I am dragging. I did get better sleep for the first half of the night last night, but still not a restorative sleep. I had the last of the veggie burgers and GF buns last night, so if one of those 2 things were the cause, then tonight should be better?? Otherwise, it is this whackadoodle weather we are experiencing that is causing my poor sleep. The sun was warm enough to melt much of the snow we received yesterday where it was able to reach. The air temp was too cold to make a difference, so the north side of anything, including in the shadow of tree trunks where the sun was blocked, still has snow. For some reason, I am fascinated by the perfectly straight line cast by the garage. Anyway, today will be windy with gusts up to 60mph, then rainy/snowy tonight. And the a possible mega-snow event for the weekend. (Oh please oh please oh please hit Iowa instead!)

This govt spending absolutely disgusts me, from Heather Cox Richardson's Letters From an American. The gangsters cry crocodile tears about how there is no money to feed hungry people in this country, and yet they have money to feed themselves. So disgusting. But hey, let's hate trans people instead, who are doing nothing but trying to simply live their lives. With honey's young relative being a trans person, I am quite certain they would not have chosen this life. If they had a choice.

Speaking of honey's family, I asked honey where he wanted to go on a vacation this year. His reply? It is all on hold until he knows if his brother makes it through his cancer treatment. "Sooo, we're supposed to put everything on hold until we know if he is cured or not?" I asked. 'Well, if I'm going to have to travel to see my dying brother this year, that's the only traveling I'll be doing." He responded. Which I know is a lie, because he will take time off from work to go deer hunting. "But if he makes it through, we still don't take a vacation because he may or may not make it? Everything is on hold for us because of his health?" ​"Well, you go on vacation then. I'll join you if he's doing okay." He responded, irritated. It doesn't work that way, buddy. I plan a vacation with you or I plan a vacation with someone else. You don't get to just tag along at the last minute, I thought. So now I'm pissed. I think I'll look into excursions for single women.
