Got my “I Voted” sticker today after dropping off my ballot. A bunch of people there dropping off ballots.

I keep thinking “why am I doing this?” . Why am I still here when every bone in my body is like “you’re running out of time”? ⌛️

I’m getting pretty convinced that we’re not getting out of this whole life thing alive.

So, it’s Sunday night and it’s snowing outside and what am I doing? Taking an online insurance ce class!

My new oncologist said “you’re in remission and you’re still not living your best life. Let’s change that”

Today feels a little monumental. I was diagnosed with breast cancer 3 years ago. This has been really really hard. It was really hard because I’ve been raw dogging menopause. Today I get to start taking some stuff to help with that.

At the cancer center getting a pet scan. Older guy walks in. Nurse says “how’s it going Tom?”. Tom “dying”. Tom, I hear that.

Maybe the most important political story of our time. People just want the bullshit to stop.

There’s a recall on soap. The soap might have bacteria in it. We don’t have safe soap. We live in a Idiocracy now. This tipped me over

I made a pumpkin cheesecake. It’s fantastic.

Got up, went for a 3.75 mile walk, scrubbed down the bar b que, made a orzo salad, then made myself breakfast. I’m exhausted.

Today, I started the day debate prepping with my team, then watched my daughter’s soccer game, went grocery shopping, watched my son’s football practice, and made us all dinner. But yeah, I’m totally a “radical lunatic.”

Is it Smokey af outside? Yes. Did I still do breakfast on my blackstone? Yes. Sometimes I miss being a breakfast cook because I was so damn good at it

I also worked in a restaurant next to a bar in high school. Patsynwas ever present. I really can’t believe I was allowed to work in a bar and then walk home at 12 after work. A different time for sure

Now listening to Patsy Cline which reminds me of the bar I grew up in. She was always on the jukebox. Yes, like a bar My grandparents worked there and took us there during the day. We ate so many snickers and drank so much coke. We also washed all the dishes and glasses.

Then we also had our dog. Like wtf? Then we would travel like 250 miles every other weekend to my grandparents. Like, what? It’s truly nuts when I look back.

I was just thinking of my kind of fucked up childhood while listening to “africa” by Toto. I remember we lived I think in a trailer at the time. Not the 23 footer but a bigger one. I seriously can’t believe my childhood when I look back. We lived in a 23 ft travel trailer for 11 months.4 people
