Argh, Signal is down due to the AWS issues. It's how I normally talk to Hubby during the day. Not sure if I should have us on a Matrix or SimpleX client as a backup, since he's still not a Nostr adopter.

GA Nostr friends. Happy Sunday. Quiet day here. We had Bible class and then regular church this morning. Lu didn't pee or poo in the house, thankfully. Her eyesight is getting fairly bad, to where she won't see one of us in a room unless we're making noise and moving around. It's sad to watch her aging. Hubby has officially commandeered the VR headset I bought as an attempt to entertain myself through this season. He found bowling and mini golf games, so I guess there goes that. At least one of us is using it. On that note, I have some tea calling my name. Enjoy your last hours of the weekend!

My little pup looks so...little. She got a haircut last week, and I miss her beard. My bearded old lady. 🐶

My husband has a big ol' zit begging to be popped on his thigh. How long do I wait for him to be asleep before I attack? #pimplepopper

GA Nostr friends. What do we think, Nostriches? I've begun to hate my Umbrel device that Hubby was so kind to buy me a few months ago. It works for a few days, but then ultimately manages to freeze up our entire network until it's disconnected the router has been rebooted. @Oshi (推し) recommended Start9, which I did have installed an on old desktop for a while, but was kinda meh about because it didn't offer as many apps as Umbrel. Now I'm wondering about backing up all my movies and other files, and possibly repurposing the Umbrel as a Start9 device. Any thoughts? Is this just a terrible idea?

GM Nostr friends. No winter storms here, but we are definitely in the Arctic blast zone. Very VERY cold outside this morning, so I have all the curtains drawn in an effort to keep what heat we have inside. Kinda need a few groceries today, but I really don't want to go out if I don't have to, and I'm not the kind to pay delivery fees to have some other poor soul go out and get stuff for me. Guess I can do without bananas for a while longer! I just started watching Dept Q on Netflix. Anyone else seen this? It reminds me a bit of House MD (Hugh Laurie as the brilliant but caustic head doc), but with British detectives instead. So far so good! Seems like there are some solid characters. I do love a mystery. Realized two days ago that I couldn't find my credit card for Hubby's Visa account. Looked everywhere I could think of, but nothing. I'm not generally one to lose things, so I asked him to lock the account. Was planning to tear up the house this morning while he went to work on his mom's house, but we got to talking before he left, and as a last resort, I asked him to look through his wallet. Voila! He IS the type to forget things fairly regularly. I believe a couple months back we went out for pho one night, and forgot his wallet, so I handed him my card for our account to go pay while I cleaned up our table. I guess he pocketed it and never gave it back. Goes to show how much I rely on physical cards these days! Stay warm and safe everyone. Have a good Saturday.
