@chemgirl This happened to me years ago! It was awful and quite scary! It took a week or so for me to realize that I was feeling very ill only when in my own home. Nausea, chest congestion, shakiness, headaches. As soon as we removed the offending stove it went away. Thank goodness I am the only one who spent so much time in the kitchen. I do suspect my baby son (at the time) was feeling it as well....
I hope you feel better soon! It took about a week or two for my chest to clear up. I will never have gas again! Glad you found the source!

Oh no I’m glad everyone was ok!

I think in my case covid exacerbated the situation. I’m feeling ill so I wasn’t leaving the house other than one quick trip to the testing centre. It’s exactly as you described, headache, congestion, shakiness with some exhaustion thrown in. I’ve been camped out on the sofa most days for the last three weeks.

This sofa lol

I ordered a couple pairs of Uniqlo Heatech legging pants, and they've finally arrived.

Pretty sure they will be the only pants I wear until March, lol.

I'm curious. How do these fit? On the hip or higher? Are they short waisted or long waisted? Slim fitting? Are they long enough for an inseam of 31"?Are they really comfy? Sorry for all the questions. I am a leggings girl and live in my American Apparel leggings and Tipsy Elves leggings.
Thanks.❤️

They are super comfortable because they really wear like leggings, but have belt loops and back pockets to make them look more like pants.

They are slightly high rise (no muffin top) and slim fitting. I would suggest sizing up if you have any hips because they are a Japanese brand and run small.

To get a longer inseam, you'd have to go with the regular legging pants in tall fit (32"). And they offer free hemming.

HTH!

All of the preliminary paperwork and torture is over! We sign on our new home today! I am super excited as it really is like a dream home for me. The area is what I always wanted to live in but thought would never happen. The house is nice enough to be good, but just enough room for improvement that I don't feel guilty having work done on it.

The hill across the river has snow on it. That is state owned and can't be developed. Our property goes up to the river.

Bittersweet day today: My daughter graduated today! I'm super proud, but also sad. I'm super proud because SHE IS ONLY SIXTEEN! This girl started school at 4 (with the plan for her to repeat kinder because of her age), she was reading by Christmas that year :O She's super smart and I wish she'd go to college, but she says she's DONE! I'm sad, because I didn't expect to have two 2020 graduates!

Here's her (tiny self, she was really tiny till Sophomore year) on the first day of school:

@Cozystitches, you must be so proud, rightfully so; congratulations to your daughter (and to you)! Military service is a tough path but she sounds very smart and I'm sure carefully analyzed if it is the right choice for her ... and nice she has time between now and Spring to get into a military state of fitness (if she's not already).

There’s a deer family living in my yard. Sometimes I see glowing eyes in my windows at night and it’s the little boy deer looking inside.

I’m feeding them so hopefully they stay on my property and are safe from hunters. We have a huge area of crown land down the road and if they end up there they are done for.

I’ve already found a few people on our property and had to tell them to gtfo. Luckily I work from home and have cameras.

I love deer so much. We have them all over our neighborhood and it breaks my heart people hunt them down. :(
Thank you for taking care of them as best you can.

I cannot stop taking photos and videos of them. Such magnificent animals. :kiss2:

Today I decided it was time to replace some of my dogs collars. they're looking pretty ratty and tattered.

So I went through my fabric boxes :lol:
20201224_121417.jpg

and started with 4 collars. She's got 10 so its a good enough start and I've never made her collars before. It was a good opportunity to deconstruct a martingale and figure out how they're made!

so far, I finished 3, got hand cramps and had to stop. NASA will be done tomorrow with a couple more.

not a great pic but I fit tested one and they work really well!
