Vera sad. Trying to be fiscally responsible as I prep for home ownership. Cutting karate, curbing my Amazon habit, being smarter about cooking at home versus going out, no vacation, no going to LA for the memorial when that gets scheduled, trying to get down to as minimal while maintaining my sanity.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
gotcha. That is good though. Cheering for you.
I am just a week in on trying to not eat out so much and I think my stubbornness may be my saving grace on this. Well and the fact that by signing up for karate, a lot of that money is already spent, I have to save to now.
Next step it to get moving on selling what I can. no progress there.
I opened up discussions with mac about moving to a duplex/townhouse nearby. There is one on the market right now that would be perfect, but now is not the right time. If I can keep moving in the right direction, maybe in a year it would be good. Would have to be a purchase based on selling or renting out this place. The move would be so we'd be closer to his school, walking distance until graduation, also these duplex/townhouses have smaller yards so less upkeep and would be easier to resell if I were to move. You know thoughts.
A townhome would be a fantastic fit for what I'd like. Less yard would be a big plus. I kill cacti.
so you can move here? GREAT!
I've always thought of SA as SA. I think when I met you f2f I wondered briefly if I'd need to call you by some other name, and then Plei introduced you as SA and that was that.
I feel terrible tonight, not sure if I'm getting sick or just worn out or what. Tummy hurts, head is fuzzy. But I promised a friend (old college friend of mine who now lives in upstate NY) that I'd read a story of hers, so I'll do that and then bed.
so you can move here? GREAT!
I do wish you lived closer. I would invite you over for wine ALL THE TIME. And Maria too, she'd be over as well.
I also think I remember your Stor from World Crossing. I pretty much remember everyone like that- Victor is a chef, Jesse is a cowgirl, Dana is Elijah Woods etc.
Who was toasting with a glass of champagne?
teleportation would be so handy.
We had to explain that SA's name is, in fact, SA to Lilly.
I'm not sure why we had to explain that, but SA was there and can confirm that this came up.
I should note she's known SA, what, her whole life?
Dana is Elijah Woods
I loved that Stor. Wasn't Matt Lindsay and his evil hand?
