Busy day even with 2 extra hours

[susandennis]

So with no swimming, I have two extra hours today but not enough time. The math on that eludes me.

Zappos granted me return on the Uggs. They no longer have the model but I found it on another site and it said clearly "Pretreated to repel water and stains". The Zappos note said "Unfortunately not many people know that some Uggs were not made to get wet, and these are one of those pairs." Seems to me, knowing that, they should maybe call it out on the boot description...

But, anyway, I'll get my money back so I'm not at all unhappy. I did have to go box shopping down in the recycling dumpsters. Found one, packaged them up and returned them to the garage and into the UPS Out box.

A fairly important piece broke off my airfryer today. Pisses me off. The piece is on the basket part which is not covered by warranty. Too late for Amazon return. I think it will still work ok. At least I hope so. I'm now too attached to the damn thing to give it up.

I did two loads of laundry and stripped the bed. I have one sheet that is perfect (I only use a fitted sheet, no top one). Every time I put it on I think 'I need to order another one of these.' Today I went from sheet putting on to sheet ordering. Finally! I have two sheets that need to retire (aka become doll legs/dresses/accouterments). And I remembered to search for a coupon and found one that worked - 15% off!

At one point, this morning, snow was predicted for tonight again but that's all gone now and it looks like swimming will resume tomorrow. Whew.

After the snow stopped, I did get two dolls done. And now, I need to go fold all that laundry.

Oh no! Hope the air fryer still works... I was going to tell you about our experiment last night: Fried Ravioli. It turned out *so well*! We used this recipe (http://wineladycooks.com/2016/12/fried-ravioli-air-fryer-recipe/) with some ravioli we picked up at PCC. We followed the basic method from this recipe with some tweaks to the crumb mix (less cheese and only dried basil) and we didn't spritz them with cooking spray, but they didn't need it. They really did turn out beautifully... I can't wait to make them again!

You'll have a sheet to break in!

I do the same thing with sheets, only remember I want another like it (or need to replace one) when I am making the bed

I'm sure you probably have a post somewhere explaining it, but since I'm new, what is the story with the dolls?

[susandennis]

I'm not sure how much detail you want but basically, I make the dolls (and the bears) and give them to the <a hef="https://babybankofseattle.org/ target=_blank>Seattle Baby Bank</a> who, in turn, gives them to children in crisis. As I finish each one, I snap their picture and add it to my journal. I deliver once a month and grab group shots before they leave. Is this what you were wanting to know? If not, question me back! I'm happy to answer anything anytime.

That's all I wanted to know! I figured they were for some sort of cause, I was just wondering what it was. Kudos for doing that!
