tired

I've been half-writing thoughtful posts for the last few days. My kiddos are sweet and weird and bratty and tired and I'm learning a lot from them this year, but I can't quite marshall my thoughts into anything coherent or insightful. I have languishing stories I'm pretending don't exist (as they whisper constantly at me). I'm seeing a lot of year-end and decade-end wrap-ups, and I want to reflect, but also, I just...don't.

Basically, my head is just two songs on repeat: "Tired" by NIve and "Numb" by Amber Liu.

But I've got a break coming sooooon. I'll get to see some snow, chill out with the doggos, my bestie, my sweet baby niece and holy terror toddler nephew, play Scrabble with my momma, hopefully just rest a little.

Hooray.
