BYC Café

Just groceries and supplies. No biggie. Because we don't eat processed food, we have to shop for produce about 3 times a week. I don't buy more than we will use in 3 or so days.

BUT (and this is me really going off track project wise :D) I want to get some Mod Podge, craft paint, wood varnish and fabric and make some coasters.

I had these really cute glazed ceramic coasters with pine cones imprinted in them. Over the years with Dobermans and Mogwai, the holder and all but one coaster have been broken. When I was in the waiting room at the hospital I read a little craft project in a Martha Stewart Living magazine on how to make your own custom coasters from cheapo cork coasters or wood crafting discs.

When I went to buy the tightie whities for DH, I meandered through the craft section of WM and lo and behold, there were three different bolts of fabrics with chickens on them!! Not to mention lots of other very pretty fabrics which I could use to make very lightweight, waterproof, colorful coasters.

This has been a little glimpse through my brain on how I get off track with things so easily. It's not like I don't have an entire house waiting for me to finish, market and sell. So I'm going to make coasters.
Making the coasters will give you something to do while he recovers
 
I just shared some of my story, this is probably the first time that I've opened up to people that I don't know personally (face to face).
If you are going to open up to a bunch of faceless people, you definitely picked the right place to do it. I think this is a great bunch of people here in the Cafe. They've all become my friends and have frequently been my sounding boards. No one here is judgmental and everyone is kind, supportive and frequently hilarious so the humor will brighten even your darkest days.
 
Not when I was a kid either. And at that point I hadn't developed into my own "warning" about not smoking around me! Try it now and find out where your cigs end up...
It looks like smoking is quickly being replaced by vaping. Vaping is a better alternative to smoking but still not an ideal thing to do either
 
My father has smoked all of my life, but he has never done it around me unless we are outside. My husband also Vapes, but he does it outside. Never inside our house.

People don't realize that smoking around kids really affects them!
It changes a persons DNA -- damages it and the damage persists over a couple of generations

I have met a lot of great people at BYC!

Some of my best friends I met on Facebook through a pulmonary hypertension group. I actually met one of them in person and we had a mini vacation together... Unfortunately she passed away a year ago. she's the reason why I fight so hard for my health and the reason why I am staying plant-based.
 
I have been that way probably since I've been a teenager. My body just doesn't like mornings and can't function in the mornings.

DH is pretty much the same way he doesn't eat until dinner time. He snacks sometimes at work, but he's always moving. He probably walks 5 miles a day at work. He's always loading trucks and stuff, he has no time for eating.
I am more of a Morning person. 23&me says I should naturally wake up a bit after 7am in the morning. I am usually up between 5 and 6 each morning though and only sleep later if I am sick, which is not very often for me
 
I think I’m just going to make a tuna melt or something. Was going to make an omelet or something but don’t really feel like cooking :lau :oops: plus don’t feel like eggs haha or maybe I will have some leftovers haha
I'm going to have some more hasselback potatoes probably. Right now I am just chugging water and I'm about to have some lemonade.
