She Said It

A friend made $200 per car (2 cars) renting his driveway out for Cubs games.  A nice side gig for the summer.

Everyone knows George Santos invented the question mark!

I don’t even let my almost 40 year old son eat one of my Mindy’s edibles, let alone give them to the brats that ring my doorbell out of its socket every year.

I have young ladies in my life - great nieces, family friends, etc. I do not want these girls to have a second of what we had to go through pre-Roe. It was scary, it was horrifying, it was flying away from home ALONE at 15 and being picked up by God knows who to do who knows what to you and pray that they actually take

Exactly.  I can hear half of the US saying “I’ll be damned if one of them brown bastards gets MY shot!  Annabel, get your ass up and we’ll go to CVS for our shot.”

I would watch the hell out of a Mike Holmes channel. I am currently binging Holmes Inspection and I can’t get enough of it.

My mom and all her friends wore either navy, black, or grey suits at their weddings (late 40s - early 50s in England) and oh my, they were stunners. I asked my mom if she kept hers so I could wear in 1981, but she was aghast.

My rule has always been the ac goes on Mother’s Day whether we need it or not. I have to admit I’m scared what my next electric bill will be. I have never had to run the ac all night as I have had to this year.

He’ll get a little :)

Great nephw asked my age. I said what do you think it is, bearing in mind your granny is my younger sister.  He said 70 :(  

I had my 2nd Pfizer shot Saturday.  Aside from the arm soreness and sleeping my head off Saturday and Sunday night, that seems to be it for me.  I am thrilled to be fully vaccinated!

Thats funny, because I have had the opposite experience since I have been widowed.  Men must think I’m gagging for it, because the comes ons are ridiculous.  Men I have known for decades.  I’m like, dude do you know how old we are?  I am SO done with that.

It is so hard to schedule.  I was signed up for every county and state website and I was finally able to get the shot at Walgreens (you have to be on their website at EXACTLY 6 AM) and scheduled first and second at the same time.  Hopefully when they allow children to have the vaccine they will do like when I was in

My arm was SO SORE after the first shot (Pfizer). I get the second Saturday and everyone I know has said they had the bad reaction with the second (chills, fever, etc). So I have already taken Monday off work to prepare.

I am just starting on the “just in case I die” stuff with my son. He is on my checking and savings accounts with strict instructions to never touch a penny until I am dead. He is my beneficiary on all the 401k and Roth accounts and he knows where the account and password info is stored. He hates talking about it

When my sister was 5 (younger by 2 years) she wrote MY name on the living room wall with a marker. My mother WOULD NOT BELIEVE I didn’t do it. So not only did I get punished but my mother made me apologize to my sister for lying.  Maybe that’s why we don’t get along nearly 60 years later.

I rely on the old American Bandstand review, “It’s got a good beat and I can dance to it.” Therefore, I like Cardi B. Not that I dance to her music, but I could if I wanted to :)

Come on over to Chicago for pizza. Not the deep dish crap. A lovely thin crust sausage pizza from D’Agostino’s. Everyone will be happy, I promise. You’ll freeze your ass off, but the pizza will make you happy. Happy New Year everyone.

And do not forget him mocking the disabled reporter. The most disgraceful, shocking, sickening, thing I have seen in 62 years. For that alone he deserves to burn in hell. That moment should have shown every voter in the country the kind of pig he is.
