 I know, I’m posting twice in a month. It’s a Christmas in September Miracle!


So I’m going to take a break from the social media, I think. I think I’m done with the nastiness, pettiness, and judgmental posts telling everyone else that they aren’t doing enough to support whatever (because if they did good stuff, how would anyone know unless they could plainly see it on the person’s Facebook or Instagram or Twitter or whatever else? Obviously no one could ever do anything privately, without announcing it to the virtual world).


All the sides. All of them. We are ridiculous.


Social media posts can be nice and cute and encouraging, but I think too many people, myself included, forget that there’s so much we can do in the real world. There are people here, in our very own towns, who need help. Including us. Also, instead of pointing fingers at everyone else, maybe think about what we can do ourselves.


I don’t know. I don’t have answers. My life is definitely not in order right now, and I think the social media barrage doesn’t improve my quality of life at all. So, a break. For sure  


 Definitely had to announce that one publicly. Keep myself honest, haha.

 Okey dokey. It’s September and the last month has been chock full of hotness, people being bitchy about mask wearing, and wind. Oh, and not going on vacations and generally going to work, going to my Dad’s, and staying home.


That’s it. That’s the world we all live in now.


Did I mention the hotness? Because wow. Ninety plus degrees in September? What? And then last night it drops into the 40s and this morning, there’s snow on the ground. Snow. For reals. But we can’t turn on the heat, as it’ll be eighty degrees again in a few days.


I feel like this week’s weather is a perfect start to Autumn 2020. Crazy, unpredictable, and irritating as it can be. Thanks, global warming.


Also, everything is on fire, so we can’t really have outside time unless I’m willing to pay for it with truckloads of snot and itchy eyes. And it looks like it’s that way everywhere. I have a feeling it’s going to get worse before it gets better.


Also, I have a headache and I have to go to work today and I don’t wanna.


Also also, I’m feeling whiny and maybe I need a nap.


Also also also I know it’s clichéd to say so, but 2020 really is a big old dumpster fire. And that is all.
