O, Posse! My Posse!
It just ain’t happening today!
Try as I might, the Forces that Be keep coitusing with me, sucking all the lifeforce out of my soul. Here’s a sample of What’s Happening Now (and it’s barely noon!)
- Renovation drama – nothing TOOOO dramatic but my nerves are already at Eleven and… well, one of the floor jacks came undone (I suspect they just kinda ‘put’ this one … somewhere… because it wasn’t deemed essential… and… oh, well.
- It hit my Master Electrician on the shoulder. Luckily he is 6’4″ , a skoshe under 400 lbs and, when I asked him if he was all right he just looked at me as if he’d forgotten what he just said (he did. Forget.). I guess it was like getting hit with a stick – by a 2 yr old. He’s fine. But the floor jack has to be anchored in. Not Today, Satan! Contractor is jammed – they’ll be here tomorrow.
- (see? No Biggie. But I really don’t like that sort of construction drama since, where I do my rent career, that can be really catastrophic)
- Laptop, wherein lies my life, is WonkyAF today – it’s shut down 3 times. So. Not really in the mood to wrestle with it.
- Logistics. Always a drama. Always. Logistics on a Monday? My Worst Nightmare. And yes. It is. I will prevail – but it’s The Labours of Musette right now.
There’s more… but it’s all in the same vein and I just Can’t. It’s soaring up to 95F in a minute and …. ew
I was going to talk about Hinoki and its siblings – but if you don’t mind, I’ll do that on my next Tuesday when Life has, hopefully, settled down.
Please don’t hate me – I’m just in Can’tland right now.
xoxoxo
Sending you wishes for easier days. We will happily wait for your next insights – they’re well worth waiting for!
what a lovely thing to say! thank you!
Oh, hon — you have a LOT going on right now! And Mercury retrograde is messing with everything. Fortunately you are YOU, and you have your “team” and you will be okay!
and I am SO fortunate to have YOU as part of my ‘team’!!!
Oh honey, how frustrating!
I woke up yesterday with covid, so there’s that. And Humana kicked my mom out of the rehab center where she’s been for (only) two weeks, so I need to be taking care of her at home right now and I…..can’t. No perfume since my nose is not having it. Hang in there Ms A!
Oh noooooooo! Everyone is getting COVID right now, I hope you are doing okay, and things work out with your mom. <3
Me? YOU! My darling girl – you take good care of you so you can then take care of your mom.
and you hang in there, too!
xoxo
You need to look after you (and contractors) in all this. Reburb work is so stressful — you never know what you’ll find.
Luckily I have these amazing people to help me through this. I trust my contractors implicity! I feel so very fortunate.
Oh my dear perfume friend! So sorry to hear you are mired in the land of Can’t. What a bummer. Sending light and hugs and spritzes of Mitsouko and/or No 5 your way to clear the bad spirits and get things back to the land of HunkyDory.
Ooooh! Thank you! I think I’ll wear No5 tonight…
Hate you? Cannot happen.
Lately our wonderful writers here have been coming up with some great lines that I am mentally saving. You did it today with the Forces that Be keep coitusing with me. Love it! And so true for all of us.
Alas, yes. Luckily they don’t seem to coitus with all of us at the same time!!!
Glad that line is worth saving for you (h/t to Sheldon Cooper for ‘coitus’ 😉
Some days you just C A N ‘ T. You’re allowed.
Give yourself a little treat. An ice cream. A cocktail. Imagine someone under indictment. Something soothing. You deserve it.
Okay – you win! That made me BLART!!!
HUG HUG HUG
Love you Musette.

Can’t land can be a shit show after a storm of shit shows, large or just nigglin’ poops.
Ya just know them poops ain’t gonna clear themselves up. The “have to’s” always bear the want to’s into submission!
ain’ that the truth!
