Nothing in Particular Thread

[#1]

It seems like there should be a single thread where team members could just gather and catch up with eachother about nothing in particular.  It's nice to have other threads to discuss a particular topic, but would also be nice to have a thread where you could go to see who's around at that moment.

You know, like a never-ending, continuously running thread.

Thoughts?

@collecteddust Yeah she did. lol She has a problem with technology but she did manage to contact me.   It was kind of funny.

@Darcy777 

 Lynn's shop is called.   LynnsLittleShop in case you want to convo her.

[collecteddust]

So glad to hear that you got together . 👍

@Artbesico 

Yes, my hair is longish, which is why it clogs the vacuum cleaner.  Good grief!

[Artbesico]

@pigeonplumtree Hope you managed to get the vacuum cleaner sorted =]

[pigeonplumtree]

why is long hair so much more visible than shorter hair?  Why is long hair so cursed?

[Darcy777]

I lived at a place that had one of those robot vacuums.   The hassle of cleaning it every day,  and the long hair that got tangled in it, wasn't worth it.  It was much easier just to vacuum regularly.

Do you ever have weird dream about your friends and then when you next see them or someone else mentions them just feel "Eeeeeek!" ?

[Darcy777]

How weird.  I've never had that happen. 

[q5ypbmbd]

Weird like the dream version of them acting totally out of character or if the thought of them makes you angry and you have to think back as to why and then realise it was a dream thing and they're not actually to blame

[Darcy777]

That is super freaky.  I never dream of anyone current but sometimes people I went to school with. 

[Darcy777]

My hopes for today, in order.

1.  Take some pictures of some Halloween themed candy bar wrappers.

2.  Make low carb mushroom cream sauce to add to my leftover chicken, for my first meal. 

3.  Work on the milk carton template, as the one I have just isn't quite right.

4.  Season some leftover pork with taco seasoning, for dinner. 

5.  Make a low carb mug bread for a meal tomorrow.

6.  Take a shower but I already can tell that won't happen.

When I was 15,  a girl in my grade had a charm bracelet that had at least 30 charm on it.  She was an only child and ... um... spoiled, not that that is relevant.  I had never seen one and I loved how chaotic it was with all those charms.  I asked her about it and she said she got the bracelet and one charm for her first day of kindergarten and then got a charm for any event, like one for Easter, Valentines, maybe more than one for birthday and Christmas.   I fell in love with it and envied her, that she had the parents she had.   

I'm watching a movie and there's a charm bracelet involved.  What must it be like to have people in your life like that?  It won't be the same but if I ever am able to actually earn on income,  I want to save up for a bunch of cheap charms and a bracelet.  I'm picky so I'll probably have to buy charms in bulk and sell the one's I don't like.   

I'd like to sell do it yourself charm bracelet kits but again, I need that elusive income thing. 

I'd like to do bind your own book kits as well.

[collecteddust]

The book binding kits would be great. I would like to try that. Have you bound books before and is it difficult?

[Darcy777]

I don't think it's difficult but there are a lot of ways to bind a book and some are more intricate than others.   I'd probably offer a few different styles so one can take the easy route,  see if they like it and then they can progress from there.

nuked 2 more spammers just now. obviously they can't read our blurb. geesh. again, thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes. my most recent seller's item contained a surprise birthday gift that was so appropriate. a tiny bottle of seashells in miniature. she couldn't possibly have known about my mermaid! my question is how did she get seashells in wisconsin? anyway, it was kind. i bought silver metallic paint and some small brushes from her. haven't used yet. 

[Darcy777]

... I guess I should go read the blurb.   (she said embarrassed)   I presume they are trying to promo their shop/items. 

[vlmkpyae]

darcy, the last 3 spammers only post in promo places, like a game. :( i had to delete one who actually posted a spam thread on here, the other 2 i prenuked, as beverly wants.

[MilaSmilasDogClothes]

@vlmkpyae You can find the spiral shells, snail shells and zebra muscle shells all day long on the beach of lake michigan.  They can be quite small.

[Darcy777]

@vslmkpyae is it okay that my brain hurts when I try and pronounce your name?

[pigeonplumtree]

@Darcy777 

My brain hurts when I hear the word trajectory.  I don't know why.... but I hate the sound of that word!

It ought to be banned from the english language.

[Darcy777]

@pigeonplumtree  That is interesting.  Sound does affect us.   I would have never guessed that word would do that but I know people also hate the K sound and detect the word mock and use faux instead.  This too puzzles me.    I find that when the recipe is the same but it's called Mock Danish as apposed to Faux Danish, the faux will get better reviews.  Humans are a strange breed. (myself included)

[vlmkpyae]

blame etsy. it's my etsborg name. my name is sillhouette. etsy generated that pseudo russian sounding jumble for me for the fora. i could only try to guess how to sound it out. vlimp-kuh-pay? hellifino, to be honest. it is mean of etsy to make we who are shopless be real nameless as well. 

[Darcy777]

Finally made the microwave low carb bread replacement.  I've been wanting to for months.   I don't know why separating eggs is so annoying.  It's not hard, I just detest having to do that extra step.

So, my first meal should be a bacon and egg breakfast sandwich, if the bread turns out.   I altered the recipe as I don't like parmesan cheese but I also am not a fan of pork rinds and that's what I substituted it with.  

Hopefully I'll work on the milk carton design today.   I did make notes yesterday so I did start, at least. 

I'm having to take caffeine pills to skip needing a nap.   It's very disconcerting watching oneself get worse and worse, and wondering what life will be like a year from now.   I wish I could afford an at home (portable)  hyperbaric oxygen chamber.  I think the treatments would help me some.
