Currently, what are you... ... Reading? Where the Crawdads Sing and Dirk Gently. I think I read a fair bit. Mostly fiction, but of all types and genres. Some poetry too, sometimes. ... Watching? Nothing per se. I just finished CODA and now am exploring if there's anything on Prime I want to watch before I cancel my subscription. I was keeping it because I wanted to watch The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel which is awesome. Also currently watching Foundation with hubby. ... Listening to? I've been trying to find new punk bands I like. My favourite new one is Bad Cap / Bad Cop. In my regular rotation though, I listen to Green Day, Jimmy Eat World, Sum 41, Sincere Engineer. ... Playing? I hardly play video games nowadays. Sometimes I'll get nostalgic and fire up The Sims, WoW, Civilisation... ... Working on (job-wise and/or leisure-wise)? This is tricky. My brain never stops, so I've got a few things going at all times. If it's during the school year, my brain is busy with that, mostly. Like right now it's already working on planning a class I might teach next year. (keywords: "might" and "next fall") If not, I craft a lot (I guess?) so I usually have a knitting project cast on, and I have a quilt underway (I chewed off way more than I could there, but I'll get through it eventually.) ... Looking forward to? Our family vacation this summer. We rented a cottage on the beach in New Brunswick (It's an old church!) and I'm really excited, not only to get away with the kids, but also to go with my mom. I am my mom's caregiver since my dad passed away at the end of August. She has lung cancer. ... Worried/concerned/annoyed about? All the things. I have anxiety, so the list is insane. More predominantly... my eldest daughter's anxiety, my youngest daughter's (probably) ADHD issues, my mom's health, anyone testing me. Like people, get out of my face.
What were your last three LJ entries about and when did you post them?ok, I don't post often enough, I'll admit, but they were in the last few weeks, I think. I remember talking about health (mental and physical,) work, aaaand, hm, yeah that's what I mainly talk about I guess? I'm mostly daily life. It helps if you care about hearing about teaching!
Anything else? I'm a college ESL teacher, I don't journal as often as I'd like, try to come regularly enough that I don't miss much, try to comment, and I just love getting to know people from everywhere.
