"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Aunt J is rallying. She's awake and talking. Every time we count her out, she surprises us. Of course, she's still very ill.

Oh good, I'm not the only one. I swear, I must be part dog, as my body feels like it's aging faster than most humans.

I'm sorry that you deal with the same thing, but it is nice to know I'm not alone.

I didn't manage to get to the library bookstore in time, but I did make it to the deli and the farmer's market. Good news is my local deli is carrying organic chicken now. I like it when my little town gives me more reasons to not have to leave it to do errands.

It doesn't to me. This pedophile lurking behind every bush mentality I think is incredibly damaging.

I tend to agree with this. Two year olds being changed in public seems like a pretty common thing to me, pretty much any child still in a diaper shouldn't be a big deal, imo, and calling the cops is more than a bit ridiculous.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I get this, too.

Just talked to my dad again. He says my mom is doing fine, and they're keeping her overnight at the hospital tonight. He said she was falling asleep, though, so I can't talk to her until tomorrow.

Sleep is probably good. Glad she's recovering well.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Glad she's doing all right, Hil.

Thanks. If all goes according to plan, she'll be released from the hospital tomorrow around noon.

Glad she's doing well. I feel like I know your mom a tiny bit from seeing FB posts. ~Ma-ma to her.

Our wings are not tired.

Good to hear your mom is doing well, Hil.

What the world needs are more beaches where I can take off my suit and shower off and change without issue. More nude beaches I say!!

That aside said, people that have an issue with 2 year olds being changed in public are ridiculous. When mine went to the beach older than that we showered them off and changed them before heading home. This is a preferred plan when sea lice is an option. They swam naked in our home pool until they got old enough to develop some modesty. Well one did anyway, Bobby never developed modesty and will still jump in naked. Seriously, he has nothing we haven't seen before. Only his immediate family is around and we aren't offended.

eta: I strongly suspect that both of them have gone skinny dipping with friends too at some point or place in time.
