'Never Leave Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Otter Lake sounds like a magical place (and not in a Tahiti kind of way).
Good one.
I picked up some non-caustic sounding drain opener stuff that promises an empty tub in an hour. We shall see. If it works I may start buying it by the case (it's also a preventative for slow drains which has been a chronic problem since, well, the home inspection before we bought to be honest)
Tried smoking two tiny hits of the Indica sleep-making pot last night and IT PUT ME TO MOTHER-EFFING SLEEP. This newfangled weed is so dang strong! I don't want to use it every night, but it is great to have it in reserve. Today we went to head shop and bought a cheapie bong. Head shops are pretty much the same as they were the last time I was in one, 20 years ago.
Niiiice.
I still haven't done anything that needs doing but I did walk to the neighborhood music shop to get a reed for my recently acquired oboe and hit the used book store next door.
Need to do:
vacuum living rooms - 1 done by me
mop kitchen
clean my bathroom
do a load of laundry
vacuum mac's room
measure some clothes
go through some papers - clear off at least one side table - by me
clean off dresser
wash car
vacuum car
Lemon meringue pies [link]
Oboe reeds and used books- that is some high quality errand running.
Tub is still not drained but I think the water level has receded.
Given you still have some power but not to major appliances, my money is on Aurelia's guess about the leg (I think BGE referred to it as being out of phase when it happened to my neighbor. )You might put a call into your power co. It won't cost you anything and often they'll give a diagnosis, though not a fix, for anything power related. Electricity can be dangerous, I guess....
Helped (meaning brought a spray can trigger and talked to people) decorate a toilet on wheels this afternoon.
So much grinding to do tomorrow.
Well that was handy. The blood-curling shrieks that seem to be the sole form of communication my new neighbor's toddler uses woke me up from a nap at just the right time to go get takeout for dinner.
Pretty little meringues!
Mmmmm, lemon meringue pie.
The oboe works! I was afraid the pads would need to be replaced, but it seems to be in good shape. Now I need to find my book of musical instrument fingerings so that I can do more than just make noise and freak the cats out. I haven't exposed them to the accordion yet. That should be fun.
I think I'll head out again to drop some books at the little free library nearby. I should make a habit of buying used paperbacks to drop there.
