My mental health moment for today: realizing the amount due on the gas bill ends in 69 cents, thinking about making a joke about it to the internet, and ultimately deciding no one really cares.
“When do you think the snow’s gonna melt?” my son asked me yesterday.

While folding the laundry this morning, I saw a hole in my husband’s work pants that needed mending. My sewing machine isn’t accessible at the moment, so I went the iron-on patching route. Found a scrap that would look OK from the outside, positioned it on a piece of interfacing, and ironed it on from the inside.
Except I had meant to use the one-sided interfacing, not the Heat-N-Bond that has a second adhesive side. Time to get creative with the inside of the patch! 😆


As I was walking in from the parking garage for our quarterly Data Services in-person meeting yesterday, the sunrise over the Maumee reminded me why I enjoyed working downtown.
