And yet, she did get you, right? So what's the big? And why so important to get you right now?
Just back from Big Lots where I bought lots of plastic boxes to store toys.
Science question - when we bring Grace home, she comes with tanks of pure oxygen. For a full day, it's 4-5 tanks. Driving with them is kinda scary. I'm sure we are supposed to have a hazmat sticker, but we don't.
And, if we are rear-ended, they will be torpedos. So do we store them side to side or front to back?
Also, Grace has an attachment that requires a use of 4 liters of oxygen. It lets 72% of the 02 escape so she gets her 28% 02. Isn't it possible to use less flow (like maybe 1/2 liter) without the attachment. Granted, we wouldn't guarantee that she's getting 28%, but we'd need fewer tanks. How would we mathematically figure it out?
(Noah came home without the attachment and he needed oxygen and he was on 1/4 liter per hour flow.... it was much easier that way).
YAY plastic boxes. Now that we are bug free, I am slowly getting stuff out of plastic. mac has like 4 new plastic boxes to wrangle his toys.
Fun for me, I just treated my jewelry which had been taped up in a plastic bin. I am going to try to start the year off with coordinating jewelry at least once a week.
Coordinating jewelry is FANCY!
Salvation Army, those gay-haters, are coming to pick up some furniture from us. I feel simultaneously bad about it because they hate us, but they are the only non profit that will send a truck to get it.
Hec, you are clearly doing the Ari Gold thing and mixing affection with hostility.
So, I just got a call from Arbitron doing a survey about my TV and radio consumption. I was all excited, until they asked if I know anyone who works for an advertising agency. And I do! But I don't know which agency or what her title is. But still, I was knocked out of the running. Oh well.
Happy Birthdays to Theo, Jesse, and Rayne!
Everybody sounds so energetic and effective this AM. Me, NSM. Slounging is high on my priority list today. I may poke at a box or two, of course that way lies madness, because one box leads to another box leads to another box, and before you know it they're all open and nowhere to put the contents!
JZ, the thing you made is awesome. One thing I treasure that came back to me with StE's things is the yarn octopus I made for his third Christmas--he'd just turned two. There was a picture of an octopus in one of his books, and he was at the "How does the horsie go? How does the doggie go?" stage, and wanted to know "How does the occiepuss go?" We made an octopus-swimming across hand motion and a "whhsh, whhsh, whhsh" sound and he added it to his repertoire. Obviously he needed an octopus toy. It and his Indiana Jones action figure went with him wherever he moved, and StY has Indie now, and I have Ollie back.
Also, if that's the gift portrait behind the darling darkling princess' shoulder, it looks awesome.
Safe journeys, all you travelers today.
Jesse, LIE.
Today is supposed to be shopping, but my sister is crashed out. ER took as much or more out of her this morning as it did me.
