I take it the car doesn't drive anymore? Because yeah, if you can't donate it, I'd sell for salvage

We donated 2 cars that weren't drivable and took the tax write-off (and didn't have to deal with getting the cars anywhere). My car was only a couple of hundred but we wrote off Bob's car for a fair bit.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh ugh, Jess.

ION, my mother went to some anti-racism conference, and ended up sitting next to - and doing a breakout activity with - Peggy McIntosh!

it's a sweatshirt dress with a hood and pockets and extra-long sleeves that I plan to live in this fall (if it fits).

I can't find this on eShakti (their filtering and search are pretty terrible, evidently) and I am really intrigued. It sounds right up my alley workwear-wise. Linky???

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Stuff on eShakti goes out of stock all the time, sadly. I usually post here about a dress, think about it for a few days, dither, forget, and then it's gone.

Oh, wait, I found one but it's a maxi dress which is not for me (but would look cute and cozy on someeone not me, I'm sure!)

I theoretically like eshakti but their dresses have not fit, even custom, a couple of times, which bums me out.

I'm in the midst of planning my halloween costume and ended up getting this dress: [link] It's for a La Catrina outfit and I think the dress is cute enough to keep as a dress but I sort of want to add skulls as buttons?

Ooh, that dress is fantastic.

Got my bed delivered at the new place. I feel very old and out of shape, because the delivery guy *jogged* up the steps with the mattress. Granted, it's a twin bed, but still!

Right? It'll be perfect for for a lower key Catrina: [link] I have a big hat that I am going to do up and the dia de los muertos make up.
