Out Darn Stuff!

The junk truck made it's annual pick-up of household hazardous waste, e-cycling and donations. I wish I could get hubs to budge on some of the e-cycling. We have at least three Rubbermaid totes of cables, dongles and doo-dads taking up space. I have my own stash of cables for e-cycling hubs doesn't know about :-D

It's also unlikely we'll be going camping ever again, and again, can't get him to budge on air mattresses, sleeping bags and a tent. People tend to hold onto things because they are unsure of the value of. I can see the lack of value quite clearly, LOL!

Godzilla Minus One

If you like your Godzilla movies campy and silly, this is not your Godzilla movie! I was disappointed by how little screen time everyone's favourite stomping sea creature got in Godzilla Minus One and it took a while to mentally switch gears that this was a rather serious movie about an unsuccessful kamikaze pilot overcoming shame and building a new life in post-WW2 Japan. The effects were amazing, but it just lacked the creature feature vibe some of us love so much!

Oooof!

11 years ago in June, where I live was rocked by catastrophic flooding. This June we had a catastrophic feeder main break which has turned into 9 days of water restrictions such as less flushing, less showers, less laundry...less anything water related. I had my first shower since Sunday this afternoon and it was Navy-style--get wet, turn off the tap, lather up and rinse. I'm no stranger to taking a bucket into the shower with me during the summer to throw on the grass, but now I'm saving the bucket for other things. Fingers crossed this can get fixed soon. The upside has been being able to WFH all week. Someone must have done the math on all the flushing :-D
