'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
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.
Okay. Going out on Friday night, back on Monday AM.
The fact that he chose to have me come in I think may be indicative of his mental state - either not enough spoons to go, or to deal with the whole fam. But I think it's actually better this way in terms of really talking.
Oh, you're right. I'd forgotten about those.
Good, I hate it when I remember things that couldn't have happened! That was a seriously cool old car.
brenda, sounds like best outcome. May it go well.
Oh Pix, how soon will you know? That poor pup, I am so glad she has you and Drew.
brenda, I am sorry to hear of your brother's struggles but I am so glad he responded to your text! And that you can get out there.
Today I brought a sandwich to work that I'd made--I haven't done that in ages. It's turkey and pastrami and swiss cheese on sourdough bread.
I pronounce it 'nummy'.
Darby and I are out getting sushi before I try to refocus on work.
Much ~ma to you, brenda, and to your brother. And puppy~ma to Pix and Drew.
We spent the morning sorting out the car stuff, which meant figuring out what we need to do to turn the Malibu into a reasonable facsimile of a primary car, and deciding to bring home the van and await for either a used transmission to show up or trade it in for a reliable vehicle. Buying a new car will move up on the to-do list, but knowing us it will take a month or so. Please God not six.
I told him either he was coming to us or I'm coming to him for his birthday. ("Um, okay. Can I have an hour to decide?")
Go you, Brenda. Hugs and support, I'm sure it will be tough even if he's just feeling down, and not as bad as his wife thinks.
And good luck to the puppy, Pix!
We are at the rescue's vet clinic now. She may have pneumonia. Not a good sign.
Puppy does have pnemonia and is staying at the vet at least tonight. She tested positive for distemper, but the test indicated that it was low enough that it could be residue from her first vaccination. We will know more tomorrow.
Poor puppy.
ION, the Lazy, Stupid, and Godless group over on Ravelry is a source of much joy.
