Just Good Things: January 23, 2026

DC is in the swath of the US that is expecting a major snow storm. I decided to hit the grocery store this morning because I figured our usual Saturday morning run would be pure chaos. Whelp, the store was still chaos, but at least I was able to get everything on my list (and I arrived before the store ran out of carts).

Here's what else was good this week:

• Nabbed a fully loaded bag of goodies from the local bakery for only $7 using Too Good to Go
• Kiddo is starting to read to us at bedtime
• New over the head headphones giving my ears a break
• Built my LEGO orchids to use as a centerpiece
• When kiddo saw her dad's papercut she said, "Dad, you have to be careful!"
• Did way more scanning than planned
• Cute TV romances
• Finally buying an electric kettle for the office
• Sneaking in a shower while dinner simmered
• Kiddo raving about the pasta and sauce I made
