Waiting to pick up the papou, having a mental bet if his social club is off and they forgot to tell me.
Edit: seeing a few of the usual suspects. Looks like it's on and he's still in there being social. :D
Got the lenses in my glasses replaced. They made really unpleasant dashes above and below strong light sources like headlights. It got to the point I almost didn't want to wear them when driving at night.
Turns out the transition coating is quite heat sensitive. I did some driving back in November when it happened and it must have gotten really hot in the car when it was parked because it was alright when driving. Well, I'll just keep these glasses on me when not in the car
Stew on. House smells much warmer. Now we wait.
I just put my oodie on I think I’m going to be in it all day except for meal time and cooking.
Argh just the thought of preparing food is making me cold.
I really need to get one of those. All rugged up and have uggs and heater on and I’m still freezing
Think I'll need to leave the heating on overnight.. cold is just a bit much at the moment.
I don't remember it being this cold last year.
My neighbour's backyard looks frozen solid
Anyone ever do that whole sourdough thing back in lockdown? I love sourdough, but paying 6 to 8 bucks for it at bakers delight isnt cheap. Was it worth it and do you recommend it? or was it a fad for a reason?
I did a sourdough class a month before covid hit. I still make 2-3 loaves a week just for us. It's a little bit of goodness I can do for my family and budget. It doesn't keep well, only good as toast the days after but we like it that way. I avoid the social media sites about it, they get a bit militant and I'm not in it for aesthetics. It's not rocket science or a beauty contest, it's just bread. Very nice bread.
This local RE agency calls me once every 3 or so months about "amazing results in the area" and asking if I want to sell. I say I'm not interested, thank you, and then instead of getting the message to end the call, she keeps asking questions. I just said I have another call coming in and hung up. Go away.
It's too cold to do anything productive so I've resorted to playing this fantastic MMO: https://onemillioncheckboxes.com/
it's too late for me
Wheres the best HSP in the city? Kebabs at Lonsdale was ok but wouldnt rave about it.
Kebabs in the city leave a lot to be desired honestly. I have no decent recommendations
