While owning a giant capybara would be fun, there us something to be said for just giving him a ride to his new home.

Went to check out the new, independent bookstore in Worthington, OH and found the perfect sticker to say “I’m sorry I accidentally ripped your heart out by sending your family a copy of Mira Grant’s Feed when you were only 13.” (Hallmark does not make a card for that.)
Brown paper shopping bag stamped with the Peacock Logo of The Whispering Page.  Lying in top are stickers that read “Don’t talk to me. my favorite character just dird” and “I’m not buying too many books.  I’m just supporting the local economy”. There is also a set of self-adhesive Tab Notes

For the last 12 years, I commuted 42 miles to work (each way) and got my medical care at a nearby town, so every appointment didn’t eat 4 hrs of PTO. Today I spent 2 hours reviewing the list of “in-network” specialists to arrange a colonoscopy and gynecologist appointment closer to home…

Today I made myself stop doomscrolling and playing tappy games and dug out my paints and some unfinished pieces i bought 4 years ago. I painted both sides so the can hang from light post by the front walk.

If you are a GenX American who still misses Diet Apple Slice (RIP), I recently stumbled across a close match. Polar Pink Apple & Lemon Seltzer + 25 mL of SodaStream Diet Ginger Ale syrup. A bit more lemon and ginger than the original but the smell is nostalgic.

Today I am marking the 250th anniversary of an idea, and reminding people that the United States was born on 6/21/1788 when the 13th colony ratified the Constitution. We have almost 12 years to plan a 250th birthday party for the Constitution.

Allstate Insurance has always denied that people can make plans to do things jn the future. Buying a car on Friday? Nope, you can’t enter a date beyond today on our website the future is unknowable. In the past, I would call my local agent, who would take down the information over the phone. 1/2

The neighbor walked around to ring our front doorbell to let us know that there was a dead raccoon curled against the chain link fence between our yards and they would appreciate it if we could remove/bury it. In retrospect, the possum who lives under the shed tried to tell us. 1/2

The only way to get whole milk Greek yogurt was in a multi-serving tub. So, i mixed the rest with berry jam. All-the-sugar + all-the-fat fruit yogurt is absolutely decadent compared to the single serve tubs….

After a decade of increasingly wavy, thinning hair, I leaned in, cut it short, and bought curl cream. And…over the next 2 years the curl weakened and weakend, and I’m back to a straight bob. (Stuck together with curl cream because it’s a straight dandelion fluff without it…)

The chill otter is laying down next to a phone with rainbow beams fanning out of it. They look at the phone and see it says June 1st, and after a brief contemplation, they snuggle up under a progress pride blanket, phone plugged in farther away.  It reads “It’s ok if you are tired. Happy *quiet, chill* Pride.”

I noticed thar some of the irises i purchased have skinnier leaves, but didn’t think to read the labels. So…apparently there are teacup irises? Or the ones i bought last year are the equivalent of labradoodles?

*sigh* I had a weak moment in Costco and bought dried fruit that has more sugar per oz than the licorice candy my husband picked up today. 1 oz of apple chunks: 18 grams of sugar, 9 grams added sugar. 1 oz of licorice: 11 grams of sugar, 11 grams added sugar.

If you’re making a mixed grain porridge and add pumpkin seed oil to the oats, buckwheat and millet as you sauté, you will think you have made a horrible mistake. As it cooks it looks like a swamp. The finished porridge looks normal, and has a nice toasted nut flavor….

My group is having themed Snack Breaks once a month. Tomorrow’s theme is “something you loved as a child”. The problem with being 55 is that everything nostalgic I either hate now (Apple Jacks) or it is no longer made (Nabisco Bacon Thins).
