Can confirm: Goo Gone will remove tar from ceramic tile.

Folding and putting up laundry with a broken wrist?

I didn't have "ful-sized black widow spider" on my bingo card, so I guess that's like a bonus square?!

I don't know what kind of day you're having, but I hope you're not trying to dig the tip of a barberry thorn out of your own thumb.

Also? *OUCH*

So far today I have had to vacuum bits of insulation off the driveway and out of the grass.

Among other things.

This is about as much fun as it probably sounds.
#housewifery

Hooboy.
An ant crawled inside my gardening glove and bit me on the back of the hand--hot nerve pain shot all the way down my pinky. And now, massive headache.

This is as bad as getting stung by a jellyfish.

My morning thus far: weeds, dug; skeeters, swatted.

When I was younger, I wanted a full-length mirror to check my outfits.

Now I just use it to check for ticks. 😁

You know what sucks about sewing on velcro?
THE VELCRO GRABS THE THREAD. 🤦‍♀️

Today's first victim:

That glob of paint on top of the hinge kinda looks like a jaunty little hat. Paint blob fascinator, maybe. 🤔

Arm day. 😆

Super bored and looking for weird conversations. Ask me anything, or send me anything.

Apple Pie

I am surprisingly proud of this one, and it was a spontaneous cleaning the pantry pie. #Baking #housewifery #applepie

Ngl, it's disconcerting to go to the dry cleaners to pick up a matched set of 3 curtains that was supposed to be ready yesterday to find that 1 of them is..."in production."

Because "it has 2 holes in it."
me: ......

Well, part of our dining room window is covered--about 2/3.

Ivory-painted window trim has flaking and cracking paint popping up from the surface.

Ivory-painted window trim has had loose paint and dried-out caulk scraped off. The result is patchy and rough.

An antique oak floor butts up to a baseboard radiator and an ivory-colored wall. This is covered with a sheet of plastic which has a mass of paint chips and old caulk scattered on it and spilling out onto the wooden floor. A wooden footstool sits amidst the chaos.

Today, I started scraping the barely-hanging-on paint off the trim around our bigger bedroom window. I could feel paint chips pinging off my cheeks, off my lips. Creepy.

Here's before and aftermath--not sanding, just scraping for now. #housewifery

Well, I did heavy lifting while cussing today, so fuck that debate. #housewifery

It is a dirt-hauling day here at the Walker compound.

Oof. #housewifery

Crawling across the floor with bucket of bleach water and a cleaning rag is not my favorite way to spend a morning.
#housewifery

Hmm. Could I just say something like "dishes & laundry & cleaning up after pets and husband, ad infinitum"? 😆

So the antique pantry (c. 1950s) is in fact British. I KNEW IT. Brand name Remploy, a company created postwar to employ disabled folks making furniture. At its height, they had 90 factories.

The little badge is about the size of a penny and was layered in paint. I fixed. 😊 #housewifery

a small luncheon packed neatly into a flat, lidded plastic container

the yeti's #lunch for tomorrow is, if i say so myself, an example of god-tier #housewifery: just LOOK at this compact, portable motherfucker!!!

(it's turkey & salami & swiss on sourdough w/tomato & arugula, smokehouse almonds, some weird-ass knockoff pringles he bought on sale, & a hard candy)

Cleaned bathrooms like a mother today. House smells of bleach now. Welp. #housewifery
