I do it every night and there's always a few hundred MBs removed. I can't do any such thing because DH does all of that. If I do anything without checking with him first I could cause the internet to explode.

AMJ Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Allergies are going to take another toll on us again today -- I can tell already. What with yesterday's and last night's rain we had a hard time waking up this morning, and the news is full of all sorts of flooding stories everywhere. Luckily we live 4 miles from DH's work (in a neighborhood that sits a little higher) and he doesn't have to go near the highway or any low spots on his way there, so he'll be fine. I'm sure, however, that all of this wet is causing mold and mildew in spots I haven't found yet. I am looking at all of our meal options and putting together some interesting configurations, because I don't want to go to the grocery store until stuff dries out and roads clear. Time to hunker down a bit! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texasmama Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Also, I bought some CC cream made by Aveda at Target, and I LOVE it except it contains cancer-causing chemicals like Oxybenzene. Ugh. What's a girl to do? In addition, I wish I could get eyebrow tattoos because mine all fell out and when I draw them on sometimes I fear it is like the Seinfeld uncle's angry eyebrows episode. But I'm afraid I will look like Groucho Marx with eyebrow tattoos. (I haven't even had coffee yet. :leaving: ) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMJ Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I was afraid someone was going to say this! Summer project? Sure. At a page per day you should be all caught up in -- oh, never. We have been building the thread at the rate of 2 or 3 pages many days! You might stand a chance of catching up at reading 5 or more pages per day. Or do what my DH recommends and read from both ends. This way you get to chime in on the more recent stuff while gleaning the ages and ages of wisdom and insight gathered here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikslo Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 It wasn't even 10 PM here yet, and you are homeschooling, right? I assume you are a wonderful parent who lets her child get enough sleep regardless of when their bedtime is. My husband and I both work FT. DH works second shift. So we homeschool evenings, and are usually not in bed until 12/12:30. Then he sleeps in in the morning with dad. He's just a night owl by default. It's what we need to do to make this homeschool thing work and he's onboard. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just another thing for him to add to his list. Best wishes to all off you suffering from allergies right now - they suck. Yup, could very well be. We are the only house in our neighborhood without azaleas. People think we are nuts, because they are so beautiful and do so well here. Well, they don't do that well in our west-facing front yard (they get cooked in the afternoon), and DH is allergic to them. We took them out and planted roses and crepe myrtles instead. DD13 is allergic to a LOT of things, though none of them food, thankfully. We live in a place where most any time of year there will be allergens to deal with.
