It’s 8:30 on a Sunday and I’ve already googled the following:

- how to propogate a prickly pear from a pad
- how to treat ant bites (luckily not fire ants)

This is life in Texas.

I thought that when I hit my 40s personality clashes wouldn't bother me as much as they still do.

Good thing I have fewer fucks to give and drop those issues faster.

If you're looking to buy a house and the cosmetic updates were prioritized over core systems updates (like HVAC or roof repairs), *don't buy it*. It's the same as buying a shitty flipped house.

"But your house is so cute!" Cool story Becky. The previous owners left illegal electrical junctions all over the house, and we're still finding them three years later, even after sinking $20k in electrical updates/fixes.

So it's now a trend to tie a handful of single strands of "tinsel" in your hair?

So they're little pieces of shiny hair.

Like little strands of gray or silver hair.

But only on-trend if you're <25

Cool. Cool.🙃 <rolls eyes in 47yo>

My anxiety dreams don't involve forgetting that you're in school and walking in having also forgotten that you're facing a huge test. Not anymore...

Now they're all about managing an overwhelming mountain of "stuff" - clothes, books, kitchen crap, knickknacks, old birthday cards, that kind of thing.

I guess it's a sign to do a little "Swedish Death Cleaning" and make my life lighter.

This is kind of twisted, but one of the benefits of being busy is not having the luxury of having too much time to second-guess yourself.

You just make a call or decision and move forward.👍
