That's what I got too! Consider it a compliment!

I've never been able to get through "I can see clearly now" without bursting into tears. I don't totally understand why because it's such a happy song! Maybe it's just the perpetual yearning to get to that place, to finally be after the rain. 💔

It's more polite to "ghost" at a party than to make a big fuss about leaving.

Oh great! Would love to see your photo album/hear favorite recs when you're back. The U there has an English instruction bachelor program so we are beginning our college tour for F on this trip too...

Yes! I haven't felt this energized and inspired in months!

Opinion: The Country is Still Anxious About Affordability. For Older Adults, This is Nothing New. "The city can minimize emergency housing and long-term care costs by investing in organizations that help older adults access the benefits they're entitled to."
