'Get It Done'
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.
Happy birthday, Sheryl!
Hi, Becky. Based on your user number you've been lurking since... Wonderfalls maybe?
My taxes were the easiest they've been in decades. No 1099s, no out-of-state income. Crazy.
I would have to check, but I think I may have a discount code for the Chicago Kimpton through my employer.
Becky...you are in my neighborhood!!! I'm closer to Belleview and Wads. My son goes to the Fire Academy by you. What a trip!!!
My poor tree keeps losing limbs. My whole front lawn (small though it my be) is covered in downed branches.
The one benefit of the microscopic interest rates banks offer is less tax return paperwork.
attack that lawn before it gets too hot.
That is excellent advice.
I have never traveled for business. When I interviewed for my current job I was told occasional travel was a requirement, but there hasn't been any budget for it since then. And I haven't stayed in a hotel in my leisure time in quite a while (excepting Amsterdam where, if memory serves, we got free wifi and breakfast)
Suzi, I've been seeing your downed branch pictures. Wacky.
Hey, Becky! I'm pretty sure I've seen you delurk in the past! Happy redelurking day!
I seem to be the only one in the neighborhood losing branches. I also have one of two crabapple trees on my street. I didn't know they were such delicate trees.
OK! Fit my stuff, including computer, into my tiny roller bag, so I just need that and a regular purse, which is a good thing for a two-day trip. AND sorted through my sock drawer AND wiped down the sink.
There is something weirdly satisfying about wiping down an empty kitchen sink.
Happy birthday, Sheryl!
Dana, I hope you can get some relief for the migraine. I can't imagine two weeks of even bearable-level pain.
The "sparking joy" is supposed to be about things, yes; but I prefer William Blake's rule to Marie Kondo's.
If you want a golden rule that will fit everybody, this is it: Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.
So much this. I mean, my toaster doesn't "spark joy" but I certainly like what it does for me.
I did my taxes for the first time all by myself! And it was not that hard! I'm more than a little ashamed this is the first time, but now I'm a pro, I guess.
This was actually the bathroom, although I did the kitchen this morning! I love doing the bathroom sink because it looks so clean after.
