Almost 39 here. Your 30s will be much better than your 20s. You finally stop trying to be an adult & realize you ARE an adult & can do whatever you want. Happy (upcoming) Birthday & rock that aerial yoga! Have a blast!

My dad died when I was 12, in 1991. I remember him as so so funny, a great artist & woodworker; & thinking him kissing mom in the kitchen was so gross! It does get easier, but sometimes nostalgia is a bitch.

Pretty sure they already exempted themselves from that :-(

You’ve made a great start & it’s going to look great as long as you love it & use it. I get the hallway door situation too, ugh. No rugs for me.

Hi there, long time reader. As an interior designer, I love the color combos! My only advice would be - a bigger rug if you can (I know they’re so expensive). It should anchor (go under) the sofa at least. Congrats on your new home! Thanks for salvaging the MCM look :-)

Money doesn’t buy taste, as the saying goes!

I cannot control my disgust & rage! I need a damn kitten.

I signed as Ivanka!

I was informed they did not do anything involving pregnancy, including the abortion I desperately needed. They were lovely & referred me somewhere that could help me, even though I had to go to 3…

Daniel Dale from The Star in Canada fact-checked throughout the campaign, & has resumed his task. You can find him on Twitter! He’s asked for US help in calling out Trump lies, as fact-checking that ass is not his full time job.

The Land Before Time! Argh! Also Bambi & The Fox & The Hound.

Additionally, it would function as a way to learn more about other issues by reading…

It amused me to make this list:

They were. & they were awful :(

Been watching, no apologies, since 1985. I love this show!

I’m so sorry for your loss. My mom also put her oldest cat down this morning & I’m a mess. Internet hugs if you want them.

Chicago!
