That is a sweet looking wheelchair!
Happy Easter to those who celebrate. Myself, I will likely be working all day, hopefully taking a break for some food with my neighborfam (DJ's aunt and uncle). Grind grind blah. Anxiety is high today, here's hoping I can keep it at bay enough to remain functional. I have an estimate that is way behind to get out, those infernal shutters to scrape, and my quarterly taxes to pay. And I need to do laundry and make some food. Hahahhhaha ::sobs::
Ugh. I'm trying to get some work done, but I can't concentrate on anything other than the pain in my thumb. "Debilitating thumb pain" really shouldn't be a thing.
You would think, before experiencing it, that pain, even great pain, in a small part of your body would average out to small pain overall. But it doesn't. It's big-ass pain.
We're home. We had a good weekend. Although, ltc was terrified of going to sleep in her pack and play in a room that was not her own. So were never able to go to a movie.
You will! She won't always be afraid.
Glad you had a good weekend.
Oh, I know I just meant we weren't able to go all weekend. I really wanted to see Get Out. Maybe I'll see if my inlaws are available to babysit here this weekend.

Short, positive little article.
Mom's going through a big box of pictures without her glasses and she keeps tossing stuff to throw away "I have no idea who those kids are".. I look-- "Mom that's me and bro.." "oh I guess we'll keep that."
She also has several pictures of her in a polka dot dress (she says it's blue) that has a full skirt with a crinoline under it (I assume). I keep lookign at it and thinking how much Steph and JZ would like it
While visiting the Oakland office, I'm hanging out in a hard wall office. But these walls are thin and the person in the office next to this one has been on personal calls ALL DAY. I know about her struggles filling certain prescriptions and now I know all about how so and so said she took too much macaroni and cheese when she only took the scrapings. O. M. G. SHUT UP!!!!
Once again, this is why I work from home. If you MUST air this stuff during the day, do it by text, online, or GO OUTSIDE.
So, I found out why Bubble and Squeak is called that. When I got home at 10:30 from work (why am I working law firm hours again?), I didn't really feel like cooking. I had some leftover corned beef hash, but it needed a little bulking up. I had some frozen brussel sprouts, so I defrosted them, chopped them up with some potato and threw it into a skillet (with some bacon fat). I put a lid on it and went to change my clothes. When I wandered back into the kitchen, I was startled to see hear the pan making a weird noise. Kind of popping and, well, squeaking. And the light bulb went on!
It was good, too. I might try making it on purpose next time.
