Sometimes we’re grumpy even when we’re getting what we want.

(This is not just about the cat.)

I love my new house, the housewarming is going to be lovely, we are so inexpressibly blessed BUT ALSO my back hurts, I can’t sleep because my arms go numb when I lay down, we’re hemorrhaging money (to a normal new-house degree, but still), I’ve started a brand-new teeth-grinding habit and I just want to take a nap without dreaming about the to-do-list.

Trust me, I want to punch my privileged face, too, don’t worry.
