Y'all I swear all COVID has me wanting to do is spend money. Because my other options like hanging out with people or traveling are not available, I'm deep diving into expensive refrigerators (because the fridge I have is old, and the space I have is skinny, and it's either "apartment size fridge" or "expensive super tall skinny euro fridge" apparently), cabinet resurfacing (because I dislike mine), new countertops (hate mine even more than the cabinets), new mattress (but how do you choose online?), new bed frame (while I'm at it), anything and everything....I haven't purchased anything, but I've just spent a few hours online looking at all of it...

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Steph, how is Tim feeling? How are you

Tim’s symptoms today are still just like a moderately bad cold. No fever, O2 level is normal. Hopefully his symptoms will stay at Ugh-This-Damn-Cold level.

I have pretty much the same symptoms (I am in fact posting from bed), so I won’t be surprised if my Covid test result is positive, too (I got tested at noon today).

So, mild symptoms all around, and hopefully they’ll stay that way. Oh, plus Tim gets the monoclonal antibody treatment this week, which is just cool from a medical nerd perspective.

Thrive to spite them

Steph I hope you and Tim continue to have mild symptoms and get over this quickly.

I need to have my passcode for the computer somewhere. I have most of my passwords set up for auto fill because I can't remember what they are most of the time. I try to be good and not re use pass words but this then means I make something and then promptly forget what it was.

Apparently my medicine has gone up for the year or the coupon I've been using doesn't do as much because it was$30 more than I was expecting. I also discovered I've misplaced my HSA card and so I guess I need to get a replacement for that for next month.

I have no idea what you're talking about!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Yep, sounds about right.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Teppy, I hope your and Tim’s symptoms continue to be mild. That was a difficult sentence to construct, and I am not sure I got the possessive correct.

Thanks again Jesse for the bed jacket pattern last week. I am working on the yoke, and not had to rip it out once! I prefer written patterns, but I always mess them up the first time.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yes, the types of different flour we have is currently at 5, which seems like a lot.

And smooth COVID vibes for Tim and Steph.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm not gonna count the flours. I'll just nod in agreement.

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

I am putting a lot of effort into not spending money and being kind of successful. Not acquiring much stuff lately, at least.
