OMG. the MLC Hs all in a real world house. I read your post last night and wasn't able to respond but giggled about it all day long. Can you imagine the monologues? And the arguments? I keep thinking of them being like totally huffy and disbelieving that this other dude DARES call out their reality... and it devolves from there. Hilarious. I think you have a good concept there... oceangirl, where are you??? we have another story for you to pitch!!!
I know how you feel about the anniversary approaching. I don't remember the exact date, but I think my 1 year BD for the ILYB is coming up or perhaps already passed... right around now, anynow. It feels weird. A year is a long time. But in some ways not much time at all. This COVID situation is definitely throwing off all sense of time.
My only advice for you... give yourself a break on some of this stuff, like finding a job. Yes, it is OK that you are feeling lost and afraid. I think a majority of human beings on our planet right now feel that way, and you have lots of good reasons. It is OK. Don't stress about it. You will find a way. Maybe not right away, but you will find something professionally that feeds your soul. It will happen. I have faith in you, and I know you do too.
((Cardinal)) I've been staying away from baking because I feel like I've been packing on the pounds this past month, but my younger daughter (the baker) is clamoring for brownies, so I think we're up for that this weekend. And thinking of making pasta. Keep us all updated on your latest baking adventures, ok?
