My Crockpot died! 😫 Dinner didn't cook! 😫 Drat....

Made some killer blueberry muffins today. Going to use the same recipe, but make em "apple pie" muffins rather than blueberry, tomorrow. #Food #Baking

@00pi Oohh...this....this could be it. Wow. Thank you! Lol

@MakerWerks Yeah, I'm squeezing with the clips AND just fingers, trying to make sure they are sealed....and still...they puff back up. I dont get where I'm going wrong! lol

Is there a trick to those vacuum storage bags? The ones for blankets/pillows....I have no luck with them STAYING deflated. After a few days, they ALWAYS reinflate. I've tried different brands and sizes, so it has to be user error at this point, right?

@GrandmaJ Cozy mysteries are my favorite! I have read so many. I like the paranormal cozy mysteries too! 😊

My 4Runner (Mimi) hit 40k miles this morning! Not bad for a 5 year old car.

I also got Bible Thumped in the Walmart parking lot.

Gotta take the good with the bad, I suppose. Lol #Monday

@Cmnslivn He's crazy, man! lol We had to bring him in and he's just dialed up to a 10 now, wanting that rat. 😂

Tormund (Carin Terrier) found a rat in the yard, bit it then chased it up one of the bird feeder poles. Had the thing cornered.

He's definitely doing what he was bred for! His kill list is 2 birds, 1 mole, 1 baby bunny and like 8 snakes. I'm adding the rat, cause I'm pretty sure it's not gonna survive the night. We have Great Horned Owls on our property. That's an easy meal for those guys! #CosoDogs

It's sounding like we might finally get some rain this week! *happy dance* #PNW

Daughter is mad, cause I cannot give her money to go to the fair. I told her it also wasn't fair to her brother, if I gave her money to go with a friend, but he didn't get to go at all, cause we cannot afford for all 4 of us to go.

I spent $500 on groceries, $100 to fill my gas tank AND I just spent $85 on new Nikes for her for gym. The money isn't infinite! It DOES run out. *sigh*

My poor Mogwai vomited in her kennel overnight at some point and had to lay in it all night, then she's continued with the vomiting this morning. She's refusing food, only drinking water. :( Pets getting old sucks, man. #CoSoDogs (She has health issues, I don't need advice, thank you)

@GaryPoole Theres a company called Artful Ashes, I believe, that can incorporate them into glass. Not quite a snow globe, but really beautiful. My Moms friend did that, with some of my Moms ashes.

I know I am whining about this quite frequently, and I apologize, but......

I WANT RAIN! I'm drying up ova here! Wilting! I'm on my way to being a shriveled up, husk of a being! These 80° days need to fuck all the way off! #PNW

@MrGoat I can't get outta Costco for less than $500. Ever. lol

*grumbles* Over $500 on groceries.... *grumbles* From freakin Walmart! *grumbles* This world has gotten too expensive! 😣

My Spidey sense is tingling this afternoon and I don't like it. It feels....anticipatory. Impending. Not doom, per-se....But that somethings coming. Somethings gonna happen.

@KazzyH I DID get it, BEFORE Elon went all whackadoodle....I was on the wait list for over a year. lol If the ISP that services my home would upgrade their stuff, I'd switch back. But DSL speeds in 2023 is just NOT acceptable. Homeschooling during the pandemic was TOUGH with 3 kids and shitternet.

I really hate that Starlink is "owned" by Elon. It's such an amazing, much needed service, for SO many people (myself included). I HATE supporting that POS by having Starlink. Internet is a needed utility these days, and I just don't have another decent option. :( I feel icky. Need a bath in Purell.....

@WordsmithFL Mine went down for about 15 mins, came back up for a few, then back down for another 15-20 mins. Seems to be okay now though....
