Renai Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 5am class. But, I'm used to getting up at 3:40 everyday, teaching, going back to sleep for another hour or two. I guess it's finally catching up with me. After next week (because I'm already booked to teach), I've already removed 4am slots, and will now just start at 4:30. Hopefully that will help me function better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 How can we be out of bread? We had 3 loaves on Tuesday. Now we have none. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luuknam Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 I am! Actually, I'm going to go down and check out the hole in the driveway, which is my chocolate pool when I'm not on the island, give DH some grief and some chocolate and then Imma write. FTFY. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Not the decluttering, but the talking to objects is likely from the animism* of Shinto, not some cutesy thing she just came up with out of nowhere. I’ve read other people remarking on it as well. *wikipedia says animism is not quite the correct term and it’s actually the concept of kami, but that’s getting deep into distinctions Yes. That’s why I don’t think that it is cute. I know that the general principles have helped many people but I can’t see it in a neutral fashion. But I don’t see other religions in a neutral fashion. (Now please understand that I don’t go around trying to rain on people’s parade. I am just responding to your thoughts on animism/ Shinto. ). Note: Christians in Japan also use the word kami for God but with different nuances. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Lynn Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Jean, I vote putting the pans where you had them, informing him if necessary, and only getting irritated if he has a problem with it. Let us know if we're needed!! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then we will cut them out with a jig saw. And will coat them with a glow in the dark epoxy.

KrissiK Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Is there a way to just take my face off, to relieve the pressure for awhile? I'll put it back on later.

KrissiK Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 I think I'm going to have eggs, smashed potatoes and bacon for dinner tonight. But I can't figure out what I want for the rest of the week. I think I might roast a pork shoulder and make sandwiches. I made taco soup. I love it and with the new WW points system, it's only three points. Of course, the Kirkland European cookies I had for dessert are much more than that. But I tracked them. :sad: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
