We became renters six years ago after three decades of home ownership. No regrets. 

The BBC politely disagrees.

That’s crazy, about the TVs. I guess it’s a testament to the resilience of children that your spouse turned out presumably sane.

If the Grifter in Chief and Melanoma think they’ll get anywhere near the kind of money the Obamas got for their memoirs, they’re going to be disappointed. But I imagine they’re looking for every source of income possible to deal with his mountain of debt. It pisses me off that we will continue to foot the bill for the …

You’ll never get landlords or banks to go along with #1. The government can pump as much money as necessary into the economy if so inclined, but Moscow Mitch thinks everyone should pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Andrew Yang’s idea of a basic income for all Americans was met with widespread derision, but it…

You goddamn socialists. /s

In the 80s/90s, outlet stuff was the same as retail and you could get some really good buys. But as outlet centers proliferated in the past twenty years, the brands started producing the direct to outlet merchandise. I’m from the NY area, and for years people would drive hours to the original outlet shopping…

Once years ago Consumer Reports compared outlet vs. retail merchandise, and surprisingly in several instances the outlet was as good, if not better, than the retail version. The one example I remember is Brooks Brothers. For years my husband bought his work suits and shirts at their outlets because their retail was…

It has become a preferred pasttime of affluent older white people. In communities like Naples, FL or Scottsdale, AZ it seems like everyone over 50 plays it. Less time consuming and easier to play than golf. Javanka seems a bit young for it. 

The exhausting part for these people is hiring and keeping track of all the help. 

I’m surprised she didn’t have a personal assistant to handle the thank you notes. 

That’s what I read too. He’s established FL as his legal residence, which means he has to spend the majority of the year there, but he can’t call Mar-a-Lago his primary residence. It should be interesting to see where he ends up. Hopefully in a nice cozy federal prison cell.

So the sooner he drops dead the better it is for taxpayers. I wonder if Melania and Barron still get Secret Service protection when he does.

Not that it’s anything I care to contemplate, but it’s probably been a decade since that happened. I’m sure she’s got her prison break planned and ready to execute on Jan. 21st.

Let’s not forget Herman Cain, who went to a Trump rally and was dead a month later. 

And didn’t his mother drive him there? Like she was taking him on a playdate? 

God that feels like a lifetime ago. 

And stick with unbreakable ornaments. Picking shards of ornament glass out of the rug or your foot is unpleasant. 

We don’t know the whole story. Maybe she’s got meddling, manipulative in-laws or maybe they’re perfectly lovely people. To say she’s ungrateful seems a bit judgmental. 

Especially places like local food banks, animal shelters, etc. So many are hurting financially from the pandemic and could use the $25, $50 or whatever your relatives would spend on something you really don’t need or want.
