Also, we met a dog there. We couldn't adopt her on the spot because she has to meet Matilda, but...we'll go back on Saturday and if she's still available we'll get her.
Dog dog dog dog dog dog dog!!! Also yay, piggies!

Congrats on the new pets. I hope the dog works out, too, Hec.
I found out today that I was exposed to COVID on Monday. So tomorrow I’m testing. Yay.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
The laptop can be fixed. They have to send it back to the repair shop. Because it was still under Apple Care, it will only cost $99.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Well, that's some good news, Sheryl.

Glad to hear it, Sheryl!
Hecubus, I cannot recommend highly enough this book about rescue dogs. It's worth looking at the chapter about what to do the day you bring the dog home before you even get the dog. Here: [link]
I've had 3 rescues now, and all have had their own special issues, but establishing a good foundation helps enormously. Just FYI.

That’s great news Sheryl!
I’m concerned I have finally succumbed to the ick. I’m weirdly having this thing where just one side of my face is stuffy sinus/runny nose?? I took a covid test today but it just started last night so we shall see. Fingers crossed.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
That is great news Sheryl!
Dog! Dog for the Zmayhems!
Meara, I am always sick like that (one side of my head). But I tend to think something is just off about the right side of my body. Everything happens there.

That's good, Sheryl.
This morning's testing came back negative for COVID. I'll need to test a couple more times, but so far so good. In other news, I managed to lose an entire baking sheet. My apartment's not that big, and the baking sheet is, like 3' X 1.5'. How did it disappear? I lost the older one, with more unremovable (barring power tools) gunk, but still. I'm not even mad, just confused.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Glad it can be fixed Sheryl.
Yay new piggies and possible dog!
Boo sickies.
Happy Friday everyone. This week has been exhausting, even with taking Tuesday off.
I’m in that space of having so much to do that I am doing less than I would normally.
I still don’t have my tree up or outside decorations. That is TOP of the list for the weekend.

I woke up and everything hurts. It doesn't seem to be flu-like aches (plus I got a flu shot like a month ago), just everything is sore, like I was hit by a truck or did CrossFit or something. I'm going to blame it on the weather. I have strategically placed microwave beanbags on my back and shoulders, and I'm waiting for the ibuprofen to work its magic. I would cross my fingers, but that would probably hurt, too.

Same. The tree needs to go up regardless of whether Tim is finished tinkering with the train set. Right now the only decoration we have up is a wooden Santa perched on a picture frame. Oh, also snowman-themed dish towels in the kitchen, if those count.
