Thrive to spite them

I think I used Yahoo groups but I can't remember.

msbelle I would be doing the same in your shoes.

So tonight the low is going to be around 47. It's currently 70 something (I think maybe) and Matthew's mom is freaking out. she's always been cold natured and she now is anemic so she is freezing all the time . She just moved from Iowa and I have no idea how she survived.

Currently she has 2 space heaters going (there's no central heat so that is the heat source) in her room, she's wearing a jacket and long sleeve shirt AND she has her electric blanket on. I think some of this is to make sure her room is really warm when the tempeature drops.

She bought a clock with a thermometer and barometer for the living room right now it's in the 70s and she was saying we should turn on some heat so it would be 80.

I like the house to be on the slightly cold side so I am hoping we can come to a compromise in the living room so neither matthew and I will be roasting. We are both in short sleeves and shirts.

I'm pretty sure we will be able to warm the whole house up just based off her room.

Some of fandom was in yahoo groups before Livejournal. Pretty sure I don't have anything there now.

Askye, this opens up some holiday gift ideas for Matthew's mom, at least. Maybe this? [link]

Our wings are not tired.

Heartbroken over the news this morning that Elijah Cummings has passed. Truly one of the good ones.

Punishingly Intricate

Yeah, I'm pretty upset about that.

I'm sure the Baltimore community is even more devastated than the rest of us. A real loss.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Absolutely.

And I am road tripping again. Off to NY to close up the camp for winter.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I should not have had that iced tea with dinner. Better have coffee now to compensate.

Safe travels, Laura!

I'm sitting at home waiting for a plumber to come to give us a quote for re-piping the house.
