  • Still Stuck

    I am still stuck at the hotel room today. At first it was exciting, but now I just want my own food and stuff returned. I am constantly afraid if things in the room get lost or broken I will be charged a mint to replace them. What insurance will and will not “pay” for can turn sketchy. It is not like being on a voluntary vacation at all! I think an electrician who used to work at that apartment building was breaking things on purpose to make extra work for himself for profit. Things break with suspicious “frequency” in that building that seems to be lining repair workers pockets all too well. I am now in favor of moving to a new area!

  • The Room

    One of the up-sides to the apartment building being on fire yesterday was renter’s insurance my family had on my place got me a nice hotel. I am staying there many days as the power is off in my old unit. It is so fancy the place has dishes, and a stove. I did not even know the Marriott Residence Inn was this nice. I will recommend it in the future, and will give it a good Foursquare and Yelp rating. Yet not having to flee in terror from a fire would have been better.

  • Uber Return

    Dear Uber drivers please return to work. Downtown went from empty to a Circus in one weekend. I did not have the gas to drive everyone with the gas shortages in my area. It was a clown convention downtown. 🤡

  • Seven Bins

    The Internet hates these people today. Why do you need seven bins of gas for one day of down pipe lines? Seven is just what you can see in the photo. It does all seem like something out of a mean girls movie.

  • Gas Grab

    Today in Virginia I had to battle to buy gas! The state of emergency is not a joke. There were long lines, gas fights, and no-gas notes on most of the pumps. I switched off the AC, and changed plans to stay at home.

  • 2021 Mother’s Day

    Gifts for Mother’s Day 2021… Oh so much fruit and cream breakfast in bed! Also cherry blossoms as body spray. Below is a throwback photo of my daughter a few years back holding a bear.

  • Mall Rat

    Many things are still closed due to the pandemic. This has brought out my inner mall rat, and breathed it back into life. Still I did manage to get in touch with friends, so things were fun.
