It's raining!!!

#WooHoo

Love it when someone plows in here and starts shouting immediately.
Easy block.

The first year I was still harvesting tomatoes in November was 2011.
Over the past few years I've come to the conclusion that if I want to grow tomatoes without the plants getting fried I need to plant them in August when the sun has changed position. Next year I'll do that.
Everything is changing.

"Six migrant workers were struck Sunday afternoon by an SUV in a Walmart parking lot in North Carolina from what police are calling "an intentional assault with a vehicle."

Who the hell does this shitbird think is picking his tobacco?

Just went to leave a review on an Etsy purchase and realized that it's not August 1st yet.

I always know that I'm dreaming when throwing a punch my arms feel like they're trying to push taffy.
So slow.

The door was wide open. I reached for the lamp and turned it on again.
My specific sleep paralysis demon shuffled out of the closet. The light wasn't on.
I sat up. It kept coming.
I felt that weight in my arms, realized I was dreaming, yanked myself up and turned on the lamp.
It stayed on and I stayed awake.
I do not recommend.
#SleepParalysis

Now I'm thinking about my first experience with sleep paralysis.
I was staying with my cousin and her family. Went to sleep. Woke up to find my goddaughter in my door. I said Can't you sleep? Do you want me to read you a story?
She said yes and ran to my bed, jumped on, and disappeared.
I felt around for her.
The closet door opened.
I turned on the lamp. Turned to the closet. The lamp was off.

Younger son has access to the photos uploaded to Amazon automatically and just came to me with his Fire tablet showing me this while laughing hysterically. I took the tablet and went to delete it and he yelled NO! and kept laughing.
I'm so glad I made this today.

Also my younger son saw an old pic of Nic Cage and thought it was Danny Kaye and my friends were like- "Danny Kaye?"
"Yes, he's obsessed with Danny Kaye. Is there a problem?"
"Noooo, not at all."

Younger son- Wizard of Oz fiend, #RankinBass fiend, watching his DVD of The Daydreamer and reciting the end credits to me as I wrap up the house for bedtime- "Margaret Hamilton."
Me- "Margaret Hamilton was The Wicked Witch of The West."
Younger son- "Wicked- wait what???!!!"
I love doing this shit.

Now for serious shit.
My MIL calls every Sunday night. For years now.
Her health is failing rapidly and the doctors are just shrugging.
So every Sunday night I put the phone in 16s room. 16 gets a few moments. My MIL has to hang up.
16 said to me tonight, "I'm sorry you're not getting a chance to talk."
I said, "Oh honey, it's far more important that you do."
And that's the lesson for this evening.

This is still one of my greatest purchases in my entire life just for simple joy.
Every time I pick it up I smile.
It was two dollars.
#Pickle

So Noises Off.
Rented the VHS of the film version when it came out. My roommate ran downstairs and screamed at me because I was laughing so hard.
Cut to 2 years ago when I told 16 he had to watch Noises Off. He made a face.
Got out my DVD! and we watched.
It's in his top 5 favorite films.
I never saw my kid laughing so hard before then until tonight.

#Sardines

I keeled sideways on my bed laughing and 16 bent in half in his chair.
The laughing became silence due to lack of air.
We are going to have to watch again due to falling to pieces.

Episode 4 of Season 2 of #GoodOmens is Noises Off funny and that's all I'm going to say.

#NCSkies

My absolute need to make sure that I am clear when speaking therefore providing details and my husband's absolute lack of patience for what he considers superfluous is never going to resolve.
#AutisticHousehold

The nest is calm again.
The interlopers have given up for now.
I told the girls I had five dollars on them, so I guess I need to go hand myself a check.
