@Anarchist Beauty: Not a problem! :)
@Totalanimefan: Oh yeah, very common here around this time of year actually.

@Totalanimefan: Does it? Haven't been that far out.
*^*; My net keeps going down so I think we're switch companies soon...
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Sounds like it! I just live in the dust bowl area so not a huge shift there. Lol
Yeah, especially since it's how I learn new crafts and I can't afford to by craft books. :/ Our library didn't have much crafting wise either. And I need to find out how to make miniature trees for my model lamp kit atm. =^=;
Sudden Link, ATT, Chisholm Broadband, and Pioneer... We've already tried Sudden Link, they ripped us off pretty bad so big no for them and we have ATT now. Chisholm is pretty much the same as ATT going off what my folks say cause they just got it so we're thinking Pioneer. Plus it's only $10 more then what we pay now but faster speed by a lot.
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Nope, they don't have any for the crafts I'm working on atm so I've just been using my phone to look up stuff.
Most of our neighbors use Sudden Link or ATT but a lot in our town have been switching to Chisholm or Pioneer since their customer service is better.
My SO says we're going to set up an appointment with Pioneer this week. He says since it's the fiber internet, it tends to run much faster then the cable internet like the other three. I dunno about any of that but from the sounds of it, it'll only be $75 to set it up cause they've been waving the install fee. *^*
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Yeah, they just started it recently. I have no idea since I've never had it before so I'm just going of what SO says.
I'd be happy with anything as long as it's better then this. Lol
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Oh, congrats! It's great that yall will have better service too. *^*
Lol My SO is getting ready to go make the appointment soon, we're just waiting for tomorrow since it'll be payday. XD
It's been so slow it takes several minutes for voltra just to pop open so I'm looking forward to trying the fiber thing.
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Yeah... I'm not sure? It depends on how busy they are, I guess.
They have a store in town so it might only be a day or two.
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: We can hope so anyway! XD
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Not bad, I guess? We're cleaning the property up as we can and fixing stuff as we go. We've been managing okay money wise but prices went up on foodstuffs here so it's been harder for me to stay gluten-free. I've also been fighting my allergies bad so I plan to try local honey again. I've had three severe allergic reactions already. *^*;
How about you? Everything going okay? And feeling better?
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Yeah, we're just using what we have on hand! So no real cost, thankfully cause we can't really afford much atm. *^*; And the Internet will have to wait a week or two, unfortunately. My hubs got the mechanics in town to look at the dodge so they could try to fix it and that's going to cost us over $200 but it's supposed to be fixed now! My hubs thought it'd be a few days before they'd be done so we could pay next week but they got it done fast so I dunno how that's going to work. =^=; Yeah, I've been trying too! I was also given some gluten-free pancake mix and stuff so I can eat on that.
Oh, glad y'all are doing better! Yeah, it does take a while for energy levels to come back. Hopefully, it'll be soon for yall.
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Yep... So super surprised it was done so quickly. Hoping it's really fixed for good this time. *^*; Yeah, and I really like the kind we got since it has a nice flavor. I've thought about it but our local food bank does set bag options and most of it has gluten so really wouldn't help me. It's mainly just because of my food allergies that tend to be the problem so I've been trying to work around it. Like some foods, I can eat small amounts without an allergy attack so I've been watching how much I eat of those. And thankfully, my folks help a lot when we really need it so food doesn't tend to be too much of an issue cause they buy in bulk and just randomly drop stuff off. ( Or shove a huge bag full at me when I swing over XD )
Oh, good luck with the interview! Fingers crossed. :)
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Yeah, but our town is small so those with gluten allergies/intolerances aren't very many. They'd have to get enough requests for a gluten-free one sent in for the church to do it. The other church does kindness week where a couple of the followers gets $100 and they'll go around town and buy people's groceries for them. *^*
Not a problem. I'm sure you'll do really well. :)
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Yeah, I'll probably just order online or have family grab stuff when they go to the city since they go that way more then we do. *^*
It's take the whole box here. I hear that a lot of folks took very little even when they needed it so they do the full box so they wouldn't feel bad about taking something.
No problem. *^* Oh, I'm sure you'll do okay!! :)
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Yeah, makes it easier anyway. And my sister doesn't mind at all grabbing stuff we need.
NP. Sorry you're feeling run down atm, hope you feel better soon. Are you doing alright otherwise? Maybe vitamins might help.
I went shopping with my sister and she got me lots of gluten-free stuff to snack on plus a really cute cup. While I bought what I really needed. Other than that, nope! I'm not gonna do anything else so I can be lazy since I need to rest a bit. Plus, I'm having to take a ton of allergy pills to get the rash cleared up from yesterday so I've been really sleepy anyway. *^*;; My hubs is supposedly going to sleep out in the camper tonight with kiddo since they both want to go "camping" but we can't go to the lake just yet. I have a feeling we'll be camping out a lot this summer. I already bought several of the emergency travel pill bottles so I can have allergy pills with me at all times this year cause so far I've had several really bad reactions. And it's not fun to suddenly realize you're covered in a rash and having trouble breathing.
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Glad to hear you're doing okay. :) Sounds like a good plan there!
Yeah, she and my mom moved to town a few years back when they heard I was going to have kiddo since my mom was grandbaby crazed. XD
I suppose so? I can't really enjoy it since I have to avoid the poison ivy/sumac/oak or I'll have to go to the doctor asap so I can't even join in on the nature walks. Tends to be a bit boring if you can't even step outside. It kind of is a bit early, they haven't even opened the park yet (it'll open soonish when school lets out in a week or so) *^*
I'm trying to be careful. It's been super windy so I've been taking a LOT of allergy pills and so far my face hasn't swelled again like a few days ago.
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Yeah, they try to be helpful but they do pick on me a lot. Lol Yes, he does. (Though when my mom swings by the first thing he asks her are "where the toys?") XD I wish that would help me but I'm so allergic to them that I get it from the oils in the air and it closes my throat up. *^*;
Oh, get local honey and take a spoon full a day! It'll help decrease pollen allergies. It's an old method but it helps a lot. :) Well, out of everyone I know who has had it, a few has some allergies now where they didn't before and others now have way worse pollen allergies so it wouldn't surprise me if it weakens the immunity system that badly? Maybe they just haven't seen a connection to it yet cause if it can cause food allergies then pollen allergies are a step back from that.
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Yeah, there tends to be less support for a lot of people. It's a bit sad to see when someone is struggling and I can't help.
Yeah... I don't know? I've never tried that to be honest. I really kind of want to try that now.. If it does work that'd let me go on hikes again and that's what I miss most about camping. *^* I'd be okay with that! I walk slowly anyway cause my breathing is crud, to begin with, if it helps that'd be awesome.
Could be! Pollen has also been way higher this year too so it could be a seasonal thing. I know mine has been way worse so has my folks' allergies. Like mom had to get a few allergy shots this year already and my sister's been fighting hers.
Thank you! I was really liking the blue-purple combo. *^*
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: It's def worth a try so I'll look into it for sure. Well, if I'm inside the tent (or camper if we get it going) it should be fine to take it off? It'd be a barrier to it since the tent has the waterproofing so the oils don't make it in and it's mainly where I stay when we go camping anyway so I can avoid it as much as possible. I think the mask would just give me a better chance of enjoying nature again. *^* Yeah, things have been growing much more wild here for sure.
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: Yeah. I'll look into that! I carry rubbing alcohol to clean up with in case I get into it since it removes most of the oils so I might be able to clean the outside of the masks and switch them out as they dry. I'll just have to test it out and see cause I can't find anything about it and allergies to poisoned plants... *^*;
Head In The Clouds~ (Ping Please!)
@Totalanimefan: I can hope so! I'm gonna grab a few before we go camping this summer and put them in the camping gear. *^*
Will do!! I'll probably ask my hubs to grab some in-store if he can. :)
Please ping!! I'm a busy mom and tend to get lost~
