I like talking to people about the things that interest them. People are interesting! I pick up heavy things and put them back down, and I run when no one is chasing me. Love #books, #knitting, #outdoors, #weightlifting, #running and #baking.

Happy to shout virtual moral support in your direction.

I noticed last night how frustrated I was with an interaction I had with a coworker.

My automatic reaction is to that is to check if I am justified in my anger, either with others or with myself, like I need to be sure I have permission, and to make sure that I am not the problem.

Basically, to make sure my frustration is "allowed"

Is there a word you'd call a younger sister? Like, in English, we might say sis or pest or something. Pest wouldn't be gendered and the answer doesn't need to be gendered either but the person saying it is like ... 200 years old if that's a factor. I don't need like scholarly answers and please don't research on my behalf.

The automatic translation feature in Zoom was not impressed with my rendition of Psycho Killer (qu'est-que c'est)

It was the most French I could think of in short notice

Today's #workout

5 rounds of
12 trx rows
12 weighted box steps
60 seconds jump rope

Mostly good except for the round where my jump rope came unscrewed from the handle part way through.

I was briefly worried that I was hard to work with after a touch call with a colleague until I remembered that I'm literally in therapy to be less prone to people pleasing.

I'm pretty sure I'm fine.

Can #AskFedi help solve the mystery of the rocks in our pool?

For the last 2 weeks, we’ve found rocks like these in our pool most mornings. They are similar to rocks used decoratively in our backyard, but the rock section is far enough away that they aren’t just falling in.

This tracker has the following options for moods: happy, stressed, tired, anxious, confident.

How am I supposed to express my multitudes with that?!

So many robins with so much to say this morning. It's finally warm enough to drink some coffee outside.
Q: Do any of you keep a digital journal? If so, what app do you use? What kind of things do you write about? And what benefits do you get from the experience?

Random body sensation question: I occasionally feel like my muscles are on the verge of cramping. It doesn't hurt exactly, and I don't want to move them. It's like a little almost cramp.

It tends to happen when I'm sleeping or on air planes. I can deal with it by tensing and relaxing the impacted muscles over and over.

It's really infrequent.

Anybody else encounter this?
