Say Anything G is for Gnome

I went on a dinner cruise once, and they served champagne. I didn’t like it either.

I’m not into alcohol either. Hubby doesn’t drink a drop ever. I had a bad experience with it as a child (I didn’t sneak it, I was basically forced to try it by an adult), and now I can’t stand the taste. I also have that whole fear of barfiness thing going on. So even if I do drink something, I won’t have much. I don’t know what my limit is because I’ve never wanted to find out. Like I said, I’m good with a wine cooler but not much else.

It’s certainly better not liking alcohol than the opposite. There are so many good things to drink without alcohol.

My girls are chilling on the kitchen tile just staring at me. Everytime I turn around to type they chirp and begin purring. They are silly little girls!

I get easily tense. I studied yesterday 4-5 hours and now I feel tense. So, I decided to take a break for the day and do some exercise and walking.

How is everyone doing today?

Maybe you just pushed too much for a start. Maybe try an hour at a time.

Good morning.

Working on first cup of coffee. Wishing I could go back to sleep.

Have a good day!

I know. I get enthusiastic in my mind and then I overdo myself. I struggle to pace myself.

G’day peeps!

I slept super well. No issues. Woke up 40 minutes before my alarm.

Took a med with a soda and vaping.

Dad and I have to do a little shoveling today.

Saw the kitty. He seems happy.

Let’s not discuss the topic of alcohol unless in recovery context only. It can be triggering for those who struggle with it.

Okay, I’m butthurt. I was talking to my middle child (20m) about dinner plans for my birthday. He can’t come because he was invited to dinner by a friend’s parents. My oldest (23f) also won’t come because she picked up her Christmas presents a few days ago, so why drive across town? Sometimes, I’m tempted to not do anything for them. I go all out on birthdays and holidays, and lately, I’ve been wondering why. No one even said thanks for the Christmas presents they got. I spent months browsing websites and looking for stuff they may want, and it means nothing to them. I know I may be overreacting, but it really hurts my feelings.

I am sorry you are feeling underappreciated by your kids. It sounds like they have a very thoughtful mother.

If they always had the good Christmas gifts I can see why it is just a normal thing for them.

Stay strong. I will never have kids so I cannot say more.

That’s a nice thought, @Turtle44.

What injury are you recovering from? I’m so sorry I can’t recall. I hope you’re feeling better soon.
