I read this as "How are you farting today?" Um... a little personal don't you think?

I agree with you. Everyday life is expensive everywhere and it's harder for some vs others. Stopping people from earning a living isn't going to help.

Yellow alert? Is Gary in France? Quick! Hide all the cats! What are they protesting? That really sucks you can't get back to your apartment. What about classes?

and ice fishing 🐟

Snow days are nice, although the cleanup isn't fun. I usually get one or two per year, but it can be more or less, depending on how much snow the lake feels like dumping on us before it freezes over.

I read this story ages ago and really enjoyed it. It's definitely worth the read.

Page 60 already

🙄 Thanks. 😛

Apparently I need to increase my screen magnification. Or actually wear my reading glasses.

It's snowing here. You can have it. 😛

I made a casserole, cleaned the kitchen, sorted through a pile of papers, and boxed up a couple of Christmas presents for international shipment. Now I have my comfies on and am going to watch TV and play around on the computer

LOL well that tells you how good my eyesight is. I thought it was crying

Why the sad face?

I like going grocery shopping early to avoid the crowds. Plus, now I can cook today

I went grocery shopping, stopped at DD for brekkie, cleaned out the fridge, put all my groceries away... all by 8:15 this morning Now what to do for the rest of the day....

I studied French for four years in high school. One of our projects involved cooking. I made my family a meal of coq au vin. It was soooo gooood.

When I visit Saratoga I make sure to stop at a French bakery there. They have the most incredible baked goods. I had a croque monsieur there once and it was the best sandwich I ever ate. 🤤

Sounds like Froggie needs a bath

This costochondritis is not fun. The pain is worse instead of better. I think I'll be calling the doctor again on Tuesday, because I can't imagine it will be better by then. I don't think I'll be doing much today. Probably editing and writing.

You're welcome 😛

Sometimes writing the blurb takes me longer than the story itself. Well... not really, but it feels like it. I like to keep my story blurbs short and simple. Two or three lines to draw the reader in. Titles, for me, are hit or miss. There are some stories I wrote and had the title already in mind, and others where I struggled for days to come up with something that fit.

My drive in wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. We got several inches of snow overnight. It snowed throughout the day and the drive home was yukky near work, but got better closer to home. I took my car in to get the brakes checked out and they couldn't find anything wrong with them, so that's good news. Even better news is that my mechanic didn't charge me

I tried, but I didn't know the answer to the security question They wanted to know the expiration date of a credit card I haven't had in years. So I was locked out of my account after too many wrong answers and was told I needed to call and have them reset the password. I deleted all my old cards so it doesn't happen again.

I managed to get myself locked out of my Amazon account this morning So I had to call customer service to get my password reset. OMG I spent about ten minutes spelling my email address and the guy got it wrong every. single. time. I'm a patient person, but OMG. I asked if there was another way he could look up my account. By name or address or something. Nope. Only if I had an order number. Well I'm not at home, so don't have any paperwork from recent orders with me. He mentioned email, so I was able to find an order number in my deleted emails. So he tells me the email address I'm providing doesn't match the email on the account. And he wouldn't tell me what email was on the account. So I tell him if there's something different than what I've been telling him then my account has been hacked because I've had the account since 2008 and have never changed my email on it. I tell him my email address one more time--the same one I've been spelling for ten minutes--and he tells me 'yes, that's the one on the account, but it's different from what you were spelling." *headdesk* *deep breath* So we finally manage to get the password reset email sent and now I can spend a crap ton of money on Amazon again. But OMG just OMG how many times can you spell the same email? And it's not that unusual an email address

Mine would revenge pee on everything he owns.
