I was told I need hep B vaccine. Tell me if you are having any "major" side effects. Thanks.

Sugar cookies are a very specific chemistry because we need them not spread otherwise the cookie loses its shape, and the heart cookie cutter will end up looking like an anatomical heart, haha.

So no--I don't change up any of my ingredients now that I have messed around until I created my fool-proof no-spread recipe!

QOTD- I need to schedule my exercise, and start logging my food again.

It was a beautiful weekend, I spent 4 hours working in the yard on Saturday and could barely move on Sunday. I got my greenhouse assembled, some of the remaining leaves raked and mulched with the assistance of my roommate. I also mowed the lawn with my new push mower. I also transferred the starts to the greenhouse. It was 67 degrees on the weekend so finally spring, but it's rained ever since.

Yesterday I was having nothing but trouble with the software for work. I would move my mouse and have no idea where it would go, I couldn't grab anything and when I typed it took forever for it to show up. Multiple restarts and purges of my profile and still no luck, then I lost access to one of the network drives where I store my work, so was unable to access my work to send it for review. Today I got our tech support to restore my drive, but then our drawing system is down until 12PM, so I'm thinking about going to the store.

I am bad about getting away from my computer during the day. It was easier when I worked in an office, I would walk around the building and up and down the stairs. I would try to do that every hour, but working from home it's only when I get coffee and make my lunch.

Have a great day everyone!

I agree--the work from home lifestyle is weirdly harder to get away from that the office! I would have thought it would be the other way around, but I am always up and talking to people in the office, but at home with no distractions, I will sit in the same spot from 6am - 6pm without ever moving.

That was me today but in the office-lol. No joke, I spent at least 7 full hours rebuilding some excel workbooks we use.
