    Videos of people repairing holes in things with fancy stitches and stuff. How the heck do they figure these things out? I'm luckily if when mending stuff I don't have threads that got knitted and stuck. What is this magic and wizardry

    This is true for me. It has always been easier for me to pull myself down than to acknowledge my good points. I'm still a work in progress in my 60's.

    A good diner breakfast that apparently can’t be done where I live: crispy corned beef hash, rye toast that’s still hot with plenty of butter, eggs over easy and the whites completely cooked, home fries with a lot of onions, a clear yellow plastic tumbler with orange juice, and an attentive server that doesn’t tell me their name

    eta: and cream or milk for my coffee that’s poured from a little metal pitcher instead of having to open 15 tiny plastic cups

    pps: A bagel that I don’t have to cream cheese myself

    AND: I miss walking into a place that understands what regular or light and sweet means. I’m paying for the damn coffee why do I have to dress it myself and then tip on top of that? These *kitten* places need to pay their employees a living wage and stop depending on the customer to do it

    We're getting 6-10" of snow between right now and early morning. I wonder what my drive home from the airport will be like tomorrow night?

    Hope you got home safely

    We got quite a dumping of snow last night. Thank goodness we don't have to be anywhere today since it's heavy, wet snow.

    What’s it mean when the quirky kid in Dollar General compliments your outfit?

    2 hours of shovelling. Everything hurts but we got dug out and the neighbour dug out too since she's all alone and has to get her husband at the airport today.

    I tried to make a to-do list to organize my brain for work and it took me like 20 minutes because I kept getting distracted. There’s something ironic in that…

    The 20 minutes I spend on my to do lists are the most productive

    How liver and onions was a really common supper when I was a kid. I can still remember that texture

    I'm one of the few people who like the stuff. My Grandmother would bread it with cracker crumbs (Old Fashioned Panko Crumb sub. for an Old Depression Era Lady) Last time I ate it, I cried. Stupid Memories.

    I am not watching any more grainy videos of Bigfoot or the ghost in your kids baby monitor.

    There are a whole bunch of things like that and I wonder if I would like them as an adult. Liver and onions, liverwurst, licorice candy… I’m drawing a blank but I know there are others

    I don't think I've ever had real liver but I've had chopped (honestly, no idea if it's the same thing only....chopped :))

    I remember saying I don't like brussel sprouts and beets when I was young but don't remember actually having tried them. I finally tried both. Brussel sprouts from the Whole Foods hot bar pre-covid and I actually like them. Beets from the Gelson's salad bar and...not so much. Beets are icky. Boo on beets!

    I thought my stove was fixed but it’s not. $30 worth of groceries, a week’s worth of healthy meals planned, and I can’t cook any of it. This is the second time this has happened to me in three weeks.

    And I found this out at the end of a really crap day at work. I give up for tonight. Gonna go cry while listening to audiobooks now.

    When I go to an hour long committee meeting I wind up feeling *kitten* and weird the whole rest of the day. What is wrong with me?

    Hooray finally getting my one spin at skating consistent. One of the beginner skaters was watching me so I explained my process of breaking things down to very basic steps, mastering them then piecing it all together. Same advice I give people here. Everything's easier when you learn things step by step

    Also why are there fabric samples under my oven???

    I don’t know but I’m tired of my eyes feeling like they’re floating in a punch bowl.

    This gives men way too much credit. We cannot do more than 1 thing at a time this implies 6!
