Well, the last year & 1/2 has been a bit rough. My essential tremor has worsened. My grief over it has contributed to some recent bouts of depression.😞

But it helps me to know Emily Saliers from Indigo Girls is living with essential tremor, too. Rock on, Emily.🤘💜

bert and ernie from sesame street reading a book together Alt: Bert from Sesame Street is reading a book while Ernie laughs. Bert looks up from the book with a horrified expression on his Muppet face. Text at bottom of image says What did I just read.

Well, the upside of that unhinged f*ker destroying the world with nukes on Tuesday is that I won’t have to finish paying off my 34-year-old student loan debt🙃

This little nugget sleeps in whatever cozy box he can find. This particular box is well-loved. So is the soft, sweet little dude nestled in it.😻

His name is Castiel, and he’s my best friend.🙂

Happy #Caturday!

He’s clearly a menace behind the wheel. The only thing he should be allowed to drive is a golf ball.

Everything bagel + good coffee = 😋

Hope that combo helps!🤞 (if not, at least you’ll have enjoyed a tasty breakfast!)

My spouse’s current go-to breakfast is Grape-Nuts with sliced bananas. Today when I cleaned up the breakfast dishes, I realized that not only do I loathe eating Grape-Nuts (they remind me of aquarium gravel), I also despise the way they smell when they’re wet. Ugh.🤢

Anyway, happy Hump Day, y’all!🐪😃

UPDATE TO THE UPDATE: When I returned to the bank for my 3:30 appointment, I met with a kind customer service rep who filed a dispute for me. The missing $ was provisionally credited to my account. There will be an investigation, but when the ATM cash is reconciled, my $ should show up as excess.🙂

Hey folks, in case you didn't see, the social media blitz for my short film has kicked off.

If it's not too much trouble, please help me spread the word as you see my posts pop up. If liking and sharing gets even 1 more new viewer, I'll be happy.

I appreciate any help I can get! 🫡

UPDATE: I took an hour & 15 minutes of vacation time to visit my bank this morning, but the person who needs to handle this issue already had an appointment booked with another customer. I couldn’t stay because I had an important work meeting at 10:00. I made an appointment to go back at 3:30.😐

Well, there’s no record of my deposit in my email & my balance didn’t change. I’m going to be mighty PISSED if I don’t get my money back today, though. I need to have that deposit credited so I can make my student loan payment by the due date, which is today. I don’t want to f* up my PSLF.

Fecking ATM just stole $260 of my cash, so now I get to burn vacation time to go to the bank this morning & deal with this mess. The ATM didn’t give me a receipt, but its security cam will have video evidence of me shaking my fist & yelling, “WHAT THE F*CK DID YOU WITH MY MONEY, YOU PIECE OF SH*T?!”

So… gas prices have skyrocketed in the last month, and grocery prices just keep climbing.😩

But my monthly student loan payment is holding steady — at almost double the cost of my mortgage payment. So there’s that.🙃

I’ve only been to Oklahoma once (in the summer of 1983, while on a long road trip with my family). But one of my cousins and her children and grandchildren live in Moore.
