When the walls fell.

I know this goes against the spirit of … Bachelor frog meme?

But that was a very effective way my mom suggested to combat my ache. Every night I’d take my fresh t-shirt for the next day and put it over my pillow case. It meant that my face was always getting a fresh pillowcase without me needing to have 75 pillowcases to wash for every day.

I did also try using the shirt at the end of the day (because when my ache got bad I’d have blood spots and stuff on my shirts and couldn’t wear them) but it didn’t feel as clean and nice, so I’d just occasionally put a shirt on the pillow and then if it was soiled that first night id wear a different shirt and leave that one on the pillow for another day or 2.

Fresh pillow cases and sheets are a magical thing.

Be the change you want to see, and leave.

Lol.

This reminds me of a story my mom told me over the holidays about buying a fancy sweater at Sears one fall. By mid winter the zipper had broken and she went back to Sears but they didn’t have a replacement, and she didn’t want a refund. They eventually agreed to have her take it to the tailor in the mall for them to replace it, and they would cover the receipt. She did and they did.

Blew my mind. If I honestly thought I could contact Maytag or Bosch and actually get someone on the phone to send me a replacement knob, I might bother. But I’ve moved past “try to contact the company with a reasonable concern” a long time ago. Which is what they hope for and why they make it time consuming and pointless. I’ll take the path of least resistance.

If home Depot goes out of business because of all the stolen knobs, I’ll cry myself into Rona every day (I mean that, I hate Rona and I use HD daily)

If the knob on your stove breaks while it’s still new enough to be sold on the floor of a Home Depot? Yeah, the theft wasn’t by the guy who took the knob.
