We get to have a potluck lunch, at our office, on a workday, with Christmas music on the stereo and usually some kind of arts/crafts thing one of the younger folks thinks up (coloring pages mostly)...no drinks, super fun :-/

Kids where I live don’t trick or treat at all...last year we had...2...

99% of my packages get stuck at the UPS shipping center in Sioux Falls...I need to get some of these free months!

It’s not you.

You don’t even need a lawyer if you don’t have anything complicated. You can find examples of wills online (or use Legal Zoom or the like), print it out yourself and take a witness to a notary. Just be sure to file it somewhere that it can be found...where I live you can file it with the clerk of court where you live,

Are you me? What is with the “save the box”? I have soooooo many boxes in the rafters of my garage...I am pretty sure that if we ever move I can find another box to put the Xbox in honey...

In my experience (see my previous post) you can sell the house (probably for less than it is worth) to someone who wants to gut it and start over if the exterior is in decent shape and it is in a decent location. Otherwise what I learned on “Hoarders” is they get torn down :-(

I am sorry you are dealing with this. I have no advice, just sending you internet hugs (if you want them). We had to go through my mother-in-law’s house after she died...I have never seen so many empty boxes and Avon items in my life...we tried for years to get her to clean up, but she would never let us...

I don’t blame you. I have a coworker who uses an insulin pump and he said that last time he flew the TSA broke it... (I don’t know enough about them to know how or what)...

I second this...I never used to get a flu shot (my mom had me convinced of the “the flu shot gave me the flu” myth) and then I got the flu...OMG...out of work for a week, miserable and wished I would die...I have never skipped a shot since! My husband still won’t, when I got it he went and got Tamiflu right

this is totally a thing...just the other day my sister (adult) goes to my mom and says, hey um, I found something in (brother)‘s closet that I am pretty sure is meth...mom says...”what were you doing in his closet?”...like she is the bad person for being in his room...the denial is strong with this one...

Forgot to put mine away (late at night). Woke up in the morning and it was gone...realized the dog must have taken it (which is just....all by itself), so I ran down to the basement hoping to find it before my son woke up...I was too late...
