I would like some new clothes I don't have to do anything to get!
A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So sorry to hear about the rough times for our mamas! I hope the bureaucracy and the boy both improve and make things easier for you both.
I just got off the phone with Mom--she had a garage sale, and the biggest hit was her dog! One woman just sat down at the edge of the sidewalk and played with Millie for fifteen minutes. Her friends asked if she wanted them to come back for her, and she was tempted. I told Mom there was a reason bulldogs are so popular in advertising; everyone thinks they're adorable.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I spent the day weeding through clothes as well. I have 4 big garbage bags of clothes to go to goodwill, plus about 20 or so pieces I am going to see if anyone wants before they go to goodwill, plus I did some AWESOME shopping in the guestroom closet.

I feel jealous of all you cullers. But not enough to do it myself.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
The most ridiculous bleeping I've encountered is Dynamite Hack's "Boyz in the Hood," which, in some radio edits, includes the line "I reached back like a pimp and I slapped the ho. "

“Not dead yet!”
I just gave myself my first pedicure in ages. Using my first Nubar polish. It's pretty, not quite as intense as I thought it would be, but still pretty. Might make a nice accent color over something else, since it's an iridescent.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Barb, many of the Nubars need at least three coats. Some need four. Sheers? Can go higher. But make sure you used at least three. It's a significant difference with Nubars.

I did do three coats on the big toes, Cass and noticed that it definitely deepened the color. And since it is a sheer, when I next use it, I'll definitely go up to four or more. For the moment though, it comes off as a nice neutral sort of shade with some glitter.

I got one of those ridiculous upside down tomato planters. It's kind of ugly. May move it to the back and get another hanging basket. But I planted that and the impatien and a ___ and realized I'd reached the poor decision making side of hunger :a few strawberries and a bite of someone else's muffin are not sufficient fuel for a day involving market, 3 mile walk, 1.5 mile swim and gardening. So inhaled an empanada and I'm too tired to make salad so I'm eating spinach from the bag and strawberries.
I've got dirt and glitter everywhere (discovered the bottle of soap I took to the pool is glittery. )
