Cathy, that is kinda concerning if dh is giving out phone number and address, isn't it? There's no real solution except maybe to go behind him "unsubscribing" to everything. (((HUGS)))
I get a lot of spam calls AND a lot of spam emails, partly because dh was signed up for so much-- some political websites and of course, his mail-order OTC meds and supplements. I have been trying to unsubscribe to a few things every day. But I can't blame dh for all of it -- I have bought things online that resulted in multiple emails for myself also.
Well -- tree 1, Lucy 0... BUT -- I have to also say, in the second match of the day -- Laundry 0, Lucy 1.
All my clothes are now hanging to dry AND -- are y'all sitting down? I turned all my clothes hangers and removed the items I apparently have not worn since 2020. 2020??? That is hard to believe, but that's what the sticky note in the closet says.
Surprisingly, there were not a HUGE number of things I had not worn. But there are other things I don't remember wearing, so 2020 is probably right. LOL.
I have towels in the washer now, and I forgot to put underwear in there! I usually wash towels and underwear together.
I also need to change sheets, but I think that will wait until tomorrow.
Also -- I made a decision to throw away a dish towel. It was used to wipe up grease from the ham. Ugh. It smells SOOO bad. I was afraid to even wash it with the other towels! I realize I use the same towels over and over, so I don't think one less will make that much difference.
Ooops -- I also forgot to put the towels that hang on the oven door in the washer. My memory has been a mess today. I started into the drug store, got to the door, didn't have my wallet... back to the car... back inside... remembered I had a UPS drop off box... back to the car...
I did not lie down, either. So that's a win for me.
DSISIL came over with a letter that had dh's name on it but went to their address. After I opened it, I realized the name was like this:
DH first name DH middle name DBIL first name
DBIL address
It was from College Town, looked like an alumni association letter head on the return address, but it turned out to be something wanting us to sell the condo, telling us how much they were going for these days.
I'm just going to ignore it. Pretty sure dbil isn't ready to sell, and I'm not going to suggest selling until at least after dgd starts college. If neither of my grands want to go there, then I think I will be ready to get rid of it. This year, I ended up owing dbil some money for the first time when we balanced out the tickets against the condo fees.
My back hurts after doing the laundry and closet. I may have to settle into the recliner for a bit.
