Slache Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Slache, you know, our kids could be related. I noticed. Your littlest looks exactly like Matt when he was little. And Mooies looks like your daughter. Is her hair dyed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrissiK Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Recipe? It's actually a basic white bread recipe with 1/2 tsp. crush anise seed and 1/2 tsp. crushed fennel. I shaped a round loaf on a cookie sheet and baked it, rather than put it in a loaf pan. It's really good when it's still fairly warm out of the oven and you put butter on it and the butter melts all over it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsuga Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I finished my taxes! I am getting so much money back! I really need to reduce my deductions on the forms so I can use that during the year but I use this for forced savings... I should do something really boring with it, such as pay down student loans, but I think I will also get a ski rack for the car since my partner is turning his leased car ( :thumbdown: this is why I can't get married ever again, no men in my social class are remotely as frugal or financially cowardly as I am) and with it, the roof rack. We cross-country ski so no lift tickets allowed. Just good old fashioned getting yourself from point A to point B, no whining. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm spending about 100 at rainbow resources, possibly getting a roomba knockoff and putting the rest in savings for our cross country move. It's all very boring. We don't know how much we're getting yet but I've got my fingers crossed for like 50 grand. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Day six of getting my lower and my higher step goal. (Though I suppose if I just list my higher one that assumes that the lower one is also met. ;) ) Day 2 of drinking a cup of bone broth. Which I don't really like all that much. But I'm drinking anyway. :angelsad2: 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 (edited) My insomnia is bad enough again that I'm using it instead of trying to sleep through it and failing. My living room and kitchen are gorgeous. I should read. Fingers crossed! :hat: I personally don't know that the Roomba is worth it. I'd save for fast food on the move so you don't have to keep refilling a smelly cooler with questionable ice. It's only $170 and we vacuum every day because dog + asthma so it's worth it to us.

Paige Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 It's a 2 cups of coffee morning! I don't want to take Baby to church because of the flu risks. All this talk about transmission through air and ventilation systems freaks me out. And he's a sweet little baby who's never been sick. :001_wub: But DH thinks it's crazy so we will go. He's all que sera sera... but I am not. Our zip code has us in the moderate flu activity category; if we bump up to severe I'll insist on staying home! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I have to own everything Peter Beagle ever wrote. Just finished one of his short stories and I ache from wanting to write like that. He's Rembrandt and I'm picking through my box of brushes and paints and slapping poor imitations on my pages trying to imitate the master.

Critterfixer Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I've gotten some writing done, read some stories, and worked on a bookmark for a reader who admired the two I made and picked out her favorite. So I'm painting one for her. Also have a gorgeous photo of ice in one of our little streams to paint. My art instructor sent it to me. That's how she assigns homework. :D 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoJosMom Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I have a morbid fascination with the college board and their lurid tales of college costs. But I finally thought, you know, I should look up how much the local state university would actually be. They have a three question estimator online (where you’re from, planning to live on or off campus, GPA and ACT/SAT) so I plugged in our location, off campus (bc the kids can live at home), and my old GPA/ACT. $7,000 a year. Feeling less freaked out now. Now calculate your numbers again with Jo moving in with you in August 2020. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luuknam Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 What if he gets stuck at 4'11 (like I did...)? Very unlikely to happen - he'll probably be 5'5", and nobody in our extended families is that short - my mom is the shortest at 5'1". Realistically, at some point I'd get bored with 5th grade and move on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
