The box has arrived, Ms. Claus! And the fabric you put in for packing is absolutely gorgeous!

Hey. New board.

I know it's cold for most of you right now, but I can officially recommend a Cold Brew Tonic as a delicious morning treat on a hot day (it's going to be about 82°F here in São Paulo today)

I didn't look up a recipe or anything, just poured some cold brew concentrate I've been working through for a week over ice, then added some Schweppes. It's a little bitter, a little sweet, a little citrusy. Quite nice.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That shrub sounds delicious! Are they easy to make?

Apparently! You just let the fruit and sugar sit around for days until it's syrup, then add the vinegar. Then make a cocktail or whatever.

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

Mm, shrub. That sounds delish.

Yikes, bt! Begone infection!

Woo walking meara! Boo 9 hrs of working.

I was just going to "complain" that my cat was pinning me to the bed when she got up and walked away. I guess I have no excuse now.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I hope the IV drugs turn things around soon for your infection, BT.

The idea of shrubs just doesn't work for me. Vinegar is a sad thing that happens to a poor, neglected open bottle of wine. Eh, more for y'all.

Our wings are not tired.

So a pleasant chat with a personable person and being so happy to come into my warm little home.

That warms me as well.

Yay for 25% walking meara!

Sorry to hear that you have to be in hospital bt, but hope you and the visiting family enjoy the cool temps. Foot~ma.

Woot! for the technology ass kicking JZ.

I'm plodding along here. Working on kicking health's ass. I'm so much healthier than my siblings, but I need to work harder at keeping it that way. Officially signed up for Medicare! Just the base stuff because I don't take any meds.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Billytea, so sorry to hear about your foot!

Shrubs are a thing I love in concept, but they are always too sweet when I actually drink them.

Y'all, my youngest child is EIGHT. That's like, officially Not A Little Kid Anymore age.

Aww, happy birthday stillakiddo!

Hope you get better soon, BT. I was in the same situation not that long ago and the IV antibiotics did the job. Unfortunately, I got bit by the hospital-in-network but some doctors in hospital out-of-network thing again and took another big financial hit. Ugh.

My youngest is 16 and working as a software developer downtown. He's practically not a kid at all.
