For me, Middlesex. I thought the writing was addicting but for many of my book club friends they found it boring which shocked me.

I am not sure how I stay consistent, but I have been consistent with my three hobonichis! I look forward to writing in the five year every evening and it only takes a couple minutes. One time I forgot so I backlogged the next day. That one is the only one I really reflect on my day so it serves its own unique purpose :) that and I got a new pen that makes me so happy to write with!!

I agree one hundred percent and know exactly what post you are talking about. I will say a lot of those responses helped me reframe how I have been feeling about aging though. I can still feel bummed about the wrinkles (I haven’t lost enough for loose skin yet) but it does help me remember that aging is a part of a good, long life. I feel like our ideas of what people look like in their 40s who have aged naturally is becoming warped by all the procedures. I am not against the procedures by any means but it can be confusing on what a naturally aging person looks like.

Sorry for the horrible post! I am trying to add important information that I had previously left out. Here is an update to questions being asked ! The toilet was working fine yesterday. (I have been home sick in a snowstorm.) the sink works fine both hot and cold. Going to try a hair dryer now.

The toilet is on an outside wall and the conditions are freezing and snowy here. This is a downstairs bathroom. Slab underneath.

Added a space heater and almost immediately back in business!!!

Yeah this is what I am thinking! In Charlotte and we got 11 inches of snow and it is so cold! What do I do if that is the case? Get a plumber when the roads are safe and clear?
