My mom died in January. She was a bit of a hoarder. I was forced to take care of her loads of stuff home yesterday. Going through some of it there’s a stack of birthday & anniversary cards my grandma & grandpa wrote to each other. It is so damn sweet. ½

I’ve been married 40 years. For 40 years I’ve been dairy intolerant. My in-laws are generally lovely. Come for Easter. Ok. We drive just under 2 hours to come. I could eat ham. That’s it. “We forgot”. 40 fucking years. I am sick of no mattering. ½

I’m a #FlightRadar 24 user. It started with being able to track flights of friends and family, but I soon got interested in the military flights part of it. Today is the first time I’ve notice ALOT of foreign military planes and helicopters arriving in US. No clue what it means.

Unpopular opinion. I have never understood the hatred of time changes. Without it, it would end up being light & birds would start singing at 3:30 am & dark by 9:30 pm. In winter 8 am & 4:30 pm. With DST that shifts to 4:30 & 10:30 summer; 9 & 5:30 winter if left on DST. ½

I have always had strong intuition. Don’t know how to harness it though. Awhile ago I sold my vehicle back to the dealership I’d bought it from. Had only had it 2 years. But every time I went for service I’d stop & say hello to the salesman. Then 1 day he was gone & all the faces were new. /1

I don’t recall ever seeing a world leader so visibly emotional after a tragedy. I am glad he is our leader right now. To Canadians who are advocating to separate or repeal gun laws: is this what you want? Is that tragedy what you want to see more of? If so you should be ashamed of yourself.

Had a doctor appointment, then ran to the grocery store to pick up something for supper. Mid-way through I got so overwhelmed (or hit with grief) that I felt like sitting down & having a good cry. But I didn’t. At least not until I got home. Looks like I’m having toast or cereal for supper though.

Hours to days. That’s all the time left in my parents my life. I am in a different city alone. My hubby couldn’t come. It is not ideal. I’m waiting for food to be delivered to hotel & then will likely let emotions flow. It’s complicated. They were emotionally abusive. Grief hits different.

How tiny of a pecker would a 30-40 yo male have to be to mock an older woman just because she has a mask on? In an arena with thousands of people night after night with nothing more than the odd weird glance, but this yahoo is so triggered he has to point & mock. Such a sad little irrelevant wussy.

As I sit here on the eve of 2025, I am filled with dread. Dread for world events but also much closer to home. I have to send my husband to buy a new suit. We will have funerals to attend. I have a feeling it will be more than expected. Cancer, age, etc. I don’t think 2026 is going to be easier.
