Whoa Kiki that's beyond a large amount, are you sure that's right?

I really need to find out how much internet one show is on Netflix vs me sitting online here.
I might fall asleep with Netflix playing then wake up and restart a show when it turns off to have the sound while I am sleeping.
AND I pretty much leave it playing all day while I am doing stuff when I am not really watching it.
I guess I should stop using that service so much so I don't have to limit my time here!

View attachment 1173857 Every second grader needs a broad sword—NOT! I made DS wait until he was 14 and then had the edge taken off.

If you leave it sharp, they learn REAL quick what not to do. You teach them first aid. Of course, they cut stuff you don't want cut too. And then lie about it. Fun times.

My buddies would have drunken sword fights on the front lawn. I wasn't that, um, drunk. Fond memories.

I am doing the same.
Any special request?

@uglyduckling - Kiki is going to send you something close to her heart. A crate of TP. She is too scared that you will run out. TP is one of those essentials.

Kiki - you'd look fabulous as a wench! And you have a sewing machine! Get to it!

Are you going over Thanksgiving? I'll be there! Just wander through the Faire shouting "Nutball!" and you'll find me! Hint: Check the Taverns and Odeon! We love Fakespeare! Sound and Fury! Um, not safe for Mini.

No live animals. Can a chicken be a service pet? I wonder if they would let me in with dead chickens? Oh, they may be biased! I need a lawyer to see if I have a case. Why dead chickens and not live chickens? That is discrimination against the living!

I wonder if they are pro-zombie?

Just imagine, Monty Pythonesque dead cart full of rubber chickens! It'll be like Monty Python meets the Muppets! I can dress like Gonzo! Crazy Lady can go as Camilla! Brilliant! Just brilliant!

Sounds like you need to find some unlimited Internet service lol

Well, my friends... somehow we came through that storm with no damage. The chickens were fine, the house is fine, limbs down all over, but we didn't lose a tree. And my husband, who took the dogs out in the middle of the night, said was watching the wind twisting the trees... not blowing, but twisting. Oh joy. so yea, we're still waiting for power. Until this morning, my town was still at 100% w/out.

You know the drill, Keep the fridge closed as much as possible and same with freezers. Any forecast on when it will be back?

ETA: Please tell me you have a gas stove and some form of heat source that doesn't require electricity

TP would be useful for the schools in Loiza definitely! a list is coming soon

 

[theuglyduckling]

-update- schools we planned to give donations to in aibonito were closed down BUT

 

[theuglyduckling]

The director told us there were schools in the poor town of Loiza that could use the help!

yep, we know the drill... But, yes we have a gas stove (electric oven) and our heat is electric. We've never used it. Fortunately, we have two pellet stoves we run all winter, but they need electric to work. We do have a generator, which we've plugged in the fridge to for several hours last night. We can do the same with the pellet stoves tonight. Its supposed to drop down to 33. That is, if we don't get power back. As to when it does... We don't know. On our outage map, I don't know where we fall either... our mailing address is in one town (which we own about a quarter acre of) and our house is in another town. The first town is at 90% without power, and the second is at 20% without. Either way, no power at the house the last time I called.
