. The girl behind the counter was smirking as I changed it to his name. Not explaining why “BJ” isn’t optimal. 😂

Not even a boxing fan, but watching the fights is proving to be quite cathartic. Hoping Tyson kicks the absolute crap out of Paul. Also, Serrano was robbed.

I remember that you had resumed a little bit of contact, but I don’t think she’d left yet at that point. I’m so very happy for you!

Thanks!

Bru!! ♥️ I just saw your wonderful news about your daughter. I’m so glad she’s out and free, and back in your life!

I miss you!!

Love you! ♥️

Recently a man in our small town was caught by a decoy and the police trying to meet up for relations with a 15 year old child. The public outrage is fierce. This same town - INCLUDING THE PREDATOR DECOY - literally voted overwhelmingly for a sexual predator to be POTUS. What the actual fuck

Don’t have much to say today. Don’t have the words to encapsulate everything I’m feeling about what the nation has show us. Am I surprised? No. Dismayed, frustrated, saddened, and angered.

When my mom’s health started declining in 2019, I became a homebound caregiver by no choice of my own. I love her dearly, but it was hard. I learned how to make handbags and that helped save my mental health. She’s better now after open heart surgery last year, and I’m still creating.

Just turned 45 last week and doing my best to retake my life and parts of myself that I lost over the past few years being a full time caregiver. It’s damn hard at times, just pushing through.

Snow is still on the ground from yesterday’s Halloween. It’s happened before, of course, but somehow it’s always unexpected and seems wrong.
