@Britesea yea, we'll have to see what's out there. Part of me wants to get something really cheap, and the other part of me just wants to try to scrape together the funds to get something decent. This was a cheap fridge that his mom bought us when we moved into the farm house. And it hasn't...

Thanks, FEM! I hope my boss doesn't do anything dumb, either, but we'll see... I plan to text him once he's back in town and see if we can arrange a meeting on Tuesday morning with just he and I to catch up on a bunch of stuff. Hopefully not in the office, either, but we'll see what he says...

Wow, @Britesea that's pretty crappy! I doubt he'll do that, because I can take down a LOT of information with me if he sends me out like that. I have access to quite a lot of information within the business that no one else really has access to, so if he chooses to send me out, it would go with...

Ew, @wyoDreamer that sucks! Not cool at all. SO on top of discovering that they're hiring at just under $1 more than I currently make, I did some digging this weekend. I finally ordered the racks that hold the hanging files that fit into the file cabinet. I finally had enough spare change in my...

Geez, @Britesea that's really late!! We had a very long cool spring, too, so I feel surprised that I should be planting stuff now, but I'm often later than I'd like to be. Yes, Baker Creek has notices all over their website that they're behind and they are under staffed due to the pandemic...

Oh man, @Britesea that is ROUGH. I have a friend that is an only child and her mother is a bit the same way, and she was telling me how challenging it is. Thankfully since the BF is one of three, that divides things up a little bit... not a lot because they've been heavily conditioned with the...

Yeahhh, so I'm really torn about how much time to spend on the veggie farm working for SR. And the latest monkey wrench is that the BF's mom threw a hissy fit because she's feeling very empty nest and rejected at the moment, which I'm sure the pandemic has only made worse. The BF's brother, M...

Sleep habits are kind of funny! I'm with you, @flowerbug once I'm out, I'm VERY out for the most part. And I agree, breathing exercises have helped me to fall asleep faster, too. I don't like a lot of light in the room, but I also tend to not like to have the curtains closed because there are no...

@Britesea you are right on all accounts! I wash my hair twice a week, and prefer not to wash it any more often than that. I've been trying to figure out if there is some kind of rinse I can use that will help to just rinse off the dirt in between washings, but I haven't figured that out yet...

@Britesea I wish I could maintain mine so easily. What shampoo bar do you use? The new shampoos are doing better, so that is good. I just hope that I can get it strengthened because I can tell I still have a lot of breakage. Now that it's short I've been wearing it in a pony tail, and I don't...

LOL @wyoDreamer I hope that I can let it go naturally gray, too. I think silver hair is beautiful. I've already got gray strands, here and there, so I'm not that worried about it. I think my sister is also ignoring hers. My mom dyed her hair for many years, and I just don't want to get into that...

Ehh, FEM, they don't HAVE to tip. They are technically charged a packing fee of $5, and a delivery fee of $5, so tipping isn't necessary.... BUT, for the people who are miles and miles from the farm, it would be nice. The one lady that did give me a tip is probably 15 miles from the farm, so...

Thanks, FEM! Yes, we do have a plan, it's just getting to the next step and through the unknown of finding a car that is tricky. Still looking, and hoping something will come through quickly. I don't want to be driving SH's truck any longer than I have to! The weekend wasn't bad. It was a...

Thanks, FEM! As of right now he's thinking that he'll get a car, with a smaller payment, and keep that for a year until the finances stabilize and then get what he wants (a pickup). We'll see how that plan works out. Just a bit worried and stressed at the moment.

Thanks FEM! YES it does!! So my old explorer that the BF has been driving is about to die. Like for real this time. He is now manually shifting an automatic transmission. :oops: Better him than me. Since KBB values it at $45 (no lie), it's not worth repairing. It's got 251000 miles on it, it...

@flowerbug yeah, the animals contribute to a lot of the dirt from their hair. And then there's the farm dirt that just makes it way into the house, despite taking shoes off at the door (99% of the time...). So there's always cleaning that needs to be done. We had a WAY busier weekend than I...

@flowerbug too funny! Messiness can be it's own file system sometimes, I hear ya on that. I've been known to mess myself up when I clean something up, then I can't find it, but I know right where it was in the mess! @Britesea there are some things I do manage to keep up with, the dishes are...

The weekend wasn't very exciting, which I guess is good. I drove over 100 miles delivering food on Saturday for the farm. There were more people out since the Governor eased restrictions here, which was annoying as crap! Driving down back roads where the speed limit is 50, doing only 35-40...

I love it, @Britesea That's too funny!! Still haven't managed to clean the house. Rather irritated about that one, and now it's even harder than it was before to find the motivation to clean. It's SO dirty. :sick The basement is covered in cat litter and sawdust from the BF's projects that has...

That feels really good! I hope she enjoys it!
