Happy 3rd birthday to Mr. S! I hope he has a wonderful time!
Jinx? If you and Dreg have been using my moisturizer again I'm going to have to rip off your scaly- hey, what's the deal with your face?

Our wings are not tired.
They've named the boat "Brexity McBrexitface".
Much more amusing that the Brexit situation!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
They've named the boat "Brexity McBrexitface".
That is brilliant.

This afternoon, I start as my parents personal tour guide. Have sat & Sunday tours booked, but all else is on me. Wish me lots of patience. I get to answer the same questions over& over& over cause mom's memory & dad insists he's just going with the flow (spoiler: he doesn't!)
But it's been otherwise good. I doubt there'll be another trip like this; really think it is getting to be too much for my mom to cope with. So there is that.
Now I need to see if the lunch restaurant has my mom's jacket or if she left it elsewhere. PJ left this morning & left hers for mom, so not a problem, but....

Of course they did.
sarameg, I hope the trip goes well. I was sort of a tour guide/support for Dad a couple of times after Mom died. While it was challenging, I have some great memories from it.

Of course you were.
That place is super cute, sarameg. Man, I would like to get back to Iceland.
Zero inclination to do work today.

That place looks adorbs, sarameg, especially the window detail.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I drove to lunch, ate, drove back, and the fifth set of the Wimbledon's men's semi is still going on.
I suspect there are a lot of journalists flashing back to the 70-68 match.
