Susan in TN Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I went to the independent thrift store first - found a couple things for the girls and ds15, and saw one of the sweaters I donated there a couple weeks ago. It was my favorite. I was a good girl and did not buy it back. It was kinda nice to touch it and say hello, though. Then I went to Goodwill. They are no longer doing the Super Saturday thing so it wasn't a madhouse. Didn't find much there that we needed. When I got back home, dh asked if I had any trouble with the Goodwill drop-off and I was like, huh? Apparently he had put all the donation bags in the back of the van. Oops. Time for lunch! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I'm taking a break to eat lunch. It's amazing how much construction dust there still is despite having vacuumed and wiped things down already. Living room is almost done. I may then do bathroom and/or kitchen, or I may just continue with laundry today and do bathroom and kitchen tomorrow. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovely Bookishness Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I still haven't gone back to the basement. I think the spiders are winning. I did feed everyone, make a trip to the hardware store, and foot a ladder on the roof so Dave could climb up to the higher roof to install the chimney cap and hopefully keep the squirrels from stealing the insulation from the walls to line their nests. Now we're watching The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, & The Wardrobe. I'm going to try to convince Dave to order Chinese food for dinner because I have a migraine flirting with me. I don't like flirting with migraines. 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrissiK Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Party is going well. I ordered waaaaay too much pizza, but Little Caesar’s is extremely cheap and I won’t have to think of something for lunch tomorrow. The craft went well. They turned out really cute. I am pleased. Right now they are upstairs playing with a game Baby got as a gift, so all is well in Birthday Party Land. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junie Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Dh is making dinner tonight. Not sure what it is, but I heard the fryer heating up a little while ago and I smell garlic. Either there's a lot of garlic or I've got a migraine coming on, 'cause it's kind of strong. :) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
73349 Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Pantz arrived (only took 15 days!) and are washing. Twill arrived and is ready to sew (maybe tomorrow afternoon). Calendar for next year is made and can be given to the printer Monday. Film is installed on a window. DH and DS helped at a litter clean-up. BFF was supervised in cutting her DD's hair. DS washed his sheets. DH made dinner. We may have won Saturday! Renovation people have not emailed me back. If they don't contact me by Tuesday, I will invite somebody else to come do an estimate instead. We're taking a fall break this week. (I had originally marked it "Leave open for travel," but that's not a thing.) Staycation it is. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What determines how the citizens of an area are referred to, like if it's -ers, -ians, -ahns. I am trying to figure out the rhyme or reason here and it's eluding me. Examples- Texans, Utahns, Michiganders, New Hampshirities (this sounds like something out of the Old Testament). Is there some sort of grammar rule in play here? I think it's mostly about sound. Not Utah-ites (or Carolina-ites or Florida-ites or Pennsylvania-ites) because it would stick two vowels together.

Lovely Bookishness Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 We did ham sandwiches & fruit for dinner. It was all I could manage, and it's cheaper than Chinese since I already have it.

Jean in Newcastle Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Our contractor neighbor with the man-bun gave us the name of a great place to get kitchen cabinets. It looked super sketchy from the outside but had really nice products inside. All wood. For IKEA prices.

Wheres Toto Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 I've been to Whataburger. I went to college in Fort Worth and there was one not far from campus. I can't remember if it was good or bad though. I cleaned the living room and cleaned the bathroom and finished up a class for Monday and did a bunch of laundry and gave the kids theirs to put away (eventually). Tomorrow I'll clean the kitchen and finish the laundry. Dh is at his mom's but coming home early tomorrow because he has to make 3 or 4 trips to pick up stuff from Home Depot. Both HD and Lowes are really really really stupid when setting up deliveries. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Switching from rice cereal to oatmeal was a good call. He is eating less frequently, throwing up less, and more regular on the diaper front which is good because I think his stomach used to hurt a lot. Thank you for the idea guys. I would not have done it on my own. Actually, after you guys brought it up I looked it up on the American Pediatric website and found that they do not recommend rice cereal due to the levels of arsenic. I guess that's what's wrong with my other kids. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
