Cub camp again tomorrow. Virgil might be too sick to go and it would feel so damn weird to go without him, but I don't want to flake on the rest of the group as adult numbers are tight on this one.

I'm taking my dad's van that he literally begs me to borrow, but picking it up involved listening to his anti indigenous racist hot takes that bled into his anti cyclist conspiracy theories and then getting literally tricked into seeing my mother.

An ultra extended flowchart for identifying dynasties! Even identifying sub-periods of each dynasty. As always, this is a general guide ther

does the makeup look sad or happy? >>> goth & sad >>> middle tang dynasty [lmao]

Somehow got a bruise on my chin while at camp and I'm very confused about where it came from.

Trying to take a picture of it that isn't just up my nose lmao

#old person problems?#didn't have this chin bruise for sure on Friday and probably not yesterday #did a kid headbutt me?#sleeping bag zipper somehow?#I really don't like not knowing because it just seems like a super weird spot

Broccoli Knuckle Duster by David Delahunty

My 8 year old is scream crying at bedtime because of a bad sunburn. We gave him painkillers before bed last night but didn't think about it tonight until after the scream crying began. I'm taking him camping tomorrow. Packing the painkillers and crossing my fingers this isn't the worst ever.

#I'm going with one other adult and 8 kids as a sub unit in a much much larger camp and I'm already very nervous about it #ugggggh

Trying to figure out the right-for-me amount of interactions with my own parents & with Yan's mom (who he didn't talk to, but I facilitate visits between her and the kids) is super frustrating. Because I think my ideal amount really would be no interactions. But their correct amount would be a lot more. My parents would want a weekly visit. Yan's mom would want daily video calls and pictures plus monthly visits and sleepovers. And then kids side with me - they don't give a crap about grandparents. So like, I don't even know why I stress so much about it.

#I've been ignoring MIL texts for like two months now and I partially feel guilty #but I also feel resentment that she's pressuring me to feel that guilt #like I don't owe anyone texts #but also society kind of expects adult children to be staying in contact or whatever more frequently than this I think?#so I'm being guilted by society as I imagine it?#I hate it here #I don't want to text her #it feels so invasive and I'm bad at it

Poorly placed and timed rip on the back of my pants & scrap fabric reinforced Frankenstein stitch repair. Structural repair complete. But part of me wants to keep going - embroider more around the repair and maybe up onto that one pocket. But choice paralysis makes it hard to work on (too many possibilities) and I don't want to be half way through anything particularly involved on a day when I want to grab and wear these. I only own two other pairs of casual pants so these can't sit out for too long.

#visible mending #work in progress?#I'll probably let these rest as is until after next weekend's camp and then reassess

Thanking the ghost of Queen Victoria for my 4 day weekend.

#had to work 5 whole days (from home in my pajamas) last week #not sure how I'd be recovering otherwise rn if I didn't have 4 days to nap #only goal today is to finish one small mending project so they I have pants to wear camping next weekend

this job market is a fucking nightmare

Kids went to my parents house without us tonight for my mom's birthday. They came home with like 3 giant boxes of tim bits, a margarine tub full of maple walnut cake, and an entire meat lovers pizza.

The pizza has me fuming like the last year of therapy hasn't fixed me lmao

The kids won't eat it. I'm vegetarian. And Yan will eat it reluctantly after picking the bacon off because he doesn't eat bacon. Who did they buy this for and why did they think we would want it😭😭😭 I'm seriously so angry.

#and my fake almond mom yoyo dieter will ugly laugh and say my family only eats unhealthy food so it has to go home with us #I'll stress eat the terrible donuts and weird nut cake but what the serious fuck is this gross ass meat pizza 😭😭😭😭😭😭#they're just giving us their garbage #like we're a compost bin who are expected to say thank you #ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh #how do you not know what your family members eat?!

#finished watching Fate Chooses You today #it was a point against the show that I was stretching my memory trying to remember the universe/politics/characters from Moment But Forever #because I think I liked that one more but I don't remember remember it you know #and I was waffling about whether I need to rewatch Moment now on the heels of the prequel show to understand any references better #waffling waffling #and then I suddenly remembered the little gold eating baby #I had to google to confirm but yes that's where he was from #rewatch it is #see if gold eating baby still gets me a second time through #reasonable things
