Tanktimus the Encourager

I do love blankets. I wish you had a fireplace. I thoroughly thank thee. I've had worse on call for jobs. The on call is rotated, so I at least know when I'm on call, and I'm on call way less than I'm not. I've had other jobs where I was on call every weekend as a matter of course. Today is a good day. Work was long, dinner was out. Stretch and stroll done. Just need strength and stretch tomorrow to close out the week well.

I know I don't comment much but I'm still really enjoying reading about the rolls.

Hugs friend. Tantrumy kids are so draining on parents. It's soo hard to do what you are doing. You were very wise to let it all out with your husband and take a day off as an actual day off and rest.

So glad you got to sleep, hydrate, and nutrate within such a close window of each other.

I like Kishi too, and am glad you're encouraging him to be nice to himself.

I hope you find comfort and good coffee soon.

I had to roll up my sleeves today cause it was too warm outside.

That sounds rough. I hope you feel better soon. In what is becoming outmoded country-folk slang, feeling sick can be called "feeling puny" I hope you stop feeling puny soon.

Today is a good day. Work was fine. I'm on call tonight, and I got a call right at 5pm, so no cooking. Got home in time to eat the subway I picked up and help with bedtime. Stroll done, stretch done.

Gremlins suck.

Happy Anniversary!

HOAs suck. I'm sorry yours is so bad.

Dang, I hope you heal soon.

Glad your Aunt got out of the ICU. I hope your headache goes away and stays gone.

Thank you. I hope you are able to get out soon. 💚 It was. It's a good place to be for food. I've joked before my recipe book is just looking at all my challenges. All hail the lateral approach. Here's to flanking our brain gremlins.

This is normal. Our emotions are easier to let go of if we let them out. Your feelings are valid.

How has the first part of the week gone?

Following.

That stinks. I hope your sleep gets sorted.

What shall we send her? Maybe some benadryl to give to the other people in the house so she can make them sleep?

Today is a good day. Got stroll and stretch in. It feels good. Dinner was very good. I chopped some pork chops and cooked them in a little toasted sesame oil with salt. In a saucepan I combined 1/2 c hoisin, 3 tbsp rice vinegar, 3 tbsp water, 2 tbsp minced garlic, and 1/4 tsp ground ginger. I whisked that together and let it cook, then put it in the skillet with the pork and stirred. I served that over brown rice and topped it with sesame seeds. The side was peanut slaw. I put peanut butter and soy sauce in a bowl and mixed together with some water, then added chopped green onions, thinly sliced red bell pepper, and a bag of coleslaw base. I stirred it and served it with peanuts. It was amazing. The green onion balanced perfectly with the pb and soy sauce. It was awesome.

All hail the queen! As royalty you are legally allowed to order the execution of your i.postor syndrome.

This makes me happy for you.
