I have the same problem but it is in one of my favorite shirts. Which I have worn often while vending outdoor art shows in the middle of summer. Multiple washes and vinegar soaks and the left pit of the shirt still smells like a goat died in it.
Maybe Nature’s Miracle would work? I don’t want to toss it, I love that shirt, but man, that smell is foul!
Girl Kitty unrolled an entire, full, roll of toilet paper overnight sometime. That’s not terribly unusual, though usually she doesn’t do the whole roll.
Also I think Home Depot/Lowes would be willing to do a cut with their mega saw on a large item you bring in. If a door or other thing you find would be too wide that would be a way to make it smaller. They also have employees that you can ask to help get stuff in and out of your car onto those giant carts they have. This does still require leaving the house but might be easier than DIYing this step at home.
My child has some behaviors that are a lot like her father’s. When they surface, it is unpleasant enough to be around no matter what the cause, but when it is my own child, a nature/nurture debate arises in my brain and I either blame myself for raising her to have these behaviors or attribute them to inherited traits from her father, which sucks because he is an angry, miserable person whose life is not what I want my child’s life to be like.
Update: something viral, but not flu. Now the complaint is tiny. He’s still a lot sick though because he’s cooperating and drinking tea with licorice root in and also taking Tylenol when I tell him to. This is pretty well the opposite of the natural order of things around here.
My friend bought me a Halloween tea sampler. It is absolutely gorgeous and comes in tarot-card-themed packaging.
I took it to work, opened it intending to have a cup… and it is all loose tea. I do not have a tea ball at work. Fairly certain I have one at home which IS NOT HELPING ME RIGHT AT THIS MOMENT DAMMIT
Kick it ghetto coffee style: paper towel pour over (does not work with those nasty brown towels that dissolve. You need a bounty type idea for this to work)
I can’t donate to charities yet with my new Amtrak credit card. I could buy an Amtrak ticket with it, but it appears I can’t use the card info for anything else until I get and activate the physical card. I need to hit a minimum spend to get the bonus, so I want to use donations to get part of the way there. It’s just a matter of waiting, but I’m impatient! I’ve been planning on donating for a while, and I kept forgetting to time it with a bonus.
Greyman is likely to miss his connecting flight and get home at midnight rather than 8. I was thinking of buying him a ticket for a connecting flight to nearby city, but that would only get him home at 11 rather than midnight.
So I guess I’m just going to cross my fingers and hope for a delay on flight #2.
When Howie’s mom stayed with us last time, she slept directly on the decorative pillow shams instead of on the regular sleeping pillows. This wouldn’t be a big deal except she uses some kind of greasy-as-shit something on her face or hair and there are stubborn oil stains on the shams now. (She stayed a while ago but I finally dedicated serious time this afternoon trying to get the stains out, which is why I’m complaining now.)
Howie’s mom also uses something that bleaches the shit out of my towels, so I may just need to have a set of bedding and towels specifically for her.
Ugh. My mom uses some kind of perfumey facial cream on her face and neck (I thought it was actual perfume!) and it went through the sheet and into the down pillow. Maybe I should get thick pillow covers just for her.
