  1. DS deployed today on 36 hours notice. I'd like very much to hide and not people. I stead I have to take younger DS to the optometrist.
  2. There is a spice shop here in town where I can buy in bulk or buy a tiny quantity of something I only need a bit of.
  3. One thing that helps me with the identical issue is using a straw. I bought tervis with a straw lid. I drink a lot more with a straw than with a glass I have to sip.
  4. Last time I needed hose I got them at Target.
  5. My children have a list of rules. All three of them could recite them. When they are going somewhere or something I don't say something like "Be Good or Drive Safe" I say Rule #1. Rule #1 Don't Be A Dumbass (this rule applies to everything and all other rules are covered by it) Rule #2 Don't Do Meth. (This dates to a time period where there were billboards on our drive to scouts that said things like "Talk to your kids about meth" and I'd turn to Oldest and say "Hey kid, don't do meth." And he would say "good talk, Mom." It applies to recreational drugs, over drinking, etc. Again might say to a young adult going to a party, "what's rule #2? ") Rule #3 Stay in School /Mom is probably right (alternate rule dates to when we pulled kids out of school to homeschool). Rule #4 Don't Set Yourself on Fire (seems obvious. Required clarification.) Rule #5 Don't Give People Shellshock Edited to add - art was a gift from DIL, hangs in our school room/office.
  6. Take her to a comic book shop. Let her browse (they usually have a separate section of childrens titles).
  7. Just make sure they know... selfies aren't how you really look either! The close angle and wide lens distort the face! https://www.vgplasticsurgery.com/blogs/phone-cameras-selfies-distort-face-making-face-nose-look-wider-longer/#:~:text=Phone cameras and selfies have,making them wider and longer.&text=Taking face photos with short,longer than in real life.
  8. In my area free masks are available through the library. But that might be a more local.program.
  9. I hate that this song is now in my head. HATE.
  10. That depends on how many pairs of scrunched socks you're wearing with them.
  11. It is a word! That Ruben guy told us a funny story where he introduced himself to someone as a luger and the other person misheard him as saying "Oh I'm a loser!" And there was a whole thing.
