Saturday I'm going to count leaving the house as an accomplishment, because it was the first truly cold (by southern standards) day we've had since January or February, and part of me wanted to stay in bed and read and drink hot chocolate ( Read more... )

Bought some jasmine essential oil, the bottle I have now is getting pretty low. I really like that brand Gya Labs; the bottles are a bit smaller than Aromatic Infusions', but the prices are so good that if it didn't have a lot of good reviews I would be skeptical. Probably a matter of scale.

Speaking of oil, I tried the monoi oil that sirena73 sent me ( Read more... )

Saturday I made breakfast for the 'rents and I, and after I showered and got dressed I went to Five Below. I wanted to get an extra of the dot grid notebook I bought a couple months back and decided to use for a weekly planner. It's an odd measurement and has that weird disc binding, and it just seemed like the best way to have extra paper. I ( Read more... )

Saturday I drove home from Alabama, arriving around 2:30. I unpacked right away, because that's the kind of person I am, went through mail, straightened up my bedroom a little. I did feel a little bummed about my vacation being over, so instead of having some cocktails like I usually do on Saturday afternoon I decided to have a delta 8 gummy. I had ( Read more... )

SaturdayMade eggs and toast for the 'rents and I, then did some planner/bullet journal work. Showered, went to the carwash (vacuum and checked the tire pressure since I'm driving to Alabama on Friday), grocery store. Made some corndogs for lunch; I bought a box of frozen corndogs at the grocery store since everyone was so enthusiastic about the ( Read more... )

Phil got discharged on Thursday afternoon and he's been almost nice since coming home, so I think the hospital sent him home with some pain medication ( Read more... )

There's a new cannabis dispensary on Verot School Road that's on my commute. I went in to see if they had any Delta 8 gummies and they did, but they were charging $50 for 15 25mg gummies. I'd already priced them at Binoid (the website I buy my THC-P tincture and vape cartridges from), and they had 20 50mg gummies for $34.99. And I had enough points ( Read more... )

SaturdayWoke up early and took Penny out to pee, then went back to sleep for a couple hours. Made fried eggs and toast for Mom and me. Went to the carwash (vacuum only, it's been a dry week and the lovebugs fucked off when the daytime highs shot back up to the 90s) and the grocery store. Home, did a couple loads of towels and ran the sweeper over ( Read more... )

SaturdayWent to CVS, gas station, carwash (vacuum and $10 wash; the heat has returned but it's not supposed to rain for the next several days), Rouse's. Picked up a lot of meat on sale for the freezer stash: ground turkey, Hilshire Farms smoked sausage, chicken drumsticks ( Read more... )

I got a nail buffer at CVS, the kind that's 4-sided with gradually finer grades on each side. I know, that's not a big deal. But you know, self-care doesn't always have to be, like, "I just booked myself a month's vacation at one of those resorts with the grass huts on stilts in the middle of the ocean!". Sometimes it can just be "I remembered to ( Read more... )
