The world is feeling especially grim lately.

@Ashedryden @andymcmillan It just came back for me, and the documentary is excellent. I think I’ve watched it three times.

@Ashedryden when we were chatting at XOXO I had taken a phone call from my contractor. He told me he wasn’t going to be able to start my kitchen project until December.

Turns out he couldn’t start till December ‘25. And the project keeps getting delay after delay but the electricity and plumbing will be ready end of week!

Most of the wall tiles were attached today (sadly Fireclay didn’t send us all the tiles we ordered so… another delay).

But it’s so beautiful!

@Ashedryden got a video of my 94yo grandmother cracking coconuts with a machete.

@Ashedryden I’ve tried to distract myself from the bad by diving into baking and improving my skills… and I have! And I get a delicious reward because of it. (Most of the time. )

[rjayasinghe@chaos.social]

@Ashedryden Just got back from a trip to Anza-Borrego. The desert was beautiful. Did some interesting hikes, marveled at the stars, and saw a modest display of wildflowers.
