We put on cartoons & I just colored all weekend (and practiced learning Amharic). Here’s one product…coloring has made me let go of perfection bc my hands jerk & it’s gon be what it’s gon be! #QuietJoy #AdultColoringBooks
This goes both ways too!! We are so childish together! (My husband’s coworkers prefer him when I’m around bc he’s silly! That’s the true him—he, WE, can’t help it!)
My husband knows exactly where to place his arm & I’ll fall right asleep! And I have insomnia & sleep issues!
If you see this, post a picture of you in glasses 👓
I mean…the voters have the information… Why detach? All should be held accountable for their character
We had braised lamb shanks, butternut squash mash, and cabbage. Tonight’s dinner was top tier! #glutenfree
Because I can’t always control my hands the way I want to (buh-bye being a surgeon!), I’ve started coloring. No one or nothing is harmed if my hands jerk… These are the ones I’ve finished since coming back from our honeymoon on Sunday.
Ethiopians are EXTREMELY proud of never being colonized and only having a brief occupation of Italians. They are the ONLY African country that has never been colonized by ANY Europeans. If I hadn’t married an Ethiopian, I wouldn’t know… www.bbc.com/news/world-a...
My husband is lucky that I get hungry & decide to make sopes whenever… Some filled with Black refried beans… It’s gluten free AND vegan!
I can’t even remember the title! 2nd grade It was The Decapitated Chicken and other stories 😳 It was a series of gruesome poems & prose… I read it in Spanish, and I have been reluctant to ever revisit in English—SCARRED! (I could always check out whatever book I wanted)
Fredericksburg, TX My husband tapped out on the 3rd pour of a 5 pour wine tasting… Nigga can’t hang!
It was @asimegn.blacksky.app getting his new Ethiopian comic books in the mail! He looks like a kid!
Playing in front of 11K people (This pic is at my high school)
Today is my dad’s 75th bday. I still have the card that I‘d give him every year… The next day, he’d give it back. (That last pic was taken by my 3 yo nephew & it’s the last one taken of him)
Today would be my parents’ 43rd anniversary… So, I’m spending the day with my mom. My dad wanted to retire in Austin, so this is where he took his first and last breath. My mom won’t leave bc she for the dbl decker plot… SXSW traffic is ruining my day (it’s always around his bday)
My problem is I think my face stays oval shaped… But in reality, when I smile, it becomes diamond shaped… I never knew my cheeks took up my whole face! These aren’t even full smiles!
Yesterday, my husband learned what the term “being put through the mattress“ means… My headscarf came off
My mom is afraid of dogs & I had an 85lb rottie/german shepherd mix! She kept trying to steal my dog, every chance she got…when I was very sick and living away from family “You know Satchmo can come stay with us...” 🗣️MOM, you cannot have my dog!
My husband wanted a keyboard when he got his green card, so i ordered him one For 30 yrs, this man has said that he’s tone deaf (I gave him a music quiz & he scored v well) Within a day, he’s reading sheet music AND playing with both hands!
