The Kid in his first glasses! He's anxious about them because of course he is and adjusting to the new view, but he wanted to show The People (that's you).

It has been a battle lately to get Oliver Archimedes to eat. He either gets distracted (orange kitten) or he doesn't seem to like the food anymore (and we made changes to find something he does like). I've been mixing and matching and... Please celebrate with me because he FINALLY ate a whole meal!

I hate optimistic people sometimes. My husband is trying so hard to look on the bright side about this and... Dude, buying the house was supposed to change things. I was supposed to work 30 hours less a week. I was supposed to release some anxiety. Everything has gone wrong. Stop being positive.

We have to buy another car. Our current car is 12 years old, has a boat load of miles, and though we love her, she's collapsing under the strain of my husband's 120-mile daily commute. This...is not an expense I needed right now. Remember when I was gonna work normal hours?! 🤣😭

I can't afford to go back to the hospital, but I don't have much of a choice today. Just hoping this isn't pneumonia yet again. We can't afford more hospital bills; we're still drowning from the last time(s) and The Kid's gender affirming care. A single dollar helps. Sharing this helps. 💜
