Yes!!!! I remember distinctly the aftermath that of not doing that one time (and basically collapsing on top of the bed) and waking up the next day to the stench. And the repeat laundry cycles (so many quarters!!!) for the bedding & clothes.

They were both teachers so kids would bring them in for them all the time- especially for my mom. Between that and all the church/choir/girls scouts/groups- it was everywhere. Like a bad MLM that tasted good till you got sick of it. 🤣🤣🤣

Yes!! we had both going at once for a while and I remember thinking it was like a chain letter and terrible luck would befall the family and our descendants if we didn’t keep it going till dad “accidentally” (on purposely) knocked one into the garbage. 🤣 and then explained we didn’t HAVE to do it.

Omg I grew up in Amish country and we always had one of those things going. And then everyone would get sick of it and it would get chucked until someone would share a starter a few months later and lather-rinse-repeat.

I distinctly remember when T learned that and he wouldn’t even get to the end of the phrase… he’d sing that part and that just start cackling. Which I remember both fondly and also with the “omg please stop” feelings. 🤣

So I’ll call the answering service tomorrow, and then maybe I’ll get a call back from the perpetually annoyed sounding tech, but not the vet. And it will lack all the crucial info so I’ll be told “they’ll have her call” and she won’t and ….lather rinse repeat.
