That feeling of setting your alarms half an hour earlier than normal just so you are awake and caffeinated enough to attend a last minute call scheduled for right at 8 AM your time…

…because no one else seems to understand #TimeZones …

#AdultingIsHard #Mood

Chilling, writing posts for #SeattleByNight , listening to new #DanceMusic , watching as the #DogOfMastodon over here snores quite loudly.

And yet I’m internally feeling all of the #Anxiety that comes with not being back into the work groove after a week’s #Staycation .

Y’all ever go through that pile of mail, receipts, magazines, etc. that you let pile up? Just did that and found stuff in there from 2021. LOL!whoops

I’m nervously laughing at myself as I write this blog for work about doing a mid-year review, to check in with yourself.

-stares at the neglected #BulletJournal where I’ve been meaning to do just that for a month now-

Last year I bought one of the really nice porcelain Disney Princess tea sets. I absolutely adore it and my daughter and I love having tea together.

Just found out there's a matching dinnerware set with the same 4 princesses and it is taking EVERY FIBER of responsibility in my body to not order it. I don't need another set of china. But...it's soooo pretty.

Still improper use of the word adult

Reminding myself that I am 43 and have an adult child does nothing to stop me feeling sad that yesterday was probably the last time I will regularly see the guy I have a crush on for the next 6 months.

I am an adult but definitely not a grown up.

Someone please tell me why I’m like this and how I make it stop.

@bluecat Sadly, that kind of existential terror doesn't get any easier with time. Embrace the suck and go with it.

Also, you can just let others assume the "responsible" part and go about your merry way. 🤔

It's really difficult to communicate, but there is a notable difference in the quality of output between approaching a problem to actually solve said problem and approaching a problem to get people to stop bugging you. Where I work, there is an overabundance of the latter, while my brain is basically hard-wired for the former. Where we collide == stresssssssss 🤕 🥀

It’s one of those days where I have a very good (and never ending) list of all the things I *should* do and *need* to do but fuck-all 0 idea of what I *want* to do. Turns out I’m about as good at acknowledging and creating space for things that I want as I am at knowing when I’m actually hungry (though arguably worse, since I’ve enjoyed some success on the food side of things lately). Ugh. 🥀 #restless #therapyTopics #adultingIsHard

Apparently I've accumulated a bunch of little mentees. A few of them have contacted me this past week for both career and personal advice and I feel like a mama goose trying to teach her goslings to be functional adults.

Fly, my little birds, fly!

I can’t believe I’m wishing away my Sunday of alI days, but I wish it was a couple of hours later. I need to mow the lawns, but it is still so hot and I fear by the time it starts to cool off my level of motivation will have dropped below zero. #adultingishard

Over the last few years I've been having extremely vivid and emotionally intense dreams. Usually about the women I used to be friends with, but am not anymore, for various reasons. It's like my brain keeps having to rehash my frien breakups over and over again. It's exhausting and frankly a bit depressing. Not sure what the point of this post was, just needed to put it out there.

It turns out if you just throw a couple pieces of bacon, 1 cubed sweet potato, 1x brick of ground #ImpossibleMeat, some sliced garlic, salt, and pepper, you end up with a pretty bodacious breakfast mash and/or nacho material. I'm going to try again sans bacon to see how it turns out as strictly vegetarian (cuz cholesterol), but even as is, this was pretty dope! :o #cooking #adultingishard #diet

I'm trying themed days for my January meal planning, and it's going pretty well. But looking at all my blank days reminds me, with appreciation, whoever was involved with putting out the school lunch menus of my youth. And my mom, who had 9 kids and 1 husband of her own to keep happy. #lunchlady #appreciation #mealplanning #tacotuesday #adultingishard #Mom

I just learned you aren't supposed to add 2 spaces after a sentence anymore, and well, I'm shook. #Old #AdultingIsHard #YesIHaveUsedATypewriter

I’ve been playing Dungeons & Dungeons for over 35 years, if my teenage self knew that the bard is now my favorite class he’d spit in my face. Suck it 17 year old me. Bards are awesome. #ttrpgs #dnd #AdultingIsHard

I’m finally an #adult. I own a #rolodex. That is all.
