I've mostly been playing Animal Crossing and Greedfall. I'll get on my comp for a little bit but then my mouse starts acting up and I get cross with it.
It was awful. My parents had to feed my horse all week. I hate being stuck at home. I don't mind staying home, but being stuck here 24/7 is awful. I went outside to feed the dogs and walk to the mailbox for mail. And I only had the motivation to play games and watch movies.
I haven't checked to see if soap refills are back in stock. It'd be nice to have an extra one on hand. Laundry detergent got hit hard here at the beginning of this whole mess, but I was able to grab the kind I use a couple of weeks ago. Thankfully, I'm stocked up on cleaning supplies,
All the dogs are safer in the pen. Three of them still like to run towards vehicles that drive into the yard and one likes to wander off when she's bored. I've found that one the road twice.
I don't think I have any summer decorations unless I have some window clings that I've forgotten about.
The Nintendo Online subscription is $20 for a year, which is fairly reasonable. Dang, that stinks, games should clearly state that they require a subscription.
I have a lot of games, two little shelf towers that full of games o.O and Chris always tries to get me to trade in games that he thinks I shouldn't keep, mostly because he doesn't play them. I haven't bought any of the new releases for Destiny 2 because the game just isn't enjoyable anymore with the changes that have been made. And the studio behind the game just appears really greedy when they want players to buy each season pass and buy any special apparel you've earned by completing things in game.
I've never tried mulberries but I help pick them every year. I should probably try them sometime, I'm just overly cautious and picky about food.
Possibly and I think some items get shipped to one location to be packaged together before they get shipped to the final destination.
It would have. I know Chris had asked if we'd be able to live in the limestone house temporarily and my parents said it would take too much work. It needs new shingles and the ceilings repairs in at least three rooms. My grandmother's house is just unlivable with ceilings and walls cracking, mouse infestations, and mold in the basement from water leaks.
I only reported 4 items that I for sure knew I was missing. Once they put out the list of items that most users were missing, I was able to find more from that list that I hadn't thought of. I was also missing 4 craftable bouquets from past Vesnalis, so I reported those too.
It's terrible. She expects him to stay there every weekend and is disappointed when he doesn't. It doesn't help that he goes over there whenever she bakes cookies or pies. And she hasn't once checked in on me, which to be honest if she did, I'd probably go off on her. Exactly, she shouldn't have to be told and I doubt that she ever considers moving back in with her dad and leaving her husband behind.
I wonder how expensive it would be to mail a live animal. I don't think my local post office has packaging for that. I've got 12 new kittens now. Another barn cat had three last weekend.
I'm waiting on 4 different orders to show up and so far only one has been shipped. I haven't gotten any updates on the others.
💐 Happy Mothers Day!! 💐

I hate when things get fussy like that!
Yeah it is different if we choose to spend all of our time at home. I like having the option of going out!
I haven't been able to find hand soap all week! WTH is going on? It feels like nothing is restocking anywhere.
Oh no! Deff safer in the pen. They don't realize those big monster things will hurt them.
Well at least that is a heck of a lot better then paying for a PS subscription every month plus paying even more for the Final Fantasy game every month. It adds up. I feel like I am paying for the PS4 over and over again!
We don't have a whole lot of games. We tend to lean more toward the cute ones like the lego games and spyro. There just aren't too many of those. These pay to play games are getting out of hand. If we have to keep paying for something then I think the initial game itself should be free!!
When I was growing up I think that was what was growing on the tree in our backyard. I loved eating those. We never did anything with them. Just ate them off the tree lol.
Have you thought about tearing down one of the houses and building on the land? or is that just not possible?
The last time I checked the list was confusing and I didn't see any CWs on it. Those are the items I am most concerned about :( I guess I better look again.
I just wonder what she is going to be like when/if you guys decide to have kids. I would hate to see it get worse. She might expect to get the kids all the time 0_0
Awe kittens! I bet it would cost a small fortune. The poor baby would probably be terrified! With my luck it would come flying out of the box and scratch my face off lol! I am going to keep checking our local place when this is all over.
I hate waiting for things. Emily's tablet got here! She is so happy about it and I am just relieved it got here safely! That is a lot of money to spend on one item. It is so pretty. It is supposed to be gold, but I think it is more of a rose gold.
Hey Hun :)
I am just glad the site is back up. I hope we didn't lose anymore items!

Vesnali soon! The item directory is filling up with new items. :)

Yay! I am so excited for this!! Unfortunately, I have to go out for a bit so I can't start celebrating right away :(

I've only had the mouse for 6 or 7 months. It was an early Christmas present from Chris. I finally just turned it off and went back to a wired mouse because I don't want to spend half my time trying to get it to work.
I like having the option to go out too. I really miss shopping at thrift stores and actually eating in a restaurant instead of in the car.
I haven't really been anywhere to look for handsoap and anytime I do run to the store I forget to look. It could be that the store is taking too long to restock things. I know I've found employees at the nearest Walmart hiding in bathrooms to avoid work. And Amazon is getting on my nerve too. I've got an order from a month ago that finally shipped a few days ago. So much for my prime shipping. Everything I've ordered has taken weeks to show up, but everything Chris orders (he shares my prime benefits) gets 2-day shipping.
We're constantly reminding them to not run towards moving vehicles and some of them still have to be held back.
It is. I debated if I wanted to get another year of Nintendo Online because I didn't know if I would use it, then I found out a friend has Animal Crossing, so I bought the subscription. Chris is the one with the PS+ subscription and he buys the whole year. Two years the year subscription was on sale for $40, which was nice. It's so annoying when everything needs a subscription. I miss the days when you could play online on a console without paying extra money.
I have too many games, to the point, it gets hard to choose which one to play sometimes. Yes, play to play games should be free if the player is forced to pay more money just to play.
I think people also make jams and jellies with mulberries. Hey, it makes an easy snack when you're already outside.
We plan on tearing down the house that my grandparents lived in and building our house on that spot. But that house still needs to get emptied out first. The weather just hasn't really cooperated the past few years. We need to back a trailer up to the porch to load dressers and other furniture on but whenever we have time to do it, it rains and makes the ground too soft.
The list that I looked at had CWs at the very bottom and they were all ones that I've never owned. I'm sure I still have items missing, I just don't have a clue what they might be. I now have all my CWs listed in an excel spreadsheet as a backup.
I know she'll get worse and I wouldn't put it past her to ask to see them every weekend/constantly ask when we will be coming to visit. And if she does do that, I will be the one to tell her that she is capable of driving and can come to visit us (after asking) and if she can't do that much then she won't get to see them. I'm already to the point that I don't want to be around her and am debating if I even want to visit them for holidays. Chris's middle brother and his wife drove three hours on Mother's day to surprise her for lunch and asked Chris if we wanted to go along. Chris called me to ask if I wanted to and...well...my answer came out really quick and had a few expletives.
They are all really sweet. Two of the mothers are getting dumb because they move them to really cramped, cold spots and I have to move them back. Some of the shelters around here have events where they waive or halve the adoption fee. I don't need any more animals though.
I'm glad it got to you safely and that Emily likes it! Ooohh, sounds pretty. Mine is just plain black but I have it in a purple case, I'm waiting on 2 orders still. One is supposed to get here tomorrow but it's sat in Utah for two days. The other one shipped yesterday but tracking says it will require a signature.....nothing in the box is worth much to require a signature.
I didn't notice it was down; I have been so busy

Yeah I had a mouse like that once. I went back to using the one that came with the comp.
I miss going to the movies!! Sitting in the big reliner and eating popcorn! I am actually used to eating in the car. Emily does not like eating in restaurants and most of the good places are too far to bring the food home. It would be cold and nasty!
I got really lucky at Family Dollar. Managed to get some TP and hand soap :D sad times that getting those 2 things makes me so happy lol. It is crazy how long it is taking to get stuff.
Awe poor puppies want to play with those big things!
I do too! Everything costs so much now and it just keeps costing more and more. They are so greedy! it isn't like they aren't already a multi-billion dollar business. They have to want more! I wish I could have gotten that deal.
Luckily Emily does not want that many games. That might change if she gets a switch or the new PS5. Not sure when we would be able to afford that. I dread how much it is going to cost!
Oh that sounds good! I really miss that tree.
Sounds like a huge pain, but at least one day you can have your dream house :D
I need to find that list again. I really hope I am not missing any CWs.
That would be awful. You can always hope that his brother has kids first lol. Might take some of the pressure off you! I can just imagine what you said :P
I wonder why they would do that. Do you think they feel safer there for some reason? I wish ours would do that.
Me too! I was really shocked when they said it shipped. Then I worried that someone would steal it or it would get delivered to the wrong building (has happened before). Emily downloaded Pokemon go and she loves it. She caught quite a few cute ones just sitting one the couch lmao! Hopefully your stuff will arrive soon!
Yeah it has been fussy off and on since the event started :(

With my computer being hooked up to the tv in the living room, a wireless mouse would be nice so I could sit farther away from the tv. That wireless mouse wasn't cheap either, but my husband and I swapped mouses until we find something better.
I miss catching cheap movies at the local theater. Most of the good restaurants here are too far away to wait to eat until we get home, and some of them closed during the lockdown. However, Schlotzky's is my new favorite place to order from.
I keep forgetting to look for handsoap. facepalm I even had it on my list to look for it on Friday and I still forgot. Walmart has changed so much stuff around and put so much stuff behind locked glass, that it's difficult to find stuff. Chris needed a facial scrub for men and we figured it would be with razors and shaving cream, but we couldn't find the razors at Walmart. So he grabbed a facial scrub from the makeup section and it had to be put in a locked container.
Amazon has had a message on their website that they are prioritizing certain orders due to the virus and state that they are prioritizing cleaning supplies, tp, and medical supplies, which is fine except I don't think they are taking into consideration people who order supplies for their business that aren't in the categories they are prioritizing.
The youngest dog and the dog that broke her leg are the two that still have to be held back sometimes. If a vehicle that they don't know comes into the yard and we have them out running around, they don't listen when we tell them to come back to us.
The Ps+ subscription may have been on sale during a Black Friday sale two years ago on the PlayStation store. I came across it when I was browsing through the various sales.
I keep hearing that the PS5 will be reasonably priced, but then the rumored price is $450-$499. o.O That's not reasonably priced! So far there is only one game for the PS5 that I want and that game will also be released for PS4. And Sony hasn't really released any more info on how many PS4 games will be compatible with the PS5 at launch. Chris and I will probably wait a bit to upgrade to a PS5 to find out if all of my PS4 games will work with it.
😀 Yeah, it probably will be. We want to do as much of the work on the house ourselves as possible to help cut down some costs.
Here's the list staff posted CWs are at the very bottom.
I can only hope that they do, but they just bought a house and she seems to want to prioritize buying a horse over everything else, so I have no clue when they will have kids. Yeah. It wasn't nice. There were a lot of expletives since I had to repeat myself a few times (hands-free calling sucks sometimes) and I said if she can't check in on my once during the two months, why should I make the effort to see her on Mother's Day over my own mother. Oh, and Chris's parents want to buy a quarter of beef from my parents since they are getting a steer butchered, but they couldn't ask my parents themselves. They asked Chris to ask. I'm wondering if they think they will get a discount because they are 'family'.
It might be that they think the kittens are safer there. One put her's behind the freeze and mini-fridge (which is open on the back at the bottom, so not safe), and the other put her's in a really small space so they were piled on top of each other and she had to lay on them to feed them. Those two mothers are now sharing a collapsible crate and co-parenting. It seems like bigger shelters or humane societies do the big adoption events, or they happen when they are nearing max capacity.
That would be a big concern for me too! In my last year of college, I ordered a laptop because the one I was using was starting to kick the bucket. FedEx delivered it to the right place, but since I wasn't home, they didn't deliver it and left a note that if they failed to deliver it three times it would be sent back. 😠 I had to skip class the next morning to be home for the delivery. My other concern was that my crappy roommate would take it and keep it. I've tried Pokemon Go once and haven't played it since because I don't know how many pokemon would show in the country.
All of my previously ordered stuff has arrived! Now I'm just waiting on two orders from Etsy.

Yeah it is amazing how much these little things cost 0_0 I need to get a new controller for the PS3 and it still costs a lot. Should be dirt cheap by now!
Pretty much everything good around here is closed up right now. It really stinks. I just can't help but worry about whether or not they will be able to open up again. I know they are losing a lot of money because of all this downtime.
I almost forgot yesterday, but thankfully the guy ahead of me in line had two bottles. I got out of line and hurried over to the soap aisle. Thankfully I found two bottle on the shelf. There were not that many left! A scrub in a locked container? Oh good grief! People will steal anything these days.
I don't think they should have the right to do that. They are providing a service, and everyone expect to get what they paid for :( that does not seem right at all.
It must get a little nerve wrecking! At least you don't let a lot of visitors out where you live right?
It just feels like it is running into so much money!
It depends on your definition of "reasonably priced" lol. I deff do not consider anything over $300 to be reasonable. I don't even want to pay THAT much! I want to know that too! Not that I have that many games, but I am deff not going to rush out to buy a PS5 until I see if it is even worth it to us.
Yeah if is deff a good idea to do as much of the work yourselves that you can. People charge a fortune and will probably charge more to make up for all the lost work.
Thanks for the list Hun :)
I don't blame her. Kids are expensive!! I don't blame you for wanting to see your own mom on Mother's day. Kinda crazy that she would have an issue with it. No discounts!! lol
Awe they all sound so sweet :) Cute little kitties!
I am just glad someone is always home. I have only lost a couple of packages, and thankfully I got my money back for both.
Emily loves Pokemon Go. She got two more pikachus, but just missed a piplup. He got out of the ball and ran off! I am surprised how many she has gotten without leaving the apartment.
Oh yay! That is great :D
Hey, everyone. RL has been crazy. But I am back :*
🌸 || || 🌸
All right folks back into the Shark tank. :) I hope everyone had a lovely Vesnali. It was a bit stressful in real life for me, but I have enough coins to get everything I want.
How is everyone? HUGS for all during these uncertain times. I know I am unsettled among other feelings. I hope all of you sharkies are safe and well. <3

Hey Hun hugs
Hey :D thanks for the ping back to the board!! Loved the event, but as usual I was hoping for a plot or something lol. Doing good. Just a little tired of being stuck at home.
Hugs fellow Sharkies! I hope everyone is ok! The last month of R/L has been crazy here also.
Welcome Back
Hello everyone. Hang in there. We will all get through this one day at a time - together. Take care and stay safe.
And thanks to everyone for all the beautiful flowers. :-)
