I told you about Merida munching on an ink pen in the middle of a spare bedroom. Reading online how to get the stains out of the carpet, I found that alcohol is recommended. Soak the spots with rubbing alcohol for 30 minutes, blah blah blah…
Have y’all tried finding rubbing alcohol since the pandemic started? Evidently, everyone is trying to make their own hand sanitizer — since you still can’t find that either — and it’s almost as hot a commodity as toilet paper.
I have a partial bottle that I’ve been protecting that was leftover from a time we used it for a painting technique about a year ago. One bottle exactly like I have is now $20 bucks on Amazon. I think I paid less than a dollar for bottles back then! Talk about taking advantage of a bad situation.
Here I go… hoping I have no health related need for rubbing alcohol because I’m about to dump it on the carpet. And if that’s not scary enough, you thought coronavirus testing was done with a nasal swab…
Rainy day here so I’m stuck inside cleaning carpet, doing laundry and eating comfort food. Have a fabulous last day of the weekend, y’all. 🙂
TIL – (today I learned): The word “idiot” once specifically referred to somebody with the mental age of a 2 year-old. “Imbecile” referred to somebody with the mental age of a 3 to 7 year-old, and “moron” referred to somebody with the mental age of a 7 to 10 year-old. Read about it here…
