Tried to attract a raven that flies over the house by leaving out some peanuts and a shiny thing up on the wall. No raven has come down to eat. But now I have a curve billed thrasher that comes to get peanuts every day. Don’t get me wrong, he’s adorable. But not a raven. 🤣

I got a new tattoo today. My child came running out of his room when I got home and asked “what tattoo did you get, Mom?” So I showed him…and his response was, “Nah. I don’t love it.” 💀he’s 4. I’m so fucked when he’s a teenager if this is how he is at 4. 😆

Astrology told me not to do. *is he really about to do it?* But I did it anyway because it’s also time to let shit go. And I’m officially letting go of the narrative in my head that I look better with long hair. And my mom always said I’d look bad in bangs. I beg to differ….

Gonna make some pico de gallo and throw some chicken breast in it to make a salad to eat on tostadas for dinner tonight. 🤤 All of these tomatoes and limes were only 16 pesos (74 cents) at our little local grocer on our street. they just opened a few weeks ago and now we finally have a cheap option!

My baby is 4. Hard to believe it’s been 4 years. Happiest of birthdays to my happy, cranky, sweet, standoff-ish, smart, silly, adventurous, skeptical, outgoing boy. 🥰 and yes, we had cake for breakfast. 😋Because you’re only 4 once.

I’m officially a proud legal resident of Mexico. As someone who was brought to this country illegally as a child for 7 years without a choice, this feels like redemption. 🥲

This is the idiot (Xiomara) who’s been locked in this crate since last Tuesday. Why? Because she got spayed two weeks ago, immediately went feral and gave herself a hernia, had a hernia repair, and has been confined for her own good ever since. 🫠

Cuando te dicen “ponte las pilas,” tú díles que no porque son muy caras. 😘
Picture of batteries in Mexican grocery store. Prices ranging from $149 to $359 pesos for 4 packs which is roughly $7.50 to $17 dollars. 

Caption says “when they tell you to put the batteries on, tell them no because they’re too expensive” (put the batteries on is basically like saying pull yourself up by your bootstraps.)

Cat on a tree skirt! This is Osiris. He’s 6 (we think). He’s a void. He enjoys humping a fuzzy blanket, yelling at birds, showing everyone his fancy butthole, and running away from trash bags (he was found around age 2 with his brother in a trash bag by the road). #CatsofBluesky

Cat on a table! This is Daniel (as in Daniel Tiger). He’s 4 years old. He likes sitting on the new table, scratching the new chairs, hiding under the bed at night so I can’t kick him out of the bedroom, being a momma’s boy, and making me spend all my money on mysterious allergies no one can fix.

Cat on me! This is Mara(short for Xiomara). She’s 7 months old. She’s also the neediest but sweetest girl to ever grace the earth. She enjoys chatting me up, hunting anything that moves, sneaking out of the house to see her boyfriend (she is getting fixed next week), and snuggling. #CatsofBluesky

Cat on a waterspout! This is Sigmund. He’ll be one on Friday. He’s my bestest boy. And apparently he thinks he makes a good gargoyle…I have to agree. He loves snuggling, talking to me(which he was doing in this photo, too), following me around all day, and trying to be my sous chef when I cook.🤦🏻‍♀️

My partner knows an autism when I commit one.
A screenshot of text messages. Starts with picture of three eyeglass cleaning cloths folded exactly the same and stacked on top of one another precisely. 
“An autism happened here.” Is the accompanying text. 

Response: “LMAO. indeed. I didn’t even know I did that 😂 But now I remember playing with them on my call.”
