'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

That sounds like a great idea, Sophia!

Project Find My Birth Certificate went through a bunch of shelves yesterday, and I found interesting things like my Franklin Planner circa 2007, when I was laid off, so that entries stop mid-month. That was an excellent approach to work, since I had a to-do list that I updated manually and spent my first few minutes at work copying over the undones and adding the new from my overnight email, et cetera.

Another couple shelves today...

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I have to say, this Aidan thing is amazing! I am running around gathering things and cleaning so he can take everything out while he is here. Not sure what I will do when he goes away to college (he is a senior and looking at forestry school)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Sophia, ask him if there is another senior or rising senior who is a friend who could use the money.

That's a great idea. So much cheaper than a maid service, because I don't mind, or even like cleaning. It is the picking up and the garbage that gets me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What I really want to do is call a repairman to tell her that her oven is OK to use.

That seems like a great gift!

Wrote my church notes! (Didn't go to church, but details, details.)

I would love someone to arrange things to be fixed for me. It's not even the paying for it, it's more the finding a person and checking if they're good or priced well or whatever and then getting them to call you back and find a time and and and....ugh.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Mr. S was up early today, despite not having gone to sleep until after 9 last night. He's been a real joy today, as expected.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

I don't even know what to do about my income tax when I filed. I am feeling like a failure and like a tax cheat right now and very guilty.

I wouldn't worry too much about it given who in the government is a tax cheat.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I have failed at gift shopping so far this season. I've had multiple migraines and then the flu since ACC & Santaland opening but it still feels like failure.

I'm at a loss on ideas for my brother & SIL. And I need b'day and Christmas for my 20yr old nephew.

Do any Colorado folks know anything about this puzzle room in Ft Collins [link] ? My college BFF moved there over the summer and I'm considering a gift cert as a family gift.
