The birth (or death) of a relative, the release of a new program, game, series, movie, the date you were dreaming about, could be anything

    My kid will go to summer camp soon and I’ll have a little bit of time again. Looking forward to it.

    The kiddo is over at the grand parents this weekend, so I got that house clean which is pretty exciting.

    I’m gonna go camping. Not sure where or where yet, but I’m gonna drive up into the mountains and spend a couple nights in the tent.

    I’ve been working every day since January. Every weekday, every weekend day, every day. But finally on June 15th I’ll be down to one remote job and can go sailing for a few weeks straight. I’ve finally sort of got my finances in reasonable shape, I’ve paid off my car, and have a little breathing room.

    Hmm. I just realized I haven’t been excited about anything in a long time.

    That sucks.

      I had a similar realization recently. When I was younger I’d be excited for something for months at a time, but now that I’m older I can’t really look forward to something until it’s right there.

      I’ve been trying to look forward to small things lately, even if it’s something small I’m doing for myself like a nice dinner. It helps

    I bought a steam deck and have been checking every day waiting for it to arrive… Or even be shipped! They finally packaged the damn thing!

    Got debt down from $18K to 6K in 8 months. Would be 1K if Colorado would ever approve our electric car rebate for 5K. Slow bastards.

    A long weekend to rest. I had a hysterectomy on the 1st and went back to work last week and by last night I was so sore. I’m feeling a lot better overall but sitting up for 8 hours a day was a lot harder than I expected. Having 3 days where I can lay down when I need to is really nice. Plus, it’s supposed to be really nice out, so maybe I’ll do some of the resting in my hammock.

      Good to hear you’re healing up well! My significant other is going to have the same procedure done shortly and it’s good to hear of overall timelines of healing and what to expect.

        If it’s laparoscopic, it shouldn’t be too bad. I spent pretty much the whole first week in bed napping off and on, other than short walks every couple of hours. The second week, I worked from home (still in bed) and had to lay down for a few minutes here and there, but felt a lot better. With ice packs and rest, I only needed to take anything for pain the first 4-ish days and then occasionally when I pushed myself a little too hard, and I never needed anything stronger than advil/tylenol.

        The only thing I wish I’d done was either taking higher doses of stool softeners or taking a laxative sooner - it’s unpleasant to talk about but trust me when I say your SO really doesn’t want to go several days without pooping when you can’t really push without feeling like you’re going to tear something important.

    Going home. I’m at some weekend festival to support a hobby my husband has become very passionate about. I’m incredibly happy for him and love that he’s found this but it’s just not my thing and I want to go home. Also some asshole at a party last night said something stupid to me to make me feel unnecessarily unwelcome and I really shouldn’t be letting it affect me. Anywho

    ETA I also really miss my dogs!

      Fuck that guy. He’s the problem, not you. Try to look at it from that perspective and you may ease your mind a little.

      Who does that? It’s horrible to treat someone like that.
