Not called out my entitled bitch sister who is ranting on Facebook in a beyond entitled manner again today. Gah. Scrolling on by is harder and harder. In case you are wondering, she is the hardest hit person on the planet by this pandemic. And it’s all minor inconveniences but they are impacting HER. Gah.

It was windy today and windy makes my head head.
But I did go out to the edge of fire pit area and sing midnight, in the moonlight , because there was no sound from the pavement.

I’ve been craving brownies for days, so I’ve been building up my stash of sourdough starter so I will have enough to make a pan. DH can’t have baking powder, so I have to use sourdough starter and baking soda for leavening. I have a great recipe that is so good, I’d use it even if he didn’t have kidney problems.
Today I made tacos for the first time on over a month.I usually make them once a week, but DH smarted off last time about me cooking the same old same old, so I stopped making tacos...and anything else he liked that I didn’t care for. When he complained about me not cooking one of his faves, I just told him that was a same old same old and I had moved on to fresher dishes...yeah, he got the hint and I got a big apology. Repeatedly. Maybe often enough it will stick in his head that you don’t piss off the person who is feeding you.
Saturday we all went to Costco together. We had not all left the house together since this started. DH and our grand dog waited in the van while Mom, DD and I all donned masks. We didn’t dally, with each hitting a different section and then meeting up to pay. We pretty much bathed in hand sanitizer before getting in the van. I think if Mom hadn’t gotten out, she was going to go stir crazy.
I have to laugh about Peas doing laundry. My mom LOVES to do laundry. Sometimes I’m not completely undressed before she’s knocking on the door asking if she can have my dirty clothes to wash. Other grand kids bring their grandmothers flowers - mine brings hers her dirty laundry every Friday. Mom is thrilled. LOL

I wore real clothes and put on makeup. I had to run a couple quick errands and just felt like wearing real clothes. I just finished finals for grad school yesterday and I feel like I've done nothing but study the past couple months. Getting ready and dressed felt good!

This is a thoroughly entertaining thread.
Not sure what that says about the state of my life right now.

(((Hugs))) BTDT. Although it also involved hospitalization to rule out something serious. We have a shitload of Miralax in our house now. Literally. Thanks! I was pretty stunned when he said constipation. I thought for sure it was a kidney stone, since that’s basically how I act when I have them. I am sorry that you have to deal with this with your kiddos too. I don’t know about this parenting business! 🤣. I get a handle on one thing and then something else weird pops up! We have a lot of canned pears, and that seemed to clean him out today. The dr recommended a glycerine suppository (😵), but I didn’t want to try that just yet. Can 7 year olds take Miralax? Miralax works great for younger kids. My youngest is now 10, but we started using it when she was around 2 for chronic constipation issues. We started with half doses for maintenance after we go her cleaned out. She’ll still ask for a dose if it starts to be a problem.

I haven’t been in Costco or Sam's for quite a while now. But I’m old enough (63) to shop during the senior hours at HyVee. That was a good thing -and also rather depressing - to realize.

I’m working on a money lei for my friend’s son who is graduating. Even if he only has a virtual ceremony, I promised to make it when I gifted her other son one last year.

I went on Youtube and learned how to floss. I am so late to the game, but I used to practice dance moves from youtube...long time ago. I think we need video proof that you learned it ;D

Do you happen to have a suggestion on where to look to learn how to make one? YouTube has quite a few. I am making a kukui nut money lei as I purchased the lei last year. If you don’t have access to that, the disc style (use can use colored paper matching school colors in the place of money as well) and flat chain are really popular here too: Chain: youtu.be/Zsubi6vbe30Disc: youtu.be/DrxUIXBOjNQFor the kukui nut leis, there are different leaf folds you can use. This video shows best way I found to secure the leaves: youtu.be/JU_7gxUqEaQ

I've got a couple of people in my life getting graduate degrees. What a fun gift for them. Will you post yours when you finish? Please?

Cleaned the refrigerator! It's been so full and it got so messy! And I couldn't find food. I was trying to go to the grocery store every 2 weeks (used to going every other day). We only have one refrigerator, so I had to wait until the day before shopping when it was pretty empty. Back to going to the store once a week insead of every 2.

I FOUND LYSOL DISINFECTANT SPRAY AT COSTCO!!!! The 4-pack. Sorry for shouting there, but wow, haven't seen any of that since this all began. (also, I know that wasn't exactly the point of this thread...but finding Lysol spray IS something that I haven't done in a long time! )

I got questioned about my age at Walmart senior hour last week! She was smiling when she said it and I offered to pull my ID. She waved me in.
