I went to Walmart, you have been a busy lot, I took my time, thinking "I have all the time in the world." I saw many weird assemblages of odd homemade gloves and like matching gloves and masks, and people (like me) wearing nothing at all.... It's pointless to OCD about ANY of it unless you have them deliver and they spray bleach all over it for you which wouldn't be good for the produce.

This is not how virus protection works. It was an odd world out there it truly was, I can't even imagine how states harder hit than me do it? I mean there were WOMEN there IN MASKS debating MAKEUP.

Dude, I don't think you gonna "catch a man" with that mask over the perfect shade of lipstick, and maintaining that y 6 feet of distance but SHEESH I was never one for makeup much at all. Some women like to look .pretty and whatnot I save my minimalist makeup for the outside world. I'm the type of chick who doesn't need it but mascara looks fantastic, if I ever bother (usually on a date for the husband's sake.) I think I look like a freaking clown if I doll me up. To be fair, I also suck at it.

It was like a different world man, and I must say in all sorts of interesting ways, the song sad, mad world came to mind.

They are supposed to be segregating the "COVID" hospitals from the other hospital procedures when they can but many places can't do that.

If I were a CONSPIRACY theorist which I sometimes am, the rhetoric about this virus makes me sort of think it is a bid for socialized medicine. At that point, I am packing my bags and moving elsewhere, and I'm not talking states but countries,. Or, joining the Peace corps like permanently, or just coming off my meds all but lithium to see how psycho I get.

Because stimulus checks.,... What business is there to STIMULATE really? When even healthcare is being decimated by fear ,I mean I TOLD my kid to go to the damn doc and he had No problem going and NO problem getting lab work. I was like, "Just do me a favor and rule out like cancer before I drop you from my insurance wouldja?"

I AM IN COMPLETE support of the protesters and I would do it if I had time. LOOK people I get care for others I get the complete fear the media installs.

We could all any one of us drop dead any single minute and I have maintained that mindset whilst working among gunfire and other threats,

Life is what you make it. For an anxiety prone person since birth, I am NOT going to let COVID 19 scare me. Compared to what I HAVE already survived, I will thank my lucky stars and take it,

It's not a desire not live really any more, but if I had not battled most of my anxiety since well, birth and if I had not FOUGHT my way through it using every coping skill out there, I wouldn't have had the life I have had which has been hard at times but also gloriously worth it.

EVERY single thing I got from the grocery store could be contaminated. I have no way to know so I am not SPENDING my stimulus check on gear that WILL NOT PROTECT ME.

China started wearing the masks AFTER the high and the rapid fall. THEY ALREADY HAD HERD IMMUNITY.

Do you know who makes our masks? China that is who, and if you think they are being made in clean rooms where you have to pass through 4 airlock chambers+ to decontaminate you would be INCORRECT.

Bah. Do I get on the mat? Five more minutes to decide+, sigh, Grocery took too long as I was wandering around observing human behavior,

    Use the Inw Raspberry and FlV Boysenberry each @1%
    Fran, just offering another option. I agree about INW Raspberry but suggest PUR Boysenberry (it is weaker so maybe 2-3%) Even PUR Raspberry is a good choice. In the end (I would give it a go with what you have) still order the one Fran suggested (WF)

    Because I prefer the INW to the PUR

    I agree about that... I meant the FLV Boysenberry (not trying to start anything) It was your recipe so I concede (and also agree about ordering the correct flavor for it) If it helps, I am adding that flavor to my wishlist (thank you for mentioning it)

    The FLV Boysenberry is a good one also.

    I just wrapped up my work day. I’m roasting some veggies for me and about to make chicken sandwiches for the boy. I updated my vape spending/inventory spreadsheet as I was about four months behind. I didn’t think I bought much since last year but I was wrong. It adds up. Flavor order here and coil order there, etc. I fed the birds and squirrels and chipmunks. Did the dishes and laundry. And bathed. Pretty productive day. I’m ready to eat and get on the couch. I noticed all these limbs in the yard from the storms that I need to pick up. I just did that but now I gotta do it again. I may go through paperwork as I watch tv later. :eek:
    Please don't take offense, but why isn't your son picking up the tree limbs?

    I would suggest tile for the bathroom.
    Already have it and can’t stand it. My hardwood is just so easy and cleans great. Love hardwood.

    I need to go back on elr to see what recipes it can find with my flavor stash. I’m enjoying that feature.

    He helped me last time and I told him this weekend he can help me again. We tag team the mowing. I actually love outside work. I would rather cut grass and dig around in the dirt than do dishes or bathrooms any day.

    I asked him to go get the garbage can and the mail last night and he got stung by a red wasp right in his palm. The wasp was inside the mailbox on the mail. Poor thing. They hurt!

    I want hardwood throughout. Although cave dirt would be better than carpet.

    I’d rather have hardwood on all of the first floor and carpet upstairs for the bedrooms. We have hardwood in the entryway and kitchen on ground floor. I tiled the bathroom floor and it came out good. Much better than the linoleum that was in there. I think it would be hard to find wood color to match what we have. The builder used a custom stain mix color so I doubt I could match it. So in other words, he probably had some left over from other houses he built and mixed it together to do ours.

    I had it in my bathroom which turned out to be a bad choice.

    That wouldn’t be so bad if he had left you a reserve.

    Even if he had, it’s been so long that it wouldn’t be good now. The painter that did our house was training an apprentice so did custom paint in the study and master bedroom to show him technique. He did a really nice job and it didn’t cost extra. Back then we couldn’t afford any extra.

    You got a lucky break.
