I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Stopping at Falling Waters on the way back tomorrow because architecture.

Because architecture is a fabulous reason.

Yesterday and today I deeep deeeeep cleaned. Which is really gross in this much humidity. But, dang, I should do this more often.

I need a shock collar to train my brother that sending out basically distress calls the second he can't find someone in the family he wants to talk with. At least clearly state that you just can't get a hold of them instead of "have you talked to X today?" Because I can catastrophize too, buddy. I was napping when the text came in. Clearly not now.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Steph, I agree. What annoys me is that the location of the mulch deposit wasn't my decision, and that there was nothing I could do about remedying it without a week or two lead-time, but I still was the person on the grounds having to deal with the frustration of the renters, trying to be diplomatic about a mess that I didn't make and couldn't possibly solve to anyone's satisfaction. And will probably have to deal with the ED's annoyance once he gets wind of the the wedding parties annoyance.

The rest is me just trying to make myself feel better about my own helplessness.

Now tagless for your comfort.

"Adirondack chair" is my brain's default answer to "going to stretch out and read outside not by a pool".

I want a zero gravity lounge chair something fierce.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Costco. I got one end of season last year for like 25 bucks.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I just took down the baby gate, and posted it on Freecycle!

I feel like I got my house back, but with extra dog.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, I don't think you're taking the right lesson from lunch: NO BEETS.

That's just wrong. Really I want all beets for lunch.

Because books.

I've never had anything but canned beets as a child, and even now the memory makes me nauseous. I guess fresh ones are better?

So Dita's good with Charlie now? Or goodish?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I don't find a great deal of difference between canned beets and fresh. I like 'em both. Pickled is different, of course. But still tasty, for me.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Beets = yum.

Canned are overcooked like everything canned, I think.
