Congrats mageprincess! That's lovely that your son is so enamoured with his new baby sister. Sorry to hear life has been exhausting Seek. My work has just ramped up and will unfortunately stay really busy for at least the next 3 weeks, so I'm not looking forward to that...

Found a different remix of About Love and it's putting me in mind of my ex again. I thought I'd gotten over her by now, but I guess sometimes memories catch you when you least expect it. I sort of edged around this in the music thread because I didn't want to derail but the song really captures how I felt, back when I was falling in love with her, and the thought brings tears to my eyes even though it was good memories too. All that sense of loss of control, how being around her made me feel. Maybe the loss of control sucked too because I wasn't sure how to feel that a girl was making me feel this way but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Bleargh. I think I need a drink.

That's rough Seek. I hate it when memories catch me unawares like that. Hope it's not too painful for you. Turns out my work will still be busy, if not really busy, for the rest of the year - but hopefully not as madly busy as it was the first few weeks of November. At least I have a short break in the first week of December (Covid permitting).

Oh hey everyone! Nice to drop back in again and see a recent flurry of activity haha. I've been a bit inactive over the past year. Had lots going on, and a bit burnt out from my last project. But I've got a new contract now on a university project, which is very different from the uniformed, heirarchical organisations that I've been working in for the past few years! I'm enjoying the change, and they close early for the summer holidays so I'm looking forward to having some time to participate in the Wishing Tree event.

Hope everyone is doing well, things have been super quiet around the boards lately and I've definitely been missing all our fun discussions!
Missy is almost 8 months old already! She's cheeky and funny and keeps us on our toes. Her grandfather said the other day that she's the sharpest out of all the grandies and I definitely agree, although she won't be the youngest for much longer on my hubby's side as my BIL and SIL are expecting their second.
In non baby news, I posted my first fanfic in 8 years a couple of weeks ago and CANNOT fathom how it has been that long lol.

It feels weird to get back into fanfic after a hiatus, but so happy for you mageprincess! I've been really busy with a job search and just accepted a new job that I hope will be a less stressful and draining environment for me, and have finally been able to take some vacation and travel. I also have Covid for the first time so I have not been enjoying that!

I read r/AskHistorians a lot because I like learning about history, and this comment on the Medieval Water Myth surprised me, due to Pierce commenting before about her struggle to figure out what Beka would be drinking due to the need for safe drinking water (and thus a lot of medieval people drinking alcohol.) tldr; clean water mattered a lot to medieval people even if they lack the germ theory of disease, and she could probably have simply gotten water...

My goodness you guys, today was my daughter's second birthday! Where on earth has the time gone? Cannot believe she is two and my little dude is now a big little dude who is almost four!
Last time I posted on this thread I think madam was about 8 months old, so it's crazy to me to think she's two already.
I hope everyone is doing well ❤️

Honestly, they either adore each other or are trying to kill each other, there's no in between!
And I really thought the "my sister's touching meeeee!" Argument would start a whole lot later than it has. I'm an only child, so I have no idea what I'm doing lol.
People with siblings, can you share your experiences?
