I changed my vacuum suction and set a double cycle on my phone! Go me!
You are a domestic goddess
Despite various disasters, the bread I baked today is yummy.
I didn’t want to do the math to try to get the $100 in spending to get the $10 in points, and so we just did our purchasing as worked out (some things on list weren’t in stock, I decided the potato bag was too much to carry home with everything else),
As they were ringing me up, I realized we were just over $80. So I told them to scan through the bag of cashews another time, so we hit $101 with only a very small amount of manufactured spending and process stress.
I made a phone call I’ve been putting off and it was … fine? Actually?
Imodium is genuinely a miracle drug.
I’m so sorry you needed that miracle.
It’s blowing a hoolie here today (Scottish for a bit windy), not particularly bad but early afternoon the power went out so I lit the wood burner. Power is now back on and we’re both in the living room just reading and enjoying the extra warmth while listening to the wind. I’ve even made myself a cup of tea with the posh mint teabags. Definitely should do this more often.
Yes, you should!
Ohhhh this is Big Cozy
It’s kinda offensive how it often works out that way ![]()
I stressed about a tax thing for 1.5 years and finally it was the real deadline (including extension) and it took me less than 2 hours to get it sorted. I stressed for far more than 2 hours!!
OMG this is extreme haha
I started to copy info from a book I want to eliminate. Realized after about 25% of it that no matter how careful I was, I needed illustrations and I just couldn’t do it right. I let myself give up, tear up the cards I’d written and put off the task until I find a solution, which I think will involve going to the library, Xeroxing the appropriate info then attaching those to cards – which I’ve done before. Just don’t have a way to do that here; I don’t think? (DH may have a scanner; don’t know.)
Anyway, the victory is that I let myself admit I couldn’t do it well enough, then let it go – just it was beyond me and I quit. MUCH healthier than the hours of negative self-talk I would have done with this previously.
Season 3 of Shrinking came out today.
Watching Han Solo be emotionally vulnerable makes me happy.
We didn’t have a dinner plan and didn’t want to make the kitchen messy. We were going to order out and instead made an instant pot pasta using all pantry and freezer ingredients. Probably faster than takeout and once the food is eaten we will put the IP in the dishwasher and the kitchen didn’t get messy at all!
This little kid, maybe 4? WOULD NOT stop running in the library. It was getting kind of adversarial. Finally his older sister (age 6-7) helped bring him to the older sister in charge (like 10-11). I said he wouldn’t stop running and maybe he was too little to be in the library without a grownup, but! Then I was able to get him interested in a building toy near Big Sis’s computer so he was able to have a positive experience in the library and not just be the bad boy who was running.
The smoke detector in my kids room started chirping at 5pm instead of the middle of the night! Battery replaced and good to go without any disrupted sleep!
You should buy a lottery ticket with that luck!
