    Just finishing up cooking 6 pounds of vegan scalloped potatoes (one french onion and one TVP) and a dish of brownies. 👍

    My partner and I are taking care of dogs while her family is out of town and one of them immediately started shitting blood as soon as the left.

    Bittersweet. My partner’s mother is terminally ill, so we’ve been trying to make it as special as possible because it’s unlikely she’ll see another one. It’s been nice, but there’s that vague undercurrent of inevitable loss.

    I was on a plane from Ho Chi Minh City to Paris the whole day. It wasn’t too bad actually. The plane was pretty empty and I had the row to myself. Now I’m sitting in the Paris airport waiting to board my flight home. It doesn’t look like I’ll have the same luck today, but it’s a shorter flight (still 8 hours).

    Pretty solid. My family took Christmas off so we’re just being together and watching movies.

    Just working. All of my family is quite a ways away from me so I’ll get a nice paycheck out of the deal. Thankfully I work from home and have a job where unless something explodes I can screw off all day, so I got to call my family and play video games all day.

    It was pretty nice. Our oldest just turned 3 so I think she really appreciated the gifts this year and is having a blast with her new toys. We just finished making gingerbread cookies. We’re also not talking to my in laws until April at the earliest so that’s a load of extra stress gone and it’s amazing.
