the good, the bad, and the ugly this week

• our Pride display at the library is pretty f'in awesome! it features big rainbow letters with feathers stuck to them (we were going to use balloons but they kept popping; the feathers worked out way better in the end) and a backdrop of multicoloured circles that's super eye-catching--I've seen a lot of people stopping to take photos of it or selfies in front of it 😃
• think I'm going to sign up for multifandomdrabble
• am super annoyed with both my children for housekeeping-related reasons. the practice of doing the bare minimum requested and relying on their sibling/parents to pick up the slack is really obvious and continues no matter how many times we call them out on it 😡
• still can't bring myself to post any of my recent writing
• volunteering at an outdoor concert on Saturday... and of course the forecast is calling for an 80% chance of thunderstorms ⛈

Parenting is a thankless job! Perhaps some things can't be really internalized until they're on their own and nobody else is there for them to fall back on? Idk, I was the only one in my house ever cleaning growing up.

I mean - AMAZING - but at a concert is a little messy :P

Yeah, I love storms, but not when I'm trying to work outdoors! OTOH, the forecast seems to be indicating the heaviest rain will fall tonight, so that's preferable.
