Not exactly sure.
Is allergy season around again? I’m stuffed up and have sinus pressure. Positive about these is it’s a mini diet. I lose my appetite during them. In the last 36 hours I’ve had a plain bagel, some pea and cheese salad and one of those Robin eggs. I made myself eat all of that also as I had no appetite at all.

I woke up with my ears and nose plugged this morning, cleared up by midday. The fluctuating weather doesn't help.

Several patches of timber/forest floor plants or weeds never died off and have been green all winter so perhaps there's something to that.

Waded into the ocean to play lifeguard over 7 and 5 year old grandnieces. Was not a planned thing but their mom was sort of distracted taking pics of their dad playing volleyball so I waded in without really being prepped.. Forgot the Kindle was in the bag. Mostly stayed in waste deep. Had a little shoulder bag with me. Forgot Kindle reader was in it. Got just wet enough to funk it out. It's soaking in a bag of rice now. Figure it's 50/50 to come out alive. Expensive ocean frolic.

Phone did somewhat better. It messaged me that it detected water in the USB port. Well, yup. :rolleyes:

On the radio this morning it was mentioned that there is already some allergens in the air.

Pea and cheese salad?

My wife dropped her phone in the toilet 3 times and it came back every time. Hopefully, you’ll have good luck too.

THE EGGS, that is what this is missing. I couldn’t place it but no eggs. My mom used velvetta cheese and this has more of a soft American in it.
I don't make it myself, but there is a gal in our Sunday lunch group that makes a really good one, and I'm always willing to take some of the extra home with me. ;)

Just saw this from CNET-- probably too late for you to use any of it.

Don't have a fan so not really an option. Thanks, though, good for future reference if it happens at home. I have a bunch of silicone bead packs I bought a long time ago to try and remove mildew odor from some 60 year old auto brochures.

In process of checking my phone, it's okay now, I found the back had partly peeled loose after I took it out of the otter box. Guess it didn't really get wet much or it would have been toast. Think years of sticking it in my rear pocket had bent it just enough to warp the back. Old Galaxy 10s so probably time to shop for new but all the deals require upgrading to a plan I don't need.

If you're buying through Verizon...don't. Go to Best Buy. Similar price after avoiding plan upgrades and the phones are normal sized. You also get much better uppot service with BB.

That must be one tiny omelet...
