"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'm trying to decide if I should scrap my 2 page already written letter for a new one or if I can transition it or edit it somehow and still send it?

I'd be concerned that the tone would come through from the first letter. Probably better to rewrite it.

lisah! Congratulations! So so very happy for you!

And it's such a wonderful and oh-so-perfect story, with the romance (how lovely that he actually remembers where was the first time he saw you!), and the orange and the costumes and the funny all entangled. Oh, and the help from good friends, too.

So happy for you. And for him - he's one lucky guy.

David, the tone of the first letter is actually way more mild than I feel now. Then I was just concerned and now I'm kinda really angry. Longer story and letter here: [link]

congratulations lisa!!!!!

why have most shoes gone to a molded rubber sole that cannot be repaired/replaced? hate that.

I am so dissappointed to hear this. I drag my right foot, and was thinking about trying to get my Dansko's re-soled because the right edge of my right heel is worn down over half an inch. I feel like if I pay over $100 for shoes, they should last a lifetime, with maintenance, of course.

That seems very civil and on point. Sheesh. On the one hand - yay that Grace has caregivers that have a proprietary sense about her well being. On the other hand - WTF?! Why would they treat you like you'd cheated or done something injurious? Basically as if you were guilty of something. It's not like you're a pair of abusive, crackheads trying to scam some Social Security money by taking her home.

What the fucking fuck?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I'm with Hec. WTFF?

And because it deserves its own post: Happy engagement to the ultra-fab lisah! What a wonderful proposal story.

Oh, and Happy birthday Ginger!!!

And that is crazy, Kat! I don't understand what was expected of you in the first place, and clearly the nurses are not at all on the same page with each other if they left you along for 36 hours, and then wanted to check on you.
