This miserable stretch of rain needs to stop! It’s been raining nonstop for the last 5 days and it’s getting to everyone now. I already have two big branches which broke from trees and in my property.

Slightly predictable, but *Drops of God* was an excellent watch on Apple TV. Also loved that its a mini series and wraps everything up just about as good as it can. Recommended!
Last night was a little tough. Grief comes in waves, and it hit us both harder last night as we were scrolling through pictures of years past. Still hard to process that it only feels like a few months ago they announced their pregnancy at get together at our place, or me claiming to be her favorite uncle just coz one time she decided I needed to be her official carrier, or how my doggo was really piqued by her tiny size and wouldn’t leave her alone. Hopefully as this weeks drags on becomes easier on both of us, especially A who’s taken it way harder.
Today is worse than yesterday. All of us are just saying the same things over and over on WhatsApp because nobody wants to talk but we need to share.
Today has been one of the hardest days we have collectively had as friends. One of our closest buddies lost his toddler after a long battle with illness over a year. We are just so heartbroken right now it’s been hard to process. I cannot imagine what they are feeling long tonight 🙁
I got the iPhone 15 pro eventually (in spite of Apple promising it was cancelled). I am tempted to keep it now, but I am worried that with USB-C I will now become the only person with this charger type, so now I will need to worry about charger type in each room. We have chargers in every room at this pt, and thought of adding a USB-C to the mix makes me go meh. So thats the big reason I dont know if I want to upgrade anymore. Who knows now that I have it in my hands, I still might!
For the first time in many many years we are most likely going to miss out on going to India in December this year. We go to India every other year in December to meet and be with family, but this year due to insane Air ticket prices, going to India has become a challenge. We hope to make it in summer now next year but sucks coz I love being in India in December! Also, two years is already too long to be not going back to India….
I am writing a doc about expanding scope & responsibilities of me and another senior person on team. My first draft was very polite, wish washy trying to keep everyone happy but also asking for more ownership type of doc. In my current version I have dropped all pretense and just gone straight out to demanding more. The result is the doc went from 6 pages to 2 pages, is crisp and super direct and just lays it out as it is. I love it, and if it pisses of people, well, thats the goal!
The best part about season 3 of only murders in the building is how few episodes Meryl Streep is in. My big fear going in was she would make this show about herself in every frame so I am glad it very much is not so. Quite rambling at times this season, and yet they did manage this start tying things around. Looking forward to the finale.
We started watching *Drops of God* based on [@parag](https://micro.blog/parag)’s post and we are loving it. Still on episode 3 but this came out of nowhere. Who knew it was on Apple TV!
