the smell is back. round 2: ground coffee ☕
It took many repeats of wiping down the dresser with vinegar & lemon mixed with water to give her a decent clean (it used to be in a room where people smoked), but after about 3 hours I got rid of most of the smell and brown tarnish 🍋
Dusk lighting doesn't do her justice, so I'll take some pictures tomorrow :) she's a beauty!

Man, have I got a double whammy for you 😂
I was looking for a Christmas present for my in-laws. The second hit made me cringe and laugh so hard.
Now, look closely at the name... 😭😂
Ho-ho-holy shit 🎅🏻🦌

One of our smoke detectors kept blaring every 10-20 minutes for almost 2 hours. Babe finally managed to rip it off the ceiling to turn it off. We tried cleaning it, resetting it, testing it - nothing worked. Tomorrow we're putting up another one.
About an hour before it started the power went off. We think it's because we were using the oven and airfryer (next to an open door and window) at the same time and it short circuited. We just flipped a switch in the fuse box and it was fine. The smoke detector also runs on a (lithium) battery, so it isn't connected to the power grid and the battery isn't replaceable. There's also a smoke detector upstairs in the stairwell, not separated by any doors or walls whatsoever, and that one hasn't gone off.
My body is tense and my mind is racing. I can't seem to get myself out of fight-or-flight mode. Was this just weird timing? Was it airfryer fumes? But then why didn't the second one go off? Pfff...
I totally don't feel at ease right now, lol :')

I tried to put privacy window film on the hobby room window and twice it collected big pockets of air on one side overnight.
I used window cleaner to prep the entire window and sprayed it with plenty of water before applying the film. Then babe says:
'Honey, I know this is a dumb question, but did you remove the backing foil?'

concert, cocktails and (lots of) crying 💙
#the evening was magical once again#the set list was surprising but amazing#bawled my eyes out when they started playing millionaires (my all time fave)#enjoyed a cocktail. got a new band tee.#before getting off the stage danny casually told us the entire show had been recorded and we'll be able to see it soon#my throat is sore and my back is tired but i feel so incredibly fulfilled <3#i didn't expect the band to continue after mark passed away two years ago so this was an incredibly emotional experience#it's gonna take me a couple of days to process and recover haha#seeing them perform live just means the world to me. these guys' songs have been with me through highs & lows for well over a decade#there's a reason they don't call us fans - they call us 'the script family'. that's truly what it feels like. a safe haven.#i put the shirt on the minute i got it and haven't taken it off (i slept in it too). gonna wash it tomorrow so i can live in it next week.#anyway. proud to be part of the fam :) wouldn't have it any other way#the script#the script family

Hey, if you’re not as mentally quick as you used to be because of your illness- that’s okay. If you’re can’t think as fast or handle as many tasks that’s okay. You aren’t stupid, you aren’t unintelligent, and you aren’t less worthy of love or respect. It’s okay that your brain won’t or can’t go back to how it used to be. It’s different now, but it’s okay.
