Shabbat Shalom, y’all. Today was a long day. On Fridays I usually do not have much planned and sometimes I take the day off. Lately, I haven’t been able to take time off from my own overthinking and I’m feeling a bit ashamed of how sensitive I am. Isn’t that sad? I am very sad. I am sensitive and I should not feel shame about that. But here we are. Too sensitive. Too much. A burden. Shame. It is so sad to acknowledge this, to say it here.

Changing the subject now, that shame talk is too fucking heavy. So, I’m watching two new shows that I am loving. Shrill and Love on the Spectrum. I have a few new books I need to read, but I am looking for a light book to help me through. When I was a teenager, I used to read Danielle Steele novels. I wonder if I would like those now. Also, I read a lot of the Flowers in the Attic series. Those have stuck with me. They are so eerie and strange. They still haunt me. Do you remember those? Do they still haunt you, too?

I just found out that the boys can do school virtually in the Fall. I am incredibly relieved. I was horribly stressed about it this week.

Theenie is an amazing source of entertainment. She’s become a part of our family. Sunny is still very shy, she stays in our bedroom. She is very loving with Aaron and I am her person. She does not tolerate Theenie at all. I think she’s very anxious and scared. Poor girl. Moko is as strange as ever. She and Theenie do interact with each other with minimal growling. They can get close, nose-to-nose. Theenie and Honey Bird are good friends.

Tomorrow is date night. I’m looking forward to a nice bike ride. Also tomorrow, I am going to clean the bathroom and mop the kitchen. I can hardly wait. Also, we are going to change the sheets on our bed. So fucking rad.

Sending you all the love. Stay safe and wear your fucking mask.
