I need another cup of coffee because I can’t escape into random news surfing this morning.
My iPhone has decided to run a half-hour long update so with “exciting new features to iPhone, including more diverse Siri voices, new privacy controls, skin tone options to better represent couples in emoji, and much more”.
So I have no buffer between myself and the five zillion demands that assault me from the moment I open my eyes until I close them, from kids to looking for a job to kissing my husband goodbye and pretending we still have some semblance of romantic marriage.
But once I am able to sit down for two consecutive moments and gulp another espresso, my brain begins spinning scenarios anyway for how I can get everything out of life before it is too late:
More money, more love, more art.

Neither is it here, but giving up is not an option. We have to move on, no matter what life throws at us, for as long as we can. Hopefully together. That increases the chances of getting somewhere, I’ve learnt.
Hope y’all are taking care of yourselves out there.
Next week, hopefully, it won’t be just coffee dreams I post …
