    Not just today but whenever it happens....my coworker buys lunch for my boss but the rest of us aren't included (2 or 3 depending on who's here at the time). We're not even a consideration.

    In fact, once my boss was surprised the coworker hadn't brought us food back too.

    ‘Round here that would be an ethics violation. 🤷🏼‍♂️

    That the tiniest handful ( 40gms) of cashews, almonds and walnuts has 253 calories :|

    On the other hand, when I don’t want to eat anything else, but I’m 500 calories below goal? Nuts are the best!

    Ya. It probably irks some people that not eating enough is an actual problem sometimes. 🤓
    But here I am. Rocking it.

    Thanks for the irk free day, Ms. @reeniehj! This was saved for tomorrow which is now today.

    Paper wasps...

    Yellow jackets lit me up a couple days ago. Mostly my back and obliques. No biggie. I'll take them any day over paper wasps.

    Yesterday afternoon was paper wasps while I was in the pool. They were building a nest under the diving board between the spring leaves and I didn't know. I was under the board holding onto the end of it and springing it a little. They lit me up. Their stings are like stepping on hot embers. (I do that a lot grilling barefoot)

    Left arm is swollen, hurts from the shoulder to the wrist, and is starting to itch like an MF'er.

    ☹️ Feel better soon

    Wow, (any kind)wasps and yellow jackets are the worst. :( I hope you feel better soon! Benadryl or ice or anything to hurry away the hurt/itch?

    I'm not sure why I have this inborn fear of stinging insects, except bumblebees(which is silly because I know they have stingers as well but they're so fuzzy and cute). :) Maybe it's because I used to see my mom doing the dodge dance when she'd hang out the laundry. Other day I was trying to refill the hummingbird feeder and had to wait until the hornets took a break from it. :/

    I pity the fool!

    These dang hiccups!
    I get them multiple times a day, thankfully they only last a minute or so but crud, I get tired of getting them.

    My pig backpack has two left ears. I thought one was a little crooked but upon further thought, it’s the wrong ear entirely. I’ll just let it irk me forever though because I’m not returning it. It’s a very small irk.

    He's a little different that's all. You can love him anyway
