What's on your Thursday Menu?

(I've reached out to OH about my picture issue and I am waiting to hear. I found that I could upload a few random things, but 99% still won't work).

Good Morning Everyone, Happy Lil Friday! I had the laziest day ever yesterday. I stayed in my PJs, and didn't really knock anything significant off my to-do list. I really need to get back to a real schedule some time soon because it's getting harder and harder to self motivate, and that is just not like me. I have lots of things I could be doing to prep for my next round of classes but I just wasn't feeling it.

Anyway, today I have my final interview with my top choice job and I am excited for it! It's not until this afternoon, so I have lots of time to try to tame my curly hair into something professional looking and to practice my presentation :)

QOTD: Do you do your own taxes or have someone file for you? I've almost always done my own except for the crazy year that I lost everything in a flood and bought my first home. I'm doing my own this year again, but I am a little nervous about it for the business I have tried to keep decent track of my receipts but I really have no idea what I am doing!

Accountability: Did I even stand up yesterday? Not sure. Also, I had after dinner hard seltzers which led to a sleeve of Ritz Crackers that I didn't even want.

• protein coffee
• egg bites
• salad with beef & blue cheese
• ??

Good mornin y'all! QJB, crossing everything for you! You'll knock 'em dead!

My mom has an appointment today and I think that's all that is set in stone. We might go to the thrift store but I'm betting that'll wait until tomorrow.

I've been thinking about doing videos of me chainmailling...leaning toward time lapse ones. Just for fun. I even got an inexpensive web cam that I can point in any directions or place wherever I want. So I won't make an actual appearance. I also hate my voice time lapse will zero that out. We'll see. I could post em on Instagram or my chainmaille page on FB.

I had zero motivation yesterday. I didn't chainmaille or much of anything else for that matter. We did go to Walmart and Sam's then my mom had her test. After I get this posted I might lay down for a bit.

QOTD: I help my mom do hers.

B: eggs, cheese 2 crackers and coffee

L: salad

D: thinking about the piece of salmon I have in the freezer

Opal as a teenager...all attitude then and still to this day.

The time lapse sounds cool

Good morning gang. It's still dark out and the temperature is 53. Three days ago it was 9 degrees. Three days from now it will be 10 degrees. Crazy.

Thank God the New Hampshire primaries are over. The biggest part of New Hamshire's population is along the Massachusetts border. And they don't have much in the way of their own news stations, so all of their political ads end up on the Boston news. And we are really sick of them. There will be a lull for a while, then a huge ramp-up for NH congressional races. 9 of 10 TV ads will be for NH, not MA. Drives me nuts.

QOTD: Ive always done my own. I've never cared to pay someone to do something I can figure out on my own.

I know I asked this a while back -- maybe 2 or 3 years ago? But I'm looking for mattress recommendations. We tried a memory foam mattress topper a few months back, and it seemed nice, but ended in agony. The mattress we have is memory foam, and it was highly rated. But now I'm wondering if part of my sleeping issues are due to the memory foam. I can stay in bed for about 3 hours, max, before the pain gets me up. It could be from the knee surgeries. But I'd like to see if a more traditional innerspring mattress would help. So if anyone has suggestions, I'd be happy to hear it.

While I personally don't have one I know 4 people who have the sleep number mattress and they love it. I've also heard good things about Temper Pedic and Big Fig. We just have a 20 year old pillow top Sealy mattress that has been good to us so far.

Check out Saatva. They are a more modern sprong mattress with some latex/foam. Online only so st ill cheaper, 100 night trial if I remember correctly. I bought the firm with extra pillow top in 2017 or 18 and still love it. Just measure for the box spring nd mattress with a measuring tape, not eyeballing it on your leg. On the other hand my unintentional highly elevated bed looks amazing and I have a cute step stool to get into it.

You're a stool person? JB needs a stool to get into bed too. And it's not that tall.

The best mattress I had was Temeroedic. Now I have a Sleep Number. I have a stool with a handle next to the bed.

I use a step stool to get to bed too.

I approve of this graphic. 90% of our problems can be addressed with WD-40 or duct tape.
