Baby Emma is here and both she and my sister are healthy.

Kind of an in and out day, between some kids’ stuff, counseling, a swim meet, and of course I’ll pop over to the hospital to visit them.

Awww yay baby Emma! Hope they’re all doing well. Enjoy the auntie snuggles.

Day 3 of the boot and I’m bummed. I know it’s only a few weeks but it’s such a bummer. I’m going to try and figure out how to prop it up which I cycle. I’m sad because baby J and I would get up early and I’d run with him in the stroller. I know we’ll do it again it was just the best start to the day.

I'm finally getting it together for the week. I went backpacking with my sister over the weekend and didn't come home until Monday, so yesterday was a mess. The trip was really great! It wasn't nearly as hot up there as it is here, but I still don't think I want to do that in summer again. The bugs were unreal, especially the ticks. We did see two bears Monday morning which was so cool, even if it freaked me out a bit. And I saw a big rattlesnake which was not as cool. There are about 80 miles of the AT in Georgia, so I think we're going to try to do one more trip in the fall to finish them off.

Not much else going on around here. It was really nice to have an escape from the dumpster fire that is the world as we know it and am still avoiding news.

Yay baby! Congrats @ei34! Healing vibes to mamma and I hope babe settles in to her new life easily!

I'm sorry about the boot @charlotte989875. I'm glad you went in and didn't ignore it. I totally know it sucks though. Sending you fast healing vibes!

Your hikes sound great! @mynameisnot. I had to scale back hiking and now it's hotter than hell out so it's less than ideal. I miss it.

Work today and it's busy. It's my Dad's birthday. It's a bummer it's so close to last week but I am glad it didn't happen on the day of or a day or two before. He's feeling really sad today. I am feeling pretty tired and almost on the verge of getting sick. I took this morning off of my walk, but I think I'll try and exercise a little after work. Otherwise SSDD, well, as much as it can be.

It is HOT and hopefully the last day of a short heatwave. Yesterday I watched the car thermometer hit 100 which is very hot for a coastal NE town and it's cancelled both baseball last night for Chiquito and soccer this morning for Chiquita.

We're still waiting for more bloodwork for DH and hoping that starts to put us in a better direction. The hardest issue is figuring out if he's feeling awful due to stopping SSRIs and is there a better medication for him? Is there a different type he should go on? What can we do so this guy can sleep after 5:30 when sleeping later was previously his superpower?

Our anniversary is Monday and I think we're gonna lay low. It'll be 18 years and that is the porcelain anniversary. I found an anniversary card commemorating the year with a toilet on it.

DD should be here with the boys within the hour. I got all my working out in this morning along with my PT exercises. I'll definitely get the PT done while they are here but cardio is iffy.

Today should be our last day of this insane heat. I hope so because we have out door activities we want to do and 100' is just too hot for this Nana!

Congratulations on the new niece @ei34 enjoy those baby snuggles. @levioosa I'm so sorry you are having to deal with this tragedy. Take care of yourself and do what you need to do.

Try not to push yourself too hard, @levioosa. Grief is a helluva burden on the body too. Big soft hugs and encouragement.

I have given up and gone back to Factor. Right now, the entire process of eating is just too much. My budget doesn't have rent/utilities in it now, so I'm just paying the price. It tastes good, it's easy to heat up, and there are lots of high protein options for me. IDK if it's depression, heat, both, or something else, but I could just not eat right now and feel mentally fine about it.

Otherwise, SSDD. No big plans incoming.
