Can you get out of it? I can't imagine how hard that must be for you.
I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

So I'm enrolled in ACA for next year.
Suzi I'm hoping of the best and that this falls under a professional working with a dog. If she was at the store she may have been on the clock without doing any training.

If we didn't go, my kids would be devastated as would my niece and nephew. We're going - I just have to try to contain my anger and sadness. Compromising myself, as usual.

I was thinking send the kids and feign a migraine.
I wasn't going to have to worry about politics over the holiday, but my inlaws didn't have anyplace to go, so they're coming to Mom's. Hopefully we can avoid any talk of it.

Ann, that's a ferret.
My philosophy with my right-wing niece (works for a right-wing lobbyist) has long been, "I won't start anything, but I reserve every right to finish it." Although if you go that route, you might want to pass the word through a third party.

My mom and brother have warned my dad. I believe my brother's words to him were, "DO not say get over it or move on unless you want it to rain fire." I've told my wife that if he says something offensive, I'm getting up and leaving the room and we will head home asap.

I'm glad your mom and brother have your back there, gc.

Yeah, I think my dad is smart enough to not get into it but my brother has devolved into an honest to God internet troll and I am super glad he isn't home for Christmas because I don't think I couldn't scream at him for for being a racist misogynist asshole.
