Having a hard time focusing today. Sometimes I just want to quit my job and do something really simple and spend my mental capacity on something I care deeply about.

“Hell is other people”

Pizza night!

‘My daughter once asked her 99-year-old grandfather what his secret to a long life was. His response: ‘Eat a lot of fatty meat, don’t exercise and be sure to curse out anyone who deserves it.’ ://

“Avoiding stupidity is easier than trying to be brilliant. “

Cold night, good curry.

“Take a step back and ask ‘What is my actual goal here? How would I define a Win?” ://

A very sad day in our house. Chewy, the queen of sass, passed away in the kids’s arms after a long battle with pneumonia. Thanks for the memories Chewy.

We’ve decided to send our kids back to school tomorrow. With hardly any new COVID cases lacally in the last 10 days despite wide-scale testing and with the number of active infections low, the risk to them is low. Will be keeping a very close eye on the statistics though.

It was not easy, but I’ve killed of my sourdough starter today. Flour is a commodity buddy and you’re just too flour-hungry. 😢

Billions of dollars made available in financial support during the COVID-19 maddness, but I’ve not seen a single cent even remotely aimed in my direction. The only money I’ve saved was on fuel due to not having to drive to work, and on coffee as my fav coffee shop is closed.

Oh no, my 10 year old is watching Dr Pimple Popper again!

“Coronaviruses have historically been hard to make safe vaccines for, partly because the virus infects the upper respiratory tract, which our immune system isn’t great at protecting.”

I went to the office today for the first time in weeks, forgetting that I allowed the kids to give me an isolation haircut a few days ago. 😬

Weekend sorted!
