My party today1

My 16 year old built this electric ukulele and electric guitar (minus the neck and headstock of the guitar, a friend gave him those). I think he’s finally adjusted the string placement and switched out some of the knobs and stuff he wanted to do. I know I’m biased but I’m impressed. And happy he likes to teach himself these things.
Proud mom moment.😭10 -
Heat, water, a stove
Yesterday a tractor-trailer overturned and took out some powerlines and a transformer and we were without electricity most of the day which for us means we are without those things. I hear that the trucker is doing well and electricity was restored last night at about 7 PM
I really need to get a generator2 -
My 13-year-old deciphering my recipes written in cursive

Written in cursive...OMG!!! My mom was a 6th grade teacher for over 30 years and the writing lessons I got at home were constant as her favorite thing to teach was English and Creative writing. I remember all my assignments in school had to have perfect cursive hand writing on it or I had to do it over!!
To this day, I appreciate this skill and cannot for the life of me figure out how the schools can get away with not teaching it as a requirement. You shouldn't sign a legal document in printed form! When my daughter was that age she had a hard time reading my notes to her...your post made me smile and go on a rant at the same time!2 -

I guess it’s fine. They’ll muddle through somehow.
After all, I can’t do the copperplate of my great grandmother or even the perfect Palmer method of my grandmother. I also can’t do what my children do. They have learned skills that were never available to me.
But if it makes you feel better, some elementary schools are again teaching cursive. 😁

I’d like to somehow preserve the ones from my grandmother and great grandmother but I don’t know if lamination is the way to go because it’s probably not archival or acid free or whatever the right words are😂. If anyone has any tips let me know1 -

Last year my best friends sister had one of their grandma's famous recipes imprinted on a hand towel that she later framed. That might get expensive tho and you'll run out of wall space lol3 -
That’s an adorable idea! Maybe I’ll do that with one of the recipes nobody makes anymore.R3d_butt3rfly_ wrote: »TwitchyMagee wrote: »R3d_butt3rfly_ wrote: »TwitchyMagee wrote: »My 13-year-old deciphering my recipes written in cursive
