Burrell, we should get together next week so I can give you my winter coat. And some caramel. And maybe lemon curd.
We should indeed, thank you! I have clothes for you, too. Well, for your kids.
And yes, surviving the day is a good goal. Turned in my grades yesterday and I feel better already. I still have a couple donation runs to make today, including a mini fridge and a microwave. Cody tried to take the fridge to work but it was too large. Turns out everyone thinks it's great in concept but no one can quite make it work.
I'd LOVE a fridge and microwave at work! But I doubt I could make it work either. And then it would just encourage me to eat me which is always an annoying and dangerous thing.
You are welcome to them, Kat. Seriously. But let me know as I was going to donate them today.
I have wrapped presents! For values of "wrapping" that include putting things in bags with tissue, but still. Everything that's been shipped here is wrapped, in order to minimize the time required to wrap all the stuff that's going to my parents' house.
I can't wrap until after I arrive at my parents' house since gifts go in my suitcase. Not really sure how I'm going to wrap that 15 lb. extension cord for my bro-in-law...
Hil,
I'm glad you are okay. This reminds me of when I was living in a midwestern state that shall remain nameless. They did not have a good history of repairing roads. Apparently although the state does save money by reducing road maintenance, it costs individuals drivers hundreds of dollars to fix damage caused by potholes, etc.
I think something similar is true for lack of salting and snow plowing.
camels for EVERYONE!
WHAT I HAVE BEEN SAYING FOR YEARS.

Although some places salt less for environmental reasons. Generally, they use more sand to make up for it.
right. sand or salt (treating roads in general)
Or in Wisconsin, cheese juice! [link]
