All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That's awesome Brenda! Yay!!
Went dancing, which was fun, but accidentally got kicked in the toe, and ripped up my nail. OW OW OW. I feel like a wuss but OW.

brenda, that's adorable. Reminds me a bit of the cottage my folks had in New Hampshire when I was growing up: it was on a canal as well, with a big back porch. I love the deck overlooking the water, that will be lovely in the summer.

Oooh, looks like the 8 hour standoff on Lake Shore Drive is finally over. What a mess.

Ouch, meara! I've had a big toenail torn in its nail bed. Hurts like hell! (lost the toenail too)

Hip still giving me trouble. While not in agony trouble comes and goes. Extremely difficult to put on shoes and socks. When pain peaks tough to take stairs. Definitely calling doctor as soon as they open. Occasional childish scream or yip when pain takes me by surprise.

I hope you get quick diag and relief.
Work isn't opening its doors until 10 at the soonest. I didn't pick up the laptop because 1) DENIAL and 2) I was supposed to start swapping machines today, so needed a clean backup. There's a lot more snow out there than I expected.
At this point, I'm not going to even try hard. My only true goal shall be to make half-price margarita night tonight. I'm so fucking over winter.

Congrats, Brenda!
I hope your hip feels better soon, Typo Boy.
We had just enough freezing drizzle to make things treacherous but not enough to close anything. It's supposed to be on and off rain and low-30s all day, dipping lower after sunset. So tonight I'm expecting a glorious display of amateur drunks on ice. A good night to stay in.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Woo hoo, brenda! Exciting!
Jesse, we are doing gardening this year using minifarm box
Ooh, that looks perfect. My problem is, I look at that and think I could make a box myself for less $$ than that. Would I ever? Odds are slim. Would it actually be cheaper? I have no idea. Due to the fact that I have never built anything!!
