I love this so much! I’m only 38, but I feel tired too. The things that used to bring me joy feel stale - podcasts on passion topics, gameschooling and reading aloud, watching my staple shows. I’m a hardcore rewatcher but I feel like I’ve rewatched my favorites to death so they feel like gum that’s been chewed for two days straight. It’s time for new things, but I’m not quite sure where to start finding new things that bring me joy. Anyways, it’s nice to know I’m not alone!

Hi June! Yes! I feel like I've run out of podcasts somehow - nothing really sticks right now.

I like having a planet just made me choke on my water :)

I had the Ella song in my head while reading and then you linked it and I felt like I won a Where The Beauty Is badge!

Oh! I want to make one of those now!!

And this reminds me of our 'Adult Brownies' conversation. Not the P*T kind, the kind where we have sashes and get merit badges for doing things like calling the plumber, and cleaning the microwave.

I too daydream about being a preschool teacher. Or a nanny. I’ve always had my eyes on the $$$ jobs. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yes. I think my financial advisor has said all his fanciest clients spend most of their time hanging with tiny, sticky people. 😁
