All time high (not just for the date) in Portland two days in a row. Might be going for a third new record tomorrow? Stay safe, PNW.

Anyone else craving pancakes today? #ButterMV @BTS_twt

I cleared out literally over half of my clothes (I counted). Anything that didn't fit, was uncomfortable, ripped or stained, or I just hadn't worn in a couple of seasons is in a big pile to exit the house. Getting dressed is so much simpler now I don't have to look past all that.

If the last year has taught me anything, it's that I only have five pieces of clothing that I really like to wear. The rest of my wardrobe could just disappear and it wouldn't matter.

Got my JNJ #CovidVaccine today. 💉

My husband "at" his mother's funeral today. He shaved and got dressed up in a suit even though no one would see him. 😢

Finally got the new dishwasher installed yesterday, and you know what that means: I get to establish the "right" way to load this dishwasher for all eternity. It's a great responsibility but I'm ready.

My MIL passed away today. I hope she is at peace. That's three grandmas gone for my girls in three months (incl my grandmother in Dec and my mom in Jan). 20-21 has been a tough winter.

People suck. I costume the Nutcracker and we were just about to film the postponed show. I spent countless hours altering and sorting and fixing and cleaning these costumes. A tough and pointless loss to swallow, especially with everything else happening. kptv.com/news/costumes-worth…

11 months in, New Social Distancing Level Achieved: I went into the office on a Saturday so I could catch up on filing...and I really enjoyed it. So relaxing.

Second day of the semester. Me, parenting: Okay, let's try this. No overdue assignments, I won't regulate your phone. Anything missing, no phone until you catch up. 14yo: Why are you trying to run my life? Me: ... 14yo: It's not fair. Me: You aren't even behind ye-- 14yo: Mean.

I don't know how many times this week I've picked up my phone to text or call Mom, mostly about how down I am about losing her or where I put her stuff in my house. Of course, I still occasionally think about texting Dad and it's been 17 years, so guess it'll be a while yet.

Adult PSA: #getorganized Mom's been gone for 8 days, and she's still making our lives easier. We found hidden cheat sheets with every account's sign in, password and verification questions answers. Papers, bills and tax stuff were sorted. And she'd even written her own obituary.

Lost my mom this morning. 💔

I'm just over here hyperventilating at the fact that I have an 18yo. 🤯 Whoa. Happy birthday to my adult daughter. 😍

Me: Huh, 2021 is looking familiar... *checks downloads* *finds 2020(1)* Me: F**k, I knew it.

Resigning now isn't a statement, it's basically not working out your two week notice.

Hello, 2021, The bar is low. Please don't trip over it. Sincerely, Everyone who experienced 2020

I walked into 17yo dd's room a couple days ago and she was watching Bridgerton. I said, "Oh yeah, that's Julia Quinn's series," and she's confused. "Did you watch it? How did you know?" Ended up explaining how shows come from books and a thing called Twitter. She was not amused.
