Easy peasy!

I was stressing but I made it with plenty of time to spare!

Update, I was planning to leave the house at 4:30, and reserved an Uber ride for that time. The ride arrived 20 minutes late. 😩😩

Looks like it’s super busy right now according to the r/TSAatMSY subreddit, but people are reporting that the lines are moving somewhat quickly.

That’s good to know! I’m planning to get there around 5ish.

Thank you! I’ll head to that app and follow.

I’m heading to a conference tomorrow and my flight leaves at 7 a.m. I have TSA Pre-check and Clear. What time should I get to the airport? I know the flight is more than 12 hours away, but should I head to MSY now? I need to check a bag.

I’ve got a real competition of sweet perfume/dirty gym bag smells going on in the yard because the star jasmine and rough leaf dogwood are blooming at the same time.

A text that has a stern warning about overdue traffic citations reportedly from the Louisiana OMV. The text is a scam.

Got one of those scammy OMV texts. It looks real. www.wbrz.com/news/louisia...

My morning routine now includes the theme song from Cells at Work. “Every day’s a struggle, but I gotta pull through.”

Coming back to report that the two DTs in Chalmette appear to have recently restocked and they have all the good stuff between the two of them.

The struggle is finding a well-stocked DT! I watch a lot of Dollar Tree skincare videos on TikTok and can never find half of what they recommend. But it’s fun to experiment when everything costs $1.25.

I can’t say that my skin is all that good, but I like experimenting with the serums and creams at Dollar Tree. They have this rice protein one that I really like.

Still very slow, but faster than I’ve ever been.

They have the serious runner corral right next to the charity corral, and I almost just made a terrible error.

A message that says the post I’m replying to appears to be written in German

Danke?

That thought will definitely put lightning in my steps!

Made it in time for the pre-race picture. Have a great #CCC10K, New Orleans! I’m once again run/walking to support my favorite team. runsignup.com/newscarolyn

Never been so thankful for the location of my work building as I’m currently experiencing pre-CCC10K stomach death in the comfort of a private bathroom instead of in a porta potty amongst the masses.

I was pinned down by four cats when it happened. There will definitely be a debrief this morning as I review expectations. 😤

I’ve been struggling to fall asleep for the last few hours, and just as I was about to doze off, I felt something light walk across my shoulders and then tickle my face and then I opened my eyes to a GIANT ROACH ON MY PILLOW and now I’m never sleeping again.

I’m sad that I forgot about/missed the Artemis II launch yesterday, but I’m holding on to my space nerd card because I bought the Michoud Assembly Building in Sim City last week.

I saw!!! I hope it’s better than most of them, because my attempt to watch all geographically titled holiday movies failed quickly. They were so bad, I couldn’t keep watching!

From what happened yesterday. There are a lot of uptown people hanging around this morning.

I was working from home yesterday with sinus issues, but I’m back in the office today and things are…weird.

Will he wear a collar? Maybe one without a bell.

I got to be at Wrigley for opening day once - bucket list.

Scenes from my morning walk/run in Chalmette. Saw bald eagles in a bald cypress, and these two irises are blooming in my rain garden. I was threatened by a big white goose at the park. I thought they were supposed to be silly!

We checked the gfci outlet outside and don’t think that’s the issue
