You're doing an awesome job, thank you!

I legit thought that's what it was!

You'll have days like these, and this was definitely me yesterday when Little Man had kicked my ass all day long! Remember that's it's ok to say to your partner "tag, it's your turn", and take a break from everything for a little bit...even stepping outside for a 5 minute reset can make a huge difference to your sanity. It's important to look after yourself, or you're no good to anyone. ;)

3 months to tell someone is plain rude...you've dodged a bullet. Onwards and upwards to better things!

Self-serve checkouts are the absolute pits. I really hate how they've become in such widespread use.

Glad you've bounced back, welcome to feeling slightly more human again! :)

Seriously?! It's crazy how many earthquakes we've had in the past couple of years eh?

Little Man has absolutely kicked my ass all day. My partner was sick, so I gave up trying to get work done, and essentially followed a mini tornado around the house while doing chores...I have a splitting headache, tired and starving. Once we've gotten around to dinner, I've got soooooo much work catch up on. sigh

Exactly! There's so many platforms (for streaming and for social media) now, that I hardly bother with any of them...I've simply stopped giving a damn, and prefer to put my head into the real world, haha!

The number of times my partner will say to me, "did you see what I sent you on Instagram" or some other app, and I'm like nope! Haha!

I think social media has been on a gradual decline for a while tbh. Various platforms have done some awful things like algorithms, advertising bombardment, inciting hatred and violence, political interference, security concerns, child safety, stupid decisions from the powers that be, etc, and have ruined the experiences for users. People are right to question "the system" as it stands.

Without a serious rethink of what social media needs to be and how it can best integrate into people's lives (unlike the constant brain-fart ideas that have morphed it into what we see today), the decline into irrelevance will only accelerate.

Thought I'd join the masses over here...it's a lot busier, haha!
