Nice place, Aims! Also I love Zingerman's.
Yum, Jen!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Our wings are not tired.
Lovely new home, Aims!
Yummy, Jen. I'm going to have to try that.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
COVID-19 nasopharyngeal swab PCR test results just posted: negative
Wow, that was quick. They told me "it could be a couple of days," but it was only eight hours.

Good job.

dcp - wow, that was fast, and, more importantly, yay for the negative result.
Aims, I love the yard and the sun room especially. (Why, yes, I find our apartment dark and without a yard. Why do you ask?)
I'll have to check out Zingerman's. I'm finding myself paralyzed with respect to ordering gifts right now, which is not helpful. I don't have a ton to do, but... you know, some forward momentum on that would be nice. I did buy Christmas cards today, because they were right in front of my face and 50% off.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Yay for negativity, dcp!
And, wow, Aims, that place is wonderful. The window seat! The tree with a bench all the way around it! So many good spots to curl up and read.

What is even happening?
Aims, that house is adorable. Enjoy.
Yay for testing negative in a positive way, dcp!

Thrive to spite them
Aims that house is so cute! love the sunroom/porch and the tree and the window seat.
Windy, I understand where you are coming from with a lack of alone time. M and his mom are here all the time and they can be so loud. and when M gets excited or happy or is playing Xbox HE GETS REALLY LOUD. AND THEN EVEN LOUDER and I spend a lot of time with headphones on listening to stuff in the other room or with the window a/c unit on full blast. Occasionally I have kicked them out.. well encouraged them to go to the store or take a drive or something just so I can have time alone.
