Ok, so maybe not a cape cape. Maybe more of a long shrug with shoulder pads? Either way, wasn’t I a Betty back then?

edit: wow I really shouldn’t comment/reply before I have coffee. Anyway, yes I’ll dig a pic out and post it.

God this blue. I had TWO different dresses this shade plus one of them had a matching cape. Both were acquired to attend weddings. <shudder>

Duh!? Anyway I feel sorry for Millennials. They’ve missed so much because they were never forced to watch what was on TV (with limited channel choices) when it was on.

I agree. We were all a little naive in thinking they could handle a 3 month old on their own. As soon as my friends start talking about wanting to babysit their grandkids I’m going to remind them they may be biting off more than they can chew.

Best laid plans an all that...We bought a duplex with my In-Laws prior to our 1st little bird’s arrival, with the understanding that they would babysit full time. They babysat full time for exactly 2 days and then told us to get a nanny, something that was a financial hardship for us to do . Even when I was hatching…

Black is your basic LA uniform even for kids.

Cool! Yup, I did a micro pixie a few years ago and dyed the tips purple as it was my, then 5 yo, daughter’s favorite color. Vive les enfants!

Bravo for her for trying something new. It’s just hair, it’ll grow back. I have friends that haven’t changed their hair since high school. But then to me my hair is just a big toy that grows out of my head.

Thank you for including “sons” in your article. I’ve encountered a few well read, well educated individuals that did not realize they could get this vaccine for their sons. And yes, both my son and my daughter will be offered the vax when they’re old enough.

Yup I burn Target’s Succulent Garden from their Garden Party line in my office. Fresh, not too sweet, perfect for an accounting office.

I had no idea that “birth control pill=abortion” was a thing until I got pregnant at 40 for the first time. I got onto one of those baby boards for AMA moms and found some comments talking about this. My mind was blown and I just added it to my long list of “Things to talk to my daughter about”.

“My whole house smelled like luxury” Annnnnd that’s why I buy scented candles. I actually have a nice house with nice things in it but with a 9 & 7 year old running around, generally it smells like dried playdoh, crushed crayons, and farts.

Around $20 on Amazon is the Paddy Wax Library Collection. I’m partial to Poe but Austen’s nice as well.

Because some people don’t understand how birth control works. For example some people think birth control pills cause miscarriages and therefore those miscarriages are actual abortions. I personally think that’s nutty, but I’m just relating what I’ve read on other comment boards.

I was going Pee-Poo...

First link, item #5 made me step away from my computer for a moment...I’m sweating in an effort not to make childish retching noises.

Oh! I can’t WAIT for Xmas eve dinner this year then. I’ll be able to post a pic of my MIL’s jello mold. She does this jello mold; red jello, with canned fruit and mini marshmallows floating in it, topped with shredded coconut and it’s all done up in a crystal champagne bucket that’s bigger than my head. Every year, as…

“At that point the millenials might be able to afford to buy a home...”

She went from a mansion in Malibu to a condo in West LA, she’s broke by L.A. standards.
