Tough week medically. Both kids got sick and we're in a medication transition. Very tough and unstable.

It snowed yesterday and I walked along the Muddy. Today I went to the gym. Still finding it hard to do yoga.

We're slowly getting ride of things through Buy Nothing Brookline. It turns out the monitor I got won't work but I moved my Mom's TV into our room. This will make for less stress around evening entertainment, I hope.

Looking for a rug too. And we need a new oven. I want to buy these things soon before the country falls apart. What will add value to our lives? 

This is the final few days of college apps. It will be good to have it behind us. Like Satan.

It's another COVID high season, so we're not eating indoors and I'm being more cautious about masking. Not sure it will ever end but we know what to do.

The horrible fires in LA are very upsetting. The clouds get lower and lower. Visibility diminishes.

My morning mantra was prepare for worse and hope for the best.

rivervox: (hello 46)
On this World AIDS Day, I am reminded that I went through college thinking we were all going to die of AIDS. I went through my teens thinking we were all going die in a nuclear war. I never thought I'd live past 30. Didn't even think about it. Now I'm 47 and realizing that I need to plan for a long life. Not just living for the moment, or getting through the days, but actually making thoughtful choices that will help make the next 47 years as pleasant and interesting as possible. Hey Gen Xers, we're still alive! What the hell do we do now?
