B remembers riding that. And we literally just found this in the attic in a box from his grandmother.

aw, that's sweet! I hope it is a beautiful day for you and the happy couple.

It's humorous and (I'm told) pretty accurate on a lot of the little details.

We've been enjoying BOOTS on Netflix - even the half of us who endured boot camp.

New levels of old person boring achieved: used my CVS coupon from getting my vaccines towards buying fiber supplements.

I am SHOCKED by the price every time I get one.

So glad to hear your mom is recovering! I hope you have had a chance to get some rest yourself!

Pancreatic cancer is so awful - rarely any early symptoms and takes people way too young. RIP D'Angelo

We have half a 7x7 shed of wood scraps and random hardware, and that is just the outside stuff

The biggest test to our marriage for our eventual move is going to be my husband's inability to let go of every tiny scap that could potentially be useful for some hypothetical situation in the future. 🙄

Oh, figs are great, but you really have to stay on top of them or they get out of control very quickly!

The one and only one. If we had several, I would have gladly shared

To clarify, they didn't take the whole tree from the ground, but I don't plan to dig it up when we move. A pot in a fenced yard is clearly the way to go

The worst part - I think it happened while we went to vote.

We have a tiny lemon tree in our yard, and we've been nurturing the one lemon for months. Somebody stole it today. This makes me so sad and so ready to leave this neighborhood.

We're in newer construction. I only used the light blanket over the sheet in my old house

We have a seersucker quilt that we use in summer, but I add the light cotton blanket on top that. I'm also right under the vent, though.

I know people who love blended or microfiber sheets. I just don't like the feel of them personally. And my PJ pants stick to them

I love the weight of a blanket or quilt even in summer. B thinks I'm nuts with my folded in half cotton blanket over me all summer.

maybe they changed somewhere along the line? The last act listing says cotton/poly

Fen is adorably collapsible. 😍

unpopular opinion, but I will only use 100% cotton sheets, so these never interested me.

Oh, I can still taste that stuff!

Monkey running loose around rural SC is caught … with a cup of hot coffee A quick-thinking town clerk in Eutawville, SC, helped catch an escaped spider monkey with a cup of coffee.

This is 100% how you catch me if I'm running amok. www.postandcourier.com/news/escaped...

I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you!

B says it's rare for top comedians to hold back at those types of events because they don't have anything to lose and most won't even be paying attention.

My mom was lucky in that both of us were in the program at the same time. I have vivid memories of meals at the Hut - the red plastic cups, the Ms. PacMan game, the salad bar all under dim stained glass fixtures.

Funny story from B's post-anesthesia half-coherent phase:
B: I want a deep dish pizza....From Pizza Hut!
Me: A pan pizza? Ok, I can do that for you. I'll order you a pizza
B: Do I get a star for my BOOK-IT Button?
Me: LOL No, because you didn't do your reading
