Thanks! I was wondering if my monitor was off kilter, I see it as a slight blue undertone, too.

What a beauty! I love a subtle tabby.

It’s like she transformed herself from a parrot to a pigeon.

I haven’t seen my bra since my grandmother’s funeral in 2005. I assume it’s still tucked away in a drawer, just in case. I often wear a long scarf with the ends hanging down for “coverage”.

“I’m rubber and you’re glue.”

That sounds extremely serious. Is there any way to be seen by a different doctor in a different hospital, preferably soon-ish? I hope you heal quickly.

I just gave all my vinyl to my 19 year old son and he was delighted to have them. Another triumph of packrattery.

Congratulations for having a husband who celebrates “birthday week”!

Me too! I guess I’ll have to try harder?

I’m sending thoughts of love and comfort to you right now. I know you’ve weathered tough times before and you can make it through this one. Stay strong.

NOTHING is as important as that cat on your lap. Do not budge an inch!

Same plastic surgeon maybe?

Housecleaning is really boring and hard work but it pays well, you can usually flex your schedule, and you can jam out to the headphones while you’re vacuuming. Also, high demand if you’re in a big city.

I’m feeling you on the moving! I just moved 127 miles with repeated trips in an old Volvo station wagon- I finally rented a cargo van at the end because the first of the month was coming up fast and I had bookcases too big to fit in the Volvo.
