I was in Germany for Thanksgiving, hanging in a beachfront town along the Baltic Sea. We even saw wild swans.
It’s not a bad as it sounds. 😉

A scenario for anyone that doesn’t get the man versus bear consensus: you MUST choose a woman you care about (grandmother, mother, sister, daughter, aunt, cousin, niece, etc.) and you MUST choose if she meets a strange man or a wild bear.
If you still don’t get it, then you likely can’t be taught.

Dessert was a two-layer pumpkin cheesecake: the bottom is plain cheesecake, the top is cheesecake mixed with seasoned pumpkin purée.

Went out for coffee at 6:00 because I’m a circadian lark and the pooch was restless.
I sipped my mocha, while we gazed at holiday lights in Chattanooga’s city center.

I found a sweet spot with my office setup - by trial and error, and it’s been good all around. Like you, I mouse left, but now ya got me wondering what might happen if I swapped over. 🤔
