A kid who licked toilets as part of the #CoronaVirusChallenge says he's now in the hospital with coronavirus. @gayshawnmendes was also just suspended from twitter
Boy. It looks like I need to wake up before I post something. Perhaps the positive reinforcement helped Former Resident for her future of bill paying.
The wayward pencil made its way safely, if opened, to my mailbox. As I said, people here are honest. Had it been in Vegas, I would never see it again.
I also got copies of my hometown newspaper with a bio of one of my ancestors who helped to settle said hometown. It was quite interesting, so I got a copy for my Real Brother, each of My Favorite Children, and at least one grandchild, as well as myself. Yippee! Very interesting story, to be sure!
If you’re interested, I can clip it, copy it and send it to you. Email or hard copy.
Yes, I understand having Tom do all the Tall Work because I was a victim of that, myself! ;o]
Although you are tall compared to me, you are petite compared to Tom the Son!
Congratulations on the safe arrival of all your mail. I’m putting off the mortgage payment until Monday (June 1), because the bank gets confused if they receive more than one payment in a calendar month.
I know. I went through much the same thing on Thursday at the pain clinic. We decided that the extended release morphine was not going to work, so I told the doc that using 1-1/2 tablets will often get me to eight hours of pain relief, whereas, one will only give me six hours on a good day.
He printed out a prescription, proof read it and said to change it because the peeps in the pharmacy get confused easily! Yes. Yes, they do!
Oh, yes. The library had some new bookmarks so I’ll be sending them today or Monday. Just because!
Their billing department sends a new bill shortly after you pay the previous one. If, on May 1, I pay the bill due on May 31, they’ll send the bill due on June 30 a week later. However, if I pay the bill due on June 30 before June 1, their payment-processing department will treat it as an escrow contribution (who would even do that?) instead of the June mortgage payment.
Dopes. But their rates are low and they don’t resell the loans, so it’s worth it.
Super exciting! Mecklenburg Libraries still aren’t open, and I haven’t found a reason to go to Union.
These are not necessarily “exciting,” but you and I do bookmarks the same way — we forget they’re in the books. I found one today in a book I’ve decided to send to my Favorite Son, and now, I think I want to glue it to another one to make it stiff. It looks slightly bed-raggled because it has a frog on it.
FYI: I’ve taken to calling Camilla “Godzilla” because she’s a little feathered monster. And MESSY!
Gonzo and Godzilla. A fine pair! I do run out of bookmarks because they’re in so many different books at the same time. Then I end up sticking Walmart receipts in the books.
I’ll keep sending as many bookmarks as I can find!
That is very helpful.
Well, eventually, you’ll run out of Walmart receipts, right? So maybe I’ll just make you some bookmarks and not wait for the library... ;o])
On the other hand, I could finish a book and repurpose the bookmark!
But if I make some for you, maybe you won’t want to repurpose them?
I meant “repurpose by putting in a different book”! (I see how that wouldn’t have been obvious.)
Well, you know how my brain works (or doesn’t) some days!
I took my brain to lie down for a while, but the ambient noise level is pretty high today.
I’ve been pretty antsy today for some reason, and I hate that because I always make a mess trying to find something to keep my hands busy.
I heard a noise that I thought was someone at my door about 90 minutes ago, but when I checked, no one was there. For some reason, I checked the disused mail box by my door and found a card in an envelope that had been there since December.
I opened it and it was a card that Lora had put in there shortly after she had taken Harley because I had “left him for so long he was shivering.” She was offering her “help.” The woman has no clue about anything.
Just watched liftoff...
I’ve been outside, because it’s not raining. Epic Fail mowed the front lawn very poorly, even by his standards. I’m not going to pay him.
Nothing like a little incentive to make sure the job is done correctly next time. Or you could ask him if that's how he wants his own lawn to look...
Now, I'm going to go shower. For some reason in the middle of my night, I thought I would wake up to a Monday and I was all set to gear my mind for a 0130 wake up call. Then I remembered...Sunday!
