~~This year~~ *Last year I started to need reading glasses for the first time. Was noticing tiny print was hard to read. Screens and books were still ok. But has been progressing and now I find myself holding books too far away, and I need brighter light to read, ugh guess I need to actually wear the glasses. Might be time to recheck the prescription too. Sigh. Aging is rubbish. I would like my 21 year old body back please, but keep my current brain.
*2025 still not seeped into brain yet.

Went for a walk and it feels cool outside. Good, because means house will take longer to heat up tomorrow.

I don't have much time for people who are always late, its rude.

Sounds like you guys should hang out, out of your house, where they can't make a mess of your space.

being late is such a big no no

but I do believe the annoyance of the tardiness made you a little less tolerant than you would normally be

paper towels, not a problem, they are meant to be used, just grab more, if you didn't have enough then next time buy more

move the stuff on the table aside or put on bench

late in the evening, then say something

tomorrow's pizza, just say no, if she says her own place is messy then tell her to clean it up
