So...did the weed-eating last Sunday. Wrists hurt for a few days, then then didn't bug me. Woke up Sunday with both hands just numb. No pins and needles like they went to sleep. Just no feeling at all when I first woke up. My wrists have hurt ever since. I think I'll be sleeping with the braces on tonight.

I do believe I'm in between lengths as well, but I'm in between regulars and longs, and none of the stores out here want to carry longs!
-
I tried to find new pants today. Pfffffffffffffft.
-
In case you were wondering: I got distracted by other things.
-
Got up early. Read, exercised, journaled, did dishes, had coffee, etc. Planning to hit the farmer's market this morning, but I plan that almost every Saturday and normally end up getting distracted by other things.

So, I learned today that I am not in a good enough shape to do yard work. After weed-eating around the house and camper, my left arm feels like it's trying to fall asleep and is rather shaky when I try to use it. The boy walked in and went, "Wow, you're that red after just that?" Uh, yeah. That's why I don't normally do the yard work. I really need to get in better shape.

'tis a lovely theory, but I don't think I've ever heard of it working. Hubby & girl are off on a Boy Scouts camping trip (they joined an all-girls troop). Boy is going to mow the lawn today. I have a tea party at church this afternoon, and a dinner tonight, then church in the morning. And I'm tired already! I'm trying this new thing called "eating vegetables". We'll see how that goes.

I saw these at Kohl's: https://www.amazon.com/OXO-Grips-4-Piece-Measuring-Beaker/dp/B008X5HRZU

The asparagus in the store looks pretty. I might have bought 3 bundles. And they'll probably all be gone by...Tuesday.

Need data/opinions about eBook readers...Kindle, etc

I used to work tech support for Cingular. LOTS of people would call in with weird little issues, and I'd ask them when the last time was that they'd turned it off. About 75% of the time, the answer was, "Now how would I do that?" -
I've had one freeze up on me a while back. Turned it off and back on, same issue. I just left it on the charger overnight, and when I went back to it the next morning, it acted like it had never had any issues.

I am a bad, bad person. The loss of what was lost inside the Notre Dame is going to be staggering, and my brain is singing from the Hunchback of Notre Dame. "Paris, the city of lovers, is glowing this evening. True, that's because it's on fire, but still there's l'amour."

It rained last night. Our moat (the drainage ditch in front of our house) looks like we could go kayaking in it. Hopefully the rain will scrub more pollen out of the air than the wind and the changing temps won't cause too many issues.
-
For the kids, cheesy lil smokies & broccoli and cheese. For me, andouille sausage and salad.
-
There's a picture on Facebook from a lady who saved all her Amazon Prime boxes, then left them all outside when her husband came home for April Fools'. I'm thinking she didn't do much ordering, the stash was rather small.
-
Sausage and cabbage. Nomnomnom.

One of our kids used to get car sick. We'd get one of the huge drink cups from a gas station and keep it by her. If she threw up, it was big enough to cover her mouth and nose, so everything went into the cup...which was promptly sealed in a bag with the wet wipes used to clean her face. The bag would be chunked at the next available trash can. Not the same as a barf bag, but might be useful to somebody.

They make cases with a strap around the back so you don't have to actually HOLD the thing with your hand, just put it through the loop. Would one of those help? -

I've permanently deleted a few that were just plain trash. -
We had another cold front come through last night. The high today is now 57F (it was 80F yesterday).
-
Reasons why I life in Texas: I'm wearing my string shoes (basically, a sole that's held onto my feet by strings) again today. I want to get out into the camper tonight and make sure that everything is still good after some of the freezes that have come through.
-
Oh, and I made the mistake of making my to-do list for the next 2 days at work last night. If you don't hear from me for a week, there's a reason!
-
That seemed to be rather shortlived, luckily. Kiddo was good to go by 2pm, hubby's...well, he still hasn't fully recovered from the respiratory crud from a few weeks ago. Need to start forcing vitamin C and such on him.
-
It's above freezing, and everybody down here is still whining about it being cold. The general consensus is that there's a reason we don't live further north.

I wonder at what temperature that really goes into effect. Probably depends on insulation, your individual heating system, and 53 bajillion other things.
