Connie, much -ma to your sister.

I don't really have the experience to comment on the douchenozzle parenting conversation. My dad died when I was a baby, and it hurt to be without him, but I was always comforted by people telling me what a good father he was.

I have a friend who is recently divorced. Just as his youngest graduated from college. He regrets waiting so long, because he is afraid that his daughter has no idea what a healthy relationship looks like ( his son , the younger one seems more perceptive.)

and ma~~ to your sister, connie

but I don't know how she'd feel about my talking about it with my circle.

There's always "I have a friend who had chemo and I can ask her if she has any suggestions."

Ha, ya Calli. I'm over it. Forgive, but not forget. Life is too short to hold a grudge.

For Erin (and others who need it): [link]

it just helped me past a moment of "I am a leaf on the wind..." here at work, so I thought I would share.

Thanks mmnis, I've sent it along to a few people today

Connie, lots of ~ma to your sister. Fuck cancer.

Omnis, I'm glad your "leaf on the wind" moment wasn't followed by a horizontal pile-driver rock.

Love y'all. Off to work, now.

Fuck cancer.

Fuck cancer.

A while back, we were talking about apples and applesauce. I have two oldish apples that should be used. Are they good for sauce, or should applesauce be made from fresher apples? Anyone have a recipe/suggestion (or is it something basic like cut up apples, add water and sugar, simmer)
