And it happened...again. Lost a part-time job. It was not personal or due to anything related to me or my work. I never thought it would be this hard to exist in my 40s. Add in that the 40+ lbs I had lost is all back. The challenges keep freaking coming. I am so tired.
You know what I like? That one of my kiddos and their friend were talking about the heist at the Louvre. That they have a shared interest in this world news and are both fascinated yet also shocked that this could and did happen.

It’s funny that I don’t have enough brain power to finish some copywriting work, yet I do have enough to play chess. I mean, there are worse things to do when you cannot sleep and your fellow is traveling and not able to chat.
Sundays are kind of generally a tough day for me. I often get the sads. Today didn’t quite go as planned, and I know I’ll be alright. But I am of blown away by the generosity of people in my community. Divine timing is what it is.
It took just ten minutes — and 54 years later, it still stops traffic. The Beatles crossed Abbey Road #OTD in 1969. A handful of back-and-forths became the iconic album cover people are still recreating (and causing traffic jams for) today. Show us your cover recreations in the comments.
