Adulting is hard.

I need to get someone in on Friday and hope he finds out that the toilet only needs a new wax ring put on it or something. There's an awful smell, but there's not a continuous flow of water, so I pray it's not a leak somewhere.

I got all that I wanted listed online, washed dishes, cleaned cat litter and have mopped half the kitchen floor, but I stopped to have some dinner.

Now I really need to make banana bread since the overripe previously frozen bananas are thawed and on the counter.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

But sheesh. Adulting is hard.

Right?

Go all y'all with your many and varied accomplishments!

And I meant to say earlier, that's a relief, Sue.

I'll adult more tomorrow and make my cats' vet appt. In the meantime, I'm being sat on by a Loki and watching battlebots. Loki's pretty.

I recycled the last of my old electronics at Best Buy, mostly figured out what furniture I want to order, cleaned litter boxes, laundered clothes, made a big pot of soup to use up things in the pantry, and now I'm washing all the blankets and sheets that have been crammed in a closet for years.

mac has stinkeyed me one too many times when I am trying to help. As of now he does all his own laundry.

Not even a real fight, just tired of the 'tude and he is plenty old. He'll either start listening and asking for help or he'll be going to highschool with smelly pits in his shirts and stains on everything.

I have been patient with the water situation. Really. But what does this tweet mean, county?

Latest update: the samples for water testing will be back in the am. Boil water advisory o/o caution. Samples from Fri & Sat were negative.

Is o/o a common shortcut? Also, they've been saying any minute now all afternoon. Why not just say "tomorrow"?

Start keeping a bin outside for stank you don't want in the house. There might be a learning curve, just sayin'. Bonus points if you use a burn barrel:)

he knows basic washing, has been doing one load a week for a few years, but he needs to spray/extra treat the pits of his shirts, especially anything he wear playing basketball, otherwise that stink does not come out in a regular wash. girls will not find it attractive.
