  1. How are you doing today?

    I have zero reasons to wear anything notable these days. My coat is always on. I am sorting through things to donate and came a dress I forgot I owned. I think I will keep it although I suspect it will be a long time before I can wear it.
  4. A couple of new firm pillows may help you get comfortable because sleeping positions might be awkward for a while. Candles are a bonus especially for the bathroom breaks. You may be cold often so anything that will keep you warm is totally an act of self care. Good Luck ❤️
  5. Yay! Another Bibliophile ♥️
  6. King Arthur flour was nearly impossible to find at Walmart since everyone decided to start baking bread at the beginning of the pandemic. I had to start using great value unbleached which turns out to be a decent sub. AND I couldn't find bread machine yeast for about 2 months so I was rationing everything. Ok I am going to try it again.
  7. Condolences to you and your daughter on your loss.
  8. This is super exciting! Is your husband as excited as we are ? ?
  9. OMG thanks for posting the packaging! I used to be enchanted with the idea of everything I need in one place (Walmart). Now it feels like a labyrinth and I'm tired before I even get there. I tried pick up/delivery once but there were so many substitutions or unavailable items I had to cancel the order.
  10. Turkey Bacon, Cheese and Avocado Wrap. It was originally just going to be turkey bacon and cheese but I forget I needed to finish an avocado I opened. If I make it again I would go without the cheese or less avocado. It's relatively high calorie compared to what I was aiming for but worth it.
  11. Great. Now I have to go to Walmart again this week ?
  12. I love small booklets ? Yes I have seen and dealt with it. I mostly try to ignore it or choose very carefully where I want to participate. I'm trying to give everyone a *little* grace these because we're all having a rough time in some way. I think we're likely to see patterns of general negativity rise everywhere especially when times are tough. The simplest thing can be to leave those negative platforms. That may be the right choice for your happiness and well being. A harder path maybe to try and push out the negativity. Positivity can spread just like negativity, but it takes more effort to cultivate. Viktor E. Frankl's writes in his memoirs of the Holocaust, Man's Search for Meaning : "For the world is in a bad state, but everything will become still worse unless each of us does his best." This always stuck with me. I couldn't understand how someone who experienced the very worst of human behavior could find peace again (if you read the book he outlines his philosophical theories). I hope the forums (and world to a greater extent) become positive and enjoyable again ♥️
  13. Congratulations ?
  14. My suggestion is to use a heating pad with auto-off timer instead of a blow-dryer (too risky). I use a heating pad/heated blanket/heated bed sheets nearly constantly since surgery because I'm also ALWAYS cold.
  15. Ok these are pro level tortillas ??
