Little fluffy clouds, the most beautiful skies, they were beautiful, you don't see that now. Maybe in the desert

Some really neato clouds I bet, if you eat the right cacti. Sorta Bob Ross x Peter Max.

Had a non-migraine day finally (so far). So, I drove around today until I was able to find a store (Walmart in case anyone is in similar need) that actually had a box of the new Ghostbusters cereal and fruity cereal (Fruity Pebbles essentially) flavored kit kats.
All the damn supermarkets here suck and carry nothing good. Still struck out out of about 5 or 6 stores in finding anyone carrying Monster Mash cerral, the 50th anniversary celebration of General Mills' monster cereals (of which BooBerry is best).
Yes, I feel accomplished getting that GB cereal.
Also, Ben & Jerry's is temporarily on my shit list for not supplying any of there nearby to me scoop shops with the flavor I really wanted to try and now discontinuing said flavor under the bs guise that marshmallow sky is somehow needing seasonal limiting. Marshmallow in all forms is excellent in all seasons.

Yes, only the spring marshmallows can be used. After that, they turn into nougat.

Ooh that sounds good too. I made nougat twice. Once with rose flower as the flavoring to mimic a French product I had and loved. The second time I experimented with using lilac simple syrup to try and flavor it, but sadly the flavor didnt come through. But at least it wasn't no good nougat. Still tasted nice.
Perhaps next summer Marshmallow Sky will return near me. Part or me wanted to eat it because its blue (I think from the description) and blue things are yummy.

Good job on the shades, Bluey!
Today, I did some things I have been avoiding and making excuses not to do, as I awaited a call from the hospital to go pick up my friend that I had dropped off for a procedure. It involved dust...sweeping off my balcony, which has a stucco floor that has recesses that get filled with fine dust and tiny black soot from the local fires of late. I wore my regular face mask (with carbon filter, what's a little more carbon, eh?) and my new broom (Costco $8.99 special-two brooms and a dustpan-SCORE!) and I really don't exercise my middle section. My back got tired partway through, but I stretched and continued. No call, yet. I washed my car windshield again, since it was all smeary from the fast swipe I gave it last night. No call. I unloaded the dishwasher. (Three minutes, max.) I swept out the one car garage. (Miracle!) No call. I sprayed the possibly mega toxic but old Raid bug spray (kills bugs for a year) with the really weird dispensing built in (no straw down into the liquid death, so you have to tip the bottle at a ridiculous angle, which I couldn't remember) and then I was a mess, so I went in to clean up for the second time today. The call came after that.
I don't accomplish this kind of outside work very often. It really is insignificant because other people handle this stuff regularly.

If it helps, I do not feel like I'm physically able enough to accomplish much housework as regularly as I'd like and seems common for more able bodied people to do. Hope that phone call went alright. Is the ash present every day from the fires? That must be a drag. My recent accomplishment was learning the difference between BR30 and PAR30 flood style light bulbs to figure out what to order and spray painting rust protection paint on an outdoor table. So much excitement, I could hardly contain myself. But it did feel a bit satisfying to make that metal table look decent and be protected better. Plus better and cheaper to get a can of spray paint then buying a new table.

I saw a squirrel today burying nuts or acorns. It was really cute seeing it dif and then tamp the ground down with its tiny paws.

Squirrels are quite entertaining. Some of their acrobatic tree maneuvers amaze me.

Vermin. Grey squirrels, that is.
