I am sorry for your loss I don't think anyone would fault you for not wanting to be around them. Could you do a half day? I wish, but I have to finish quarter close. My boss did barely any work on it while I was out...shocker. I hope work can be a little emotional distraction for you. It sucks you can't coast when you want to, but when my mom died, I found some comfort in clicking right back into work and the annoyances that come with it. I think it helped give my brain a break from sadness.

I think it actually might be good for my mental health to be getting back into a normal routine. I am so out of sorts because of all the events of the past week. So I feel like this might actually help to ground me a little bit, you know? Create some sense of normalcy.

My coworker just told me he brought in a bunch of homemade papusas. And just like that, I'm hungry for lunch already.

I know exactly what you mean. Everyone was surprised how fast I came back after my dad's passing, but it took my mind off of it and I worked with a lot of my friends so it was comforting.

Why do so many things just disappear from my life? I am looking for burp cloths to send my sister and I only found like 4 out of a bazillion and I don't know where they went. I don't know how I manage to misplace so many things - and my house is tiny, why can't I find things?

Dark chocolate covered raisins are so good. These are replacing candy/cookies for my lunch dessert long term. Yum.

So, Lugnut is 7 months old today. Since she's home, I took her monthly photos this morning. And the cats participated, (not) of their own free will . Pics behind spoiler.

I have found that exercise doesn't do a whole lot for my weight loss. It's absolutely huge in transforming my body, toning, shaping, etc. But I'd venture that 90% of my weight loss is due to what I'm eating. Exercise is the least effective way to lose weight.

I am racking my brain to remember if I already gave them away but I really don't think I did. I remember putting them away along with bibs and I found the stack of bibs but no burp cloths. I am really annoyed by it.

I know this is true, but it still pisses me right off. (Not at you, obviously, GM, at science.)

You can't outrun a bad diet. You can get ahead of it for a little bit, but it will catch you.

Yeah, I know why you need delivery, I'm just saying to spend your $ on something else tonight as dim sum will be much more enjoyable at a different time when you and DD can have a meal date where you see and pick your foods.

Which is why my mom hasn't lost any weight in the last couple years despite hours at the gym Ha. This reminds me of when my ex-SIL was working out to lose weight. My nephew was maybe 4 at the time. He asked where she was always going and why and she told him. He looked and her and said "It's not working".
