Me too! I think out of all the games I started when I was younger this is the one I stayed with because I actually made friends here and felt like I belonged and wouldn't be judged for who I was :)

All good genres and all so different. I love historical fiction!

Oh no! Are you sick? I hope it's not bad and gone soon!!

We're about to get more snow. Grrrrrr! After our hot dry summer and first part of fall I promised myself I wouldn't be irritated by rain or cold this season but I didn't consider snow. LOL

Did you get your yummy food? And I agree potatoes are good! :-)

Idk if I am or not. I have a headache, nausea, I had vertigo yesterday morning when I got up it was so bad I fell into a wall (that went away quickly after but still) and then I had a low fever while working yesterday. Today I have a headache still and my stomach is upset and I'm just feeling bad in general but it's better than yesterday at least. I am drinking lots of water hoping that helps :)

Well that sucks! The fever part is always an indicator of feeling really bad. Hopefully, the water helps!!!!!!

so far the only historical fiction i enjoy is the Earths Children series. Babel was complete trash

Thank you :) I've been watching youtube and playing games all day to make me feel better :)

I can't name a one, but I know I like them. I also really like true crime and biographies. Right now I'm reading The Love Songs of W.E.B. Du Bois. Not my usual but I like it.

That's great and I'm glad you're taking care of yourself! :-)

Thank you :) I'm going to bed soon but tomorrow I think I'm going to start putting out gifts under everyones trees on here ^^

Sorry, I didn't ghost, I promise. the 30th was spent watching the dog and doing the online grocery orders. It was pretty hellish if I'm honest since dad was at the doctor's office for hours.

the 1st was spent picking up and putting away the bulk of the orders. the morning of the 2nd (around 3am) saw me very ill. I'll spare you the details, but wound up needing mum's help. Then at 6,30 I wound up needing dad's help. I had to call him and get him to come help me since I could barely move. I was shaking, my tummy in tatters, It was pretty awful. I spent most of the day sleeping and barely ate anything. It wasn't till 9.30 that night I actually found something my body didn't mind me having--raspberry jello. I went to bed praying to feel better. THis morning, My back is hurting this morning (nothing out of the norm there) and tummy still feels wibbly wobbly.

Yes. Sounds wonderful. And pasta.

Snow is butts.

Oh wow, late? That is good though, right? 😂 The cold weather has been much earlier for us this year and I'm loving it so much lol!

Ooo that's awesome about the external storage you got! I have to get one of those for my switch at some point XD

oh my goodness, I bet the crowds were insane back in the 90s! 😂

I'm not gonna lie, I've been avoiding my pings like the plague 😂 I have so much chaos going on with my pings LOL! I'm finally taking some time to reply before I head out for a few hours loll ILY! I miss you! I hope you're doing goooood <3

Oh my goodness! Did you have a stomach virus? D: I just recovered from one of those myself. It seems to be going around right now 😭 hugs I hope you're feeling better today! It took about a week for my stomach to feel normal again D:

hey I have not gone anywhere just really busy ❤

Oh no!! Any idea what's going on? I hope you feel better really soon! 🙏

Round 3 of the "butt" hit last night around 9 and was about 6 inches. Luckily today it's a balmy 45 degrees so maybe will be mostly melted by tonight. The dogs are not happy about any of it and I had to carry the chihuahua for parts of our walk today. Lol I guess he's not a fan of deep slushy "butt" aka snow. 😳

I know you got a lot going on. Are you feeling well now? How's the hubs feeling? ILY too!! <3

Hopefully you get some good writing accomplished! :-) <3

EDIT to add: I don't care if anyone pings me for a contest. And at some point I hope to respond!! :-P

- I hope you don't mind me pinging you on the various Luminaire give-a-ways, etc. I find. I love to spread the cheer. :D

-I won't be able to get the country hand an biscuits until next Thursday. In the mean time I'm snacking on some rice crackers. They are both suitably crunchy and salty. :D

- omg, I hope you're all better and that your dad is doing ok. I love online grocery shopping. I swear it's the best thing that came out of the pandemic.If only I could get delivery out here in the sticks. I was wondering last night how the lap apron you were embroidering was coming along? :D

- you would have been proud of the crowd. lolYou must be exhausted after wrangling with the site over the CWs. :D

Are you feeling any better? I need to start gifting too.

Rice crackers are yum! I just m made Liz a milkshake and then snacked on some Juanita's Chillipeno (sp?) chips and a few spoonfuls of ice cream. I'm lactose sensitive so had to keep it to a minimum. Lol

- Oh, that's right. It's your pig-out day. Don't eat too much. XD I don't know if I'm lactose intolerant. I don't like milk much so don't eat much milk products. Except cheese. I do love a good cheddar. :D

Yes pig out!!! :-D I don't think I'm intolerant but I know I'm sensitive. I used to miss cheese but feel so much better without it that I don't miss it anymore. :-P How's things going with your new found relatives?

- Oh, I love me some gooey cheese. All warm and melty... I think I'm going to need a grilled cheese sandwich... lol ... :O Wait. Didn't I tell you? :O I could have sworn I did. On Halloween my dad turned into a pod person.Remember how I was waiting for the other shoe to drop? Well, it did and it did in a spectacular way. I'll smail you. This is not for public consumption. ;) <3

Uh-oh! :-(

My ex-now-bestie works in Tacoma, in overnight healthcare. She just got home around 4 your time. It was bad!
