CIRCLE WITH A DOT

Just about emerging from what was easily our most stressful week in five years. The good news is I now know how many months we can survive on one salary.The better news is that it was a near miss, and we’ve both come through the week with our jobs intact.I’m not naturally the most resilient when it comes to this kind of stress, so I think I just need to give my nervous system a little time to catch up with the fact that we’re okay.#3GoodThings #ThreeGoodThings #Gratitude

2 quick things.I bought stuff in the RSC shop because I'm a sucker for merch. The guy serving me had a semi-colon tattooed* on his wrist so I said I liked his tattoo and that I'm glad he's here. He seemed really bloody pleased I said that.And then there was the show itself. When people talk about there being good things around the corner and you don't want to miss out on the next thing you're going to love, I never believed them. That was nonsense. Nothing new or exciting is waiting for me. But I just saw Kenneth Branagh on stage at the RSC. Kenny B! It was spellbinding (little Tempest joke there) and I'm so glad I was able to witness it. I'm so glad that that is now a part of the tapestry of my life. This is the kind of moment those people were talking about and I didn't see it coming until this morning.So *that's* why I had to stick around. I wonder what moment is waiting for me next?*This is a common symbol for someone who has had an "end" and a "beginning" in their life. Sometimes, not always, it signifies a suicide attempt and the tattoo is a sign that they survived.

@davidpostill That would actually not make me sad

#ThreeGoodThings1. I planted shallots in a friend's allotment, and came home with rhubarb stalks, with which I made a rhubarb-apple strudel.2. A friend came for dinner. My husband made beef stew with parsnips, swedes, carrot, tomato, and herbs.3. I gave my husband a nice, long foot rub while we listened to mellow music by candle light.#3GoodThings

@Flominator That sounds like a wonderful day!

@maxelcat I'm so used to reading on my phone that, when I don't know the meaning of a word, I find it hard to remember that I can't just press the word and to get taken to a dictionary entry.
