flyboy: very funny. I like numbers to act like normal things, occasionally.
Tabbie YAY! On Cat news!
Nellie, happy it’s not burning. Not so happy about the blotching. Lupus is a strange illness.
Moooom, think positive thoughts. We’ll have no morbid thoughts like that. Hugs and good vibes to FCD, and daughters job searching!
Happy moms day all you mothers!!
I always think of Daddy on Mothers day. I used to send him a Mothers day card. He was both Mom and Dad to all us after she died. Normally I’d put flowers out on their graves. I will, when I can get back out.
{{{Sorry Daddy}}}.
Afternoon all. Went to the Metro Diner and ordered their meatloaf as a take-out with a couple of substitutions (which their on-line menu didn’t allow). It is now consumed and was quite edible. So hunger is dealt with for the nonce.
Butters, good catch on the credit card. I check mine on-line 1-2 times a week looking for bogus charges.
Tsar, congrats on the grand-unclehood!! My 2 nephews and niece seem in no hurry to present me with a grand-something. We shall see.
Sari, sounds like Ripple doesn’t like seeing his friends fight and acts goofy to try and distract them.
FCM, sounds like you earned the rest of the day off. Hopefully everything goes according to plan for FCD.
Voted in the Dem presidential primary and also the local elections. Oregon is one of only five states that has its shit together when it comes to voting. It’s all mail-in and there is never a question as to fraud.
Happy Mother’s day 'Murrican mothers! Tsar, congrats on the great-nibling!
This side of the pond Mother’s day was back in March, so the plants, axolotls or bees didn’t do anything nice for me today. Neither did I, getting a definite case of the bleh. I mooched, watched stuff, repotted some plants, baked another little loaf of sourdough, and considered applying for an extra part-time job, because my course is also nearly done; two online exams, designing a poster for the Big Project, and then doing, basically, a Q and A session on that, probably via zoom, then… well… Who knows. I’m considering a few options longer term, but with the current chaos it’s even more complicated. C’est la vie.
It was pretty warm but very windy here today, but the temperature’s supposed to plummet overnight.
Last night I was exhausted and joint-achy but am feeling better than I expected today. Whew. My son and DIL called, and I opened the gift they sent. (They claim they “forgot” about my no-gift rule.) Gorgeous, gorgeous artisanal chocolates. Too pretty to eat! We had a nice, very long conversation.
I miss my mom so much on Mother’s Day. I’m trying to focus on how lucky I am to have had such a wonderful mother.
doggo, I love the idea of an Egyptian Rat Screw cocktail…as long as it doesn’t contain any rats…or screws.
flytrap, my then-husband said I snored, but it must have been intermittent because it didn’t happen at the sleep clinic. So it wasn’t really a matter of it ending.
Moooom, I don’t know how to avoid worrying before surgery besides reminding yourself that the odds of survival are very high. You have a lot of people here pulling for you and FCD. Please keep us posted.
Beck, what a wonderful daddy you must have had!
Butters, sorry you got hacked. It happened to me twice one summer. The second time, the perp used her own address for delivery (from the Apple store), so Discover nabbed shortly after I made the report.
Howdy Y’all! We deheathenated digitally, had a really good N.O.L. if’n I do say so myself, and accomplished nappage. All in all a good Sunday. Oh and the biiiiiiiiiiiiiig trash can has been hauled all the way down to the road for pickup tomorrow.
Read all, retained little. Sis just called and they’re all doing well. Dad’s doing OK, but misses being able to hop on his scooter to run down to the coffee shop or bar to socialize.
Apparently someone stole my cousin’s profile pic on FB, then opened an account using her pic and her name. There was a post in an old thread of mine saying “she” had accidentally deleted me and asking for a friend request. I thought it was a little strange, but she’s older than I am and I thought maybe she might have had a problem, so I sent the request. Then I went to her old page, and it was just fine.
The fake then sent me a message of “How are you doing?” which was definitely weird because my cousin never messaged me. When I asked what happened, “She” said she’d gotten a trojan virus on FB. OK… I messaged my sister and she hadn’t gotten a bogus friend request, and I immediately blocked the bogus account and messaged my cousin. Turns out her account was fine, and she went ahead and changed her password. And I reported the faker.
Not sure why someone would do that, but I’m about to run a Malware scan. Just in case. But I didn’t click on any links, so I should be OK, right??This is the second weirdo bogus friending I’ve had on FB, apart from my normal weird friends, of course.
And it’s about time to head back to bed. I’s tahred…
Did laundry, napped, and walked Gordie. Making poke chops with sweet **N.O.T.**s, with broccoli with cheese. Alex Catt has decided to napp on the computer deskm and occasionally on the keb0FG94856THKLSJHNLIJNHDFOIUGNBD.
Got up too early. Drinking coffee now.
I’ll shortly suit myself up and try to brave the stores. I only go out to go shopping, and only rarely. Occasionally for walks.
