Just wondering

[simplyn2deep]

What’s your “Back in my day, we…” memory?
when connecting to the internet, it made that god awful sound and there was no way of sneaking online because of it lol

If you were given one thousand acres of land that you didn’t need to pay taxes on but couldn’t sell, what would you
Build houses/cabins. my friends/family would have someplace rent-free to stay when they visited. If they decided to live there, then we could work out some sort of rent agreement

When was the last time you yelled at someone?
In my head, all the time. But maybe yesterday? Unfortunately, I have to yell at Kim to get her attention. I just try to do it when no one is around (I don't want anyone calling APS on me again!) or let her sister do it.


Finished my zoom online class for the day. It's Intro to Accounting and my current grade in the class is 77%. a few semesters ago, I took another accounting class and didn't do well, so I'm glad I'm doing okay in this one. The thing is, I suck at taking tests (in this class). We've had 7 homework assignments and they're all 100%. Then there's a multiple-choice assignment that's really a quiz and my lowest for those was 71%. Last Monday was our 2nd exam (they cover 3 chapters) and I got a 67% on that (on exam 1 I got 73%).

The class that I seem to be rocking more is Business Law. I took a previous course a few semesters ago and this is the 2nd part of it. I'm currently rocking an 89% but that doesn't include 7 completed discussion questions and the exam that was given last Friday and due this coming Friday. I definitely need to do that asap. There's also a 100 point extra credit assignment do at the end of the month. I'm thinking about doing it (I know, way to procrastinate) because it will help if I do poorly on the 4th exam and final exam that happen later in December.


Also, I forgot to call about my CalFresh. Like, it wasn't even on my brain until I came to post here tonight.

I need to get it reinstated, but I don't want to spend 30 mins playing phone tag. I only have 90 days to request an appeal, so I have until the end of February but it needs to be taken care of now not later (waiting probably won't look good).





I did part of my makeup on Sunday. I really wanted to wear lipstick, but because of masks that's a moot point.



I joked on FB that because I put on eyeshadow 1 time, I was looking at color palettes. Well, it wasn't so much of a joke as something I was doing. I have a few that I like and might buy myself over the coming months. Hopefully things will open up more that I can go out more and have more chances to wear makeup and not a mask.


Now to clean off my bed, pull up a movie on amazon prime video, and relax.

Ah, the modem screech. I remember it well.

I believe we were at the start of having cell phones, so no one really called the landline but my brother who lived out of the country...and the school, but I never did anything to warrant a call from them

We still are a landline family. I have a cell phone, but rarely use it. I'm a child of the 60's.

If I'm able to get my own place, I want to try to get my old landline number back. We had it from 1986-2015! The only thing that changed was the area code.

In last 5 years I've called it a few times and it was still out of service, so that gave me hope.

BTW, great photo! You have kind eyes.

Lovely pic - the eyeshadow colour looks great on you!

What is Calfresh? is that something to do with social security?

You're doing great at your school work! Keep up the fantastic work! ;-)

Thank you for the compliments.

CalFresh is money given to people below a certain income level to help them buy groceries.

Whenever your income changes, you're supposed to report it and they will determine whether you get more money, less money or no money.

In my case it was no money because they said I didn’t provide proof of self employment income. I told them what I had access to for my "self-employment" and rather than accept that, they chose to terminate my funding.

That's so ridiculous! I hope you get it reinstated without having to jump through too many hoops.
