The M&M crop is coming along nicely
Pretty!
Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

Yay, power!
Kitchen light fixture has been replaced, but when it was done I hated everything.
I have done the business planning, as much as I could do, and what I did mostly was done poorly.

That does look kind of like an M&M plant!
I guess maybe next time I go get a prescription refill at the pharmacy I'll ask for a flu shot. I do usually get one, but last year I went in like early October and felt like I was ahead of the game, so it's only the past couple days that I'm like "wait, I need to do it NOW?"
Lactose is better than gluten free because there are pills, and better options. But sadly I guess you don't really get to pick.

I'm glad that I seem to have inspired some vaccine resolutions. However, the last 24 hours have been rough. Soon after posting, one or more of my shots hit me like a ton of bricks. Fever similar to my second COVID shot but with many more chills. Many more. I was shaking so hard it was comical. Temperature finally came down to normal around midday. Splitting headache for much of today.
Still, better than having Shingles. And, as the MG (helpfully?) pointed out, now I can step on all the rusty nails I want!
Used my cauliflower thins as the bun, with lettuce, thick slice of heirloom tomato (seasoned), bit of pickle and it was SO decadent. That's not really diet food with all the fatty deliciousness, but I certainly didn't miss the traditional bun.
I think I need more info on these cauliflower thins. We eat burgers with cheese, but without buns, so we don't really do toppings and I miss them.
Also, this is just to say, everyone deserves perfectly dyed, fabulous hair.

That sounds miserable, megan, but, yeah, better than shingles.

I will note the first time I made a sandwich with this (Pastrami with Swiss) my nose immediately said, "That's not bread!" Imagine the look on a dog's face when it smells another dog on you. My brain said, "Oooh! Cheater!"
However, once past that barrier it's inconsequential.

The shingles vax hit my husband hard, so it could very well be that.

David my problem is long term vs short term rewards. Would avoiding this potato chip and the next one help me be not in pain someday? Sure. But would it make my mouth and my dopamine receptors happy right NOW? Yes.
Being on my ADHD medication has helped me so much with this.

At Walgreens to get my flu shot and there are a couple people getting their first COVID shot. Mentally giving them a thumbs up.
