I love that “crab bucket” description. This exactly!

This is excellent advice but I find myself feeling resentful & rebellious in these situations. I’m old now and I have a sense of humor about my initial reaction and can often mask that and adapt but sometimes I just give no fucks.

I would find this devastating and probably react the same way by reassuring with a hug in the moment or somehow letting her off the hook and then feeling it at home. So yeah, very relatable.

I’m another 1800 Pet Meds fan. I used them for years, they were always great.

I wish I could somehow grant you that. I am the same way.

I’m so sorry. I’m glad he had a good, long life. Sending internet hugs and hope tomorrow’s better.

A barfbag without Marzipan & Henri is a day without sunshine.

I’m with you too on this.

Why are you gray? You’ve been around for years non-gray, or am I crazy?

That’s completely amazing. I need to watch it twice a day as a palate cleanser for the duraton of the Trump administration.

Fine, take your star!

Mine are very juicy. I keep an old fssioned handkerchief on me at all times. Unless I forget, then im a both elbows kind of gal.

Thanks! That dress looks great. I’ll check them out.

Caretaking is hard work. Hope you get a break between. Caretaking for my mother when she needed it those last few months of her life was as good as it gets because she was nutty and funny and pretty relaxed about everything. But that is not a typical experience, and it was still hard!

I haven’t had to use tights in a decade, but back when I was in a professional office, I could rely on L’eggs Queen Black Casual Tights in a pinch, which is surprising because I have very heavy thighs proportionally. I honestly can’t remember where I bought my more durable tights and leggins. I hope you will share if…

Gaysian, where have you been? It’s good to see you. Sorry about your grandmother but congrats for her nearing the end of treatment. Hope all is well there.

I was sensible and now I’m defiant. Still driving my ‘95 civic that I bought used in 2000.

Thank you for the daily palate cleanser that is Marzipan. The pics are a joy to behold.

Yes, to every one of your points.

Do you watch Z Nation? I fucking love Kellita Smith in that.
