Pretty funny that a month after this post, I was in the ER with chest pain that lasted for 8+ hours, went on medical leave for 3 months, came back from leave at a reduced schedule, and then ultimately quit my job because of the toll that fighting for work accommodations has taken on my health. 🫠

It’s been very funny (and apparently very common) as I learn how to support my son’s very likely neurodivergence, that I realize how much I struggle with the same things. But I’ve treated it as a personality flaw to fix rather than something my nervous system just needs to function properly.

In today’s addition of giving my son things I never had growing up - a calm down corner that fits his specific sensory needs.

I turned the TV on and Spain immediately scored. So you’re welcome, everyone. Goodbye, least favorite CR7.

The match getting pushed back and hour means I will be attempting to put my toddler to bed while my English husband watches the last 30ish mins of regulation. So ya know, I’m sure it will go really well… (And yes I say regulation because I am not about to jinx anything.)

This USMNT is everything conservatives say they hate. 8 Black men started tonight. A Black man named Freeman scored on Juneteenth. Our best player almost had his citizenship revoked this week.

Married into an English family so this day may kill me. That England game, then going to Belgium v Senegal in person, then going home to watch USA v B/H. I am going to need 2-3 business days to recover.

Look, FIFA sucks but the World Cup is amazing. The players, the fans, the DRAMA. There is absolutely nothing like World Cup soccer. But also, I reiterate, FIFA is terrible.

Egypt v Iran match was an incredible game to watch as a neutral. And the ding ding ding ding noise for game updates about the Belgium v NZ game just made it even better. What an awesome night of sport. I love soccer.

Egypt v Iran at the stadium later. France v Norway at Canlis now. It’s called balance.

My almost three year old made his own version of “You are my sunshine” with these lyrics: I love you, mommy. My sweet, sweet mommy. You make me happy, When I am sad. You always hug me, When I am crying. You always have me in your heart. So I can confidently say that I have peaked as a parent. 🥹😭

Miserably sick for Christmas. Had to cancel every plan. I’m so exhausted and I hate this. Behind on everything in the world. House is a disaster. Not a single present wrapped. Taking a break from work was supposed to let me catch up but I feel like I’ve accomplished nothing.

I hope that KDB is healthy and FIFA parks Belgium in Seattle for two group stage matches, and then they win their group, and then they win the round of 32, and then I get to watch KDB play in person FOUR times.

Celebrating my first day of a month of leave from work with the world cup draw, knitting, and an espresso martini. Grateful to be in a position to take a month of leave unpaid because my god, I need it so badly. Cheers to a relaxing holiday season and interesting WC groups!

Robles gets on base and Julio hits another home run. That’s how we win.

About to take off on a quick flight to Spokane. Please please win, Mariners. I clearly didn’t bring us luck at yesterday’s game. So maybe if I can’t watch, it will be better.

We have tickets to game 4. Which could be the series winning game. Where the Mariners could punch their ticket to their first ever World Series. Ever. I know these words are true but I am still in disbelief.
