Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'
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.
Got home a bit ago from the farm. I stayed after training to sort out some stuff for our fundraiser at the end of the month. Somehow I'm handling the paper products for the event in addition to coordinating the volunteers.
Now I'm carless until tomorrow evening. I'm plowing through the volunteer paperwork this evening and snuggling with the puppy. I plan on sleeping in as late as possible tomorrow.
Congrats Jessica and family. May the closing process be as smooth as possible.
Skipping and skimming about 400 posts. (Well really just skipping). I got to try new Trader Joes' dill pickle flavored popcorn. So good I did not buy any for fear I'd treat the 5 portion bag as a convenient single serve. Given ita's love of sour stuff like salt n' vinegar chips, I'll bet she would have liked it.
does the dance of getting an Amazon Prime code. WOOHOO!
Also, reveal more about this alleged house.
It's a 4-br cape in Ossining, about a mile from the Metro North station (real estate agents will say "walking distance" but because of the way the streets are shaped, it'd be a pretty long walk), across the street from a big park, close to good schools, on a corner lot with a nice backyard. No river views (it's not on a high enough hill), but it's an easy five-minute drive to the waterfront.
We've decided to let the kids have the upstairs, which means both of them will have bigger bedrooms than we will, but (1) we won't have to share a bathroom with them, and (2) they can't leave the house at night without walking past our room, which may come in handy when they're a little older.
Sounds like rest would be helpful, whether it's flu or viral.
I'm trying as best I can... I think my mom is bored though, she just announced that she wants to DRANK tonight.
Jess, that sounds great! How long is the commute to work? (I know nothing of NY geography or what rail commute times are.)

I love that! How great for the kids.
Oh, that sounds fantastic, Jess! Many fine qualities.

I am making measurable progress on my cleaning agenda. Considering adding libations to the continuing process...
Jessica, that sounds like a lovely place. I liked the look from the road.
So Dad's in hospice. And we got the banking done, and then we bought wine, and now I'm going to dinner with a friend. I have a ton of paperwork and baking to do, but I guess that's tomorrow.
Jess, I'm happy for you!
Consuela, I hope it gives you some peace.
Oh, Suela, so hard.
