i'm thankful that last night, i made us steaks (which i coated thickly with mayo, a choice that sounded disgusting to me but really worked well: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/28/dining/mayo-meat-marinade.html), roasted red potatoes (using the potatoes that had been sitting in the box over the toaster oven for weeks but were still perfectly fine), and broccoli (with my new favorite ingredient to add to anything and everything since d made that alison roman ragu, anchovies, https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/2863-broccoli-with-anchovies-and-garlic).

i'm thankful that this weekend i tried spending a lot less time dicking around on the internet (mostly by leaving my real phone in our bedroom and using my old phone, which i had removed all social networking apps from) and i think that helped my mental state and feeling of rest and enjoyment. i'm thankful that last week ended in a better place than it started and i'm thankful to hope that this week is good too. i'm thankful to feel more hopeful about my future than i have recently. 

i'm thankful to have played terraria with d for a bit yesterday evening. i'm thankful to have gotten a can of shaving cream at the grocery store
