The Drop in Centre

[rickproehl]

Excuse me Good Sirs and DiC friends.

just wanted to stop in and say Good Morning 

i was looking for some positive thoughts and found this one.

Did I offer peace today? Did I bring a smile to someone's face? Did I say words of healing? Did I let go of my anger and resentment? Did I forgive? Did I love? These are the real questions. I must trust that the little bit of love that I sow now will bear many fruits, here in this world and the life to come.

May you have a Wonderful Day.

yesterday wasn't a good day; hoping today will be better

too much stuff to get done and the weather isn't helping w. the joints -- or the mold count

Hope today is better for you Fae! My knees have been riding the pain train for a while now. Nothing really helps anymore, but still trying to stay positive.

Just burned 2,000 calories. That's the last time I leave brownies in the oven while I nap

I recommend a kitchen timer.  That's all we use our Alexa for, that and the weather.

I was pregnant with son 2 and fell asleep after making cookies while son 1 who was 3 years old was watching a video. When I woke up there were at least five or six cookies gone and the kid had chocolate all over his face and hands. I asked him if he ate the cookies and that little bugger looked me straight in the eye and and said "No Mommy, Lucky dog did." 🤔🤣 

I'm glad your brownie disaster turned out ok. 

I hope everyone had a good day!

Why do they always think they can lie to mommy?

Gram used to tell us moms are walking lie detectors!

@Mikiesboy @MichaelS36 

I wore the Canada Strong mask when I did the weekly grocery shopping this morning. Have to say, I am impressed. I made sure the nose piece was pinched well in place, and what a relief it was that: 

1. It didn’t slip once, so

2. I had no episodes of walking through fog.  

A satisfied customer, I am. 

Thanks again for alerting me to this mask, Mike. 

Oh, and good morning DiCers on yet another glorious morning. Hope it’s a good one for you as well.

i was impressed too ... even with no filter there are 3 layers of cotton.  I've washed ours and they wash up nicely. i hung them to dry indoors and have out in the sun and they keep their shape etc.  They were worth buying and worth the wait.

Yes, they are sturdy, aren’t they? 

Question. Did you hand wash them? I originally thought of putting them in the regular wash, but that doesn’t seem like good idea as I’m thinking about it now.

Yes, i washed them by hand. In hot soapy water. I let them soak for 5 minutes as i'd read somewhere. Then squeezed them a few times and rinsed well. I don't want to put them in the machine.

Yes, this is good.  However, I don't how it works elsewhere, my place does not promote people. If there is a job available, it's posted and you can apply for it, that may make things a bit fairer, in a world where the 'squeaky wheel gets the grease'.  Maybe not it's not perfect but it helps some.

My boss i'm fairly sure is not an extrovert.

Interesting article, molly, thanks for sharing it.

Sounds like the best method, so that’s what I’ll do as well.
