Looks like soap operas are back to being filmed...and it's interesting.

All multi-camera single take scenes so the actors aren't in the same space at the same time, and any scenes with multiple people, they're standing far apart, and I think a 'stand-in' for a kissing scene was a mannequin.

Not exactly sure.
Got a copy of my birth certificate today. Need it for the truID I have to get. May actually have one but now I know I do. Looking at it and I see the county register (recorder) had to sign it. Glanced and thought it looked like my last name, it was so I look closer and it was my grandpas sister who never got married. She lived until I was about 17. Wish my mean grandma would have not made family fights so I could have met her. My grandpa died 21 years before I was born.

did not know she was ever the county recorder.

TWICE you come over here without saying hi. I see how it is.

Also I hope you enjoyed the cluster of 151 around Fairfax right now. Hopefully 80th street is back open now. My in-laws live right over there and it SUCKED getting there last week.
Ummm...3 times. But in my defense, I never actually made it to CR.
First time was to Vinton, then we got caught by the storm halfway to Fairfax. After the storm passed, it took us ~2 hours to get to Fairfax.We never made our connection there because no power & no cell service, so we finally headed home. Fairfax was a total disaster. Some wonderful people in a dark corner bar let me use their restroom. All the other businesses were locked up by the time we got to town. I will be eternally grateful to them. ;)
Second time was to Vinton & home. We had to make the third trip because the guy's wife didn't want to clean out the RV until he had cash in hand. Kinda pissed us off, but we decided that at least it got us out of the house a few times.

So - next time we head that way I'll see what we can do. :D

When hell breaks loose, the only business that survives is the bar.

When you empty the dishwasher, do you completely empty it and then load the current dirty dishes or do you do a rack, load the dirty dishes in that rack and then empty the other and load the other. I completely empty and then load. My wife does it rack by rack and I think it’s odd. Who is the odd dishwasher person?

Her. Especially if she unloads/reloads the top rack first.

Fully empty before adding anything. To much chance for cross contamination if you don't.

Your wife is the odd one concerning the dishwasher, empty then refill.

Nope. If there are a lot of dirty dishes, I pull out and empty the bottom rack, then fill with dirty. Next pull out and empty the top rack, then refill. Glasses (top rack) are going in the cupboard just above the dishwasher, so it's quicker anyway. There's no cross-contamination or drips on clean dishes this way.

Well, you have me nervous now. That would be about 22 miles from the farm. Going up to mow tomorrow. Heard Forest City got 2.5 inches. I would take that for the high end. Don't need it to get too wet now.

My oldest turned 20 today. That may make me too old to take these.

Good grief it feels like a Sunday night to me.

Doesn't really matter, working tomorrow and Monday
