Have you received a renewal notice? They’re saying on the site that they are extending the expiry date until further notice, so it sounds like you are fine, even if the expiry date is approaching. 

Oh my god! Congratulations!

Excellent!

To anyone who occasionally posts on GroupThink or other smaller kinja platforms; G/O will be closing down the sub blogs, so you might want to head over to any that you comment on, to see if there are exit plans, and bookmark any sites. GT has a bolt hole, but it needs to be opened up for new members, and we’re trying…

Krispy; it looks like the sub blogs are being shut down, and since you sometimes comment on GT, you might want to head over and look at my “man the lifeboats” post for escape plans. Right now, the reddit site isn’t open to new members, but we’re trying to contact the mods so that we can get people in. I don’t want to…

That’s really scary! I’m glad you two are okay! Did they catch the other driver?

Awww; poor thing.

I think that although he would have liked another 4 years of Trump, he got his money’s worth; destabilizing not only the U.S., possibly for years to come, but also the entire world order. And that will take years to repair, if it can ever be done.

And we’ve met the new neighbours and they are lovely.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! FROM CANADA!!!

Escape to the Country for me; real estate in English villages and adorable hobbit houses that date to the 1600's in some cases, barn conversions, and the occasional apartment in a castle or stately home. For presenters, look for Alistair, Nikki, Jules or Jonni; they seem to have the best selection.

Physical stuff is good for keeping you occupied. 

My previous dog was a very tall black Lab cross, and before I got him a handsome red raincoat, I would tie a green garbage bag around him to keep him dry, and the first time I did it, I got a bit of side-eye from him, but he basically said; “I don’t know where you’re going with this, but let’s try it”. 

That is hilarious and adorable.

That reminds me that I haven’t checked it today ...

Talk to a lawyer before talking to him; protect yourself and your assets if need be. You’ve said that he doesn’t respect your boundaries, so don’t expect him to expect the financial boundaries either. You may want to set up a separate bank account, if you haven’t already, and have some safe money that he can’t touch,…

I hope you’re planning to get your wifi set up quickly so you can let us know how it’s going.

True, except that she wants to express gratitude; maybe purring and rubbing her cheeks on things?

Congratulations! It’s all very exciting! Painting before you move stuff in is great, if you can manage it. I love the smell of latex paint.
