"It was a mistake to let a family of Ukrainian refugees live in my parents’ homewhich reminds me that it was also a mistake to join to board of a horse rescue"

One of the truest of all truisms is that "no good deed goes unpunished." How are you going to get rid of the Ukranians? My own family is from that part of the world and I know from experience how opaque and hard to deal with they are. I'm glad you got rid of the fake eyelashes. You can always go back to painting. If you do, post some here!
