That’s pretty smart! Would be a good travel size. I like the nostalgia of a cookie tin but yeah, not very portable.

Don’t forget to pick up a tin of cookies at the dollar store when you get your kit. You get snacks and a place to store your sewing supplies that is needle-poke-proof.

They didn’t get their start shooting college students!

A bunch

Next week it is then!

37 was one of my better years. I had disposable income to go do whatever stupid hijinks I could think of. I did start seeing less of my friends who had started families. But I also switched jobs to do new interesting things. We did lots of concerts, community events, I took photography classes. It was great. I enjoyed my thirties.

My forties have been very rough though. And that could just be from coincidence of life events happening. I’m actually looking forward to 50. I am hoping my 50s are like my 30s, just a tad slower. And my friends are coming back on the radar as their kids are leaving for college.

I used to get somewhat concerned about the remaining time I have left, but I must have somehow come to terms with it. I look back on the last 25 years and think of all that has happened. It feels like both just yesterday and “damn, that was forever ago”. The next 25 may feel just as long and be just as full. I’m ok with that. I’m just trying to enjoy the ride.

Oh lawd Jesus, this probably is the future.

It doesn’t. The naming and shaming is claimed to be a deterrent. But the juicy gossip is too loved by the law-abiding folk for the elected Sheriff to consider not doing it.

There is an imbalance here. What would y’all do if you were on your own? Forget appointments and family birthdays? That you were allergic to penicillin and have a screw in your wrist that you need to tell the MRI tech about?

I’d like to make room for dumb movie quotes too, but the only ones that stick are the ones the hubby quotes like his language is based on Darmok at Tenagra.

Tree frogs like to hang out on my windows at night (aka the bug buffet). And the cats absolutely love to watch them. If one gets within arm’s reach, they will try to swat it, not realizing of course the frog is on the outside.

One time a frog did sneak inside and found out that the air conditioning wasn’t worth the death wish.

If I’m lucky, something will come along to distract me long enough so that I forget I’m uncomfortable.

My husband & I call the ones out front like that “radar detectors”. We are watching.

Also, we can’t have actual radar detectors here. Waze reports are a godsend.

Now it makes sense why cocktails have little umbrellas! They’re summoning spirits!

I think it’s mostly crabgrass lol. I let the yard mostly do what it wants to, but I keep it trimmed to not encourage rodents. It could have some actual St. Augustine and Bermuda mixed in. It’s also got wild strawberries, clover, ground ivy, carpet weed and other neat colorful weeds that I actually kind of like. The yard is too damn big to do battle with weeds and maintain a monoculture of HOA darling Kentucky bluegrass, so when you can’t beat 'em, join 'em.

Spreeder! I love it!

The top of it is about 4 inches/ 10 cm in diameter.

I think all kids should be cautioned to not believe a single thing their uncles tell them.

That’s just like your opinion dude

(maybe I prefer crockery)
