Still crying over the fact that I only realized today that my birthday plans this year consist of doing my taxes hahahahaha 😭

Which means I might need to buy Gengar next 🫠
Isaiah has recently become obsessed with Pokemon and it’s the first time I’ve actually seen him want to bring a stuffed toy everywhere with him. We started with Charmander, but of course we had to get him more…
(However, I think Gengar is his favorite Pokemon at the moment!)
Was holding a container of blueberries at the grocery store this morning, and as I went to pay, I popped the lid open and spilled blueberries everywhere.
I think that’s a fair representation of how well I’m holding everything together today 😭
Been playing Hello Kitty Island Adventure so much Joe has to ask me to lower the brightness on my Switch so he can sleep. Whoops.
My second loaf turned out pretty OK! Such an investment of time, but seems like Joe and Isaiah are enjoying being my test tasters hehe.
This was from a few days ago, but 3 weeks after starting my starter (lol) we are ready for baking!
Now onto the fun part 😅
It has been an insanely busy past few months! Exhausted but feeling so so happy and honored to be a part of this journey in celebrating 25 years of The Sims.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I am going to go play the original and relive my childhood.

As an update, I still haven’t made bread yet but my starter is definitely at the point where it’s almost overflowing every 12 hours. The progress itself is exciting!
But now I should probably figure out a good recipe so I don’t mess it up haha.
Day 9? Slow and steady but we’re still bubbly! Also moved to a different container because the mason jar was getting annoying lol.
Going to take my time with this, even though some people have said to buy a starter. All part of the experience 😊
Welp, looks like she grew quite a bit!
LOL we are in this together then!
Is she a pro, can she share tips? Lol I am realizing I am investing time into this and may very likely fail the first few attempts 🤣
Sobbing!!! Congrats again you two 😭💖
Distracting myself by attempting to learn how to make sourdough bread.
I'm learning about this in real time so I will have more to say when I know what is actually happening.
In the meantime, please, please hire Tomas. He is one of the best in the entire game, and he's only been getting better at it every day. Snatch him up immediately.
Today, I was laid off from Digital Trends after three years with the company. I'm immediately open to any opportunities in journalism, PR or game dev. I would love to freelance and appear on podcasts in the meantime as well! If you'd like to reach out with an opportunity, DM me for my email!
Joe just texted me a reminder to eat because my schedule has been so crazy lately and I definitely forgot to eat one day 🫠
I’m curious to know how much hairstylists actually want to talk during an appointment. I lean more towards being quiet cause I hate interrupting their work, or making them yell over the blow dryer 🤣
Am I going to attempt to make bread now? Probably.
I don’t know how but my TikTok FYP is full of videos of women making sourdough bread… I ain’t mad at it.
Attempting to organize our house a bit more this year (and not live in constant chaos). I was way too excited to put together our new shoe cabinet today lol.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays 🎄♥️
This week has been ROUGH to say the least but so happy to finally see progress in our little bub!!!
Mama and dada are finally able to sleep now that Isaiah is feeling better, even smiling through his nebulizer treatments 🥲
Why is it that we have no information on the drones in Jersey! What is happeningggggg…
Just a reminder to hold your loved ones close, and to let them know how much you care ♥️ While we never know what lays ahead for any of us, at least we can create more meaningful moments and interactions while we’re here.
Losing a loved one is always hard, and as I’ve gotten older, it has taught me to take more time to call just to say “I love you”, or visit family just because. No special occasion needed. Because time is precious, and definitely something we take for granted every day.
Joe and I looked at our Spotify wrapped and confirmed our accounts no longer belong to us, they belong to Isaiah lol. (Yes, we are big Bluey fans!)
We had ramen for dinner last night and all I keep thinking about is how I want more for breakfast 😩
Lol my face was swollen from all the crying and at one point I couldn’t see what I was doing through the tears 😂 It def felt like torture for a good 10 minutes.
