was a little cranky and abrupt with 4yo this morning (we’ve been fighting a lot in general) but then i said “oh i don’t think i had enough hugs this morning to get rid of the grumpy” and she said “‘ME NEITHER” so we had a little cuddle on the floor, which made things a lot better for both of us 🥹

spent all morning doing chores and untangling tax spreadsheet and hunting down receipts and undeposited cheques and look. things are still not TIDY around here but at least they're CLEAN now.

It’s International Owl Awareness Day, a day I wasn’t aware of despite my constant awareness of owls. Here’s a Procreate portrait I sketched a while back of Rusty, a local captive/educational long-eared owl. Owls rule! #birds

A black and white digital sketch of a long eared owl. The bird is seen from the side, wide-eyed and bill open.

i need a day off so bad like a real day off, not a day where i have to do a few things, or a day where i take my kid to the zoo or something. i mean a day where i lie in bed and eat snacks while watching x-files by myself and have no obligations. i’m so TIRED.
