Good evening…
Ahh! I still have to get the retiring Exclusives from the Wish Factory and see if I have any Superbed Boxes to get that Starburst Cloud Bed because I definitely don’t have it/need it!!
I’m going to be honest, I am not really excited about anything on the August calendar. I am trying to figure out a way to take a little break in there somewhere because I am burnt out, again. I miss the old days when there wasn’t so much to do all the time…..
XO,
Otterkinz

Good Morning All !
Otterkinz.. sorry you are struggling… Check your mailbox ! Hopefully you can find some time coming up to take a break… and take care of yourself.
moms… thanks for all of the code reminders ! Hope you have a fun weekend !
Maybe your moms scooting can be repaired without too much trouble… she must be lost without though… Good luck with ds’s car issue ! If it isn’t one thing it’s another !
dee… what’s cooking this weekend… I’m kind of tired of everything.. will be heading to grocery store and hope I can get some inspiration. Sometmes
I really miss not having a grill… summer is passing so quickly and have had any grilled steaks or burgers… I guess I will have to invite myself to my sister’s house and offer to bring the food… that might work.
Sheba… Enjoy your company as well ! Hopefully the weather is cooperating for everyone who has outdoor plans.
I have heard from himself almost everyday this week ! So nice to chat with him but I’m guessing he is very bored !! LOL
I bought myself a Kindle and looking forward to getting started …
Hey to April cmpets and all those I missed !
Have a nice day !

Good morning! My sis & fam left this morning!
Otter – I hope you are able to find the right balance. Webkinz should be fun and not stressful, but I can so relate with too much to do at times!
One thing that I did the past two weeks when I heard that things were retiring was to make a spreadsheet (handwritten) of my priorities. I knew that I wanted to go to KA to try for the retiring items there. I have at least one of everything, but I’m hoping for another pair or two of Lab Goggles (from the sandbox). So far, 8 accounts have NOT received them and one of the accounts only got one item out of three chances. Discouraging. Anyway, I have two more accounts with recess coming up on Sunday, so crossing my fingers. I have one Starburst Cloud Bed on my account and one on my dd’s. I did an inventory of all my superbeds and have quite a few to collect. I also researched what year each bed was introduced. So I think that I will try to obtain all the superbeds that came out in 2010 that I don’t already have. But fortunately, I don’t have to do all of that before August 1st. The hard work is done.
Another thing that I did this week was take a screenshot of my main WW house. It is so huge now and I am starting to get lost. It took several pages to document it. Because I’ve been “managing” ten accounts, I haven’t really done a good job of playing on my own account. I’m trying to scale down on the extra’s and focus on just a few.
NEXT has made my life so much busier, too, but I try to do the bare minimum there. I haven’t quite gotten to the point of skipping seasons, but I did consider skipping this time around.
I could go on and on, but……..I’ll spare you all! LOL!

gaga – do you not have a grill?
they sell little ones…..like for camping folk
and i will watch diners drives and dives and pioneer woman for inspiration
currently have pumas pasta chicken thing in oven.
that is a very good recipe and easy to halve.
freezes well
and lots of recipes for two out there on the net……i have a hard time figuring out what i am hankering for…….unless it is bona fide pizza or chinese or something like that

gaga – pro tip if you are reading on kindle 1. get a library card if you do not have one & learn how to access the library on your phone so you can read for free on your kindle & 2. subscribe to the bookbub.com bargains email for a daily list of kindle book deals – they have a LOT of free books that have good ratings (this book was on today’s email https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09QJZCVLN?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tkin_0&storeType=ebooks&qid=1690683322&sr=8-1)

Good Morning !
dee.. I don’t have a grill.. mostly because my fear about Mickey and family setting up a nest in it… happened once before and it totally freaked me out…
I decided to make a meatloaf and will some some egg salad for sandwiches..
the book looks very interesting…
moms.. Thanks for the Kindle tips.. I had already set up my library card and checked out my first book and sent it to my kindle. They had no cases at Best Buy so will deliver one on Tuesday… Will check out the link you posted for daily list… Anxious to get started .. Sounds like you have been really busy with your guests ! Smoked pork sounds really delicious !
Enjoy the rest of your visit with guests..
Sheba… You are very organized with spreadsheets ! Hopefully you can win the goggles today at the Academy…
Hope you had a great time with your sister and her family…
Did not find any flowers or slag this morning in NEXT but did solve the treasure chest… 100 kc… disappointing…would rather receive a prize !

Hello, all!
Omg! I am cutting it close! I thought I would be able to go to recess today, but it is tomorrow! I thought that I had one day leeway before the items retired. Not sure how I miscalculated!
Gaga – I did get flowers on my one account today. But didn’t take the time for the other account.
Dee – I’ll have to check out that recipe.
Moms – It’s amazing how we rise to the task when there is a lot going on. I always liked when my kids had their friends over.

Last day of the month… Where is this summer going ? So fast.
moms… I hope your household settles down after today ! Sounds like you have had a busy but fun weekend !
dee.. Hope you are able to get fishing tomorrow ! New NEXT today.. not sure but seems to have a glitch in one of the activities.. wondering if you are having the same problem… spending 10 tokens at arcade…bought ten…spent them… No points given… I went back and re purchased another item… No points !! Any suggestions ?
Sheba.. Hopefully you get the items you are able to get your recess items today ! Flowers are readily available today in NEXT !
Looking forward to upcoming new challenges in WW !
Hope to get the new prizes in Wacky Week !
cmpets.. I hope you are settling back in at home !
April.. How are you and Stella doing ? I bet you are anxious for upcoming football season to start… I know I am and looking forward to the Hall of Fame game on Thursday.
Weather here picture perfect ! No sightings of Castro the golden…has been weeks.. I am out twice a day and would have thought I would have run into them out walking…Now that I think about… have not seen too many dogs out walking past couple of weeks..
Continuing to hear from himself almost everyday.. He is still getting his place organized and final cleaning on house they all just vacated… He was left with most of the work because the other kids had packed up and left couple weeks ago… He starts work in 2 weeks so I am sure won’t hear much after that ! Hoping to get down for his birthday as he is not scheduled to come home until Thanksgiving.
Hope you all enjoy the day !

Good Morning-
At the Library today. Needed a quiet space to focus. Hard to be temporarily staying in places/with people.
DD flies in tomorrow morning. So excited to see her, this is the longest we have ever gone without seeing each other-4 months. She is on her drive back to Florida currently. Happy she had a good summer, even without the internships working out.
Need to send off more resumes today. The next week and a half are busy running her back and forth places, only have 1 car here/ Once she flies back to school, I will be on full job search mode again.
moms- I may need your banana pudding recipe, I love it, but have never made it myself.
dee-I saved the enchilada orzo recipe for when we have our own stuff again.
gaga-Have not been on Next yet, but thanks for the tip, now I know what needs to be done for that one. Nice that himself is reaching out while he has time. You are very generous, and at the very least, it’s good for him to appreciate your special relationship.
qos-Hoping you get the prizes you need. I hardly ever do school, so no idea what prizes there even are for it.
otter-Agree on how much time ww can take up. I have been limiting my time as I was spending too much time doing stuff, and real life needs to take precedence for now.
Anyone drink/make sweet tea? I tried a recipe, but it did not come out the same as when we have it in the south. I am not a sweets person, and my friends are all shocked I like it, but I do, just can’t have it often.
Hi to anyone I missed!
Time to go focus ????

Good afternoon!
Eep! Last day of July–what?!?
gaga, thank you SO much for the mail and your kind words!! I am so very grateful to you for your generosity in sending me the retiring Superbed and taking that worry/stress away about it! <3 I just sent you some other retiring stuff in return… I hope those are things you wanted or needed, but if not, feel free to send them to someone else should they need them! And also if there is anything specific you are looking for right now (or ever) just let me know!
Queen of Sheba, you have mail!! I wanted to pay it forward since gaga helped me! π
Hi dee! Hi moms!
cmpets, I appreciate you putting in your two cents and letting me know I am not the only one feeling this way! I have been trying to limit myself, too, but then it seems like I just end up getting myself into jams then, which is so frustrating and defeating. I am trying so hard to find a good balance, but nothing seems to be working! Alright–now go focus!!!
Okey-dokey all! Time for me to hop off the computer for a little while!
XO,
Otterkinz

July 31, 2023 @ 3:11 pm
Ho! Ho! Ho! I did hear sleigh bells!
A big thank you to Secret Santa for a cool Christmas in July gift! Very appreciative! ♥
Gaga – No success at the KA today! But now I can take a break from classes! Whew!
Otter – Thank you so much for the gifts! ♥ It makes up for not getting those items from the KA recess!
Moms – Oh my goodness! I thought that I made southern tea by using 1 cup of sugar to 4 quarts (aka 1 gallon)! And now we have cut the sugar down to 1/2 cup to 4 quarts! Yet, my dh made tea yesterday and I had to add my store bought sweet tea to it because it wasn’t sweet enough. LOL! Maybe 3/4 cup of sugar to a gallon would be the right amount for me.
37 momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,
July 31, 2023 @ 3:48 pm
qos – restaurants will use the 1 cup to 2 quarts usually – my dh drinks 1/2 sweet, so i don’t make it like that anymore, but i do know the “southern sweet tea” ratio is usually 1:2 – it’s a lot of sugar!

cmp (or whomever)
that orzo enchilada thing
i use the hot encilada sauce as we like flavorful things
and this time, i did two cans of black beans and a heavy one cup of orzo. I used water in place of broth.
dh said it was really good……….versus good!
you can eat it in a bowl, make nachos out of it, or put it in them little street taco tortillas with fixins!
there was none left to freeze

i quit drinking it as black tea is not good for kidneys……..green tea is
42 Queen of Sheba (WWID: Royalmajesty) said,
July 31, 2023 @ 5:18 pm
Dee – Question about the Enchilada Orzo recipe……
I read a comment that you need to double the recipe if serving 4 people (with exception of the orzo). Yet the recipe says that it yields six servings. You say that you didn’t have any left to freeze. How many servings do you think it is geared for? Just trying to figure out if I should double or not (for 4 people, for example).
43 Queen of Sheba (WWID: Royalmajesty) said,
July 31, 2023 @ 5:24 pm
And I’m assuming if it is truly geared for 6 servings that someone was really hungry in your family! LOL!
This whole serving thing has me confused. My dh was in charge of a meal yesterday for company. He told me he had plenty of food. Yet it didn’t look like enough to me and to be honest….it wasn’t. Everyone took moderate servings and I took 1/2 of what I would have taken had there been more. Serving size was 4 1/2. But it looked like 2 servings to me. Thankfully, we had a side dish to go along with it. We had 5 people. I would have doubled the recipe. I’m the type that likes to have leftover.
44 dee said,
July 31, 2023 @ 5:44 pm
honestly sheba, i do not read the words…………pretty much like here!
but in my opinion, it makes enough at least for six people.
if you made this for you and your dh…………… i ate three servings (real ones..meaning half cup) and my dh ate two (jethro bodine size meaning at least a cup)
i only ate three as it was so stinkin good. usually i have a serving (big) leftover to freeze………..but dh really liked it………..so poof!
kind of surprised me as he is a must have meat type guy
if you follow the recipe with my tips…………it is enough
45 dee said,
July 31, 2023 @ 5:46 pm
and cheap and yummy!
makes me want more……………just cuz we are a wee bit burnt out, so i have more to freeze!
but it made me wonder how it would be as a soup!
46 Queen of Sheba (WWID: Royalmajesty) said,
July 31, 2023 @ 5:54 pm
As far as opening the material packs for the daily season requirement…..I decided to put a whole bunch of them in my baby’s room. Every time I give the rattle it reminds me to open a material pack. You don’t know how many times I’ve almost forgotten to do that!
47 Queen of Sheba (WWID: Royalmajesty) said,
