@sand That sounds like a great day off. I need to remember to take days off like this. Usually, I am running errands or doing homework when I take a day off, or going on a tripโwhich is fun but also a lot of work and planning at times. Hope you get to have more me-time days off in the future. :)
@sand They do! They also sold saimin but stopped a few years ago. We also have a Portuguese sausage, eggs, and rice breakfast thatโs popular. I do think itโs neat how regional items get put on the menu at McDโs. I tripped out the first time I went to a McDโs in Georgia and they had a biscuits and gravy breakfast! (Which I liked). ๐
Tried the #Minecraft Movie Meal a couple days back. You can choose #BigMac or chicken nuggets. The toys are pretty cool. I got the #Grimace egg and my friend got the #fries. The Happy Meal Minecraft toys aimed at kids are not as cool. #McDonalds#AMinecraftMovieMeal
@sand I do wonder about face pains. Could they be sinus related? Body aches are happening to me a lot. Usually whenever I ramp up my exercise too much without rest days, something gives โฆ like knee or hip or some kind of pain. My neck is sore lately since Iโm sleeping weird, I think. Itโs true thinking back, nothing really hurt in my teens or twenties.. and I joined the army guard and was going through lots of physical training back then.
@sand I imagine you can do a lot with it though. I still see folks using canva and making flyers with no margins and too much/too small text for events and things at work.
This message is brought to you by the pain my left knee has been experiencing of late. I hope at worst, I have to do physical therapy. I'm not keen on any kind of surgery.
One of my goals in life is to live in a building with an elevator, or a house! But let's face it, I'll never be able to afford a house in Hawaiสปi. The elevator thing though.. That is probably doable. :blobcatcoffee:
I got an MRI last week. They asked what kind of music I wanted. I said golden era/90s hip hop. I realized my mistake almost immediately since I had to keep myself very still while lying there with headphones on. Hypnotize and Humpty Dance coming through. Not easy to do.
Waking up every so often with ideas. I email them to myself for later. This is how my brain works when I have deadlines and anxiety. My best brainstorms seem to come about when I sleep. ๐ด
@sand@Beachbum I want to believe dems can take some seats in upcoming elections. However, I wonโt be surprised if Trump declares martial law before his term is up. Many of us wanted to believe that America had changed. But many folks are showing us they donโt want it to. Racism, destruction of information and education. Attempts to suppress opposition to authority. Destruction of social programs. It isnโt looking good for we the people.
@sand@Beachbum I know there are protests and dissent right now, but lots of news feels the sameโsame stories covered by multiple outlets. I donโt think protests are getting as much coverage, and theyโre also not as large and organized. So, less news coverage.
@sand I didnโt quite know what to expect this 2nd time, but it is so much worse. Someone told me they unplugged to avoid all news, but I canโt do that. I read the news & listen to podcasts daily. Despite knowing this was going to be bad, I had no idea how bad. I had that same thought yesterdayโI have to stop being surprised. Itโs hard to believe the pettiness, cruelty, ignorance, racism.. until I think about US history, and itโs not. It just feels like old times. #uspol
