    What's everybody doing today?

    Magus, are you able to make it to an urgent care place or anywhere to get help? 12icemaker, that sounds about like Fedex. Sometimes I think they purposely misdeliver or "lose" stuff so they can use it themselves or sell it to someone. Fedex sucks. My attempt to get a nap was thwarted. H&R...

    Rant for the Day (keep it clean)

    backlash, I hope you get feeling better soon. My good news turned into bad news. The H&R Block servers went down yesterday and are not back up yet. Thousands of customers are unable to file. Furthermore, people are being charged by H&R Block for every failed attempt to file. They said it would...

    What's everybody doing today?

    I was up pretty much all night. Brain wouldn't let me sleep. Probably will take a nap soon. I may have to run to the store again to get oranges because I forgot to get them last time. My brother apparently couldn't be bothered to google how to retrieve his 2022 AGI so I did it and sent him the...

    That is just awful, Magus. Sending you big hugs. Hope you get feeling better. Turning an ankle on its own sucks, but having the trots and then the cramps. Ugh. I know that feeling. I actually have some good news. Well, my gripe is that I couldn't get to sleep because I was worried about my...

    Yeesh. I hope you can get some relief soon Magus. Having tooth pain can drive the bp up, but they only care about their own liability. I'm absolutely exhausted. Brother dragged ass and didn't get info for his taxes yet. No idea how to find his adjusted gross income from 2022 (can't seem to find...

    Post A Photo, A Real Photo

    I saw another vehicle in the parking lot and felt bad for the owner. Looks like someone had a bad day. Not only was their mirror smashed, but a bird decided to leave a present on the back door to add insult to injury.

    What's everybody doing today?

    I'm glad to see Magus back. Been absolutely exhausted the past few days. Yesterday I was in absolute sloth mode. My body felt heavy and slow. I lumbered around and couldn't get much done. I just had to keep sleeping. Today was not much better, but I made a grocery run and brought in the cases...

    Post A Photo, A Real Photo

    Yeah, that was a neat option on Walmart. Doesn't help if a company from China sends the wrong thing though. LOL. Reminds me of some videos I watched where people order stuff online and then compare it to what the product photos looked like online and how often they look nothing like the...

    Mom wanted food again. Fortunately she likes the lo mein and the green beans from the Chinese place and I got the "family size" versions so it should last a couple of days.

    I think my mom was surprised that I learned to cook-- although I use the microwave a lot. I'm not very good at it and I don't enjoy it. I realized I was wrong about the hand crank thing being a screwdriver, it was a drill. I also had a flat head screwdriver. They were all designed for smaller...

    What's everybody doing today?

    I couldn't get much sleep last night. Mom's blood sugar kept going too low and I had to keep getting her some apple juice and stuff. Got maybe 2 hours of rest and had to go for Samsclub curbside pickup. I put in an order for takeout at the chinese place and it took 10+ minutes for my stuff at...

    Another new cat???😮🤔

    I always hate that feeling when they don't turn up and you don't know if they will ever come back. Hopefully she will come back though.

    old tex, I live in a town with about 6k people so it is very hard to find stuff. I usually have to drive an hour away to a town that has a population of 44k. Still can't find stuff. The ceiling fan thing reminds me that my Evergo fan no longer works. I don't know if its the power to it not...

    Post A Photo, A Real Photo

    So, I ordered a shirt from Amazon that was shipped two weeks ago. It finally arrived. This is the stock photo of the shirt advertised This is my brother wearing the shirt that arrived: It is definitely not the same shirt. LOL. Also, he had to make a silly face when I took his picture. It says...

    Amish Heart, family members dying can bring out the worst in some members. I'm glad you have at least one sensible sister to handle things. I didn't get as much rest as I'd wanted. Mom took 30 units of insulin with her food and then when her sugar didn't come down in like 5 minutes or so she...

    As an update, my brother finally received his correct W2 forms so now we just need Mom to show him how to fill in the info. She's always done his taxes for him. She was actually an official volunteer doing people's taxes and helping them with taxes at the US embassy in Singapore when we lived...

    We Love Our Music

    Yeah. That's why I found it so amusing. My cousin's ex-husband made Christian heavy metal. All the screaming/headbanging stuff with "Jesus loves you". It was weird. He had a one-man band called Scionica or something.

    What's everybody doing today?

    Mom woke me up to take her to get her bloodwork to satisfy the idiots at Medicare so maybe they might approve her insulin pump. I dropped her off while I picked up McDonalds breakfast per her request. I ordered on the app before driving in and then waited at curbside for 5min before they brought...

    Weather in your area?

    It was 58°F when I went out this morning. It's now 68 and sunny.

    What's everybody doing today?

    Amish, I'm so sorry about your Mom. No matter how old a loved one is, it always sucks to lose them. Dade, those shelves look very cool! Bluedanube, those joists looked like a mess! Reminds me of the ones in my friend's bathroom when he had to gut it. Hope the repairs are going well. Power...
