Wow MM! What a story. The mirror looks amazing though I love the orange lamps
My complaint is I can't get two of my important medications because there's a national shortage. How? Why? My therapist said that the US gets most medications from China, and since China is so... loose, with regulations on things there's a high possibility that the latest batches of these medicines were compromised in some way. There's a shortage on Ozempic and some other diabetes meds too, and people are putting blame on the people who are using it for weight loss, when in reality it's closer to the bad batch idea. And really, the blame goes on the rich no doubt white men in charge of the whole process. Ugh.
Another thing, everything is still so expensive. "They" say that inflation is coming down but at the same time that cargo ship tipped over and tons of product was lost or unusable. I don't see how both can be true and I certainly don't see prices falling. I used to get the occasional bag of Doritos but it's over $5 from Walmart! I'm not paying that much for chips. The Walmart version doesn't taste the same
