We Needed Cheap And Easy Tonight So I Got Some Rotisserie Chicken And A Baguette From The Grocery Store

Lessons learned today: a good life doesn’t always look the way you think it’s going to look. Even if you don’t have all the big things you thought you would have, the little things are pretty damn good

So my six year old has been low key watching the LOTR films as I play them in the background while completing important tasks that use up a lot of my brain space.

Please note this child will not watch Disney movies because of the “scary parts”

Throughout the duration of the films she asks me back to back questions -with very complex and complicated answers.

I am equal parts proud, excited, and exhausted. Like, my brain is oozing from my ears - but I’m happy about it?

Listening to an audiobook and the narrator just said, “exiting the apartment, she tripped over an envelope” and I can’t get past it. How does one trip over an envelope.

A lovely little breakfast on this (finally) cool September morning

I decided to stop posting calories alongside my meals. Again, this stuff is mostly for my own reference to make things easier for myself. Almost like creating a menu for myself to look back on. Anyway, if I post it, it’s somewhere in the range of 350-500. This was lunch- potatoes, peas, and chicken sausage. Yes, I’ve been eating potatoes every day. Because po-tay-toes.

A cozy little snackeroo. Pro tip, keep those snackie veggies cut and washed in the fridge!

I went for a cozy walk today. It’s hot outside and I wanted to light a candle and walk in front of my tv so that’s what I did. I also downloaded this app that tracks your steps and you travel to fake Mordor, but I’m just using the free trial bc I haven’t decided if I want to buy the full version. With the trial you can only track one mile per day.

We tried to go for an outside walk after dinner but the halflings were being difficult and then we wound up getting in a conversation with our neighbors

Todays activity took me to the garden. I sowed some more seeds for the fall - radish, lettuce, and carrots for the third time.

Apparently carrots don’t germinate in temps over 80 degrees. I didn’t find that out until after the second attempt.

I’ll probably do a last harvest of my tiny peppers and giant basil this weekend and then take them out and maybe plant something else for the fall.

Oh and I accidentally grew some pumpkins from the ones I chucked out back last year 🎃

I’m on my third rewatch of Over the Garden Wall this season. It’s fine.

And that’s a rock fact
