Thanks, Tom! I'll put it up.
What? She killed 'em with mathematics. What else could it have been?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What makes it all ok though is that yesterday I bought a metal rooster for my backyard. It's not a 6' tall Beyonce, but a 1.5' tall one I've named Beauregard. He makes me happy.
There is a garden "art" store near our place that sells all of those things, including metal roosters TALLER than the 6' Beyonce. Flocks of them. I giggle every time we go past the place.

Jesse, Memere will move to an apt also? Maybe you should buy it? Rent to own?

Uh, Memere will die. Presumably. At some point. She doesn't mean immediately, just eventually -- especially (I imagine) if my father can't live at home. We'll see what happens, but she definitely does have a point.

That's awesome, msbelle. I've a fondness for the turtles and trolls and whatnot made from old metal helmets.
Slept a lot again today. I am SO over this. It's been a week, possibly 2, but with lower-grade symptoms. My sinuses are getting in on the act. Not infectiony, just full.

Because books.
I hated that my mom and dad sold their house, but they are so much happier not having to deal with the lawn and the repairs and all of it. It really was a great idea for them (although I worry that they chose a third-floor walk-up).
msbelle, slounge like the wind. Or the lazy breeze maybe.

Yeah, that's what she was talking about. Which makes sense, really.

Yeah, my parents like to go check out the local retirement homes/nursing homes because they get a free meal while the place is showing off. Oy.
But they do probably need to move at some point...but then they'd have to get rid of their STUFF...at least the current place is all one story.

Hahaha! I cannot wait to be old enough to do that -- I am all about the free meal and looking at places to live! In a casual manner.

My mom and dad are talking about moving the W/D upstairs because the basement stairs are steep as hell, but I don't see either of them moving, unless something catastrophic happened, or unless my dad goes first.
My mom wouldn't do well alone in the house; she'd have to have one of us stay there/with us, and there'd be blood within a month. I love my mom, so does my sister, but there's NO WAY we'd be able to live with her, unless needs truly, desperately dictated.
