Fingers crossed for all pancreatitis or covid sufferers. I have a mammogram today, but normally that’s just more tedious than anything else.

Work is v busy.

Also re GBBO—the new season starts there tonight I think, and it starts streaming weekly on Netflix this Friday!!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oh Great British Bake Off is streaming on Roku Channel (therokuchannel.roku.com) it's the first 7 seasons-with Mary Berry and Sue and Mel!

Oooh, I've never seen the first couple seasons! And our upstairs TV is now fixed.

They found more rot than expected on one side of the garage so they will have to tear more out. You let water leak for several years and that's what you get, apparently.

At this point it feels like 90% of all home maintenance is dealing with water that got wher

Or bats! I just had to have the cabin all resealed to oust a family of bats who took up residence this spring. (They’re protected so there’s an eviction moratorium until September.)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Ugh. Mr. S woke up with a sore throat. No fever, and the COVID test was negative, so he went to school. Was still feeling poorly and went home early. Got him into the pediatrician's office where they determined it was a cold. Gave him a strep test, and that was negative. Unfortunately while we were waiting for the results, he had a meltdown. He had his tablet, but kept throwing it on the floor, to the point that it cracked in half. When I wouldn't give it back to him he started spitting at me and generally being aggressive. A nurse helped get him out to the car, but he wouldn't calm down. I ended up calling Gary and he and a different nurse got him calmed down by offering small bouncy balls.

And to top it all off, Gary leaves tomorrow afternoon for a business trip, and gets back Sunday evening. Sigh...

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Sheryl, that is so much for you to deal with and I wish there were something we could do in support.

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

{{{Sheryl}}}

Emailed my dr re: Tdap and got a referral for a booster, which is now scheduled for next Wednesday. So I can get my flu shot tomorrow with my Covid booster, or next Wednesday with the Tdap, or wait another week and get it at work. Oh, wait, no, I’ll be on vacation then. Tomorrow still seems like the best plan.

David -the first season of GBBO is really different. There was a time limit on parts of the first challenge, they had a male voiceover and no star baker.

I found it on the Roku channel, so I'll have to give it a shot.

Also found all of Buffy on the Roku channel. Isn't it on Netflix?
