Made a joke to H that after all the adulting we both have already done this week (and we’ve both got even more planned) we needed to eat sugar cereal for dinner to counteract it.

He’s on is way to the grocery store to buy some and pick up a pizza…because responsible adults need leftovers to pack lunch tomorrow. Victories, victories everywhere.

I hope he is getting ice cream too - adulting trifecta

Lucky charms ON ice cream :exploding_head: we’ll see what he comes home with.

He had a major win at work today that is also somewhat stressful so I anticipate grocery retail therapy

I just threw a large (for me) amount of money at my mortgage and paid about 4 years more of principal off! In 6 years/4 months I have paid off 27 years/2 months and saved 74% of what I should have paid in interest if I took 30 years to pay. I could have paid it off completely, but my savings would have been lower than I wanted and now the monthly interest is so low I don’t really care if I take another 3 years to finish. I don’t make a lot, so my dream was to be paid off in 10 years, and now it will be done in no more than 9! I know some people think other investments are a better place to put extra money, but I was 43 when I took the loan and refuse to be paying it off at 70 something. I have no other debt, and I want it paid, so I am very close now. :grin:

Way to go! I’m on a mortgage payoff challenge for this year for myself. Having a paid off home is a good sense of security.

Foster kitty (foster-to-adopt kitty, if he and my current cat can get along) has arrived and is installed in the spare room. No good pictures yet since he’s not very interested in coming out from under the bed, but hopefully in a week or two :smiley_cat:.

My kid is installing the dishwasher so I don’t have to hurt my foot climbing around on the floor.


He is learning a lot.

Finally, a decade in, our isp has become convinced our bandwidth really does suck. They installed an amplifier for us, and we’re suddenly o to the blinding speed of 6.5 mbps download. (DSL, of course; it’s all we can get).

A facebook group for my disorder had helpful suggestions for setting and wrapping my broken toe. It was a complicated problem because I’m allergic to adhesives. Now the toe is all swaddled and cozy.

This morning the wiggler found a Cheerio and some other unidentified debris in a spot that is hard to vacuum. I saw him bending down to get them–and before he could put them in his mouth, I asked him to put them in the trash, and he did!

(Then he started poking the trash, of course.)
