Too much revolves around: changing filters, doing dishes, laundry, and paying bills.

I demand more pillow forts, s'mores, and board games!

I suppose I should have given you the head's up.

Last week, I put away my lawn mower and pulled out my snowblower from the shed, because it's almost November and 'you never know' in Ontario.

So naturally, it will be 19c (66.2f) and sunny today... just as we all predicted.

gettingunstuck, to productivity

Hi everyone, would you be so kind and share some things that help you move forward if you feel stuck? It could be an idea, an app, an image, a song, an action or whatever else gets you moving.

Don't hesitate to share things that seem too easy or trivial to you. They might be the biggest aha-moment for someone else.

If you find this helpful, please consider boosting for wider reach.

I don't know who needs to hear this but it is completely OK for you as an adult to buy yourself an advent calendar.

Any kind. Not just makeup or whiskey. You can buy a calendar with Spiderman toys if that's what you want. It's kind of the entire point of being an adult.

(Also, if you did buy a fun calendar, and you want to nerd out about it, please share :) )

The cats (Oreo and Mr Minx) took down our wall tree last night, maybe they hate Christmas. So today I have to figure out a new Christmas tree for the house. I'm thinking wire might be the answer.

It's Hell Week for everyone at the office. Then this happened:

Fundraising Team: Oh, don't forget you need to film a pitch video for BIG FUNDER.

Me: [effing stressed] Can we do a puppet show.

My boss: [equally stressed] Or an animation of our dogs with their mouths moving. This is all too much this week so why not.

Me:[deliriously brainstorming] Or a Zoom recording of a Banana and a Mushroom pitching a Potato on systems change.

recent Adulting discovery, insulated stainless steel drinking vessels are SUPER worth it

Cold mug of water I left over a full day ago in my bedroom is still cool. Never sweats. No worries about plastic breaking down/leeching of course.

And not as hot/cold to the touch either. I replaced my hospital mugs and my work tumbler.

edit: oh, and both the kinds I got are impressively leak-proof if sealed properly! Makes me extra annoyed at my mimosa bar bottles.The seals suck

10:30am and we've already worked through all the lessons on my kid's virtual classroom...

Now what? LOL

#Today #Adulting #BensonUpdate

On a scale of 1-10, today's Adulting reached a solid 48.

Meanwhile, between 1 - 4.30 pm, this was me and Benson:

Me: MOMMY IS WORKING NOW.

Benson: Noms and Tweatttttttttsssssss.

I literally poured a hard cider during my last call of the day.

It's only 6pm and I'm in my comfy clothes already. I started my day at 3am, had an extended family breakfast from 8:30-10am, cleaned the house, replaced some window screens, and cut and trimmed the lawn. Basically, a day of adulting, my battery is running low. I hear bacon sizzling in the pan, so at least there's that. 🥓

Have a wonderful evening everyone! 🙂 I'm hoping for TV in bed if I get my way. 🤞

I never knew how little free time I would have after becoming a father and homeowner.

Unless I wake up at 5am and go to bed at 2am, I don't have any time for myself for self-care or side projects & interests...

Adulting... ugh

#3GoodThings

  1. New hot water bottles arrived! They have cute little sweaters to keep them extra warm. 🤩 Now me and the kids each have our own again.
  2. An unexpected new delight: Michelle Sagara's Shards of Glass. Magic school/dark academia, and no need to have read anything else set in that world first. Loving it!
  3. Fiiiinally got my market list out, and replied to a few long-overdue emails. #Adulting.

question: De-smellifying trash cans, specifically ones exclusively for litterbox waste?

I got some really good tight-sealing trash cans that control the smell very well, except they're SO well sealed that the inside is like...nuclear. Tried spraying one down on the inside with some Method cleaner and didn't seem to matter much. Airing it out with the windows open, also limited effect.

Hello friends, I hope you're all having a good Hump Day! Mine is pretty good, I'm off work. We bought a new stove today with delivery this coming Saturday. It was under $1k for the stove, delivery and hauling away the old one. It could have been worse, my wife loved this BlueStar commercial model, it was on sale for $10k...

Have a great afternoon, I'm off to help my wife with a project.

Ladies,
Despite my best efforts, I am still unable to read my wife's mind.

Sooo... what does a 40y/o wife want for Christmas? I need ideas... as I spent all my money and creativity on Christmas lights this year...

Ps.: Don't say oral 😎 😋

My 6y/o kid likes to save the shipping packaging from our online orders for crafts. She flattens them and puts them away in the basement.

She hasn't made a single craft yet. I'm starting to think she's just a hoarder.

We just finished painting the living room. Adulting on a holiday weekend is great. 👍🤬 I told my wife this is blasphemy, my working on New Year's Eve's Eve.

When your neighbors are having a fight and she's screaming at him and it's clear that he fucked up, and you're trying not to listen, but also making sure to pay close enough attention so you'll know if you need to de-escalate. #adulting

A gentle reminder to all the adults that forget things and also think they are indestructible: wear eye protection when playing nerf gun battles because age does not in fact mean appropriate aim is actually a thing. -sincerely, my right eye.
