Anybody know anything about a relief package to buy one lunch or dinner passing? I've got a deposit from the IRS for $15.42. I mean, free money, I guess. But I am bewildered.
Nice acronym, Mom!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Interesting. I'll have to keep an eye on my bank account.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Yay, askye!
And also, yay school confirmation! I'm glad Matilda has a friend who's glad to have Matilda as a schoolmate. It's always easier with a buddy.
I was scrolling up the list of thread names, and how is Heaven's Just a Funky Moose Natter from 2008? We need to do redux thread names--greatest hits!

I feel all macho today, I helped my super move the oven this afternoon and even lifted it by myself while he adjusted supports beneath it. (I may be able to cook pizzas and other baked good again. Or possibly burn the building down...)
I also set up the Biden sign my mom bought in her front yard. Friends of hers have had their political signs tampered with, so I positioned this one so that anyone swerving into the yard to mow it down will get to enjoy a collision with either the mailbox (on a 4x4 metal post sunk in concrete) or the raised concrete storm drain. I'll be happy to pay for another sign if some angry Trumper totals their car trying to destroy it.

Ha! Excellent.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I don't HOPE that happens, but if it does happen, I'll laugh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good one!
I walked by some friends' little free library this morning, and instead there was a plastic box with a sign that said the library had been seriously vandalized and needed to be replaced! Who TF does that??

Elsewehere in Greater Camberville, somebody had the Madonna stolen out of their front yard.
I'm suspicious that Pandemic Distress Disorder has people acting out in weird ways.

Thrive to spite them
So it's a relief to have the car stuff behind me but my car insurance went up again so it's now $200/month.
I know I need to figure out if there is anything I can do to get it down like a defensive driving class but I am not up to figuring that out right now. I'll wait until next month. Just only so much I can deal with at one one time. Or maybe next week.
I on vacation this week and that is yay. Double yay is M's mom is house sitting so we have the place to ourselves until Sat
It's been so nice not having the extra drama and yelling.
