  1. I hope you find a good doctor who checks your blood for not only all the thyroid hormones but also parathyroid.
  2. How about that Redskins flag? Still there?
  3. I have the same model Corraleno linked above. I have added only a few things: a basket and rings of different colors that seal the lid. (People do this to avoid making yogurt that smells like chicken, for ex.) I would still get that 6 QT size for a household of 1 to make soup, hard boiled eggs, potatoes, beans, etc. Bulk cooking. I use the basket insert I bought for a dozen or more hard boiled eggs and for potatoes and sweet potatoes. I love mine and have no shame in being in this cult, lol.
  4. Wow, so many changes! Enjoy your visit! Please say hello to all the gang from me! I'm a terrible human being for not staying in touch, that's my defense.
  5. Hey, girl! How are you? Life is going by at the speed of light here. *Swish!*
  6. "Refreshing to the weeds" Let the company know it also acts as a spa treatment for weeds.
  7. Yes to e-cloth which is cheaper than Norwex. I got an eco-friendly-minded loved one some Swedish dish cloths to replace paper towels. IIRC, they are compostable once they've lived out all their days.
  8. I doubt the recipient will see this, so I'll post here: THREE, not one, not two, but THREE shirts displaying the current World Series Champions! THE WASHINGTON NATIONALS!!!! What? Why is that unique? Because the teams we like NEVER WIN!!!
  9. Christmas is one month from today!!! We're practical gift givers and only send about 3 Christmas cards. I have about 1/2 of the shopping done. Once MIL & FIL are taken care of, I'll feel much better. Are those who celebrate Christmas getting ready? *Whispering this part* We put our tree up over a week ago. Fake. Pre-lit. Not one decoration on it yet.
  10. If you have to wait for that book to arrive, one thing you could do immediately is start a gratitude journal. Or just write out 5 things you're grateful for each day on a piece of paper. If you don't want anyone to see what you write, you could shred it as soon as you're done.
  11. I know Amazon does crazy things with pricing, but I am still hoping that Black Friday and/or Cyber Monday brings a deal on the 6 qt Instant Pot. I saw a red one for $60 a couple weeks ago, but the person I want it for wouldn't like that color. I saw an early BF price on that model at Target, but it wasn't as low as the Prime Day price of $50 (IIRC). Am I crazy to hope it will drop again? And if so, which day BF or CM? ETA: Full disclosure: If there is a code for books again on Amazon this year, I will use it!!!
  12. Nothing like hearing Handel's Messiah to get me in the mood. I'm fortunate that the first local performances aren't until early December.
  13. Tears here! Thanks for posting it. I hadn't seen it. I will cry every time I see it!
  14. Paddle to the Sea!!! *Warm, fuzzy memories of reading HCH books w/ my littles* Sniff, sniff.
  15. Aren't there studies that show it's bad for our health? All I know is I have what almost feels as bad as jet lag at both time changes for about 2 weeks. I should do what mothers do the week or two before and change bed time to help littles adjust.
  16. Loved "the boys" (as Davey calls them - DH and I joke that it would make a good drinking game to take a drink every time Davey says "the boys" in a press conference, lol), Zim's getting emotional, the Parra/Sanchez/Strasberg/Scherzer hugging, and no F bombs (I'm looking at you, Alex Ovechkin). Great sign and great photo of you, Farrar! So nice to see you. 🙂 Any idea how many people were there? It looked like a good crowd, and that's what I hoped for on a Saturday. Still pinching myself and so happy!
  17. Watching now on the MLB Network (not Channel) and despite its being a glorious day there in DC and here where I live, it is not coming in clearly! ACK! It's a long shot, but anyone find a source to stream it? No clue why the picture is pixelated, but I'm not happy! Update: Found this link. YAY! Also, MASN is showing it and that channel is crystal clear!
  18. I just set the DVR to record the parade on the MLB channel. Have fun, Farrar, and please tell us all about it!
  19. I could do w/o seeing Soto's saliva going down his chin here, but LOL at Turner and how sweet - and fitting - an ending w/ Parra.
  20. The hubs is a definite NO on the parade, but I haven't ruled it out. I will PM you if it looks like I'll go. My boss is probably going to take his 9 yos, but I wouldn't dream of asking if I could tag along. Regardless if I attend or not, please come back here and tell us all about the parade, OK? I would have responded earlier, but we went to bed super early last night! This World Series wore us out! I slept very little after they won.
