TGP Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 G.R.F.F.N Food Log: Stardate: 20220208 Today there were sammiches: Featuring Beef, Muenster Cheese, and Sliced Pickles, on Ciabatta bread. Bless the Earl of Sandwich anyway. Like many of us, he was a gamer. After final assembly. There may have been Mustard, Green Leaf Lettuce, and Roma Tomatoes involved as well. 13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kristof65 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Every freaking school morning: Me: "Time to get your shoes on" My daughter: <groaning> "Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!" Me: <ten minutes later> "Time to go" My daughter (usually still putting her shoes on) <groaning> "Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!" This last part may be repeated anywhere from 1 to 20 times, during which I'm resisting the urge to just yell "Get your broccoli'ing shoes and let's go gosh broccoli!" I have 6.5 more years of this? 1 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BD was really good about shoes. Shoes meant going OUT! Clothing, that was what she thought was optional. A determined young lady heading for the door. 12 hours ago, kitchen_wolf said: @TheAuldGrump Reading this topic backwards, this was confusing.

ManvsMini Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 On 2/7/2022 at 3:13 PM, Inarah said: Never understood why we needed to switch to metric, after spending years of my youth learning pounds and ounces, feet and yards right when things started to make sense to my 8 yr old brain suddenly everything had to be decimal. Bah! And decades later we're still not using it anywhere. Because ordering a liter of beverage is more satisfying than ordering a pint. 😁 You do use it a lot more in science fields, or as someone noted, with machines/parts becoming more metric. I'm pretty comfortable going back and forth between pounds/kilos, and inches/cm. Temperatures from Celsius to Fahrenheit are more challenging to accurately get a hang of. If I don't need an exact number, I just fall back to what a meteorologist once said on TV decades ago: double the Celsius number and add 30. Gives a fair approximation. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have no idea... 36 minutes ago, Chaoswolf said: Look at the bright side, you could have 10 more years of this. Given that she's 11.5, and what @Glitterwolf said, that's close to 10 years. NOOOOooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 24 minutes ago, PaganMegan said: BD was really good about shoes. Shoes meant going OUT! Clothing, that was what she thought was optional. A determined young lady heading for the door. This really only started once her brother moved out last year. Before that, she usually had her shoes on before her brother did and we were waiting on him. Now that she's an "only child" though... oh, and given the stories you and @TheAuldGrump have told here over the years, it does not surprise me in the least that BD was willing to go out sans clothing. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Vixens are 22 and 24 now. One of them ( youngest) is now studying in Norway for 6 months, but semi-quoting the words of the legendary Terminator...She'll be back! Oldest is also still here. Oh..and not putting on their shoes in time is usually the least of our "problems" 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
