    I have gone crossed eyed more times than I can count staring into that Dang googly eye. I have definitely wanted to throw it across the yard a few times.

    So the new test kit came in…. Y’all this CYA testing, WHEW. I’m getting 40!! I did the new reagents first, then old reagents, and then to compare I put the old reagents in the old test tube… 40,40,70. 🤯

    Day 5! We’re not 100% yet, but I can actually see the print on the vinyl in the deep end!
