Thank you. The bag of chocolate almonds on my desk is doing a lot of heavy lifting haha

It's entirely too much meeting. The formal agenda only goes until 8 but we were already 11 minutes late by 21 minutes in, so it's going to be a long morning.

Just yesterday my mum told me that once dad retires in a month there's "no way I'll be letting him sleep in until 9 every day" and that he can't "undo 60 years of getting up and having a purpose". Yikes.

This is so many wins, omg yesssss!

Oh good, we love that. So helpful.

That's so fair ❤️

I literally got a PhD in a subject that I expressed interest in as a 4 year old and stuck with because adults praised me for it for 25 years and now I don't know if it's what I want to do with my life. I feel like that's trying pretty hard.

Right? Both my parents need therapy. Dad I think would benefit from medication. But after 60 years, 30 of them together, how much do they want to change things?

Oof. Dad and I have very similar atoms/behaviours, but I do all mine behind a closed door because masking, and all of his used to annoy me So Much until I realised I did the exact same, but he's a man born in the 60s so he's not expected to have the same social graces as me.

Mum told me I couldn't possibly, just that I procrastinated everything, I'm just late for everything and too lazy to do a bunch of tasks.
She says dad can't possibly have it, because he spends all his time going down rabbit holes or addicted to stupid phone games.
Yuhuh. No way.

I'm so sorry. Sending much love.

Huuuuugs

Oh no, I'm sorry! But definitely rest up, RSI suuuucks.

Right? So dumb!
