We used to go to Michigan State for beekeeping conventions. Mr. Huang is still there. I met him a few times. I’ve been watching for honeybees. I have a huge bumblebee that had legs full of pollen from one of the planters. Gotta have honeybees. We’ve been without rain and the white clover is dried up. I’m like.. people we gotta have rain on and off. Everyone, even the news talks about rain not in the forecast as a good thing etc. it’s not, we have to have regular rain. Anyway.

Dinner- chicken schwarma with garlic sauce and cream cheese with baked jalapeño. I ❤️ garlic sauce.

Severe storms. A 3 just went through Wisconsin.

Ben made a very tasty cake and did video with my expensive camera. Cute bird. My phone is not connecting to WiFi- if it does it’s not staying connected. I’ve done all the things.

Sooo cute.

Seanny sent me photos. I know he’s excited. Abby likes fishing to. He also said Abby has a picture of him holding his king.

I put the pork loin in before I did my day of kid drop off and Instacart- long and slow convection and Ben made homemade protein pasta Mac n cheese. Long painful day. 7 orders. A promotion, but it was not a great one. I got home. Changed, took my brace off. Put my other stuff on, Ben brought me my plate, so sweet of him. Have me ice water and resting. #themedicalalgorithim

Stuff

Two baby deer. Spots and cuteness. Not a great picture, they ran under the tree.

Something cute for Emily- DG $3

Let’s see if this works. Had a day, only made $59 and change. Drove 120 miles or so. I’m home, I’m really hoping for some pain strain relief- if I wasn’t doing instacart then not such a big deal. Lots of conversation about this could take place. Working on the delivery- just getting by.

@jack my music downloads. Purchased through Apple. Coding issues? Yeah, imagine attaching blow codes to certain downloads. Music attached to #thesexapp design. This song, chosen as a song that is on my list of must haves. My ? - whom is he? He’s definitely going to be one that has my fix. Music, to some, is the top expression a positive sexual and emotional relationship. GM

Tasty

Sean be helpin. Diced up the other onion and for some reason they wanted a red pepper. Brooks chili beans and two cans of chili ready tomatoes. Easy peezy. One pack lower sodium chili powder McCormick.

Gotta have the garbage bags. Sean and I went to Walmart first- paid the mortgage. I did way too much raw digging gimping due to circumstances. I usually lean on the cart. I was paying bills, transferring $. Emmy called- Ozzy the cat was puking this morning, she had to take him to the vet, they gave him fluids etc. They are back home. While I was talking, Sean pushed the cart. Anyway, we got home, unloaded, went to Sam’s. 90 bags for $20 is cheaper. I got cups/lids to make life easier. We wash and reuse- whatever- anything that makes it easier. I bought a 12 quart pot for chili tonight and the next 3 days- not kidding- it was $15.97 with a lid. At Sam’s I got B&S some sushi- $11.53 (told them I love getting them stuff like that when I can) I WILL not eat sushi- not my thing- I watch while you enjoy, just not my thing. The boys are always - try this etc- I’m good, thanks. I did get B&S frozen mahi mahi to try. The big fishing trip with their dad is this weekend, Sean’s bday present- he wants to catch his limit in Salmon- it’s a charter. I’m going to take it easy the rest of the day. Gas is $4.29 now in the hood. $4.39 at speedway- groceries? Over 200 at Walmart- didn’t get that much. Oh, I ordered a new ankle brace- with side supports- all the instacart is making my disabled ankle/foot worse. Try this brace- should be here tomorrow $26 something.

A&S do K-12 online. I’d have thought they’d include $ given to them for free breakfast and lunch in the form of funding. K-12 should’ve advocated for us that have kids in public online schools. I’ll put this on my list. A&S are very successful with this program, no bullying, focus, great invested teachers within this public online school. I had kids graduate from public school brick n mortar style… if I had this k-12 option as it is right now, they could’ve been home. Emily may have been even more successful. She was highly successful but the kid environment with drugs in bathrooms etc was tough for her to be around. Immature kids and highly focused on sports is often a focus of brick n mortar schools. So, overall, some food allowances and some other things would’ve been beneficial for all kids. Homeschooled as well. I’m not a Whitmer fan. (This is gisted)

I’m having WiFi issues- t-mobile to my home WiFi. Keeps getting kicked off. I restarted the modem. Turned my phone off-rebooted- then did the switch off to airplane mode- forget the network etc. started this morning.

GM. I rescheduled my ortho wrist appointment due to work stuff. Next available was 8/18. Oh well, stuff comes up. Had them fax a new order for X-rays to the X-ray diagnostic center. Gas is $4.39 a gallon at speedway. Good grief. The hood gas station is $3.95. Doing the day.

Summer time beauty.

Ben made zucchini pistachio chocolate chip bread. It’s sooo good.
