I realized today I haven't had a day off since September 3 and I am so excited for this 45 minute break with coffee and homework at a nice cafe 💖

One of my mom's dogs died suddenly and unexpectedly today. 11 years old, no health problems, completely fine and normal all day--left alone for 30 minutes, came back home and he was curled up in his favorite spot dead. He was a great dog and I'm so sad and simultaneously desperately need to hold all of my dogs.

I'm getting resentful and frustrated and exasperated with their complete inability/refusal to make even the smallest positive change in their life, tired of feeling like it's my job to bring them up all the time. I try to emotionally disengage and let them handle their own life, but then we just end up in joint quiet misery :/

I am getting really burned out on caretaking. Not doing a good job of being a partner to someone with completely untreated depression.

I found an Irish ballads playlist on Spotify and I am going to be reliving my youth for the next many car rides. The Parting Glass is still one of my favorite songs it turns out

But seriously check out this quality dog

My job is working with dogs and I have a boarding puppy living at my house right now and three of my own dogs and I'm currently working seven days a week. And I still get excited when I see a dog in public 😻

My really awesome sister has a story published! Please buy and read and love it if you like eerie/spooky things. Hers is called "Hum." https://www.amazon.com/Utter-Fabrication-Historical-Buildings-Structures-ebook/dp/B0759NLCZ6/ref=dp_kinw_strp_1

After being someone who walks dogs, I'm learning that normal humans walk at about 75% of my optimal walking pace.

Does anyone else play MtG? Especially online? I just picked it up again after not playing for like 15 years and it's still super fun :)

Maybe I should start using this too instead of just reading? Hi :)
